Forbes, February 6, 2021: Inmate On Home Confinement Spoke Out On Bureau Of Prisons’ Policy And Ended Up Back In Prison

“When Lynn Espejo was released from a cell in Oklahoma City to complete the remainder of her 45-month sentence with the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) on home confinement, she didn’t care about the reasons behind her release from the hell she had endured. She had spent almost 100 days in solitary confinement, 14 of those in a cell surrounded by male inmates who hurled sexually explicit comments to one of only a few females on the range. She was tired, scared of contracting COVID-19 and wanted to be home with her husband.”
