State wins suit by male officers at women's prison
A Washtenaw County jury rejected employment discrimination claims by male corrections officers at Michigan's only women’s prison. The suit challenged a 2009 policy barring men from housing units and other areas at Huron Valley Correctional Facility near Ypsilanti, citing safety and inspection needs following a 2009 sex abuse incident and 100 million class action. The state argued the policy was necessary for prisoner and staff safety and was not discriminatory.
