IDAHO - Idaho Department of Correction officials are still piecing together just why some prison inmates staged an uprising in a temporary cell block, but say the agency has learned a lot of valuable lessons in how to respond, and hopefully prevent, future problems. Prison overcrowding and budget cuts created conditions that helped lead to the disturbance, said Idaho Department of Correction Director Brent Reinke and Deputy Chief of Prisons John Hardison in a phone interview with The Associated Press on Thursday. Idaho's prisons have long been overcrowded, forcing officials to house more than 600 inmates in a private prison in Oklahoma. It costs more to keep inmates in out-of-state prisons then it does to incarcerate them at home, so when Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter ordered all state agencies to cut their budgets because of the poor economy, the Idaho Department of Corrections began looking for ways to bring 300 out-of-state inmates back to Boise. Reinke said they had to think creatively, but found room for some prisoners in a building on the ISCI campus that had formerly been used as an upholstery shop as part of an inmate work program. The building is essentially a metal warehouse, but it's well-insulated, well-lit and fairly nice, Reinke said. The department quickly installed two wing-style walls to separate two day rooms from the larger, dormitory-style sleeping area. Old bunks, once used when Idaho still had prisoners living in tents, were moved to the building and 199 inmates were brought in. Read more.
