Federal judge rules extreme heat in Texas prisons unconstitutional, but defers AC installation due to costs.
A federal judge ruled that extreme heat without air conditioning in Texas prisons is unconstitutional, but did not order immediate installation of AC, citing potential costs of billions.
The lawsuit, filed by advocates for incarcerated people, argues that hot conditions amount to cruel and unusual punishment.
Texas has over 130,000 inmates, with only a third of prison units fully air-conditioned.
The case is expected to proceed to trial.
