Tamms guards say it's a bad idea to close prison - KFVS12 News & Weather Cape Girardeau, Carbondale, Poplar Bluff

Illinois Governor Pat Quinn announced plans to close Tamms Correctional Center, but prison guards at the super-max facility say that would make all other prisons in the state less safe. "No prison stands on its own," said Corrections Lt. Toby Oliver, an employee of Tamms and president of the local AFSCME Union. "It's a system and this is one level we can use to ensure safety at all other facilities."
