PHOENIX — A teacher at an Arizona prison was alone in a room full of sex offenders before being stabbed and sexually assaulted by a convicted rapist, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press about an attack that highlighted major security lapses at the facility.

The attack occurred Jan. 30 at the Eyman prison’s Meadows Unit, which houses about 1,300 rapists, child molesters and other sex offenders. The teacher was administering a high school equivalency test to about a half-dozen inmates in a classroom with no guard nearby and only a radio to summon help. The Department of Corrections issued only a bare-bones press release after the attack, but the AP pieced together what happened based on interviews and investigatory reports obtained under the Arizona Public Records Act.

After the last of the other inmates left, Jacob Harvey asked the teacher if she could open the bathroom and then attacked her, records show. Harvey is accused of stabbing her in the head with a pen, forcing her to the ground and raping her.

A female teacher alone in a room full of convicted rapists, what could go wrong?

In my youth there was a cure for this kind of behavior; It involved deep woods, a stump, a large nail or staple, a large pile of bundled of dry brush (sometimes called fagots) and a dull penknife.

Why these things are allowed to live is beyond my understanding.

Well I can’t promise it would be painless but it sure would be quick.

I worked with a woman who had taught in the Arizona prison system. Yikes!

I used to work in a job which required me to go to the prisons in the Phoenix area. Eyman was where the creeps were, but the ICE prison had the highest security—sally port, full inspection of vehicle, escort required, etc. I was told they hold some bad dudes there.

Good name. Not as good as Casanova Frankenstein, but good.

Sorry the woman had to learn it the hard way, but there’s two places women do not belong: combat and men’s prisons.
