Supreme Court expands inmates rights with new discipline rules
The court's fourth prison case this week sets 24 hour written charge notice and an impartial evidentiary report, allows prisoners to present witnesses if safe, but rejects full defendant rights. ACLU criticizes the move as not far enough. Other rulings include required judge hearings for freedom suits, limited tribute for cross-examination, and juvenile sentencing cautions.
