Grand jury blasts safeguards at Iowa facility criticized security and staffing

The grand jury condemns weak security at the Oakdale Iowa medical security facility and the state hospital system. It faults lack of metal detectors and proper screening, notes visits by inmates with outsiders, and calls for higher fences and better monitoring. Two guards with criminal records are cited, and surgical changes would require substantial funds and staff. The panel praises Oakdale for parole-related reforms while urging broader institutional tightening. An indictment for Maryina Hanson on five fraud counts accompanies the report.
