EL DORADO, Kan. (KSNW) – A group of about 30 prisoners at the El Dorado Correctional Facility that have refused to “stand down” prompted prison officials to call out the facility Special Security Team, according to a union official who represents corrections officers at the prison.
Robert Choromanski, the President of the Kansas Organization of State Employees, said in a tweet Friday night, “Special Security Team called in at EDCF. EMS just arrived. 30 inmates refusing to stand down.”
