Link: Alaska Dispatch Seventeen Bethel jail inmates have filed a complaint against the state claiming they were abused for filming of the National Geographic cable TV show "Lockdown." Among the accusations: a strip search conducted in full view of a camera crew and a mock jail release in which an inmate thought he was being freed but afterward was sent back to his cell. The state admits it allowed the crew access to the jail but denies the abuse accusations. The show's Bethel segment has already aired.
