January 7, 2019 APWA, All I can think to write about is what its like to be illiterate most of my life, to be abandoned by public defenders and to face a wrongful conviction on only hearsay when real evidence was not allowed. I can't imagine anyone interested in what it took to learn to read and write, the hell I lived through since December 20, 1990. Lets be honest, people are always too willing to believe the worst. I suppose it helps shape the world in their eyes. I still do not belie...

As I study what our founders of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights sacrificed for the freedoms most enjoy today, what went wrong with our laws for so many? I can't help but think that this culture of prisons would be a disappointment to our great ancestors who gave so much, often in blood and life. Also, as much as this is not just about me, I sometimes wonder how my life would have been different had I not lived on a farm and received a real education. But I refuse to live in self ...

Can anyone imagine even for a moment what it's like to be arrested for crimes you never committed, they have to sit in Court drugged out of your mind on 250 mg. of Elavil, a highly addictive prisoner management tool that the County Jail was using. I am only now learning for the first time what and why my entire time at trial I was so dizzy, passed out and was sleeping eighteen hours a day as I read the Medical Summary Transfer Report and the cautions and risks of a Medication I would of ...

'Criminal' Considered, by E. C. Theus-Roberts In our current social climate defining 'criminal' is unnecessary. Everybody carries a mental image of what a criminal looks like, their behavior and so on. Debating laws and criminal codes that dictate what is or is not criminal is useless because, these change every generation, if not more often. Instead, our focus will be on how our individual and collective conceptions of 'criminal' affect our interactions, relatio...

Getting By by Rick Anderson There is a picture of one of the Minion’s on my bulletin board. You’ve probably seen him. He’s the one with the single goggled eye. He’s a bit downcast with a caption that reads, “Sometimes getting out of bed just ruins the whole day!” I get that. Every night I begin dreaming nearly from the moment my head hits the pillow. Each time I wake during the night I seem to drop back into the same dream right where I left off. In the morning, when the clanging steel doors ...

I filled out the permission questionnaire in a previous letter just for that reason. As for names in ongoing legal cases, such is not the case as this case goes back to 1990, and because I was truly illiterate at the time and did not learn how to read or write for about twenty years or did anyone tell me about time limits of...

[No title] by E.C. Theus-Roberts, page 1 In every developed and even most semi-developed countries there exist a formal "justice" system; comprised of rules and laws derived from social norms and the perscribed consequences, or punishments for infringing upon these regulations. Here in the U.S., there has developed the inexplicable use of mass incarceration and an entire industry known as the P.I.C. (Prison Industrial Complex). The famed and highly over-celebrated Department of Corr...

Letter to the Editor I apologize for my poor writing skills. I never had much of a formal education or stability in school and its taken me more than two decades to get this legible through self education. Also I would not bother you and others now, but I gave my word to a recently passed best friend, more of a brother who came into my life, wrote me at least twice a week, stood by me for almost 30 years, that I would do my best once again to tell an inconvenient truth. Please understand. I&a...

Prisoner: Behind the Looking Glass by E.C. Theus-Roberts Picture a room, 8 feet by 12 feet. Dull, stained, peeling white paint covers the concrete walls. This spacious suite features numerous amenities: a stainless steel sink/toilet combination; pale bluish-gray printed steel shelves and desk, plentiful lighting (which never shuts off completely); a splendid view of rocks and a 30-foot concrete wall; all topped off by a concrete slab, on which rests a 3 ½ inch “mattress” (probably invented by...

Prisons are old in our society. Not simply penal institutions but their premise. This premise is what we now comprehend as "penological interests". These being varied in their exact details and measures employed in attempting to accomplish them. All, regardless of locale (i.e. Cuba, France, Russia, the United States, etc.), strive for a common objective: ensuring social order through the punishment of those who offend against society. Over the last two or three decades a change or, ...
