Teen prisoner raped by inmate in Baton Rouge, infected with HIV, federal lawsuit claims

http://www.nola.com/crime/index.ssf/2018/01/baton_rouge_inmate_rape_lawsui.html#incart_2box

This is sickening! Yet another reason why prison rape jokes are NOT FUNNY!

BATON ROUGE -- A federal lawsuit claims a Louisiana sheriff's staff left a 17-year-old prisoner vulnerable to his brutal rape by another jail inmate, who infected the teenager with HIV.

The suit, filed Monday, accuses East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff Sid Gautreaux and two deputies of violating the teen's constitutional rights.

The suit says the teen met the criteria for a "high risk sexual victim" under the federal Prison Rape Elimination Act and should have remained segregated from the jail's general population.

Instead, the suit claims, the teen was transferred from the juvenile wing and attacked last February by a man awaiting trial on charges he raped a woman in 2015.

News broke in an Advocate story on Saturday that undercover sheriff’s deputies had been meeting gay men at local parks, arranging sexual rendezvous with them and then arresting them on suspicion of “crimes against nature.” No money was exchanged and the sex was going to take place in a private location, not in the park.

Also has a racist daughter.



On June 23, 2015 Gautreaux-Hall posted an image of the confederate flag on her Facebook. The caption with the photo read, “Nothing racist about it in God’s country.”
