Hes a loving boy, but hes afraid of the world. And now i know why. In the south bay Lauren Martinez, abc seven news. Now, we spoke with experts who say that if youre looking to adopt from a shelter or rescue, you should always observe and ask questions about how the animals are transported and cared for. A good question is how many animals they currently have at the facility and how many spaces do they actually have . Happening now. Search efforts are underway for a hiker who disappeared over the weekend in the Angeles National forest. A 59 year old Northern California woman disappeared saturday morning while hiking along the San Gabriel River near the heaton flats trailhead. La county sheriffs Officials Say she was with a couple of friends when she attempted to cross the river. The woman lost her footing and was swept away. It has made other hikers extra cautious.

Eight fbi agents raided a federal womens prison today in dublin. It comes after a number of former employees had been convicted of Sexual Assault on prisoners. The warden was even removed from the facility today. Abc seven News Reporter joe stone is following the story and has the very latest from the ground. Fbi agents could be seen walking into the womens federal prison in dublin monday with boxes from sky seven. They could be seen walking the premises. The feds are casting a very wide net here to look into this prison and all of the corruption that occurred there, and i think thats why they want to look at all the records and computers of the individuals at the prison, because they dont want to just rely on information from the inmates. Thats legal analyst steven clark. Hes giving his take on the situation with the troubled dublin prison. The fbi raided the facility monday as prisoners continue to come forward with sexual abuse allegations, including rape against employees and past employees, some of whom have already been convicted and are in jail. In the criminal cases, weve seen a pattern of guards intentionally targeting immigrant women. I think presuming that those women would then be deported once they were released from prison, and that would make it harder to hold them accountable. Susan beatty is a lawyer who represents victims in some of the cases. She wants outside oversight of the facility going forward. She also believes Mental Health care support should be available for victims. Monday, the warden, associate warden and prison captain were all removed from service at the dublin prison. Were also in touch with over a dozen women who have been assaulted by dublin officials and were subsequently deported and so now are permanently separated from their families and communities, clark says he wouldnt be surprised if there were more arrests in this dublin case. Any time you have what turns out to be a Public Relations disaster and a National Disgrace as to what you saw occurring at the prison, you want to get to the bottom of it to ensure that not just things at dublin are done right, but at prisons throughout the country. Theyre being handled right. The fbi and bureau of prisons have not provided details on the case or mondays search. J. R. Stone, abc seven news.
