452 Words on Incarceration Prison is a poisoned environment. It leaves no one untouched. It seeps into the pores like mustard gas. It fouls the very air we breathe, polluting it with anger and hatred and bitterness. It creates unseen lesions on our souls, damages our being, eats away at our minds until we have no choice but to shut down all emotion or risk self-destruction. One cannot "care" for another in here, it is a weakness pounced upon by those who prey on misery, a liability ...

A Loss of Memory? In a recent Esquire article entitled "The Cold Open" by long-time contributor Charles P. Pierce, we are reminded of the power of memory, of our mandate public witness to history and politics, and our obligation to join together with others in order to shape a better future for our nation and our world. Pierce invokes the prescient words of Czech author Milon Kundera, who saw the struggle for independence from Soviet domination as one of "man against power... m...

Essay By Terry Little A Prisoner's Apology Many days I would think of the words that I would say the mother of my victim. Do I give her a simpde sorry? do I explain in detail how regretful I am? Téis tends be a huge burden on my guilt ridden heart. The problem most times isn't about the apologetic feature, rather it's the gesture, and how will it be recieved. There has been many mothers who have lost their children from acts of violence, but how many mothers can actually say th...

Disparity in Ohio Prisons A Discourse for the Greater Public Good By: Jeffrey D. Lane in 1996, with the passage of Senate Bill 2, Ohio adopted a determinate criminal sentencing scheme termed “Truth in Sentencing.” This action resulted in Ohio having two unequal classes of inmates in its prisons, with each class being held to different standards. The crucial difference between these two classes of inmates is that while all of the “old law” inmates, those sentenced before the SB2 law went into ...

Federal Prison Shuts Down Commissary Hours For Facilities Workers Approximately 140 inmates were denied the opportunity to purchase necessary commissary items in an apparent conflict between Corrections Officers, their labor union and prison administrators this past January. Beginning with the New Year, CEOs working in the commissary at FCI Elkton (OH) eliminated late afternoon and evening hours, thus omitting the only times when inmates employed in the facilities departments were allowed to ...

JUSTICE FOR ALL By William Ridenour According to a report in the Columbus Dispatch Newspaper on April30, 2012, there were over 4,700 prisoners still incarcerated in Ohio who were sentenced under the law in effect prior to 1997 ("Old Law"}. This figure is unlikely to change according to the chairwoman for the Ohio Parole Board, Ms. Cynthia Mauser, "because we're 16 years from Senate Bill 2, most people suitable for parole have already been released."

As most "Lifers” know, the key to doing time is by actually doing the time. Time does not do them. As a Lifer, we mentally leave the outside ‘world and concentrate on serving our sentence. We know that there is a minimum portion that must be served before being considered for early release. After serving our minimum sentence,’ we begin the mental process of transitioning ourselves back into society. This process is taken very seriously. As, most of us have served decades confined and not...

My View on Prison and How It Started When we look at the history of America, and how it was stolen from the Native Americans, then built on the free labor of Africans kidnap from Africa, one can see why? Prison has become a business instead of punishment for those who have committed crimes. Crimes started with the Native Americans (theft) (murder) (rape) (kidnapping) by the Europeans then the same acts were committed on the African. Now we as different culture of people are following the same...

So it has been with each new “promise” from the 'parole' board (or from the "Department Of Corrections") that, if you do such-and-such "program" for a year—or—two, MAYBE at the end of that time, they'll “consider” letting you go...

PAROLE SUITABILITY IN OHIO By William Ridenour Parole suitability for Ohio prisoners appears to have become dependent upon the grant terms in the agreement between the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction ("DRC") and the federal government. The groundwork for this grant contract was laid when the United States Congress enacted legislation in 1994 to provide states with funding to increase bed capacity for "Part 1 Violent Offenders." A Part 1 Violent Offender was def...

PRISON OVERCROWDING IN OHIO by William L. Ridenour The prison overcrowding problem in Ohio has reached a critical stage. Some institutions are operating at nearly 200% of original design capacity. In fact, Ohio has struggled for over a decade to reduce its prison population. For instance, recent studies have shown that the incarceration rate in Ohio is 4.9 percent higher than the national average. The national incarceration rate is 545 adults per 100,000 residents, as compared with Ohio'...
