Facing a system operating at over 100% capacity, the Idaho Department of Correction (IDOC) has begun transferring hundreds of incarcerated men to a private facility in Arizona.
On Thursday, IDOC officials confirmed that 120 inmates have already been moved to the Central Arizona Florence Correctional Complex. According to a news release, IDOC intends to transfer an additional 200 men in the coming weeks as the state grapples with a lack of bed space that has spilled over into local county jails.
