April 8, 2020 A Choice Between Elohim or the World By: Eric Smalley When you look at yourself in the mirror, what type of person do you see? Im not asking you about your physical features. I'm asking you about who you are on the inside? We can be a good judge of character when it comes to other people. We will be able to tell if a certain individual is a good person or a bad person to be around. But since we are around ourselves so much, the question must be asked: "Would you hangou...

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." Eastern State ...

"Against the System" by David Bomber It is hard to pinpoint exactly how things went wrong. Perhaps it had something to do with the choices I made, or maybe there were some contributing factors that ultimately lead to the position that I am currently in, but that is nothing short of conjecture. What I do know for certain is that things spiraled out of control, and as a result, I found myself fighting for my freedom. Since I lost my bid for freedom, I have continued to fight relentles...

However, the deceased no longer have a voice; so I will speak out of respect for the young lady that recently passed away from a drug overdose. At the very moment I sat writing my last essay, there was a young lady in distress. Fighting for the very breath which would become her last before the age of thirty. Right here inside this physical prison. Worse, she was in the ment...

Bring Back Collateral Attack Eric Pepke l6 September 2019, original December 2018 Once upon a time in America, there were criminal trials. People accused of and indicted for alleged crimes had to be proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt before a jury of their peers. If the jury found a defendant guilty, a judge would pronounce sentence. Even in those days of old, merely convicting a defendant was not enough. The law and process had to be lawful under the constitution, preserving due process...

Lee County is just a backwards little place. Churches dot the countryside and believers gather faithfully. One enemy is onthe rise here and that enemy has invaded with a vengence. Methamphetamine manufacturing and use is simply destroying our young and I for one loathe it! To know my charges you might not think ...

Discarded Minds: The Psychological Effects of Long Term Solitary Confinement. Over the course of the past few years I noticed that public consciousness has shifted in understanding that long term solitary confinement is a psychological torture technique that must be abolished. When human beings are subjected to years in solitary confinement and reduced environmental stimulation, their mental health deteriorates and in some cases they develop psychiatric disturbances e.g hallucination, overt p...

12/28/18 End The Suffering “The prison population continues to rise at an alarming rate. And sadly, many of those entering the system for the first time, and repeat offenses alike, suffer from mental illness. Some cases more severe than others; but they are all suffering nonetheless. In reality, sometimes some of the crimes committed are by those with mental illnesses. Unfortunately there is not much help for them out there, and definitely not within the jails or prisons. So when they commit ...

It now appears that prison slave labor has penetrated further into the mainstream.

UNICOR is not supposed to compete with American companies or gi...
