The governor\u2019s office directed questions to the prison system.<\/p>\n<p>The prison system is in the midst of high-stakes litigation that is pricey and carries potential long-term ramifications for the direction of the state&#8217;s prison system. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/justice-department\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Department of Justice<\/a> has sued the state, alleging that male prisoners are housed in violent prisons that violate the constitutional prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment. A federal judge has also ordered the state to increase prison staff in an ongoing lawsuit over prison health care.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall has had prior disagreements with the prison system. Earlier this year, he sued the ADOC and the Board of Pardons and Paroles to try to block the release of inmates to supervised release, arguing that victims\u2019 families had not been properly notified.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/alabama-attorney-general-takes-prison-litigation\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/alabama-attorney-general-takes-prison-litigation <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall is taking control of prison litigation away from the Department of Corrections and moving it to his office in their [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-62203","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
