Tony Wall05:00, May 31 2021 MARK TAYLOR / STUFF Rachel Edge says her son, Travis, did four months in solitary confinement at Auckland South Corrections Facility. Four years ago, an international report slammed New Zealand’s over-use of solitary confinement in prisons. Since Labour came to power, the practice has only increased, driving some to despair. National Correspondent Tony Wall and data journalist Felippe Rodrigues investigate. Travis Edge is a gang member who’s been in and out of prison most of his adult life. “My son’s a little s.,” says his mother, registered nurse Rachel Edge. “I’ve rung the police on him before, when he’s deserved it. He’s a little s., but he’s my little s., and when I see injustice being done, I fight like a pitbull.”
