This Event Happened in Some of the dirt is coming out.The news from the local TV station
host-216-78-10-226.lft.bellsouth.net.

Summary/Text Thursday, October 26, 2000 4 KFOR - Oklahoma City Seg. of KFOR 10PM ON CRIMEWATCH TONIGHT, WE'VE LEARNED AN OKLAHOMA PRISON IS UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE F.B.I. "" "" THERE ARE ALLEGATIONS THAT AN INMATE AT THE CENTRAL OKLAHOMA CORRECTIONAL FACILITY WAS RAPED IN MCLOUD... SHE CLAIMS SHE BECOME PREGNANT AND WAS FORCED TO HAVE AN ABORTION. "" "" "" "" AND SINCE THIS FIRST ALLEGATION... WE'RE NOW HEARING AS MANY AS 5 OR 6 WOMEN MAY COME FORWARD WITH SIMILAR CLAIMS. "" "" NEWSCHANNEL 4'S BOB FRIER IS ON CRIMEWATCH TONIGHT... HE JOINS US FROM THE NEWSROOM WITH MORE ON THE STORY... BOB. "" "" "" "" KEVIN.. WE UNDERSTAND THE F.B.I INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE THIS SUMMER. THE WOMAN WHO MADE THE ALLEGATION OF SEXUAL MISCONDUCT WAS ACTUALLY A PRISONER FROM HAWAII... SHE WAS MOVED OUT OF OKLAHOMA FOR OTHER REASONS... BUT HAWAIIAN OFFICIALS INSISTED THAT LOCAL AUTHORITIES HERE HANDLE THE INVESTIGATION SINCE THEY HAVE JURISDICTION. "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" THE CENTRAL OKLAHOMA CORRECTIONAL FACILITY IS A MEDIUM SECURITY PRISON FOR WOMEN. THE ALLEDGED SEXUAL MISCONDUCT APPARENTLY INVOLVED A STAFF MEMBER.. NOT A CORRECTIONS OFFICER. SINCE THE WOMAN IN QUESTION IS NOW A PRISONER IN HAWAII... OFFICIALS THERE COULD ONLY ALERT THE PROPER AUTHORITIES. :50 we immediately called the facility and made sure they properly investigated the allegation and we made sure they referred it to local law enforcement authorities and also informed the department of corrections in Oklahoma. OFFICIALS SAY THE INTERNAL INVESTIGATION DIDN'T TURN UP ANY EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE PRISONERS ALLEGATION... BUT HAWAIIAN OFFICIALS AREN'T TAKING THE WOMAN'S CLAIMS LIGHTLY. 12:12 we have to put credence in any allegation like this no matter where it comes from because the act itself if it has happened is extremely serious so we have to investigate these things seriously. "" "" "" "" NOW INSPECTORS ARE SENT OUT 3 TO 4 TIMES A YEAR TO MAKE SURE THE FACILITY IS DOING WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING. ASIDE FROM THESE ALLEGATIONS SO FAR WE'RE TOLD THE COMPANY THAT RUNS THE PRISON HAS HAD A GOOD RECORD. "" "" )) "" "" "" "" WE'VE BEEN TOLD A CIVIL LAWSUIT IS IN THE WORKS AND COULD BE FILED AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK. ""
