Over 1K inmate fights went unreported in city jails: DOI

“The city’s jails failed to report more than 1,000 inmate fights over a three-month span thanks to their “unreliable” system of tracking violence, according to a damning report from the Department of Investigation. The seriously flawed reporting process not only hides the violence in city jails from the public, but it also puts inmates and staffers at risk, according to the report.“
