A: I’m really sorry to hear about the situation your fiancée is facing at FDC Miami. You may want to consider reaching out to her case manager or counselor at the facility to report these concerns. It’s important to document everything, including dates, times, and the nature of the harassment, so that you have clear records when addressing the issue with prison staff.

You should also contact the Federal Bureau of Prisons' (BOP) Office of the Inspector General to file a formal complaint about the mistreatment. They have processes in place to investigate claims of harassment and misconduct by both inmates and staff.

If the situation persists or escalates, it might be helpful to consult with a lawyer who can provide legal advice specific to her case. This can help you understand her rights and the steps that can be taken to protect her while she’s incarcerated.
