NEW ORLEANS 鈥� The 老澳门开奖结果 and the 老澳门开奖结果 of Louisiana today filed a temporary restraining order in their against Oakdale Federal Detention Center.

Despite the government鈥檚 directive to reduce the population in the Bureau of Prisons-run prison, Oakdale has identified just one person for release and another person has died since a court hearing on Tuesday. According to the government鈥檚 disclosure, BOP plans to only review 鈥� much less release 鈥� fewer than 100 additional incarcerated people for release due to COVID-19.

Alanah Odoms Hebert, executive director of the 老澳门开奖结果 of Louisiana stated: 鈥淭he Bureau of Prisons has a fundamental obligation to protect the health and well-being of the people in its custody, and right now it is failing abysmally. Their woefully inadequate response is putting people鈥檚 lives and public health at risk. Stronger action must be taken now to avert a humanitarian and public health catastrophe before it鈥檚 too late.鈥�

Somil Trivedi, senior staff attorney at the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Criminal Law Reform Project, stated: 鈥淭he Bureau of Prisons鈥� plan to review less than 100 of the men currently incarcerated at Oakdale is dangerous and immoral. Men are sleeping three, four, five to a cell, less than six feet away, and many are reporting that cellmates are coughing through the night. Men, including our clients, have reported being in close contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases. A slow-moving, minimal review based on flawed criteria will do nothing to fix all of this.

鈥淭he only constitutional and medically sound approach involves expedited, responsible release of all medically-vulnerable prisoners to home confinement or other places where they can socially distance, plus appointing a public health expert to oversee internal measures to guarantee that remaining prisoners can socially distance in a clean, safe environment. This so-called plan does none of that 鈥� the consequence will be human life.鈥�
