Description

MacLaren’s superintendent Troy Britting last month laid out in a written memo the work already underway to improve security with metal detectors at the entrance gate, reinforced perimeter fencing, periodic deployment of drug-sniffing dogs to detect and deter contraband, and increased mediation, conflict resolution programs and mentors for youth.

A Marion County grand jury report this week highlighted “cascading failures” at Oregon’s largest youth prison, including contraband getting into the facility, unaddressed gang-related violence and insufficient staff or training to address the problems.
