(Petition) Demand Justice for Jovanie Saldana, Inmate Raped by a Prison Guard
When inmate Jovanie Saldana reported to officials that a guard at Riverside Correction Facility had raped her, she expected justice. Instead, the same authorities she'd turned to for help placed her in even further danger.

When officials at the Riverside Correction Facility learned in their investigation that Jovanie is a trans woman, they responded by placing her in a male prison. Here, she will be vulnerable to an even greater chance of s*xual assault.
Worse, according to those same officials, Jovanie's "deceptive" trans identity means that she must also be lying about her rape.
RCF officials have handled Jovanie's case with a shocking disregard for compassion, safety, and human rights. Tell them that assault victims like Jovanie should be protected, not placed in even more danger. »
Thanks for taking action!
