The ability to follow its mission was </span><span style="color: #323232; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt;">lost when our leaders caught the Supermax bug in the 1990s with the enactment of </span><span style="color: #323232; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt;">the </span><span style="color: #cc3200; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt;">VOTIS act in 1994, the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of </span><span style="color: #cc3200; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt;">1994,(</span><span style="color: #323232; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 11pt;">H.R.3355, Pub.L. 103–322).

Most prisoners here are under 30 years old , mostly Black and nearly all are mentally ill and are here because they acted our in general population. There is no treatment: psychologists come to the cell door and ask if the prisoner is going to “self harm.” If the answer is yes, he goes to “Obs”- observation unit- where all is taken and often he/she is strapped down. Prisoners here get NO tools with which to work out their frustration , anger etc which means that self harm is the norm. They get only a rubber pencil, crayon or light pencil to write with and letters have to be short as these are hard to use and very hard to read . Contact with family and the outside is difficult for many, made worse since WI DOC implemented a third part mailing system which nearly destroys communication for families as well as makes most of FFUP’s functions impossible.( see section: )</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> Most prisoner here, we find, have had their outside diagnoses change to something less severe- often”malingering” so they require no treatment ot from serious ( MH2) to non serious ( MH1) and most are truth-in--sentencing prisoners( TIS) which means they are released at their court specified release date- ready or not. Many are released to homelessness after months and years of no treatment or training and most to little or no support, They are then whipped back into prison for non - felonies - sometimes for as little as a missed appointment, and they get stuck for years, incurring new felonies as did #3 below, for acting out ( expelling fluids is common one)</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-char-indent-count: 2.0000; text-indent: 22pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">WIDOC has a mental health code system- the most serious cases of mental illness are coded MH2 We find that prisoners who have obvious serious mental difficulties are often given the MH 1 code and with it are denied what treatment is available, any help form non profits upon leaving prison, and are told they are not eligible for treatment at the only treatment center for males, WRC ( Wisconsin Reasource Center) because “their mental health code does not fit the criteria” .Here is a link to an article about a psychologist who quit his job due to this practice of “ dumbing down “ mental health codes:</span><sup><span style="font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: super;">4)</span></sup><span style="font-size: 11pt; text-indent: 22pt;"><a href=" https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rBKskYCV7FOcb-X8IQH79rHdBgFMfJMe/view?usp=share_lin" target="_blank"> </a></span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes'; text-indent: 22pt;"><a href=" https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rBKskYCV7FOcb-X8IQH79rHdBgFMfJMe/view?usp=share_lin" target="_blank">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rBKskYCV7FOcb-X8IQH79rHdBgFMfJMe/view?usp=share_lin</a>k</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-char-indent-count: 0.5000; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric; text-indent: 5.5pt;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Some RHU cases of great concern</span></b><b><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-char-indent-count: 0.5000; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric; text-indent: 5.5pt;"><b><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> </span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; mso-para-margin-right: 0.0000gd; padding: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">1)</span><b><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">Sean Forster Hoare Jane forester </span></b><span face="Arial-BoldMT" style="font-size: 9.5pt;">590081 GBCI ( BD 1981, 41 W)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial-BoldMT" style="font-size: 9.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; mso-para-margin-right: 0.0000gd; padding: 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> Sean has Mrysa and has not seen an outside doctor since 2019 ( verified by conversation with nurse) , he has gone on hunger strike because of lack of care and will not come off until he gets care, HSU ( health service unit)says he will not get care till he eats- This is illegal and unconstitutional but things continue= he has lost over 100 pounds and Contact is hard-- Nurse said he is getting electrolytes.

His home is in Colorado and he was in Milwaukee visiting his cousins when he was arrested. He is mentally ill and he keeps getting more charges and time as he acts out when he feels abused.

The decrease in death is NOT due to the lack of the drug’s access. Prisoners tell us that guards will walk past and may even make snide remarks to a person cutting himself and ”bleeding out” or having an asthma or some other emergency, but are “speedy delivery” if it is fentanyl. “</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">A listing of complaints</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun;">1) </span><!--[endif]--><b><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The most common complain</span></b><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">t- prisoners mail to the outside does not go through TB( Textbehind) and takes 2-3 days.

In GBCI these prisoners are mostly Black and under 30. prisoners in RHUs generally only get a crayon or light pencil for writing, no crafts or art supplies. There is no treatment. With TB Parents and FFUP are almost completely shut off from this group. Self harm goes on constantly and our “DEstress Newsletter”was attempting to give them a “mind vacation” with news articles and puzzles games etc and with the “Solitary Sharing” newsletter we hoped to give some direction, some tools for coping in this difficult environment. Prisoners were beginning to submit their experiences and tips. We will be trying to restart this again with a few copies, seeing if they get in and whether we can verify delivery. This is the group where letters back and forth are essential to helping them preserve sanity and with TB , this group is cut off not only from FFUP , but also from their families. Often they get to make a call only once a month and none have access to corrlinks. . </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">5) </span><b><span style="font-family: Calibri;">FFUP has always concentrated its work on those with little or no money</span></b><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">.

His diagnoses before arrest were disregarded and the Public defender was no help. He has 3 years in and family are very worried that he will be harmed irreversibly. We are trying to get his medical records from before prison as they would show him seriously ill and not stable enough to stand trial . Like most of the people in WI RHUs ( restricted health units, )they are there because they acted out in general population. They are mentally ill and cannot take the chaos and abuse that is daily in general. Most also, went thru a process like Xavier did, where they are “evaluated” for competency and that is, according to prisoner reports: relentless interrogating/testing that goes on UNTIL the outcome desired by the DOC is reached, The exhausted prisoner simply says what ever is desired in order to have the ordeal ended. He is deemed competent to stand trial , or pleads “no contest” which is interpreted by the court as a guilty plea, and he goes to prison often with a ridiculously long sentence. There he ends up in solitary (RHU), gets no treatment or training, and is released to the street with no support,and the usual result- decades of prison. </span><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-font-kerning: 0.0000pt; mso-shading: rgb(255,255,255); mso-spacerun: 'yes';">I believe, Xavier, like so many youths, a kid in trouble ,needing guidance and treatment who instead is stuck in a system that only wounds terribly.</span><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-font-kerning: 0.0000pt; mso-shading: rgb(255,255,255); mso-spacerun: 'yes';"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 15pt; margin-right: 15pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-font-kerning: 0.0000pt; mso-shading: rgb(255,255,255); mso-spacerun: 'yes';"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 15pt; margin-right: 15pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 5.5pt;"><b><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;"> </span></b><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin-left: 15pt; margin-right: 51pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt;"><b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">3.)Jake Mashl </span></b><b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">685667 GBCI</span></b><b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;"> BD 2000, 23 yo/ out date 1 16 24 ( mother :Nikki Mashl (</span></b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #26282a; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 9.5pt; letter-spacing: 0pt;">nicmashl@gmail.com)</span><b><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">:</span></b><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 15pt; margin-right: 15pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-indent: 5.5pt;"><span style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-font-kerning: 0.0000pt; mso-shading: rgb(255,255,255); mso-spacerun: 'yes';">Jake has asbergers, ADD and multiple other syndromes in which he is explosive and disruptive at time.

Each letter becomes more difficult. You are new and I write with renewed interest because I know nothing abut you and maybe you come to the job without entrenched political ideas. </span><span><br /></span><span> I work with many of the prisoners in the adult system and the word spreads by mouth so I do see the whole picture and I ask you to look at this picture through my eyes for a minute as you consider the parole of Rufus West. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><span> I met Rufus soon after I started this work, The Wisconsin Supermax had just opened and he was in what was called “behavior Management” . He was always in trouble, unable to follow the rules and in deep traima over the death of another prisoner. He has since learned the law and become a leader to many. He has healed himself through his activism as so many of us do- and tirelessly works for justice wherever he is. I admire him tremedously especially since he is retaliated against at every turn by the system and I believe his activism, as with many other Old Law prisoner litigators, is why he is still in Maximum. FFUP also has endured retailaition so I do know what I am talking about. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><span> Rufus is long past the time he was eligible for parole,( which was set at a quarter of the sentence if behavior was good)and is now past his PMR( the time ,by law he was supposed to be release barring extrraordinary circustances) . He is one of thousands kept arbitarily in that they are given reasons over which they have no control. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 11.1pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>Here is where I ask you to look broader . I am dealing with many young prsioners, TIS prisoners, who are by law released at their court mandated release date no matter their readiness. Many of these, I am finding, are in RHU ( restricted housing units), mentally ill and have spent months if not years in solitary confinement without treatment or training, Then they are literally dumped at release. This seems to work for the system because in WIsconsin, a prisoner can be reincarcerated for non felonies .So these ex-prisoners in the main are then swooped right back up into the system. As I work with many TIS prisoners, they call on me for help while in prison and then again after release- it is heartbreaking and we are working on a grant to help with immediate need for transitional housing as the system is absolutely inadequate to the need. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 20pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>What is wrong with this picture? All studies show that people after the age of 30 commit almost no crimes- ALL OLD Law prisoners, every person you deal with - are over thirty , many if not most in their 50’s and above. They are very little risk to society an have much to give. I often say “We have Nelson Mandelas in our prisons” because we do- They have learned to focus in a way we out here, with too much social media and stimulation, cannot. They have learned self control in a way we never have to. And in the main they have a deep deep desire to give back, to repay society for the harms they have caused. Surprisingly, most prisoners although severely traumatized, are NOT bitter. They just want a chance to give back..Many have children they want to mentor and their deepest grief is seeing their children fall victim to the current inanities . Rufus lost his son in this way- and has had to deal with it isolated and alone. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 20pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span> It is these OLD Law prisoners the WI DOC holds on tenaciously giving the false reason that they are to great a “risk to society”, while TIS prisoners are let go usually with little or no support . There are wonderful non profit programs like OARS and DOES that help disabled prisoners with release but they have to be referred to these programs by social workers and this is hard to get for most of the most needy. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><span> WHO benefits from this system? Certainly not the public. Our prisons are so overcrowded and understaffed, they are often on lockdown and programs are at a minimum;staff works 14 to 16 hour days. Overtime and lawsuits are all paid for by the taxpayer. AND because the system mines the poorer, mostly non white neighborhoods, many of the kids in these areas grow up without positive parental models and choose gangs as their families out of necessity. A study by the UW concluded that over incarceration CREATES CRIME and this is one of the reasons. *</span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><span> WHO benefits from this system? It works by keeping the public in constant panic over crime. It works because the WI DOC policy of revoking prisoners at the slightest excuse keeps the public from ever seeing just who they are incarcerating . But it is excruciatingly harmful- When I went to college eons ago, I paid 200 dollars a semester, my husband went free in NY city, there were 7000 people in WI prisons. Now there are 22000 prisoners and college graduates reel under thousands and thousands of dollars in school loan debt , We used to support education and we believed in rehabilitation.</span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>I ask you to consider this rant - help us to leave behind the easy politics of fear that is leads to disaster for the many , to real listening and discovery. Through openness we can find the path to healing. </span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination: widow-orphan; text-autospace: ideograph-numeric; text-indent: 11pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span>We desperately need Rufus West out here- please okay his release- he has much to give .</span><span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><h3 style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255);

