Murphy said she was not transferred to Pine Grove Correctional Centre, a women’s jail. Instead, she spent three nights in a five-foot-by-six-foot cell with a concrete bench. Edwards said there is a dedicated wing for women who are in custody. Female staff are on-duty to respond to any needs and the unit is also staffed 24 hours a day by paramedics.“Beds in the unit are heated, raised permanent structures. Sheets only are provided. Special dietary needs are taken into account if they are declared and, when staffing allows it, showers are facilitated,” Edwards added.The woman’s family says they are disappointed the Crown was opposed to her release.
The family was also upset to find out the conditions their family member was held in over the weekend.
