Rikers Island, New York City's main jail complex, is currently facing severe criticism and potential federal intervention due to its dire conditions. Reports indicate that violence, abuse, and neglect are rampant within the facility. The Legal Aid Society has highlighted ongoing issues, including the frequent and excessive use of force by correctional officers against detainees, which remains a central concern despite years of federal monitoring and numerous reform attempts.
In 2022, Rikers Island saw the highest number of inmate deaths in 25 years, largely attributed to guards' absenteeism, abuse, and systemic corruption . Activists and former inmates describe the facility as a "torture chamber," emphasizing the extreme physical and psychological toll it takes on those incarcerated there.
In this episode, we take a trip to the notorious island to see what's up.
