The Airway Heights Corrections Center is in the midst of the fastest and largest COVID-19 outbreak Washington state prisons have recorded.
Michelle Kuhn said her fiancé is one of 146 COVID-positive men housed in the prison’s gym, according to the department’s count.
There are four toilets for those men, the agency reported, leading to what Kuhn claimed was urine on the gym floor. The agency denies this.
Susan Biller, Department of Corrections spokesperson, wrote in an email that there’s no Wi-Fi in the gym. This means inmates cannot use their corrections-approved messaging service, JPAY, to communicate with families.
