I have learned of another death at the Women’s Huron Valley Correctional Facility. This is more than deeply troubling; it is repugnant and reprehensible.
My thoughts are with the individual’s family and loved ones. But we need more than thoughts—we need action and accountability.
Families and the public deserve answers. The women at Huron Valley deserve safety and dignity. These repeated incidents raise serious questions that cannot go unanswered. That is why I am sending a formal inquiry to the state seeking immediate answers, action, and transparency.
The Michigan Department of Corrections must immediately provide a transparent accounting of what happened, where they failed, and what steps are being taken to prevent more deaths.
