A hunger strike by seven inmates in Waupun and Portage prisons is entering it's second week. The strike is against the policy of long term solitary confinement, which the prisoners have likened to torture. The prisoners stopped eating last Friday. Corrections officials wouldn't comment, but said that they would ensure the inmates health.
