Prison chief: New Mexico unready to close private facilities


By Phaedra Haywood, Santa Fe New Mexico |
January 30, 2021
New Mexico’s top prison official said the state could eventually end its practice of contracting with private, for-profit firms to operate four of its 11 detention facilities, but the change won’t come anytime soon.
The comments Friday by Corrections Secretary Alisha Tafoya Lucero followed an executive order earlier this week by President Joe Biden, who said the U.S. Department of Justice must end its reliance on private operators for federal prisons.
Tafoya Lucero said she’s not philosophically opposed to the idea of getting rid of privately run prisons but she doesn’t favor the state taking such action now.  ....

New Mexico Prison Chief Says Private Jails Needed, For Now
- Associated Press
New Mexico is sticking with its approach to contracting with privately operated prisons and possibly phasing them out as time and money allow. 
State Corrections Secretary Alisha Tafoya Lucero on Thursday spoke out in opposition to a bill that would make it unlawful for the state and local governments to contract with private prisons across New Mexico. 
The bill from Democratic legislators including Rep. Angelica Rubio of Las Cruces would cut loose three private prison operators that oversee four New Mexico facilities and nearly half of state inmates.  ....
