A lawsuit has been filed by a disability rights group against the state of Pennsylvania over the treatment of inmates with mental illness in the state prison system. San-Diego-Auto-Accident-lawyer.com The suit contends that mentally ill inmates are subjected to "horrific conditions" and "unusually punished through lengthy and repeated stints in solitary confinement." Spending that much time in solitary confinement, the suit says, prevents many of the inmates from getting adequate mental health care and keeps them from participating in educational or rehabilitative programs. San Diego personal injury attorney
