The Wisconsin Secure Program Facility (WSPF), originally the Supermax Correctional Institution,[1] is a Wisconsin Department of Corrections prison for men, located in Boscobel, Wisconsin.[2][3] The facility is located east of central Boscobel, off of Wisconsin Highway 133.[1]

In 2009 the Associated Press filed a lawsuit against WIDOC, trying to force the agency to release a video of an explosion of a stinger grenade at the prison.[4]