We are still obtaining information on this victim but we know he was young with only a few months to go before release. he was well liked, and was actually trying to stop a fight over a phone. The place had been on lockdown due to lack of staff and they had all come out raring to call loved ones and friends. And yes , racism and gangs were factors. Now the place is back on lockdown for a very long time. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 9pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">I bring this incident up because the deteriorating conditions in our prisons with lack of staff and overcrowding have caused the DOC to cut all programs and put staff on 12 to 16 hour shifts and install frequent partial and full lockdowns. One prisoner said it is like being in solitary confinement. There is a crisis here the MANDATES we look at the bigger picture. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 9pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">Right now the DOC"S reaction to every problem is increasing lockdowns and restrictions. We will start with the use of third part mail, TEXTBEHIND to address the fentinel drug problem . OUR campaign will go on to try to educate people on just who is in our system for the rhetoric about rapists and murderers used to keep the public terrorized is nauseating and must be addressed. Also important is the fact that over a third of our prison inmates are mentally ill. As the DOC has abandoned its mission to treat and, we as a public have abandoned our responsibility to treat vulnerable people and relegate them to our prisons. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 9pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><span style="font-size: large; text-indent: 60px;">FIRST FORAY: T<b>he failed attempt to cut down on drugs in the system</b></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 9pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">Against this background of the stabbing cited above is the increased use of drugs, which most people contend , come in mostly with staff. With the introduction of the deadly fentinel into the mix, and the total lockdown of the prisons because of covid, prison authorities decided to employ a company called TEXTBEHIND= which to this day, takes all incoming mail, scans it and sends copies to prisoners- nothing comes into them from the public through the mail (except from lawfirms. )</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 9pt;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: SimSun; mso-spacerun: 'yes';">The downsides of this system are many and complaints from all have been vocal. But the powers insist there has been a dramatic reduction of fentinel deaths since they started using Textbehind. We contest that claim and further want to expand the discussion to the negative side effects of cobbling communication between prisoners and their supports system and the refusal of the powers that be to address ANY of the conditions that cause prisoners to turn to drugs for relief.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri;

solitary confinement having long been recognized as being torture by
neuroscientists, former U.S. President Obama, Justices of our Supreme
Court the U.N., etc., the State of Wisconsin, "God's Country," continues
to house people in Solitary Confinement, calling it "Restrictive
Housing" (RH) so they can claim "We don't house people in 'Solitary
Confinement.'"</p><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto">In 2011 I began posting my writings
about my experiences/observations in Wisconsin's main Solitary
confinement facility, WSPF, on my blog, Prometheus Writes: <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://betweenthebars.org/blogs/540/&source=gmail&ust=1621533315456000&usg=AFQjCNH09EKlgV0VdcBrEIQzeH8u_5zfFA" href="https://betweenthebars.org/blogs/540/" target="_blank">https://betweenthebars.org/<wbr></wbr>blogs/540/</a>. Then, in 2018, with a friend's help, with a friend, I expanded my blog to <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://facebook.com/PrometheusWrites&source=gmail&ust=1621533315456000&usg=AFQjCNHgffy2K_45qTpUVlwwkXwKVNhcxA" href="http://facebook.com/PrometheusWrites" target="_blank">facebook.com/PrometheusWrites</a>,
where I was able to post more details, including the names of
corrupt/abusive prison staff. That same year, while I was working on a
comprehensive lawsuit that challenged the condition/practices in WSPF's
RH unit as being inhumane, on 8 Oct., I was stabbed in my head three
times by another prisoner while at rec (despite WSPF officials labelling
us as "high-risk" prisoners, they required/require us to go to rec, in
small, locked rooms, with other high-risk prisoners, to prove that we
are safe enough to be let out of RH; that has resulted in numerous
stabbings & assaults. (You can see photos of the foot-long steel
knife, its tip curled up from impacting my skull, on @PromWrites on
Twitter; I was also stabbed in my lip & gumline, left leg, arm,
finger & eye socket.)<span><a name='more'></a></span></div><div dir="auto">An artery in the back of
my head was severed. I was in shock from blood loss by the time I
arrived at the hospital. It took 32 staples to hold my scalp back
together. After a night in a hospital, I was brought to the Green Bay
Correctional Institution (GBCI), placed in it's Restrictive Housing Unit
(RHU)</div><div dir="auto">I learned from discovery in the lawsuit that
I filed about the stabbing (i.e. W.D. Wis. Case #18-CV-895, Lindell v.
Boughton, et alia,) that the guy who stabbed me (Jesse Kyle Keith, an
Iowa prisoner who was kicked out for stabbing & directing his fellow
gang members to stab staff & prisoners there) was signed up to go
to rec ALONE that day, wasn't supposed to be put in the rec cell with
me.</div><div dir="auto">II.</div><div dir="auto">Reception at Green Bay Corr.

doesn't show the dried body fluids and filth that streaked the walls of
the cell, which I didn't realize was there until a couple days after my
arrival. Remember, I'd been stabbed in my head three times, almost bled
to death, and was denied antidepressant medication that I'd been
prescribed for years, was barely alive.</div><div dir="auto">I woke up
into this filthy cell, in the Seg/RH unit in Wisconsin's oldest prison.
From in that cell, because the cell had two doors separating its
interior from the exterior, I could not speak with anyone outside of it,
only pound on the window, kick the door, or wildly gesture to try &
get the attention of staff, who often ignored my attempts to
communicate. I witnessed Troy Hammer (DOC #489983), the prisoner next to
me, in a similar super-isolation cell, snap under the pressure of being
unable to communicate with others: once, often multiple times a day,
Troy threatened to or did harm himself, forcing staff to interact with
him.

other prisoners (because each rec cell had high concrete-block walls

with those guys, learning that EVERY DAY prisoners were being sent to
the hospital due to severely cutting themselves & that the guards
(most men, White) acted as a gang, that supervisors let subordinates do
as they please, including outrageous sexual abuse.</div><div dir="auto">I
advised those other prisoners - most of whom were severely mentally ill
- how to properly file complaints so they would be able to sue about
how they were being mistreated.</div><div dir="auto">While I was in that
initial super-isolation cell, I noticed a young White prisoner walk
past, wearing a KevlarTM anti-suicide smock. The next day the guy was
found in his cell, hanging, dead. Staff refused to tell me that guy's
name, but I learned the name of a SECOND prisoner who hung himself to
death, Martel Cason. Those two prisoners hung themselves to death within
TEN DAYS after I arrived at GBCI...yet no changes were made in how the
PEOPLE being held in those RHU cells were being treated; security staff,
guards (with no higher education, no education as to how people needed
to be treated so they didn't go insane or their preexisting mental
illnesses didn't worsen) continued treating the people in those cells as
if they were THINGS, not humans.</div><div dir="auto">I began writing about how staff were treating prisoners, producing a seven-part series of exposés, which you can read on <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://facebook.com/PrometheusWrites&source=gmail&ust=1621533315456000&usg=AFQjCNHgffy2K_45qTpUVlwwkXwKVNhcxA" href="http://facebook.com/PrometheusWrites" target="_blank">facebook.com/PrometheusWrites</a>, posted in early 2019.</div><div dir="auto">III.

minute that I arrived at GBCI & stepped off the transfer van,
Captain Daniel Cushing met me, asked me if I still had my blog. I
replied that I did, & Cpt. Cushing then told me that if he posted
anything on that blog that I would be punished. Later, as part of a

upon my arrival, in which Captain Cushing wrote:</div><div dir="auto">"This inmate is big into filing litigation.

allegations> I was the main inside source for that article, which
describes much of the abuse & how staff denied any of it, despite
broken bones, severe scarring & numerous imprisoned witnesses
verifying that it happened.</div><div dir="auto">It was also noted in
the minutes for a staff meeting at GBCI, while I was still in the
initial filthy, super-isolation cell, that I "Tries to 'train' other
inmates," revealing that the RHU staff were concerned about me helping
others to properly file grievances & lawsuits.</div><div dir="auto">A
couple weeks after my arrival at GBCI, I was moved into another cell,
but was given none of my legal papers, none of my allowed property.</div><div dir="auto">In
a cell next to mine, a person named Travanti Scmidt was being held in
Observation statutes, because Travanti told staff that he was suicidal.
Travanti had repeatedly severely cut himself, often by busting out the
heavy-duty light fixtures in his cells, then using shards from the
bulbs. Travanti had only a KevlarTM suicide- resistant smock for
clothing & half of a mattress-length piece of vulcanized rubber to
sleep on -- he was allowed no other property in his cell, not even soap.
Travanti'd been held in those conditions for weeks, denied showers,
visits...everything.</div><div dir="auto">I wrote multiple Requests to
the RHU Psychologist, Dr. Todd L. Hamilton, pointing out the obvious:
that the conditions Travanti was being held in were inhumane &
numerous scientific studies found that RHU conditions caused &
worsened mental illnesses, such as Travanti's. And, each day, for at
least ten days, I also wrote Dr. Hamilton & gave him specific
details as to how those around me were exhibiting symptoms of serious
mental illnesses, which I explained were typical & known results of
housing people in RHU (also known as solitary confinement), asking Dr.
Hamilton to inform the prison's Administration of how the conditions in
GBCI's RHU were driving captives crazy/crazier.</div><div dir="auto">Dr.
Hamilton not only didn't answer those Requests, but he refused to make
them part of my Psych Services Unit (PSU) record. A complaint that I
filed about that (file #GBCI-2019-860) was dismissed.</div><div dir="auto">In
the morning of 2 November 2018, Travanti and another prisoner (David
Czapiewski #321854, who was himself diagnosed with paranoid
schizophrenia) heard Dr. Hamilton talking with the RHU's Supervisor,
Cpt. Jay A. VanLanen. In response to Dr. Hamilton saying that Lindell
was complaining about how Travanti was being treated, VanLanen said that
they needed to move Nate away from Travanti.</div><div dir="auto">The
next day, after Nate finished meeting with a psychiatrist, a guard named
Joshua J. Gomm told Nate that VanLanen ordered them to strip search
Nate then move him into another cell. While staff's policy (i.e. DAI
P&P 306.16.01 Use of Body Cameras, sub. §I.B.) required each of them
-- a guard named Jesse Ault was with Gomm -- to record that & EVERY
interaction with me, no such recording was made. The only recording
that was made, according to GBCI officials, in response to my discovery

