“I am writing to express the mixture of disappointment, anger, and confusion I feel regarding the state s recent decision to not re-award its statewide offender health care contract to Wexford of Indiana. As the incumbent vendor for the aforementioned contract, Wexford has been a faithful and productive partner to the State for the past four years,” the letter from President and CEO Daniel Conn said. ....

After raising concerns about an alleged rodent infestation at Western New Mexico Correctional Facility in Grants, a former employee says she was made to feel unsafe and was retaliated against, forcing her to resign.
Now, with the help of the New Mexico Prison and Jail Project, social worker Nicole Ramirez has filed a whistleblower lawsuit in 1st Judicial District Court in Santa Fe against the New Mexico Corrections Department.
“This is a textbook violation of our Whistleblower Protection Act,” Steven Robert Allen, director of the New Mexico Prison and Jail Project, said in a news release. “We’re grateful that people like Nicole have the courage to come forward and report on problems they see in our prisons and jails. She should have been commended for her actions. Instead, leadership at the women’s prison retaliated against her.” ....
