Download
Last summer, a riot at the California Institution for Men in Chino left more than 200 prisoners injured. Investigators say it was sparked by tensions between black and Latino street gangs.

Others have come forward alleging the prison routinely houses prisoners outdoors. Steven’s reporting has now triggered a state investigation.