Those who have been cut out of the jobs economy, who’ve been marginalized and neglected by political elites, business owners, and corporations, are more likely to struggle with addiction, despair, and violence. We know what comes next – they end up going to prison.</p><p>In prison, negligence, abuse, and confinement cause great and lasting harm. People then return with that trauma to the same struggling communities they were taken from. The addedhe stigma of a criminal record further removes them from economic opportunities. They become more likely to resort to crimes of survival, or of addiction and emotional distress. In this way, prison drives up crime. It contributes to a cycle of harmful behavior, of people hurting their neighbors.<span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p>Whether you grew up on Milwaukee’s police-saturated northside or Wisconsin’s small towns devastated by the collapse of the farming economy and closure of mills and factories, the business owners and wealthy elites have set up very similar futures for many of us. Those who break down under economic stress go to prison for a few years, then return to a life of greater economic stress, more likely to break down again and hurt someone.</p><p>The vast majority of people living in Milwaukee recognize this harmful cycle. That’s why we consistently vote for politicians who want to reduce the prison system and fund alternatives to police. Unfortunately, politicians representing wealthy suburban elites have used <a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/blogs/wisconsin-voter/2018/12/06/wisconsin-gerrymandering-data-shows-stark-impact-redistricting/2219092002/">gerrymandering</a> and <a href="https://wisconsinexaminer.com/2020/07/09/wisconsin-supreme-court-backs-gop-lame-duck-laws-designed-to-curtail-governor-ags-power/">other dirty tricks</a> to hijack the political process and obstruct these efforts. The gerrymandering of the legislature means votes by Milwaukeeans count for less than other Wisconsinites.</p><p>It’s easy to understand why the violence of policing and prison continues to happen to the neglected areas of Milwaukee: an unrepresentative and unresponsive political system has forced it upon us. What’s harder to understand is why working people in other economically neglected – but politically over-represented – areas accept these impositions of state control on their lives.</p><p>We<b> all </b>stand on the edge of the prison trap, just one mistake or hardship away from a life cycling between incarceration and poverty. This has little to do with justice or with ethical behavior. It is well known that people living in poverty are much more likely <a href="https://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/income.html">to go to prison</a> than the rich, regardless of criminal activity. People in poverty are also much more likely <a href="https://www.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/index.html?appid=5508484140a84023a1e2d8b080e14d0a">to be harmed</a> by crime. Cycling people from prison trauma through economic stress makes no sense from a public safety perspective, but it is the only approach that the politicians offer struggling communities on both sides of the urban/rural divide.</p><p>The difference is, unlike their urban counterparts, under-resourced rural communities often vote with the wealthy to further neglect social welfare and to expand prison.</p><p>Both incarceration and poverty are <a href="https://www.vera.org/downloads/publications/out-of-sight-growth-of-jails-rural-america.pdf">rising in rural areas</a>. Nine out of ten of <a href="https://www.indexmundi.com/facts/united-states/quick-facts/wisconsin/percent-of-people-of-all-ages-in-poverty#map">Wisconsin’s poorest counties</a> are considered rural areas. Some of these counties have also seen the <a href="https://www.vera.org/downloads/pdfdownloads/state-incarceration-trends-wisconsin.pdf">greatest increases in incarceration</a> rates, while Milwaukee’s incarceration rate slowly declines.</p><p><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-255" height="444" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/05/vera-graph-long.jpg" width="984" />After years of pushing for prison reform on a state level and gaining nothing, people from Milwaukee have turned their attention to local politics instead. The African American Roundtable’s <a href="https://www.liberatemke.com/">LiberateMKE campaign</a> is defending the community by fighting to defund the police. Mass protests with radical demands <a href="https://wisconsinexaminer.com/2020/07/23/milwaukee-police-chief-morales-meeting-draws-protesters-from-both-sides-of-the-debate/">kicked out Chief Morales</a> and <a href="https://www.cbs58.com/news/milwaukee-police-chief-ed-flynn-talks-about-protests-firing-christopher-manney">Chief Flynn</a> before him. These protest movements also deter the district attorney, judges, and community supervision agents from incarcerating so many people. When <a href="https://wisconsinexaminer.com/2020/02/14/closing-lincoln-hills-detention-facilities-stalls/">state laws</a> that were supposed to get Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake closed to protect our children from abuse failed, <a href="http://www.youthjusticemke.org/">Youth Justice MKE</a> and community organizers focused pressure on the DOC and Division of Youth and Family Services <a href="https://milwaukeenns.org/2021/02/23/milwaukee-county-see-progress-in-reducing-the-number-of-inmates-in-youth-prisons/">to release</a> Milwaukee children and depopulate the facilities while they remained open.</p><p>Meanwhile, many rural communities continue to support “<a href="https://wisconsinexaminer.com/2020/01/14/tougher-on-crime-bills-introduced-by-gop/">tougher on crime</a>” policies of the Republican Party, even as those policies cause more and more harm to rural Wisconsinites. Seven of Wisconsin’s ten poorest counties voted Republican in the last election, three of which by a more than 10% margin. Meanwhile, all ten of the richest counties, where the business owners and corporate elites live in luxury, elect Republicans.</p><p>The people of Rusk and Forest counties have been deprived of viable livelihoods by the same sorts of corporations, bankers, and business elites who ripped off the northside of Milwaukee. Why do we vote so differently? Rather than voting for support, protection, and relief, rural Wisconsinites vote with those elites for punishment.</p><p><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-256" height="272" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/05/counties.png" width="496" />Historically, racial hatred and resentments are part of the problem. White people sometimes choose to <a href="https://bioneers.org/equity-good-everyone-changing-story-world/">deprive themselves</a> of things, rather than sharing access with others. I grew up in Burlington, where the long-standing racism of the school board was <a href="https://www.wpr.org/dpi-report-finds-racially-hostile-environment-burlington-schools">recently exposed</a>. I’ve seen huge confederate flags flying in Waupun and around the state. I also know that most rural Wisconsinites are decent, generous people who do not believe in that kind of overt racism. At the same time, no one can deny that it exists or is often tolerated and excused.</p><p>Both parties have been very good at playing cultural and racial differences against each other to keep working class people divided. Republican Party operatives vilify Black people and convince their voters to destroy social safety nets rather than extend them to include all people. Meanwhile, Democratic messaging focuses on stereotypes that rural whites are backward, uneducated, and hateful. As a result, we stay separate, voting for whichever party claims to represent us. The urban / rural divide deepens. Last summer’s protests began changing that; <a href="https://www.wpr.org/small-town-protests-organizers-see-thrilling-signs-change">young people opposing racism across the state</a> stood up and began finding each other.</p><p>Other than racism, the common explanation for pro-prison attitudes in rural areas is jobs. People are desperate for work, and the state most often offers prison jobs. This is disgusting, because these guard jobs are being offered by the same political elites who adopted pro-trade policies closing factories and mills, who helped to indebt family farms and then let banks and massive agribusiness conglomerates buy them out. After taking so much, so fundamentally changing the landscape of rural Wisconsin life, what do they push into that void? Prisons.</p><p>Prison jobs are bad jobs. Guards bring the trauma of holding others captive home. Elevated rates of suicide, substance abuse, domestic violence <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/hard-time-correctional-officer-suicide-rate-rivals_b_59b7fcc5e4b0678066213ea2?guccounter=1">follow people</a> who hold others captive. Many can see it happening and <a href="https://www.wiscnews.com/por-tagedailyregister/news/local/at-cci-people-are-leaving-us-left-and-right/article_665ccba4-1de1-55e6-af2f-a219d98c1eb4.html">quit</a>. A report based on open record requests by <a href="http://www.prisonforum.org/2019/09/satffing-crowding-and-death-in.html">Forum for Understanding Prisons</a> revealed that the alleged staffing crisis in the DOC was actually more of a turnover crisis. Many people quit <a href="https://www.wbay.com/content/news/Target-2-Investigates-Prison-losing-staffers-hired-in-state-recruiting-blitz-501383561.html">shortly after starting</a> jobs as guards.</p><p>Elites from both political parties keep trying to solve the problem by raising wages for prison guards. They hope that more money will lure people into these soul-crushing and trauma-inducing jobs. Instead, they could be reducing incarceration and returning real, fulfilling work to rural Wisconsinites. If the best politicians have to offer is throwing some of us in cages, and paying others of us to hold those cages shut, then it’s time to get better politicians.</p><p>We must not allow politicians who only represent and care about business owners in the rich suburbs to build more prisons. We must demand that they return honest work and soul-nourishing opportunities to all in Wisconsin. We must reach across the urban/ rural divide. To unite as workers and demand a fair chance at living as free people. We can toss these crooked, lying, money-seeking politicians out. The people of Milwaukee have had enough. We’re already organizing to defend ourselves against this kind of governmental imposition. If rural people do not join up, if they continue to support building prisons, they are going to find that those prisons end up filled by their friends and neighbors.</p><p> </p>Ben Turkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04838599516482103220noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8006122048074210759.post-29518870743969907542021-05-10T08:42:00.002-07:002021-05-10T08:42:32.675-07:00Union Supply Monopoly<p> Repost from <a href="https://abolishmke.wordpress.com/2021/05/04/union-supply-monopoly/">ABOLISHmke</a></p><p><br /></p><p><img alt="" class="alignright size-large wp-image-244" height="640" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/05/unionsupplymonopoly-1024x1024.jpg" width="640" /></p><blockquote><p><i>Prisoners are isolated to ordering solely from union supply as a contracted vendor... I'm under the impression it violates the consumers protection act where we are to have price competitiveness and is at contrast with the reasons the doc initially cited as their reasons to start the four original vendors contracts in 2007 or so, which included wider selection and “price competitiveness”. Please advise … and stop this unjust overtaxing of loved ones and prisoners hard earnings especially where union charges way more than others, takes three times the wait to deliver and puts families on hold hours to place orders. Also, where prisoners earn 5¢ per hour and doc takes 50% of hat 5¢ for restitution even hough courts imposed 25% and hen turn around and take another 10% for release accounts. Who is criminal in his situation?!!</i></p></blockquote><p>—Jose Soto #307830, prisoner at Waupun Correctional Institution</p><p> </p><p>The Wisconsin DOC is working towards only allowing one vendor to provide essentials to their captives: <a href="https://www.wiinmatepackage.com/Home.aspx">Union Supply</a>. There’s a whole host of issues that come along with this, not least of which being that monopolies are historically price-gougers and unreliable, because there is no competition, so they can proceed however they want and do whatever maximizes profits, disregarding the needs and rights of the people they’re doing business with.<span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p>Currently, there are two companies—<a href="http://www.jlmarcuswisconsin.com/Facility.aspx">JL Marcus Wisconsin</a> and Union Supply—that prisoners and their friends & families are allowed to order their essentials through. Most notably, these companies are the only way to get stamps into prisons. If you’ve ever communicated with someone who is incarcerated, you learn quickly that stamps are very valuable inside, as phone calls are often expensive and many do not have access to a tablet or the kiosk to be able to send emails. In addition, stamps provide prisoners one of the only methods of communicating with the outside world that is unmonitored. Sending private love notes, sending out a complaint about a guard or policy without fear of immediate retaliation, or even just wanting a little bit of privacy for once can only be accomplished with a stamped envelope.</p><p>After the dissolution of the contract with JL Marcus, Union Supply will be the only vendor sending these items into prisons. They’ll have a total monopoly on many of the services prisoners depend on.</p><p>This company is already very hard to work with. Some of the experiences that I and other people who do prisoner support work have had with them are beyond frustrating, and often without resolution. And this is all while they have competition. I can’t imagine what it will be like once they have complete control over the flow of resources into prisons.</p><p>For instance, we are unable to purchase products for multiple prisoners within the same 24 hour period. While this may not seem like much more than an inconvenience, I ask you to consider how I spend many mornings: While going through Corrlinks emails, I purchase any requests I have funds for immediately. This way I am able to send the person I am ordering on behalf of an invoice number via email and let them know that the product they requested (usually stamps or paper or pens) has been ordered. Currently, I am able to do this through JL Marcus. They have their own issues, but at least I am able to meet people’s needs relatively quickly and without disruption to the process.</p><p>When I use Union Supply for this, sometimes, I get emails saying I have to call and verify that I am in fact purchasing things for multiple incarcerated people in Wisconsin. Not only is this frustrating, but oftentimes, I am unable to actually get them on the phone. As of right now, I have six pending orders that I have been unable to resolve, despite sitting on hold for a total of about seven hours over the course of a week. The founder of FFUP (<a href="http://www.prisonforum.org/">prisonforum.org</a>) and I have tried on several occasions to get the contact information of someone who could put through our orders once we email them to verify that we placed the orders, but they are unwilling to allow us this as a possibility. After that experience, I decided to place the orders again, using JL Marcus instead. I intended to avoid the situation going forward by only using JL Marcus, but in a few short months, this will not be an option.</p><p>When we’re forced to use Union Supply, not only will prices go up, but holds on our accounts will likely accumulate quickly, and with their terrible customer service, the number of holds will likely continue to grow, leaving people to go without the things they need to survive and/or keep sane.</p><p>Rising costs will also have a potentially devastating impact on prisoners, as many people order things for themselves. Maintaining a decent amount of money while incarcerated is nearly impossible, since the DOC collects fees and places charges on anyone they cite for behavior, which can often be fabricated by unquestioned guards. Beyond this, anytime you give money to a prisoner’s account, the Wisconsin DOC is able to take upwards of 35% in an <a href="http://www.prisonforum.org/2020/03/end-doc-money-scam-action.html">act of pure theft</a>, a remnant of the <a href="https://isthmus.com/news/news/state-prisons-ramp-up-deductions-from-inmates/">Walker administration</a> that coward Tony Evers won’t undo. Anyone who is incarcerated and has managed to accumulate their own funds is capable of ordering what they need/want, and while the same issues we on the outside face with regard to holds placed on accounts likely won't affect prisoners, the rising costs will absolutely limit their access to these things. In addition to the rising costs affecting prisoners' ability to access products that are essential to maintaining their physical and mental health, these costs also go on to fund the <a href="https://www.unionsupply.com/sponsors_affiliations.aspx">exact organizations that work towards incarcerating them</a>.</p><p>As Jose points out, the Wisconsin DOC has been working on reducing the number of vendor resources since 2007. The purpose of this is, to be frank, unclear to me. The hopeful side of me (if you could call it that) wants to think they have a legitimate bureaucratic motivation. The cynical side of me recalls the fact that<a href="https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/2020/04/10/wisconsin-work-release-inmates-leave-prison-job-menomonee-falls-despite-coronavirus-spread-risk/2972054001/"> the DOC receives a 10% kickback from Union Supply</a>. The benign truth is, it’s probably somewhere in between these two things. Regardless of the motive, the malignant truth is that this will disrupt prisoners’ abilities to receive the resources they need to adequately defend themselves legally (paper, stamps, pens) and increase their quality of life with items that help them deal with the everyday traumas of incarceration (TVs, radios, craft supplies).</p>[caption id="attachment_246" align="aligncenter" width="358"]<img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-246" height="293" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/05/unionsupplymonopoly2.jpg" width="358" /> Some overpriced junk.[/caption]<p>I reached out to the DOC about this recent decision. Though they haven’t responded to my questions directly, the responses they have given are telling. The first reply I received came from Wendy Monfils, Budget Director for the DAI:</p><blockquote><p><i>Thank you for your interest in this matter. I want to assure you this decision was not taken lightly. DOC’s decision to move to a single vendor contract was influenced by a number of factors. For example, previous contracts showed evidence that not having specific religious and other property/hobby items available through contracted vendors poses safety and security concerns not to mention an inequity issue. Also a considerable amount of time and resources are spent managing catalogs and orders from multiple sources with multiple shipping/return/handling processes. In addition significant time is spent evaluating products from multiple vendors to ensure policy compliance and safety and security of our institutions, persons in our care and staff.</i></p><p><i>DOC held a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process with the intent to award the Personal Property Items contract to a single vendor. DOC received four proposal responses. Each response was scored by an independent evaluation committee in accordance with established criteria. Union Supply Group was the highest scoring proposer and subsequently received an intent to award. Union Supply will establish a comprehensive catalog containing products of comparable quality and pricing to those offered through all of the current supplier catalogs.</i></p></blockquote><p>So, what she’s effectively saying is that by limiting the number of vendors they don’t have the time to evaluate the products from a bunch of different vendors, and then she shifts the blame for the decision to make Union Supply the sole vendor off to the evaluations of an independent committee. I responded, asking what measures they plan to take to ensure that outages, like those that occurred as a result of the <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/texas-power-grid-failure-why_n_602e9682c5b6cc8bbf3a0268">Texas power grid went down</a>, don’t happen in the future. While Union Supply was unable to provide the “services” they are meant to during this time, we were able to use JL Marcus. If in the future this were to happen again, prisoners in Wisconsin will simply be without.</p><p>After pressing the issue, sending multiple follow-up emails, I finally received a response from Kevin Carr. Unfortunately, this was the response I received (note, I have removed my personal information from this image):</p>[caption id="attachment_245" align="aligncenter" width="555"]<img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-245" height="380" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/05/carr-hi.png" width="555" /> Coy email from Secretary Carr[/caption]<p>It’s unclear whether this was a coy attempt of his to remind me that he is in no way accountable to my concerns or not. But the fact that he has yet to follow up with an apology and an actual response leads me to believe that this is exactly what it is. I have on several occasions received snarky and apathetic responses from Secretary Carr, this is just another I can add to that list.</p><p>In formulating my response, determining exactly how “disrespectful” my language or tone should be, I received a much longer email from Sarah Cooper, which I present here in part:</p><blockquote><p><i>...We understand the climate of the institutions population is impacted by the programs and services we offer. We did formally meet with USG to discuss the issues that happened over a period of time from mid-February to March.</i></p><p><i>There were a series of events tied to the drop in service for a two to three week period of time from February to early March 2021. USG itself was moving its headquarters from California to Texas which included migrating the data server and infrastructure. Although the vendor validated the system specific to the processing of orders into the system and saw no errors initially, they did find an error on February 18th, 2021 that impacted orders. That error was corrected and orders were processed; errors related to this were cleared up by February 25th, 2021.</i></p><p><i>There are many steps that are taken to ensure that the services we provide are to the highest standards. For example, procurement process included an independent committee to evaluate the vendor proposals, in the contract language the DOC has the ability to take corrective action if the vendor is not able to meet expectations as outlined, which include, being able to provide the items that are identified through the Hobby/Property policy. To help ensure accuracy, we are also discussing a phone ordering system and increased customer support.</i></p><p><i>Lastly, as it relates to any quality issues of products received from USG, please encourage people to bring their concerns to the attention of institution staff at the time of receipt. Doing so gives us the necessary data to open dialogue with USG about these types of concerns.</i></p><p><i>Thank you for your communications and we appreciate your interest in the overall services for the Persons in Our Care.</i></p></blockquote><p>What’s happening here is that Sarah is making a lot of excuses for something that shouldn’t be an issue. These outages can and likely will happen again, as we are going to experience <a href="https://borgenproject.org/natural-disasters-increasing/">more frequent</a> and <a href="https://borgenproject.org/are-natural-disasters-getting-worse/">more severe</a> natural disasters. The simple solution is to “not put all your eggs in one basket,” as the saying goes. All of this is to say that beyond the issue of Union Supply having a monopoly on products that Wisconsin prisoners need, their reliability can not be guaranteed.</p>[caption id="attachment_147" align="aligncenter" width="236"]<img alt="" class="size-full wp-image-147" height="214" src="http://abolishmke.noblogs.org/files/2021/03/Sarah-Cooper.png" width="236" /> DAI boss Sarah Cooper[/caption]<p>Since my communication with DOC administrators, I have also received further information from prisoners in Wisconsin. This email was sent to me from Devin Brown, a prisoner at Oshkosh CI:</p><blockquote><p><i>The following will be a letter/message verbatim from Jack L. Marcus ( A Property and Hobby vendor). </i></p><p><i>To: </i>[redacted] <i>< </i>[redacted]<i><span class="">@</span>jacklmarcus.com ><br /></i><i>Date: Friday April 16, 2021 2:16pm<br /></i><i>From: </i>[redacted] <i>< </i>[redacted]<i><span class="">@</span>jacklmarcus.com ><br /></i><i>Subject: Letter for reaching out to Milwaukee office</i></p><p><i>Dear Customers:</i></p><p><i> </i><i> We need your help. If you do nothing, you will be forced to order all hobby, food and property items from ONLY Union Supply after September 30th. The State of Wisconsin DOC will not allow you to order from Jack L.Marcus after September 30th. This would also end in-person ordering. If you are not satisfied with prices, products or services from Union Supply, you will not have another option. Midtown Milwaukee has relied on Jack L. Marcus for good service, fair prices, jobs and opportunity for over 30 years. Eliminating competition is never good for customers. One choice is no choice! </i></p><p><i> If you are as concerned as we are about this decision, please call Governor Evers' office in Milwaukee and tell him to reverse their decision. Let him know that you want more than one choice and that you value having Jack L Marcus part of your community. Every call will help. 414-227-4344. Please also email Nadiyah Groves in Governor Evers office. Her email is Nadiya.groves@wisconsin.gov.</i></p><p><i> Thank you for your continued support! Remember ONE CHOICE IS NO CHOICE!</i></p></blockquote><p>Stopping this monopolization and removal of JL Marcus as an option for prisoners and their friends and families is both important and possible. In addition to the contacts shared with Mr Brown in the above email, please contact Wisconsin Department of Adult Institutions Supervisor Sarah Cooper (<i>sarah.cooper @ wisconsin . gov</i>). Let her know that this is an unacceptable infringement on prisoner’s consumer rights, and that it is clearly unethical to limit their resources even further.</p>Ben Turkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04838599516482103220noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8006122048074210759.post-70983287786715483252021-04-22T07:30:00.006-07:002021-04-22T08:44:58.551-07:00FFUP LAUNCHES SPRING FUNDRAISER<p> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI3AAfAH01pHtxXLmYqeACOsGWhIQR3MzEw7QgjYaIOQrrRSjI_I3M5VhjZNLu4Vxt1z6gEE4-HtvoKDZ5Iw7agB4cyVQMYKiqo59RcSfN5QIhuSSVdG25pWzYoaaq1kcmeHWXuwfzRDs/s579/pict+sol+from+Bernadette.jpg" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="579" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI3AAfAH01pHtxXLmYqeACOsGWhIQR3MzEw7QgjYaIOQrrRSjI_I3M5VhjZNLu4Vxt1z6gEE4-HtvoKDZ5Iw7agB4cyVQMYKiqo59RcSfN5QIhuSSVdG25pWzYoaaq1kcmeHWXuwfzRDs/s320/pict+sol+from+Bernadette.jpg" width="320" /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">FFUP launches fundraiser

