Please join The Virginia Defender for an urgent event calling attention to the ongoing crisis at the Red Onion Supermax prison in rural Western Virginia. Over the past months, several inmates have been forced to set themselves on fire in an effort to escape the notorious hellhole.
This will be the first public expression of concern about the ongoing crisis at Red Onion. Hear first-hand accounts of the conditions from the prisoners – and learn what you can do to help.
Check out their Facebook event for more information. For questions and other inquiries, email the Defenders at DefendersFJE@hotmail.com or call or text 804-644-5834.
For background information, read their comprehensive report from 09 November 2024 here.
