Legislature panel weighs shackles on pregnant inmates
Iowa lawmakers push to codify restraints rules for pregnant prisoners with a 24 week limit and labor exceptions. Rep. Linda Miller seeks law banning shackling when a health professional requests removal after 24 weeks or during labor, while allowing leg or waist restraints with medical approval. Evidence includes a 2011 policy and testimonies from inmate Khrista Erdman and supporters and critics of codifying the policy. The DOC defended discretion in transport, contrasting with advocates calling for statutory guidelines.
