A da in the SHU I awake this morning to my pitiful predicament. The instant my eyes popped open I shuddered from the reality of harsh environment. Suddenly I stood and move to the center of the of the cell to perform a simple test. Sure enough standing in the [modd?] middle I was able to touch opposent walls with outstretched arms. The cell was about about eight by five. Five feet wide and eight feet long. A cement box smaller than the size of a home bath room. The cement walls, floors, and c...

A Tour Through The Circles of Hell By Patrick O'Shea Correction office David Hale was horrified by the barbaric and brutal actions of his fellow officers. "I can't describe it to you --I've never seen beatings like that," he recalled. "At least 50 guys got it, maybe more. I seen them carry one inmate down the hall with a guard on each leg and one on each arm. The assistant warden comes down the hall and grabs the inmate's testicles and starts yanking on them...

Conform and Reform Conform: adapt to rule, pattern, custom, etc. Reform: form again; reconstruct; reclaim; amend, improve, abandon evil practices. The words conform and reform are spoken and written more in my environment and studies. Now understanding their meanings I am understanding how individuals inside the Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) are reforming and being conformed. Less often does it seem to be in positive ways for society as a whole. Ask yourself when we move towards reform are ...

Consuming Thoughts by Daniel Scott Gentry 6/18. The end is near it seems. I am 30 years old and I have life with out parole. I have attempted suicide over four times. I have begun being beat by officers that want to kill me. I am trapped in confinement and I just want to go to population in a regular prison setting. I have mainly been in solitary confinement since I was 24 years old. Now I am in a mental health unit in a supermax prison. I sometimes get a phone call once a month and one visit...

Cruel and Unusual The world governments have a universally acknowledged standard for the treatment of prisoners held in confinement. These standards are codified in a document entitled, "Body of Principles for the Protection of All Persons Under Any Form of Detention or Imprisonment." The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation is in direct violation of United Nations humanitarian mandates with the arbitrary reckless manner it employs in administration of its Securit...

This figure is unlikely to change according to the chairwoman for the Ohio Parole Board, Ms. Cynthia Mauser, "because we're 16 years from Senate Bill 2, most people suitable for parole have already been released."

Maintaining Order Maintaining order. I have been confronted with this statement upon simple and reasonable request. Staff have an oath and a need to maintain order. But when is it taking it too far? I’ve heard this response to simple request of mine several times. Though they are reasonable request, I have also been met with “if you do it everyone will want to do it” True this may be, but my response is that if every now and again if a person has a simple request and they are serving more tha...

David Andrew Norton — 211153 Notes on Coping / November 2016 The stress within prison walls is really not all that different from the ‘real’ world of stress. So we prisoners do many of the same things that ‘ordinary’ people do to cope with the stress we all face. One way to cope is through diversion, as through mental and physical exercise. I'm not much of a sportsman anymore (though I dearly miss the swimming pool), but I like to get out of my routine and comfort zone a little by playin...

PAROLE SUITABILITY IN OHIO By William Ridenour Parole suitability for Ohio prisoners appears to have become dependent upon the grant terms in the agreement between the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction ("DRC") and the federal government. The groundwork for this grant contract was laid when the United States Congress enacted legislation in 1994 to provide states with funding to increase bed capacity for "Part 1 Violent Offenders." A Part 1 Violent Offender was def...
