AMERICA - Michigan ends prison food deal with private company over maggots, drug smuggling

The state of Michigan has dropped its $145 million prison food service contract with Aramark Correctional Services after nearly 200 of the company's workers were fired or banned from prison property over a host of infractions. The state announced Monday it has signed a three-year, $158 million contract with Florida-based Trinity Services Group to take over the services. Michigan did not take bids in the process of switching contracts, according to reports.
Aramark's tenure as a food service provider in Michigan prisons has been marked with failed performance and a range of bad behavior by employees, including meal shortages, maggots in kitchens, the smuggling of drugs and other contraband to prisoners, a contracted prison hit and sex acts with inmates.
