A complaint against the State of Utah claims that the state and various correctional facilities have "inappropriately" released violent offenders and then failed to monitor them, thus resulting in tragic consequences.
A new lawsuit contends the Utah Department of Corrections releases violent criminals who were not properly supervised and end up committing murder and other violent crimes.
A group of Utah crime victims and their families are suing state corrections officials, alleging that violent offenders were wrongfully placed on parole or probation, then improperly monitored, allowing the offenders to commit “avoidable” crimes.
Civil lawsuits have been filed in 3rd District Court claiming serious violent acts were committed due to “gross negligence” of Utah Department of Corrections.
