According to a 2021 report by the U.S. State Department, Fox Hill prison was found to pose "significant human rights issues."
The report uncovered extreme overcrowding, deficient nutrition, and inadequate sanitation.
The majority of the prison's cells measure no more than six feet by ten feet and often house up to six inmates who have to sleep on the ground with no mattresses available and use buckets to dispose of human waste.
The report also documented that cells were infested with rats, maggots, and insects.
