Mainline prisoners moved to San Quentin’s West Block must clean the filth, do without power, heat

December 9, 2011

The conditions inside San Quentin’s West Block are inhumane and uninhabitable. They are in cells with no power. A lot of the toilets don’t flush. The men are trying to clean the feces off the walls themselves. There is ankle deep standing water in the showers and black mold on the walls.
