Background

Idaho State Correctional Center (ISCC) is a state prison for men located in Kuna, Ada County, Idaho, one of a cluster of seven detention facilities known as the "South Boise Prison Complex". The other prisons in the area are the Correctional Alternative Placement Program, the Idaho State Correctional Institution, the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, the South Boise Women's Correctional Center, the South Idaho Correctional Institution, and the South Idaho Correctional Institution-Community Work Center. The ISCC opened in July 2000 as the first privately run prison in Idaho, operated by the Corrections Corporation of America. With a capacity of 2,080 inmates, it is also the largest prison in the state, housing maximum, medium, and minimum custody male offenders. In January 2014, citing a long history of issues, including violence and allegations of understaffing and contract fraud, Governor Butch Otter announced that the state would assume command of the facility when the contract expired in June of that year.
