Report shows hike in reported sex abuse by prison officials

``More than 100 federal corrections officials admit engaging in illegal sexual contact with inmates, and more than two dozen of them smuggled in weapons, drugs and more to cover up their misconduct, an investigation has found.``

A detailed report from the Justice Department's inspector general's office says progress in implementing programs to prevent staff sexual abuse has been "mixed" despite a 2006 law that increased penalties for officials engaging in sex with prisoners.

"Allegations of criminal sexual abuse and noncriminal sexual misconduct more than doubled from 2001 through 2008," the 122-page report says. "These allegations increased at a faster rate than either the growth in the prisoner population or the number of Bureau of Prisons staff."