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;">3) PRISONER'S LEGAL RIGHTS AND SOCIAL
JUSTICE FUND (PLRSJF)</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Intro</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">: FFUP started soon after the Boscobel
Supermax opened around 2000 with its 500 solitary cells. We started with a penpal
project. Since then the prison population has grown from 7 000 prisoners to 22000
and solitary is used to deal with all ensuing problems from overcrowding and
understaffing, to lack programs and no treatment for the mentally ill . With
the pandemic, all got even more toxic, and suicide attempts soared, even within
the now locked down general population. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Prisoners
have little control over what happens to them in this system. It is a caldron of
frustration and Rage. However, we all have control over how we react to the
world around us and FFUP has two programs that try to give prisoners ways to
positively direct their lives; our <b>DEStress project</b>, and <b>legal Project</b>.
Our third program “ <b>A Place to Land</b>,” addresses the final failure of the
system- prisoner being released after years of trauma and little training or
treatment. FFUP is dealing with an increasing number of prisoners dumped to
homelessness or to a short-term placement that offers no support. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">1)DESTRESS
PROJECT</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">: A
volunteer puts together a monthly newsletter filled with games and stories, exercises,
news articles etc., aimed at those who have trouble dealing with the stress of
solitary confinement and/or the pandemic. We also offer craft and art supplies and
books as part of our effort to encourage prisoners to “ground” their frustrations
and anger thereby transforming that energy to positive actions. Because those
in the deepest solitary units are allowed almost no tools for “distressing”, we
have also crafted a pilot program proposal where prisoners and staff sign a
contract allowing gradual increase in privileges and supplies in exchange for respectful,
healthy behavior. We are in the negotiating process with DOC powers to get this
enacted.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkC1AyXppPvR_LB2DZ7tGvrC6NDuDhp7CRjrpnM7I3VSaWBVAbd-eGWevGF4gR28q0rGcZXqJg3v8MBPghl6la-DMQgyeLlIcx9G6wjwLWqOzfw2mLpWQCCbgaVJVEenVjf66U5Ppx-k/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="250" data-original-width="320" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZkC1AyXppPvR_LB2DZ7tGvrC6NDuDhp7CRjrpnM7I3VSaWBVAbd-eGWevGF4gR28q0rGcZXqJg3v8MBPghl6la-DMQgyeLlIcx9G6wjwLWqOzfw2mLpWQCCbgaVJVEenVjf66U5Ppx-k/" width="307" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><o:p></o:p></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><b>2)A SAFE PLACE TO
LAND: funding for rental pace for donated trailer</b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> An EXPO member has donated the use of a trailer for a safe refuge for
newly release prisoners who are indigent and would otherwise be homeless. We
need funding for space rental and a few months of maintenance. We believe this
project will soon be self- sustaining , as we could ask for affordable rent
once these guys get a job. We will also ask an ex-prisoner to be a live-in
supervisor, seeing that order is maintained, and it continues to be a healthy
environment. He will be paid in free rent. We will be paying for food an
supplies while this project gets going. We hope this can grow and we can
realize the many dreams we have explored over the years- finally for a self-sustaining
community for training and nurturing people traumatized by our justice
department.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.4in;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Background</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.4in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Because
all funds go to maintaining the population, there is little treatment of the
mentally ill and few programs. FFUP is dealing with many released prisoners who
are released straight from years in solitary and have no support. They are
often forced to stay in the berg where they committed their crime- whether
there is safe placement for them or not. The best scenario for a prisoner who
is indigent is the placement in what is call a TLP( temporary living placement),
where they get a roof over their head for 90days and a curfew. Period. For some
people that is plenty, for they hightail it over to the county health and human
services department and get food stamps and then a manual labor job which are
plentiful. This is not usually possible for many prisoners who are released from
solitary. They need a safe place to land for a few months. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.4in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">FFUP
is dealing with two men this winter were released to homelessness and another who
would have been homeless but for help with rental finds and person who was
given a TLP but had no food or transportation and again, needed some time to
orient being in society again. Because this was during stimulus fund time, FFUP
was able to aid these four prisoners but now we need your help<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.4in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">3) <b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>PRISONER'S LEGAL RIGHTS AND SOCIAL JUSTICE
FUND (PLRSJF)<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">This is an
outgrowth of our legal Project, where we help prisoners learn the law. We connect
them with a prisoner litigator guide, supply guidebooks, stamps, copies, case
as we can. We find that prisoners that do learn their rights and use the law to
address wrongs they see, have fewer mental and emotional problems, and are able
to treat all with respect . They get retaliated against but can deal
effectively with that. Prisoners help prisoners in this system, and we try to
encourage that with this program.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">With PLRSJF,
we will go from individual cases, where winnings seldom garner any changes in
the system to multiple cases efforts and cases that DO effect change if won.
This will take funds for filing fees and copies, postage etc and we are working
on getting a lawyer consultant-<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Already
with the inception of this fund, litigators and FFUP are beginning to think
larger and are gathering cases of similar nature and organizing our legal project.
We can umbrella most of the issues we will be addressing under one heading-“ACCOUNTABILITY”.
As it is now, there is none- the DOC monitors, investigates itself on all
levels from the inmate complaint system to the PREA fiasco. By showing patterns
with multiple cases and featuring well done examples of systemic problems, we
can, we hope, point the DOC back to its original mission- “To rehabilitate
offenders and keep the public safe.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In this time
of global panic, sickness and strife. it is easy to forget the most vulnerable
among us while we lick our own wounds. The term ”essential <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>workers” hides a gruesome fact as it is the
poor, usually minorities, that cannot afford the luxury of staying home- must
go to work serving us in order to survive . They are the one’s dying along with
the other groups hardest hit - those who cannot protect themselves, live in
enclosed spaces-like nursing homes and prisons, where the virus is brought in by
staff. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For many of our prisoners, the
term “persons in our care” has become a cruel joke :they say“What care?” ,and
reports to FFUP and other organizations contradict almost completely the one we
hear from the WI Department of Corrections(WIDOC). <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We have truly entered the world of the “survival
of the fittest” where the virus wolves circle the herd picking off the weak. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Since the
beginning of the pandemic activists and concern citizens have been calling for
the universal use of masks, testing and that the prisoner be given adequate sanitizer
and only now, when the virus is everywhere, are the national guard sent in to verify
the hundreds of positive cases in each prison. And still prevention and
treatment are a joke in most prisons, each fiefdom creating its own rules which
mostly make little sense and are intended only to placate an uninterested
public. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">We need your
help with our new “DEStress project , with answering phones , with web work and
with funding. Overarching all our efforts is preparation for court action to
get the prison population down to levels where the pandemic can be effectively
handled. There have been two failed WI court attempts which we learn from and a
successful in California, where the court has order the halving the population of
the notorious prison SAN QUENTIN.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Here are

