what is the percentage of prisoners in the U.S correctional facilities that get raped while in prison?

I would try to be more specific. It totally depends on what kind of prison you are talking about. I would imagine that statistics are vastly under reported.

One in five prisoners report having faced unwanted sexual attention according to the "Prison Rape Factsheet"

Also, depending on the amount of time a prisoner is up against it may be more of a consensual thing.
