History

In November 1999, the WSPF opened as the Supermax Correctional Institution on a site.
In October 2003, the prison was renamed to the Wisconsin Secure Program Facility.
In 2009, the Associated Press filed a lawsuit against the Wisconsin Department of Corrections, trying to force the agency to release a video of an explosion of a stinger grenade launched into a prisoner's cell. The video was eventually released, the AP was awarded legal fees, and the inmate settled an excessive force lawsuit with WIDOC for US$49,000.
