Nine NY Prisoners Dead During Guard Wildcat Strike w/ Chris Gelardi
In the past month, around 13,500 New York prison guards went on a wildcat strike. The New York Governor responded by sending National Guard troops to work as prison guards in the states prisons. Before prison guards ended their strike, reports of at least nine prisoners dying during the time of the strike hit the news. When the strike ended, 2,000 guards who remained on strike were fired by the state. We’re joined by Chris Gelardi, a reporter for New York Focus investigating the state’s criminal-legal system, who has covered this story intensively.
