 The chair of the state assembly committee that oversees Wisconsin prisons is calling for a public hearing. Republican Representative Michael Schra of Oshkosh says it's needed after the assault on Lincoln Hills counselor Corey Pru and the disturbing deaths of inmates at Waupon Correctional Institution. I think that the legislature is definitely going to have to step up. Schra wants the hearing held at the Capitol the second week of July and hopes to hear from Department of Correction staff as well as families of incarcerated persons.
