The evidence of abuse would have been buried with Tony Mitchell but for the bravery of a lone corrections officer who made a video of what really happened to Tony and shared one of them. And, they fired her for exposing the truth of this abuse, there needs to be a federal statute requiring bystanders to report inmate abuse and providing statutory whistleblower protection to those who do. I sent a letter to the jail before we filed this case telling them to preserve all of their electronic recordings – if they have destroyed them then I can only imagine the horrors they have hidden.

With the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation andReentrynow under new leadership, it’s time to address the fact that this is a system that needs better oversight on numerous fronts, arizona has a history of mismanaged executions that have resulted in serious questions and concerns about ADCRR’s execution protocols and lack of transparency.

The videos were just horrific, they just showed that corrections have lost all control of Rikers. Basically, they left it to the inmates to run the jail. And Mr. Mungin is not gang-affiliated. And the people who were attacking him were all gang-affiliated.

They punch him, stomped him, kicked him in the head, used whatever was available – these hard milk crates, baking pans, tablets, whatever, and literally took turns beating him and then left him there probably for four to five minutes, then when they were done with him, they dragged him into a vestibule and then told corrections to come get him. And then corrections stood around for about four minutes before touching him and making sure he still had a pulse.

Department of Corrections needs a complete overhaul. I think people of all mentalities and people of all stripes and persuasions agree that Rikers is a mess, and when you have up to a third of corrections officers not showing up to work and leaving the inmates basically to run the jail and letting the worst that those inmates were usually the gang-affiliated inmates who reigned supreme, you're going to have violence and chaos.
