Last week, the Department of Corrections confirmed it had completed the transfer of 2,464 inmates from the old Utah State Prison facility in Draper to the new prison complex in Salt Lake City. Just before the department began transferring inmates, KSL.com took an extensive inside tour of the new prison.
Utah Department of Corrections officials say the new state prison will give inmates more opportunities to better their lives once they are released. And 95% will be released.