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">For this
writer, how we treat these “persons in our care” is of utmost important for
they actually are ”persons in our care” and have NO WAY TO PROTECT THEMSELVES. Like
one of the presidential candidates is at this time touting about the election, helping
these “persons in our care” survive the pandemic and getting those most
vulnerable out of there and back to their families is a struggle for the “<b>soul
of the nation</b>.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>

of suicide attempts even in general population we started this project and
basically ask prisoners what tools they need to help them cope- we have bought some
tvs and radios for the most fragile but that is rare-mostly it is puzzle books
and coloring books and craft supplies books to read- beads and crocheting ,
drawing and painting are popular. The prison ironically provides less and less
the more needy the prisoner. Those most mentally ill get to be in the darkest
dungeon and only get a crayon to write with. Punishment is the only reaction
given to any behavior that is the slightest bit disruptive or disrespectful . A
big success has been getting permission send in book with packing slip instead of
paper receipt- this was a 15 year attempt. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

From the beginning we have been asking that prisoners be given adequate soap and disinfectant and that the staff is bringing in the covid. Since the virus is airborne prevention is all that could work. Ross takes us through the steps that happened in his medium custody prison.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> <b>Anonymous</b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> I’m
writing about my concerns about the situation here at Stanley correctional
institution. WE now have a covid outbreak within the institution Three out of
the five housing units are now locked down because of it. To start off, we had
been tested in the spring and found to be covid free Shortly after, they
implemented the use of masks, no visits, and limited movement, among other things. Then they started bringing in inmates that tested
positive from minimums to house here. The reason behind this was the minimum security
prisons were unable to quarantine sick inmates.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> As time went on, the staff has continued
acting carelessly, regularly removing masks to eat and drink. They interact
with us without masks outside of the buildings.
They claim to be tested daily by having their temps taken. I can’t see
this being very effective when many stop at McDonalds or gas stations right before
showing up for their shift. I know this because they eat what they had purchased
right in front of us So who knows who they have come in contact with.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> In the last couple weeks, the things
have completely come off the rails. A kitchen staffer tested positive for covid
only after being around inmates. We have had one guard repeatedly escorting
groups of rookies in and out of all the housing units and people’s cells. A
couple days ago, a white shirt was going from infected housing units to covid
free units. He even went into random cells just to have a “look see.” This all trouble
me since they clearly have no regards to spreading covid. They are not
concerned with our well being or prevention of this horrible virus. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> I don’t believe the DOC or this prison
have any protocols for what’s taking place. Ow. The have so many people ( inmates)
sick that now they are asking for volunteers to do various prisoner jobs They need
everyone from plumbers to cooks in the kitchen.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> They have no place to quarantine sick
inmate. Instead, they are being held on their housing units with the healthy
ones. These buildings have 1 central ventilation system so everyone is
breathing the same air.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> This place is short staffed and are
requiring guards to work double shifts, often bouncing them around from unit to
unit. This is further increasing the risks to us.<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> There is no social distancing at all. As I
write this, I have 7guys around me. To make things worse, its been decided to
take away our hot breakfasts. We also have had a few of the better meals taken
away. Gone are eggs, oatmeal, chefs salads and turkey wraps. They are replacing
them with more carbs and starches. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> This has become unreal to me. My family
and friends are concerned about my wellbeing. I’m non- violent offender with 14
months left. I have no institutional program needs. I am low risk with a
minimum custody level. I’m cleared to go to a minimum but won’t get moved because
of all this. I’m not even from this state. I live in Illinois where I have a
home in the country, family, work, etc. I’d
be safer there. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> I am the first to say we all need to be
accountable for our crimes. This is starting to get out of control. I feel like
enough is enough, let me go home and quit putting me and others at risk. What
in the hell is wrong with the powers that be? Do they make money on housing
people? Do the not take into consideration the stress this adds to our families
and friends? I understand that everyone Is going through this but do they ever stop
to think if 400 inmates need urgent care at a hospital. What will they do? Overwhelm
an already stressed hospital in the local area? Or just let guys suffer here?
Things appear to get worse as time goes on. Would they rather let inmates die
before releasing them?<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> I’m
sick of this mess. People need t hear us and really think about this situation.
We are not all bad people. Hundreds maybe even thousands in Wisconsin prisoners
are just like me. Made a mistake, first time in prion and just trying t get
back home to family to rebuild. How can I get this word out to the public? Are
there any TV or paper that care about us> Are there any lawyers or judges to
write? I know FFUP care but I want to do whatever I can because this isn’t
right. I’m not here to get sick and possibly die or have long lasting health effect
from covid. In my strong opinion, Tony Evers, the DOC and courts have really dropped
the ball on this issue. It makes me mad. Feel free to use this in your
newsletter or forum. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">

started with about 21 people, now we are down to 12 people and we’re working
430am to 630pm. The southwest cell hall is the only cell hall that they are
letting work. It’s very crazy and unethical the way they treat us here. I guess

