Abstract

Safekeeping involves transferring individuals from jails to prisons without the presence of a conviction. In North Carolina, safekeeping is used for pregnant people with the aim of providing better prenatal care. We interviewed 14 stakeholders in the safekeeping process including sheriffs, clinicians, advocates, and lawyers. Three key themes emerged: jails' inability to provide care for pregnant individuals; safekeeping as an additional punishment to incarceration; and differing attitudes on the necessity of safekeeping. Participants perceived that while there may be some benefits of safekeeping such as enhanced prenatal care, safekeeping can also lead to worsened conditions for pregnant people experiencing incarceration.

对经历监禁的孕妇的保护。

保护包括在没有定罪的情况下将个人从监狱转移到监狱。在北卡罗来纳州，为了提供更好的产前护理，对孕妇进行了保管。我们采访了保管过程中的14位利益相关者，包括警长、临床医生、辩护人和律师。出现了三个关键主题：监狱无法为孕妇提供护理；将保管作为监禁的额外惩罚；以及对保管必要性的不同态度。参与者认为，虽然安全保管可能有一些好处，比如加强产前护理，但安全保管也会导致被监禁的孕妇的情况恶化。
