弗吉尼亚州新任监狱监察员安德里亚·萨彭 （Andrea Sapone） 在就红洋葱 （Red Onion） 和沃伦斯岭 （Wallens Ridge） 等设施的监狱条件进行了激烈会议后，被护送离开里士满的一个公共论坛。 Virginia’s new prison ombudsman, Andrea Sapone, was escorted out of a public forum in Richmond after a heated meeting over prison conditions at facilities like Red Onion and Wallens Ridge. 这次活动旨在为新设立的惩戒监察员股收集投入,引起了倡导者和家庭的批评,他们以虐待、保健差和极端气温为由提出批评。 The event, meant to gather input for the newly created Corrections Ombudsman Unit, drew criticism from advocates and families citing abuse, poor health care, and extreme temperatures. Sapone是2024年9月任命的,负责监督独立的监狱检查,并进行了三次不事先通知的访问,但由于投诉量大和管辖权限制,她的办公室面临着挑战。 Sapone, appointed in September 2024, oversees independent prison inspections and has conducted three unannounced visits, but her office faces challenges due to high complaint volumes and jurisdictional limits. 尽管受到干扰,但监察员办公室仍坚持致力于公正的监督和系统改革。 Despite disruptions, the ombudsman’s office maintains its commitment to impartial oversight and systemic reform.