I have seen the riots and protests fighting for equality. Yet here I sit in a
Wisconsin Prison cell being paid 35 cents an hour. Most people make between 19
and 25 cents. That is sweatshop and slavery wages at the very least. How is it
any different than it was 200 years ago? The prison staff are the slave owners
feeding us meals that honestly would barely keep children alive, they give us a
2 inch mattress to lay on, and if we work, they pay us illegal sweatshop wages.
How is that any different than the slavery and human rights violations of 200
years ago?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of these prisoners as Frontline Workers, risking their lives in the
process...Paying them 19—35 cents an hour to face death. Slaves required to
risk our lives working 16 hour days in most cases, which wears down the body,
and makes you more likely to get sick. We are not given proper surgical gloves
to keep us safe. We cannot wash our own personal laundry, leaving us with
clothing that is covered in dirt and bacteria, and that is now falling apart
because of this. They stopped letting us clean and disinfect our rooms, again,
putting our lives at risk. And staff members are not allowed to only work one
unit to stop the spread of covid from unit to unit. They work one 8 hour shift
on a unit with 100 infected prisoners...<u>A Hot Spot</u>...then, they come to
our unit to work here, without changing clothes and showering the bacteria off
their bodies. There are many times a day when 8-10 officers are up on the deck
where they sit, crammed into an 7x12 foot area...many times up there without
masks on.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

officers up there (all night) without masks on, and when I got down the stairs,
the one who was not our regular, who had already worked in another unit,
proceeds to wipe his bare hand all the way from mid forearm down to his fingertips
across his snotty nose. He then immediately went to typing on the computer and
using the mouse...spreading the bacteria.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

each call...But, the workers doing this are wearing <u>No Gloves</u>...they
grab the phone barehanded, then they wipe off the receiver with a rag in
another bare hand, and then they place protective cellophane (shrink wrap) on
the receiver with their bare hand. They wipe off the keyboard and hang the
phone back up, declaring it properly disinfected. Those workers are spreading
the disease, not getting rid of it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

frontline is that if we get a common cold, the flu, or Covid019, we are sent to
segregation to be held for 14 days without a tv, radio, or tablet for email.
Seg is the place where they send people to be punished, and now that is where
they put prisoners who get sick from risking their lives as frontline workers
for the prison system. So, our reward is to be thrown aside, into the trash if
we get sick helping our own slavemasters operate the prison. If we don’t die
from covid-19, then our reward is to return back into slavery on the frontlines
risking our lives for pennies.</p><p class="MsoNormal">One more reward? They punish you further by
trying to throw away your property when you go to seg. They incorporate this
into part of the punishment anytime someone gets sent to seg. Most of the time
they throw away legally purchased property, claiming it was stolen and gotten
illegally. When you get back from seg, you have to file a complaint, providing
receipts for all that they threw away, and then they refund you a prorated
amount of value for each item based on when you bought it...and you lose
hundreds of dollars in the process as they commit crimes against you and you
can do nothing to stop it… nothing to fight it.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Last fall I was sent to seg for simply
starting a religious fast based on my Christian beliefs. The ticket they gave
me for contraband had almost $500 in personal property listed. They were trying
to throw it all away. They forced me to eat, violating my right to practice my
religion, and only that saved my property. When the seg officer realized that I
had broken no rules and would be returned to my unit after only eating 3
straight meals, he put all my things back in the boxes and said he would leave
it up to my unit to deal with the contraband.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN"> </span>When I got back to my unit, I grabbed all of
my receipts to prove I owned all of it, and they had to <i>amend the ticket</i> and return all my belongings in except for my TV,
which had a crack in its screen, so they forced me to throw it away giving me 7
days punishment for it being cracked. I simply kept it waiting for my new TV
service, at least I could hear my TV shows.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN"> </span>That ticket, which is public record, proves
that they rob prisoners of their property as part of the segregation
punishment...trying to use this bit of illegal cruelty to teach you to fear
breaking the rules. Now...This is part of their punishment for just getting

tested positive for the coronavirus 6 of which are hospitalized due to the
security of Covid-19. The institution is still not taken this seriously they
still are denying inmates the proper use of disinfectants. They expect us not
to properly sanitize our living areas. They spray our towels twice in expect us
to clean our rooms with it yet since the last outbreak we have not been allowed
to clean our rooms at all cuz the institution is on lockdown and we are only
allowed to shower once a week there’s no way the virus is going to leave this
institution they are not cleaning the common areas used by staff or the inmates
they are taken infected inmates from one unit in the institution and placing
them in another part which only makes the other inmates in that unit sick from
the virus yet the staff are not listening to our demands and our health is
being ignored completely. I am in constant fear that I might die I have several
health issues and I have already tested positive and I was not treated at all,
no vaccine no medication. I was moved to the north cell hall in expected to
stay in my cell and I was not even allowed to shower and I am still
experiencing systems now. And I was not treated they took my vitals and told me
to drink plenty of water, my kidneys hurt, I had a headache for the last week
and I get tylenol for other injuries so I take them but they don't work, my
back hurt my throat hurt I feel dizzy. And I am really afraid I will die
because they are not doing anything to help us.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">I wrote up that inmate grievance complaint like you told me to do in I

I was tested positive for Covid-19 virus on 10/20/20 and it felt as if I was
going to do. I had bad headaches, eyes burning, couldn’t breath, taste and
smell gone, I still don’t have any smell or taste. My body still aches and is
fatigued. You know I had filed for that compassionate release back in June and
I feel this should compel them to get us out of prison, because I fear if I get
this virus a second time I will die! They are not equipped or competent enough
to deal with this virus. I just seen Waupun on Fox 6 News and they acknowledge
that it’s overcrowded and Fessahaye says it’s against the law to have prisoners
in double cells especially with this Covid-19 virus and prisoners are getting
it by being forced to be in a cell with another prisoner.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">I am PRC’d out of this prison and been locked up for two plus years,

Curtis Schmidt died
today I heard from inmates I'm sure due to covid-19 with his health problems. I
was pretty good friends with Curtis and its very sad but I'm also very mad for
a lot of reasons. Curtis told me after they denied him from getting out early
that he would probably die in here from covid-19.<br />
<br />
That makes me very mad for a lot of reasons and a ton of inmates on this unit
pissed off and think someone should be charged for negligence on how covid-19
was handled down on our unit. That lead to the death of Curtis Schmidt.
Positive covid-19 inmates were always kept on the unit in quarantine around not
positive inmates. Putting Curtis in danger and other inmates. They kept moving
inmates around on the unit spreading the virus and pissing off inmates at the
same time. Curtis only had a few months left in here. Well the DOC and Governor
Tony Evers just gave him a life sentence of death thanks to not granting him
his early release. Its very sad! That someone had to die from this covid-19
that was supposed to go home to his family with only a few months to go.<br />
<br />
I'm also pissed at all the lies and disrespect around here. A few inmates found
out that the Oshkosh correctional inst. Lied to the public and having there
people print off the false lies and having them sent in to the prison from
websites. Like k-building's covid-19 inmates were NEVER all moved off the unit
in isolation to protect non-covid-19 inmates. So here's an example I tested
positive for covid-19 my cellie tested negative but be didn't get those test
results back for 72 hours or 3 days so my cellie then got moved after those
three days of being in with me who's positive to another negative inmates cell
that was negative too. Now tell me that is the best way of spreading a covid-19
virus. We told the staff that and they still moved him that this was part of
the game plan. Now can you see why I'm mad and the negligence here. That probably
played a part in Curtis Schmidt's death or getting covid-19. They lied to the
news my mom saw on TV on channel 2 news said they were giving inmates 5 free
phone calls due to covid-19 pandemic that was a lie reported by the news. Who
told them that? I can barely make a call or 2 if I'm lucky a week. The phones
stay not being used. Oh don't get me started on phones either so we used to do
time slots for the phones so we can call our families at a reasonable time.
Meaning my mom works 3rd shift she sleeps in the after noon so I try to call
her in the mornings so she can sleep the rest of the day for her to get up for
work. According to the staff the unit manager took away these time slots which
worked good for the inmates and the families on the streets and told the staff
to just go down the teir knocking on doors telling inmates they can now use the
phone. Not taking any consideration for that inmate's family members who can
only answer the phone at a certain time because they have lives of their own
and work too. Why stop time slot sign up when it was working? I know why
because it pisses inmates off! K-building is turning into a hornets nest a lot
of inmates are very on edge. Some been snapping but I've heard and seen why
they getting mad. A lot come to me for advice. I tell them to stay calm but not
sure how long that will last. They don't like being disrespected. Staff would
just tell them " your acting entitled". Using group terms against
inmates not hearing them out.<br />
<br />
The game plan so far I've seen down here is. <br />
1) no cleaning supplies given out to clean cells<br />
2) two showers a week if you not a worker<br />
3) 2 phone calls a week no time slots make call when staff gets you<br />
4) no doing personal laundry so piles up in your dirty cell get caught doing in
in shower or sink you get a conduct report <br />
5)working inmates 7 days a week ( some inmates think they will get more pay for
doing this as they think it was promised to them but true be that is another
"lie" and when they find out on payday will be super pissed off)<br />
6) no looking at property catalogs right now so inmates can't buy personal
property from in here cause they don't know the prices let contractors know JL
Marcus and Union Supply they won't let catalogs come in mail to inmates if sent
in.<br />
I'm sure there's a lot more but you get the idea of what is going on here at
Oshkosh correctional inst. A lot of inmates are getting super mad about this
and its only going to get worse before better. Staff blame the unit manager for
these things say we can't do nothing about it. It's up to the unit manager.
Staff is getting mad too you don't think I hear what they say about each other.
No communication here! Thats problem #1! I think everyone should be clean,
showers, cleaning cells, doing laundry, and doing their best to stay clean to
stop the spread not have weeks of dirty laundry in cells, moved around to
spread the virus (if your going to move them move them to a covid-19 quarantine
unit) the CDC says to stay clean . but I do understand there's no extra room in
the DOC prison system because they never let anyone out early. It's
overpopulated and covid-19 will take lives and bring down that prison
population which I think is the real game plan because our prison system is
broken and nobody wants to fix it nobody cares.<br />
<br />
Everyone's running around crazy here trying to come up with a plan but there
never was one it was too late and it spread like wildfire when it got in here.
But you know what Governor Tony Evers did he blasted the DOC staff here all
over Fox news station saying the only reason covid-19 spread through Oshkosh
correctional inst was because of the staff. Shows how much he cares. He don't
care about inmates or staff that work for him. Thats so disrespectful on so
many levels. Everyone needs to be respectful to each other and come up with a
plan because from what I'm seeing here inmates and staff are not on the same
page and aren't getting along. Even staff ain't getting along with staff. <br />
<br />
I hope everything gets better here and hope the truth comes out about what's
really going on here don't believe the fake news media or what you read online
that things are under control here because they are "not" it's a huge
mess. I pray that everyone is OK in here and if you have a loved one in here
you better call to see if they OK if you haven't heard from them in awhile. I
pray that things get better and things get worked out here before more people
die. Pray for inmate Curtis Schmidt's family there loss is sad and didn't need
to happen.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading my concerns here. I have the freedom of speech. Adam<br />

