Dee Farmer filed suit in 1989 to stop the sexual and physical abuse she faced in prison. We took her case all the way to the Supreme Court, who unanimously ruled in her favor.

Tens of thousands of lawsuits have since cited the case when challenging cruel and unusual punishment in jails and prisons.

In Farmer v. Brennan, Dee Farmer paved the road for tens of thousands of people to sue the government for a wide range of prison and jail issues.
