Amnesty International writes!CCWP recieved copies of more than a dozen letters from members of Amnesty International in Sweden. Those letters are addressed to Commissioner Terhune, Governor Davis, Secretary Shalala, Bill Lockyer, Bill Clinton and other officials. They urge the officials to set up policies and monitoring programs that will ensure that the treatment of women in custody in the USA complies with international standards, that prisons and jails provide adequate physical and mental health services for inmates free of charge and specifically prohibit sexual relations between staff and inmates.We thank the Swedish AI, congratulate them on their efforts and hope to make it count even more by adding to the pressure they are exerting!
