You should speak to an attorney who will collect information and explain your ability to possibly file criminal and civil claims against those who assaulted you.

You did not say whether these were correction personnel or other inmates?

Re: beatings while encarserated

Depending on the surrounding circumstances, the victim of the assaults may have various claims against those responsible for his/her safekeeping while incarcerated, among others. A more definitive answer to your inquiry requires additional facts about the situation.

You should consult an attorney if interested in exploring the possibility of pursuing any applicable claims. Feel free to contact me directly to discuss this further.
