Texas has worst record of prison sex abuse

Sexual abuse is a big problem in prison in the state of Texas. Texas, out of all the other states have a higher rate in sexual abuse in prisons. Many letters from inmates have been sent to congress telling them of the abuse that the officers do to them. One inmate,Garrett Cunningham, told his story to congress about what an officer did to him when he was on his way to the shower. He said that the officer hand cuffed him and raped him. Then threaten him saying he would tranfer him to another unit that would rape him all the time if he told anyone.
Many men and women have been sexually assualted by officers and inmates. They beg for help from adminstrators and staff, but they have gotten no help and no answers.
I honestly believe this should have been taken care of along time ago. Just because they did something that was against the law doesn't mean they deserve to be raped and being threatin to be transfered somewhere worse. Congress needed to do something about this as soon as they heard about this. Rape is rape no matter who it is. I don't care if the person was in jail for stealing they don't deserve to be treated the way they are by the staff and by other prisoners. They should have cameras at every angel watching every guard and inmate.
