Cimarron Correctional Facility

Cimarron Correctional Facility is a private prison owned and operated by CoreCivic. The Oklahoma Department of Corrections contracts with private prison and county jail contractors as a means to provide bed space and constitutionally required services for inmates. More than 1,400 medium-security inmates are housed at Cimarron.

However, on July 16, 2020, the ODOC announced that they were ending their contract with CoreCivic at Cimarron after four inmates were killed during the deadliest fight in Oklahoma prison history.

In a written statement, CoreCivic said the prison is closing “in order to help the Oklahoma Department of Corrections meet their budget needs.” CoreCivic said it will work closely with Oklahoma officials to safely transfer inmates to other facilities.
