Hunger Strike Launched at Supermax in Colorado 
-----------------------------------------------


 
In prison news, Solitary Watch is reporting eight to nine prisoners held
at a supermax prison in Florence, Colorado, are on hunger strike and are
being force-fed. More than 400 prisoners at the supermax spend between
22 to 24 hours a day locked alone in concrete "boxcar" cells without
access to a window.
