Office of the Inspector General Complaint Form (Florida DOC)

This Florida Department of Corrections electronic form sends a complaint directly to the department's Office of the Inspector General for review. The page lists the complaint types the OIG investigates: physical abuse, excessive force, whistle-blower's complaints, criminal activity within the institutions, sexual misconduct including unprofessional relationships, staff misconduct, and deaths alleged to result from the actions of a department or private facility employee. It states that emergencies should go to the Emergency Action Center at (850) 922-6867 or to the facility, that help completing the form is available at (850) 488-9265, and that fraud, waste and misuse should go to the hotline at (866) 246-4412. The page also notes that PREA (28 CFR Part 115) allows a third party to file an inmate grievance on behalf of someone they believe is a victim of sexual abuse. Submitters receive a confirmation and are contacted by an OIG member.
