(Prea) Another Program Appointed By DPS (As-Is) Could you believe our prison system is so badly organized and also shows just how much our corrupt prison officers, medical staff & leaders, and even the office personal in Raleigh who runs this state (N.C) Prison System now called Department of Public Safety. (What a Joke) Hi. I'm Mack Litteral I'm here to share information un-edited by any prison or state official. I've been a writer & artist only two years and some. But...

1 Brandon Martinez Word Count: 1,253 August 25, 2010 (NO TITLE) 16 years since inception. Been locked down in the department of correction entered the prison gate. Had no idea what would be my fate. Slangin the rocks from the triple beam. Was just a young buck having fun. Didnt realize what the cost of packing a gun. As I heard the iron gates rattle. Prepared for every twist and turn of the battle. For a life sentence surely I was doomed living in obscurity in a cocoon. Would I lose my mind. ...

2020 Election Candidates Need to Address Prison Reform or Go Home To understand just how important prison reform is, consider for a moment that in 2016, a prison in St. Clair had a staggering 249 reported inmate on inmate assaults for just that year. Almost an assault a day according to a New York Times press article. This horrific report can not be ignored and is solid evidence that our prison systems are not meant to excessively incarcerate humans. So it’s lost on me why the 2020 electoral ...

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 ...

66 Days Later Frederick Mason USP Tucson #55487-056 PO Box 24550 Tucson, AZ 85734 The date is August 10th, 2016, 66 days after the incident on Memorial Day Weekend, Sunday, June 5th. I've chronicled various times after the incident in which I accused Officer D. Huffstuttler of discriminating against black inmates. I voiced my concern and contempt of the situation that very night, to see if the prison would fairly and honestly address this issue. And it is of great importance that they do...

(666) Essay by, Frederick Radford 7/11/2016 One reason I chose to title this essay “666”, is because I’m thirty six years old and 36 = 3 / 6’s = 666. Even though I am a peace maker, I’ve been battling the beast for so long that it has literally put me in beast mode! Like I said, I’m thirty six years old, on this day and I thank God that death hasn’t conquered me yet. From my understanding, I feel like “life” is designed to-program-all of us into pawns. We live in a system that is designed to ...

Michael Arreyene S.V.S.P. California A Bad Year Any year in prison could be considered a bad year, but for me the past year has been a bad year. Although it is far from the worst because things could always be worse, for instance I probably could not be able to write these thoughts or even be around. By no means do I intend to be morbid, but as we all view the best/worse case scenario this is mine. My bad year began in August 2014 and it came out of nowhere and knocked me out like a suckerpun...

A brand new beginning awaits us all By Darrell Sharpe, MA The windows here at the MCI Norfolk Prison-Security Housing unity extend from floor to ceiling, about eight feet high. They're only five inches wide-impossible for anyone to escape through, and the glass is clear. That surprised me. Most segregation units I've landed in have cell windows that are completely frosted over from the outside, making it impossible to look through them. But here at MCI Norfolk we have lots of beauti...

A Brief History of Administrative Segregation in Texas By: Joe Feijoo “Ad. Seg.” Is short for Administrative Segregation. (ad-seg). The commonly held understanding of solitary confinement defines ad-seg. It is, at best, the most grim form of incarceration and is reserved for offenders who exhibit behavior that is harmful to themselves, other offenders, staff or prison facilities. It is an enhanced method of punishment within the institution of punishment. The guidelines for putting an offender ...

A Concise History of the Prisoners' Rights Movement: An Epic Struggle for Human Dignity Those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it. Historian's maxim. After visiting Pennsylvania's Eastern State Penitentiary in 1842 Charles Dickens wrote, "The system is rigid, strict and hopeless...and I believe it to be cruel and wrong....I hold this slow and daily tampering with the mysteries of the [mind] to be immeasurably worse than any torture of the body."

Part One Do I agree with Freda Adler’s quote that “[ a] crime is anything that a group in power chooses to prohibit”? In the context of our American democracy, Adler’s quote is pretty close to an exact definition of how an act that is perceived to be wrong is codified into a body of penal laws.1 An elected body of legislators, i.e. the “group in power”, determines what public wrongs should be deemed wrong enough to be labeled a crime and, as such, carry along with them punitive measures. When A...

A Description of Who I Am: I have been in prison since 1999. I was 20 years old when I committed my crime. I had never been in any kind of trouble with the law and yet I was sentenced to die in prison in spite of mine being a non—homicide conviction and a first offense. My crime was that I participated in a kidnapping at the urging of the 47 year old man who befriended me at summer camp when I was a child and had been the lone parental figure in my life since bringing me to the United States ...

A Few Words on Post Traumatic Stress It often takes time for the full effect of traumatic events to set in. At first, we're just so relieved to get past the initial pain and stress of the ordeal, that we pay little attention to the possibility of future problems. We simply let it go and focus on other things in an effort to move on with our lives. Recently, the Texas Innocence Project responded with their questionnaire they wanted me to fill out and send in. This is what I've been s...

Peter Mehmel A Hidden Cost The eve of my son’s fifth birthday seemed especially cruel. I’m sure he woke up excited and happy to celebrate his special day, only to find that his father was gone. I can’t imagine how my wife, six months pregnant with our daughter, managed to find the words to tell him. The party arrangements were done, the cake safely stashed, we’d confirmed who would attend and even had a few bucks left over. That evening friends were playing in a band at a local bar. Maybe eve...

All that I have ever wanted to do from the first second, when false allegations were made against me, was to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Most shocking, was when I realized that these police detectives were not very happy with me when results came in after my first polygraph saying that I had passed. They simply were pissed off ...
