A series of government investigations have found the Federal Bureau of Prisons is dangerously understaffed and, inside its women's prisons, is an alarming pattern of abuse.

Two former correctional officers of a federal women’s prison in Dublin were charged – and pleaded guilty – Thursday to multiple counts of sexual abuse, bringing the total number of guards now charged of these sex crimes to eight – the most from any prison in the United States. Seven of those officers have either been found, or pleaded, guilty.
