For at least 210 Florida inmates, a prison sentence turned into a death sentence due to COVID-19.
The second-highest death toll in the country for prison inmates continues to tick up. The death rate is 1.5 times the rate in Florida overall.
Currently, Florida inmates are not eligible for a vaccine.
âI know what itâs like to try to get medical care under normal conditions, so to further exasperate that under COVID conditions, itâs a nightmare,â said Susan Melendy, whose son is in prison.

While they struggle to control the narrative of the past, the future stretches out before them… I’ve never had that work out for me. Add on that what few plans they do have for the future leave most people suffering and what we’re looking at is the grinding, screeching end of the slow motion train wreck. I’m all for JD going after pelosi but it wasn’t the hill to die on. Now they’re all on vacay for lupercalia while stimulus what stimulus? and now for the next two weeks we’ll (well, people who listen to npr/msnbc will hear, I couldn’t care less) have a studious look back at what could have gone wrong with who we are as a nation (we remorselessly blow up women and children, and are exceptionally craven, but our rich people are really really rich), alongside whatever trump is doing/saying now. Personally I think it’s better to have pelosi wind up being the bagholder. The PMC is not unlike the captain of the exxon valdez,. In the case of the PMC, they’re sil
COVID-19 was the crucible that shaped our year, as everyone’s, in 2020. The pandemic caused us to shift plans, cancel travel, and work remotely. But it also inspired creativity and resulted in powerful and important journalism.
As coronavirus cases began to soar in March, our reporters immediately started reaching out to prison officials in all 50 states and the federal system to track the number of prisoners and staff who tested positive for the virus and those who died. The tracker, updated weekly, has become an essential resource for other journalists, scholars and even prisons themselves.
Beyond the pandemic, we collaborated with journalists in Alabama, Indiana and Chicago on a ground-breaking investigation into the devastating injuries caused by the misuse of police dogs nationwide. Our year-long reporting led us into this hidden world, where maulings are common and oversight is rare.