(11/17/20) they had a update on the covid virus in prisons and the DOC is lying to the news media and the public, because the news lady said that the dept of corrections was providing extensive cleaning supplies, and no inmate transfers. Here at redgranite, they are doing transfers every week, and when the bus <a href="http://co.as/" rel="nofollow" shape="rect" style="color: blue; cursor: pointer;" target="_blank">co.as</a> from Dodge, the inmates getting off the bus are not quarantined , instead they go directly to a unit, and they have been transferring inmates to minimum facilities just last week, and they just took 5 inmate from our unit and quarantined them on H unit for 14 days and once that's done they get shipped out. Redgranite is not providing any cleaning supplies, and the units are not getting cleaned extensively as the DOC claims. Redgranite staff quarantined guys to their cells, and they never kept track of them even though they tested positive, the inmates who were suppose to be quarantined, were up of their cells using the phones, going out side without wearing their mask, yet staff did nothing. One guy got out of quarantine from restrictive housing unit and came back to his cell and they RGCI staff placed this guy in the room not knowing the other guy as positive for covid. Staff are so distinctions and fail yo take this seriously. The DOC is lying to the public, and this needs to be brought forward, and the news media needs to be notified to ensure the public is well aware of what's going on in these prisons. PS: About the only cleaning that is taken place is a few guys go around and spray disinfectant on the door knobs, other then that nothing.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.3333px;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 10pt;"><br /></span></div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 13.3333px;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 10pt; font-style: italic;">Note: We have been badgering the DOC since the beginning to allow disinfectant to inmates- most will not abuse- OR at least plentiful soap = a few weak attempts at soap then nothing.

I'm on Milwaukee Unit, where out of
167 inmates 131 have tested 'positive' for COVID-19. Out of the 5 times I've
been tested all of my results returned Negative! <br />
As it stands, we are on a 23½ hour lockdown. One
cell at a time, only when they know someone is watching. Otherwise, the
positives are mixed w/the negatives. We only have time to get a shower and make
a phone call (20 minutes). You'll have to decide, which one of you or your
cellmate will clean. Captains and Lieutenants are delivering our 'bag meals'
through the traps. <br />

MATC classes are interfered with. Until all unnecessary movement was suspended
we visited our loved ones through Zoom.
Stress levels are increased, anxiety is up and frustration is palpable. We are
a microcosm of society with 1,100 people incarcerated here at KMCI Covid has
shut most operations down. According to an article published by Diana
Dombrowski from the Sheboygan Press out of the 1,100 men incarcerated here 2
out of 3 of us has tested positive for Covid. With only ten cases in early
September one would think preventive measures would have been taken. Which
wasn't the case. By late September, the number of Covid cases spiked from 10 to
over 500 in just a few short weeks. Surprising? If society at as a whole aren't
capable of properly preventing and containing the outbreak of Covid, should we
expect more from prisons? Prisons are arguably the worst institutions in
America, and KMCI response to this pandemic has been one of the worse
responses.<br />
<br />
"Their preventive measures and containment measures were inadequate."
Al Carter who tested positive for Covid told me. "In the beginning when
face masked were mandated by the Governor these officers mocked the idea of wearing
a face mask. And most of the supervisors and unit supervisors did too. They
didn't start wearing mask until it was too late. They didn't take prevention
seriously." He goes on to say that KMCI also did a poor job in containing
the virus."They allowed positives to remain cellies with negatives. Then
we are all touching the same toilets, sinks, door handles, spray bottles.
Positives should have continued to be quarantined on isolated units designed
just for positive cases." <br />
<br />
Mr. Hamilton who tested positive remarked that after he tested positive he
didn't receive medical attention until 6 days after he was told he was
positive. And once he did see the nurses he was told to gurgle salt for his
soar throat, and was given the option of either Ibuprofens or Tylenol to deal
with his headaches. With over 500 positive cases it's impossible for the
medical staff here to treat everybody properly. The numbers, the ratio of
positive cases and medical staff won't allow each individual to receive proper
care.<br />
<br />In addition to inadequate medical care, Our mental health care isn't being
attended to. Prison within themselves are highly stressful and depressing
places, with Covid the stress and depression have only increased. ... No psychologist, or mental health doctors are
available on the uints which only puts an extra burden on officers who are
forced to be many things in one; even though, they don't have the
qualifications. Some officers juggle this role gracefully others resentfully,
begrudgingly, negatively. <br />
<br />Supervisors deal with problems concerning us inmates by sending us to the hole,
or dishing out some form of punishment. Actually solving problems? We don't
view supervisors as problem solvers. So our questions, our frustrations, our
concerns aren't directed toward them like they would be if trust existed. And
the opportunity to reassure and calm that real leaders are capable of during
chaotic times are missed by the lieutenants, captains, unit supervisors and the
administration staff as a whole.<br />
<br />Unlike society who will go back to their normal lives, after Covid prisons will
remain a hot bed for systemic racism. Systemic racism and not Covid is the
illness that plagues KMCI and the WI DOC as a whole. The symptoms to this
disease are the officers lack of basic dignity and respect for us incarcerated.
Another symptom is an officers ability to write a conduct report based on a
perceived, and not an actual threat to
the prison's security operations.<br /> Whole article here: </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/11/kmci-joseph-cook.docx ">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/11/kmci-joseph-cook.docx </a></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">

showing symptoms. now check this out lady-L more and more people started
complaining about being retested so they retested this unit of 59 inmates, we

came back negative, my cellie he tested positive . They moved me into a cell
where the inmate was negative. I use to warn the old cellie about keeping his
hands in mouth daily while we watch tv. He stated he had a CD conditions. He was
tested positive so they moved him. <o:p></o:p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-qHzBbdJNMJ5PaeJQDfUhbo7sFpC9HA8Z_oFYGdLcTDOf4p0k_MZZSn9VV_CO7wQCXghYeessv0Pe-d3ZuPTURHxOtDQYsNvVtOfOr3Cv7E_X2d_LVj7XL_bIF9l9PE9UzeMePrplNYY/s181/Howard+Grady.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="120" data-original-width="181" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-qHzBbdJNMJ5PaeJQDfUhbo7sFpC9HA8Z_oFYGdLcTDOf4p0k_MZZSn9VV_CO7wQCXghYeessv0Pe-d3ZuPTURHxOtDQYsNvVtOfOr3Cv7E_X2d_LVj7XL_bIF9l9PE9UzeMePrplNYY/s0/Howard+Grady.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Howard Grady<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /><i><o:p></o:p></i></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/osci-howard-grady-10-12-covid.pdf">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/osci-howard-grady-10-12-covid.pdf</a><o:p></o:p><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/osci-george-manders-7-20-20.pdf"></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHLKTj-FsSRDg5fvLbJM5MzrGRAO8M19KMItJGXVNza-xX-zAJWR5iWT4wWIoV_kw_WFTMjH1jnsyXGojUSH89MApXxDmkqPJ5J7_h3Qkgc1Z2Wlwcv6Tj99-TSPirpdZIc70Ifjh3FoU/s140/david+Lee+Greenwood.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="138" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHLKTj-FsSRDg5fvLbJM5MzrGRAO8M19KMItJGXVNza-xX-zAJWR5iWT4wWIoV_kw_WFTMjH1jnsyXGojUSH89MApXxDmkqPJ5J7_h3Qkgc1Z2Wlwcv6Tj99-TSPirpdZIc70Ifjh3FoU/s0/david+Lee+Greenwood.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">David L Greenwood<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">OSCI David L Greenwood 363177 OSCI 1983, 37 out 10 30 2026 TIS </span> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"> (sum) I
never thought I’d get the virus! My family has been distraught and outright
furious with the DOC! They’ve been contacting Madison , news media outlets to
expose what’s going on here. They had over 60 positive case of Covid in this dorm
and have us quarantined on one side of this dorm. They’ve been putting new
cases in with us that have been quarantined for 14 days as I speak. They just
retested the negative inmates on the other side again to see if the are infected.
A lot of us are still having symptoms of covid after 14 days and the unit
manager, Kathy Sabel , told us that we cannot get reinfected per HSU staff buts
its been confirmed that you can!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">I’m in the process
of exhausting my administrative remedies because I wasn’t sent here to catch an
infectious deadly disease! The ICRS has been giving me trouble as I attempt to
file my complaints on the conditions of confinement on the dormitory. They are
mailing me file individual complaints on each horrendous condition. This is wrong
and conditions of confinement issues falls under the totality of circumstances
approach clearly! They are trying to limit my complaint voice, and discourage
me from pursuing this. We/re only allowed one complaint per week but when it comes
to health and safety we are exempt form this restriction. These conditions put me i=at a risk for reinfection clearly. <o:p></o:p></p><b><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="background: rgb(187, 226, 240); font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></b><p></p>

