Last month, a shocking incident took place at Deerbolt prison in Durham. A batch of fentanyl, a powerful opioid, was sneaked into the prison along with spice, a synthetic drug. This dangerous mixture caused a major health scare as almost 40 prisoners collapsed within just 24 hours. One of them had to be rushed to the hospital in critical condition.
According to sources, the prison was put on a two-day lockdown after this incident. It was reported that more than 10% of the prison's population fell ill due to this harmful drug batch. The situation was so grave that the prisoner who was rushed to the hospital was on the brink of death. In fact, paperwork for "death in custody" had to be prepared as a precautionary measure.
As the news of the first collapse spread, others began to suffer the same fate. In total, 38 cases were recorded, making it one of the largest outbreaks of illness in the history of the prison. The source revealed that such a massive outbreak had never been witnessed before.
It is worth noting that the majority of the prisoners at Deerbolt are young, under the age of 21. In a recent inspection, it was found that more than a quarter of the prisoners had substance abuse problems. This highlights the severity of the drug issue within the prison.
The Prison Service has addressed this concerning incident, stating that the new government is determined to address the supply and demand for drugs in prisons. It is clear that the prison system is facing a crisis, and immediate action needs to be taken to ensure the safety and well-being of the inmates.
