Prison

Tents were set up in the yard of San Quentin State Prison to treat inmates with COVID-19. At least 1,011 cases of the virus have been reported.

Michael Cohen, the former personal attorney and ‘fixer’ for President Donald Trump, was released two years early from prison over coronavirus concerns. He will serve the remainder of his three-year sentence at home.

The response from the federal Bureau of Prisons to the growing coronavirus crisis in prisons has raised alarm among advocates and lawmakers about whether the agency is doing enough to ensure the safety of the nearly 150,000 inmates serving time in federal facilities.
