Description

McNeil Island with its beauty and long criminal justice history, is emerging in the news again.

It’s where Washington runs a rehabilitation for people convicted of the most serious sex crimes.

But there has not been consistent watch on how the place is run, and whether the folks in rehab are getting what they need.

Rebecca Moss of the Seattle Times has been investigating and is here to share the latest on McNeil Island.
