 The Militant - August 19, 2002 -- Case exposes prison goon squad in New Zealand
The goon squad, which was set up in 1999, was a specially trained Emergency Response Unit (ERU) made up of prison officers.
Bird told the Press in a May 14 interview that Haimona’s death was "a fact of life in the prison, especially in the line of work the ERU was trained for." Paparua prison site manager Rushton admitted in the Employment Court that he was kept fully briefed on goon squad actions.
But prisons, goon squads, and the everyday brutalities against workers behind bars are very much part of the "disciplined and sanctioned force" that the capitalist state metes out--on a daily basis and in a variety of ways--to working people.
