1969 Nineteen Sixty Nine was the year that everything in my world changed. This was the year that I lost my innocence, my journey into adulthood, the most transformative year of my life; my trip down the “Rabbit Hole,” so to speak. For me, it was the most important year of my life. I was 16 and very seriously trying to be an adult. It wasn’t working out as well as I wanted it to. I was trying to do too much for my age, education and worldly experience. Innocence, once lost, can never be regai...

5 Positive Steps to Reform Prisons December 9, 2013 Renowned prison reform activist Ken Hartman gives his insights into how we can reform our broken system. We already know the prisons in this country are broken, and we have begun the process of rethinking the idea of what incarceration means, should mean, and will mean in the future. Punishment for the sake of inflicting pain has lost its hold on the public's imagination. And not a moment too soon, because the damage done is extensive. ...

A Pollyana in the Penitentiary by Danny Cherry As I sat reading Executive Regional Director Michael Osburn's response, I just shook my head and chuckled. I was way beyond the point of disgust given all that had happened up until that point. Writing the commissioner had always proven itself to be an exercise in futility, however, my conscious reasoning would never allow me to rest unless I dissented from the recidivistic conditioning of the Indiana State Reformatory. Initially, I became d...

A Brief Comment on Prison Reform in De-Christianized Society St Thomas More once wrote a letter to console his daughter before his execution. He drew out a lengthy allergy of prison—like nature of life, and God-as- the-executioner, given the fact of certain pain of death. He argues that the degree of restriction while waiting for execution does not change the fact of the punishment at the end. The man in prison has limited physical freedom, but none the less enjoys the same freedom to meet hi...

A Cesspool Full of Drecks by Danny Cherry As I lay there in excruciating agony caused by the severe infection that had resulted from my untreated burns, I tried very hard not to cry. My salted tears only exacerbated the wounds on the left side of my face. The pain was crippling; it paralyzed me. My wounds bled profusely and oozed puss incessantly. My sheet and blanket were ruined -- stained with the essence of my tortured being. I wondered how much more that my body could bear before it yield...

A Lonely World "Out of sight, out of mind." That is the saying that rings with a lot of truth to it once you get locked up. When you come to prison you learn, rather quickly, just who it is you can count on to keep in touch from the outside. Whether it is by letter, by visit or even by phone call. A person's true colors eventually show through. lt makes doing time that much more difficult. I'm not saying that the time can't be done, just that it's going to take a...

America has become a society with the highest incarceration rate of any nation in the world. And with well over two million men and women in America's prisons, there are more people incarcerated in the United States than any other country. In an age of record budget deficits and massive national debt, it would appea...

It is one of the "less lethal" force options deployed in prison to quell a riot. On one windy, Southern California day, l could see that the last few wisps of tear gas blowing off the yard as the guards finally came back through the gates, the violence essentially over, t...

Of course there is always an exception, in this case if the boat happens to be on the bottom of the ocean or anchored so that it can not move freely it will not rise on the tide.
