Luis Paz First Serial Rights Approximately 4,940 words Cease Intense Force By Napoleon Mendieta Most people talk themselves out when it comes to stopping violence, but the only true form to cease this intense force that destroys human lives around the globe is with a thought. Thoughts are things and I'm the man who used thoughts as a way out of the violence. This idea to use my thoughts was created when I mixed a purpose, persistence, and a burning desire to build a new life. I was remin...

Conviction I've searched for conviction, but I'm not sure where it lies. I've looked for it in the striving of the passionate, in the eyes of the nodding heads; I've listened for it carefully in the rising octaves of the storytellers and the whispers of those whose homes are shadows; but I never found it until I stopped looking. Maybe because conviction is something only seen in it's absence. Or maybe because so many people have painted their passion and agreement the...

Correctional Officers Dealing Dope on Behalf of the State a concise opuscule July 4, 2020 By: Ennis R. Patterson The state of Ohio is marvelous in its drug dealing endeavors. As conveyed in one of my previous pieces, “Flagrant State Complicity”, it is state-level politicians of Ohio whom is culpable when C/O’s are able to freely keep inmates supplied with narcotics; and trust me, the state has been exceptional in supplying inmates at Belmont C.I. with all the drugs they could ever ask for.

Alice Bingner 3744 Dexter Road Ann Arbor, MI 48103 Category: Personal Essay Word Count: 2,246 Corrections: an Exercise in Futility Currently, in the United States, it costs upwards of $50,000,000,000 plus a year to incarcerate more than 2,000,000 men, women and children. And the expense by no means stops there. While 10 percent of prisoners are menaces from whom the public needs protection, the rest would be better served - and so would society - if there were alternative sentencing for non-v...

‘Counting Pictures'Segment What follows is a segment from my book ‘Counting Pictures‘. It is currently (4/2017) unpublished. It's about my personal experience being accused, indicted and convicted as a 'sex offender’, a term that is loaded down with negative connotations in our society. In many cases the connotations and inferences have little or nothing to do with the offense itself or with the laws now being employed to prosecute ‘offenders’. There is in the Federal Legal Sys...

C R I M I N A L I T Y : A S T A T E O F M I N D A L L E N R A M E R Criminality is not just some physical act that oversteps a delineated set of laws. It is also a state of mind. Underlying the outer manifestations of criminality is, among other things, a certain kind of thought process: an attitude moulded by various experience. How .people view thier circumstances, surroundings, relationships, etc. will greatly determine the nature of their response to them. Behind every act of crime is a r...

"Dauntless Power" When you're in a position of power or notoriety or you air any sort of boundless confidence, you gain enemies that have never met your person, only your legend or story. Power, no matter the walk of life, in some form big or small, is the sweetest tool that anyone can envy or dream of attaining. The power upon you was made because of the legend and lessons you left. But it will always be paralleled by some unsubstantiated absurd or paradoxical story conjured u...

What prevented them from going rogue? Or, you going to take my word for it? The Fifth District Court of Appeal in 2010 found...