situation. Officers are supposedly trained before getting this job as well as
some sort of ongoing training. That thought is questionable due to some
officers and other prison staff conduct. We are constantly told to be patient
and stop pressing the button asking questions but we are locked in a cell and
have no way of communicating unless we press the button in order to ask
questions. I needed ice and water and a officer told me I could get it then
another officer told me to wait. So an hour later I asked again and was told OK
someone will be down soon. Two hours later I asked again and was told we are in
the middle of something. Finally a officer was doing a round and allows me to
get ice and water after 4 hours. I was also told I could use the phone after
another lady was done. As soon as I picked the phone up to call home a
different officer told me to hang the phone up and lock in the cell. I explained
to the officer I was given permission by the previous officer and she said no
lock in. So it appears there is no need for consistency in this institution and
no need for professionalism.<span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">When I asked to speak to a sergeant during the
last couple of days they say OK he will be down but the sergeant never comes.
At least tonight a sergeant came but he did not honor the previous officer
orders that I could use the phone. What I appreciated was he came to address
the concern and he maintained integrity. Some officers here are not displaying
integrity, honesty, concern, compassion or even adhering to their job duties.
Sometimes when the button is pressed the officer will come on the speaker and
cut it back off without even seeing what was needed. Also the other day the
same officer waited 10 plus minutes before answering the speaker and that is
not good when people could be having a medical emergency. At this point some
staff is using the lock down as punishment. Its easy for them to ask women with
no training as well as all types of mental health issues and separation anxiety
to be patient but they have training as well as get to go home to their
families and can't show the patients they looking for. Its backwards!!!</span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">I also had video court today and was 30 minutes
late for it due to a lack of preparation and concern. We wait for months for
court dates but they don't care here. I started asking them to prepare for this
over a week ago but I was still somehow not able to do it. I finally was able
to call in because they refused to allow me to go into another part of the
building to use the other zoom computer set up once seeing they didn't know how
to use the one that was in front of us.</span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">In most cases Covid is coming in institutions
through the staff but we get locked in and deprived of talking on the phone to
our loved ones and cut off from all human contact due to them spreading the
virus to us. We have to keep masks on at all times out of the cell but some
staff don't follow that same policy and its a double standard. How about the
staff has to stay on grounds and spend the nights here and get a 15 minute call
when done with their shift in order to control the spread. We are all facing
challenges but we in a way it seems like we are forgotten about and pictured as
unaffected. We are at times treated like our need to check on our families is a
gift they will grant to us if they feel like it instead of it being our right
or need. Many staff members will not even try to see our perspectives and they
take a power trip role and abuse their positions by talking to people like they
are titles instead of humans. What they don't realize is this could be them.</span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">We were told we were being tested for covid
again soon now we were told today we are not be tested but just staying on lock
down to prevent the chance of spread of covid. There is tremendous amounts of
misinformation and no way to tell what is happening from day to day. It is
super frustrating and unrealistic to be expected to be OK mentally and
emotionally. Covid has shown so many flaws in so many different systems but
people want to turn a blind eye to what is clear.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">JCI Jose Soto- Guzman 535929 (1975, 44) out 8 10 22 TIS </span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid2SMgh69lGjt1xeEOkvm5TxJW9FMhMoNQFCE5X1zCr5cj1LzSdDMNFnQyq5ruSN2n9ungXMaI9p1I7ZO8rKGhuJrEuQg_C42suXNyBLrLvsSwnLsoNH_P89Dpw39ssC9f33T_LyloCIU/s140/Jose+Sot-Guzman.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid2SMgh69lGjt1xeEOkvm5TxJW9FMhMoNQFCE5X1zCr5cj1LzSdDMNFnQyq5ruSN2n9ungXMaI9p1I7ZO8rKGhuJrEuQg_C42suXNyBLrLvsSwnLsoNH_P89Dpw39ssC9f33T_LyloCIU/s0/Jose+Sot-Guzman.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">JoseSoto- Guzman<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjba9Btgp8Clwj3u5srWUt4UeAhYRf8fXs0GAdIP52RAGT6xEl6NSlTlpKPnGdyASWs5goLFkVJMnjVaS3xcCgDXUYxxaPT9uMxsoZwKLaCiHSXw5QAA3xPMZgE0ksPQM0RXXEbKCP53_0/s140/Ron+schilling.jpg" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjba9Btgp8Clwj3u5srWUt4UeAhYRf8fXs0GAdIP52RAGT6xEl6NSlTlpKPnGdyASWs5goLFkVJMnjVaS3xcCgDXUYxxaPT9uMxsoZwKLaCiHSXw5QAA3xPMZgE0ksPQM0RXXEbKCP53_0/s0/Ron+schilling.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Ron Schilling<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/jci-jose-soto-guzman-7-3-20.pdf">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/jci-jose-soto-guzman-7-3-20.pdf</a><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">KMCI</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">KMCI Ron Schilling 32219 life sentence OL</span></p><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /><o:p></o:p></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;">KMCI Daniel R Fuerst 141339 1938 82 out 11 17 29 OL</span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpl5z_FI5HHMKRsF1SdDjQP_Roa5w1E0Zsx-jFelYJ_CX20RP9THjbjjPJ1SsMqDyHLr3vvjLm5QkoTf4D5Qf6rEg4q1YKBx55EG4_G43G53X-y0BygXuQrHxUPsKgifyaeJzf5KO0kzY/s140/Daniel+Fuerst.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="140" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpl5z_FI5HHMKRsF1SdDjQP_Roa5w1E0Zsx-jFelYJ_CX20RP9THjbjjPJ1SsMqDyHLr3vvjLm5QkoTf4D5Qf6rEg4q1YKBx55EG4_G43G53X-y0BygXuQrHxUPsKgifyaeJzf5KO0kzY/s0/Daniel+Fuerst.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Daniel Fuerst<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/11/kmci-daniel-fuerst-10-26-30.pdf">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/11/kmci-daniel-fuerst-10-26-30.pdf</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">GBCI</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">GBCI Milan Stewart 643607 1988, 22 out 6 29 23 covid

unfair practices here. It NEEDS all new oversight/NEW views. 4<sup>1/2</sup>yrs

</span><!--[endif]-->It’s a lot louder that it ever was before,
especially at night , when staff allow excessive noise. It leads to more excessive
unruly inmates, even outside of their cells. Controlling them while they’re in
their cells, is equally important as outside of their cells, And staff really haven’t been controlling

share with you the problem we are having in segregation with mentally ill
inmates not receiving adequate mental health treatment: 1)lack of PSU staff (psychologist,
psychiatrists ) 2)no treatment programs for those who self harm 3) the PSU
staff have not been following policies and procedures regarding psychological
conduct reports for their actions, and they continue to house mentally ill
inmates in segregation , even though they understand these inmates don’t adjust
well in seg. So far I’ve wrote complaints and exhausted my administrative
remedies but this problem is so much bigger that me peggy. Its sad,, its
immoral and its torture that’s being justified.my nest move is a civil suit cause

you to let you know what kind of tricks the DOC is up to right now. I figured
It would be safer to write this. During
this pandemic we at Fox Lake had been covid- free among us inmates . On Oct 9<sup>th</sup>
it was noticed by us that the DOC covid-19 dashboard showed that we had 2
inmates with covid-19 . To this day FLCI staff have not notified us that Covid-19
is in the institution. In fact, most staff lie to us and saying that its’ not
here. However, one sergeant here at FLCI ( wishes to remain anonymous) told me
that not only was covid-19 here but that the DOC put it here. He said that the
DOC transferred to inmates to FLCO when they tested positive . Both inmates went
straight into our seg unit for medical isolation. Now I am, told that the number of positive
inmates is up to 10 here at Fox Lake. To me this is a very scary situation.
Since the DOC is trying to hide this. For me personally, it’s extremely scary. Since
my asthma makes me high risk for covid- 19 . Also I live in a high isk environment, while being
high risk. So now that the virus is in the institution , if it gets in my unit,
I’ll get it. I wanted to write this to
you because I know you will get this information out for us.<a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/flci-adam-d-fields-101220.pdf">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/flci-adam-d-fields-101220.pdf</a></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlJamMgKdCH2hXEs3c1eaHbNS59aEZwir6UI0VqRkfjW_LNArWoUiM2KXd-P8U2gxw0hChNo29LGHBhzpPu3sHShQrEg7gg4P_Fzpc6MSc-e0F61dupll1Sjcsc3NIVnoXOb9_sDMqs94/s140/phil+Keller.jpg" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlJamMgKdCH2hXEs3c1eaHbNS59aEZwir6UI0VqRkfjW_LNArWoUiM2KXd-P8U2gxw0hChNo29LGHBhzpPu3sHShQrEg7gg4P_Fzpc6MSc-e0F61dupll1Sjcsc3NIVnoXOb9_sDMqs94/s0/phil+Keller.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Phil Keller <br /></td></tr></tbody></table>CCI<p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">CCI

worst. My test results came back on Friday October 23<sup>, </sup>2020. At first
I was feeling horrible and the nurse only took my vitals one time and that’s the
day my test results came back, my vital signs was checked 1 other time about 10
days before then because my cellie was feeling sick and they had moved him out
of the cell with me and put him in the north cell hall on isolation but they left

the ambulance came inside the prison to take someone to the hospital .. then
about an hour later they found inmate Kenneth Hall dead in his cell . The reason
I know is because another inmate above me on K Range said they brought Kenneth
Hall out in a body bag and many speculating that he died due to covid. It ‘s in this prison bad. The news said it was
174 inmates test positive but it’s now more than 300 inmates. https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/11/wci-t-franklin-death-and-pos102620.pdf<p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">WCI Chance Wallow</span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; font-size: 10pt;">458649 1987 , 33 out 6 20 21 TIS</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">on Covid and Kitchen Work at Waupun Correctional<u>. </u></span></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqXQJZ545kocnh4ibq9FRaxdeXjuakw_AWYv4pf1exRtV2eFetLOpUruon8c376hiGw7ie5RpWF7_H3dw6uqAUqMKKBBbOTNfCsy2e02mMZKqEQTmpernPI2hdTJVyCBr4Lqvjh_weoCs/s140/Chance+Wallow.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="140" data-original-width="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqXQJZ545kocnh4ibq9FRaxdeXjuakw_AWYv4pf1exRtV2eFetLOpUruon8c376hiGw7ie5RpWF7_H3dw6uqAUqMKKBBbOTNfCsy2e02mMZKqEQTmpernPI2hdTJVyCBr4Lqvjh_weoCs/s0/Chance+Wallow.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">chance Wallow<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/wci-chance-wallow-8-24-20.pdf"><br /></a><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">Also, on the phone you asked me to tell you about some of this Covid
19 stuff going on. Well, there are multiple inmates that have it in this
institution. Just in this cell hall we have about 40. They are so short of
people in the kitchen that they got a whole bunch of us volunteering. We
started with about 21 people, now we are down to 12 people and we’re working
430am to 630pm. The southwest cell hall is the only cell hall that they are
letting work. It’s very crazy and unethical the way they treat us here. I guess
the positive thing about us working in the kitchen is we get to shower twice
and we get to eat good and be out of our cell.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; font-size: 10pt;">

EJ. I am working on getting more definite information. On Thursday October July
30<sup>th</sup> he had a medical emergency in the shower around 7:30- 8:30pm. He
told staff and HSU that he was not feeling well. As the story goes he may have
had a blood clot in his foot that traveled to his heart. During the 6am count
staff failed to wake him for standing count. Around 7am breakfast was being
passed by the tier tenders and he failed to wake up. At that time they notified
staff. After HSU, the white shirt the ambulance and all that stuff they carried
him past our cells in a black tarp with handles. After seeing the ambulance
people not moving fast it was clear what was happening. As they were waiting fr
the coroner we could clearly hear them joking and laughing. Bogus, Even though
we are doing time we are still human beings and even if we don’t have loved
ones , Jesus loves us.I look at my issues and see they are really small
potatoes compared to what really is going on in this place. I complain about my
diabetes and diet and that I cannot afford a pair of shoes but I am still
breathing and fighting to stay that way. Okay, his real name is Eric Johnson,
better known to those around him as E.J. I appreciate your caring enough to look
into this as I know his family will. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh7nyhzHjna4zCvdbVMYpjR0oAdjurgn4n-5tqnv4d_VK4qZwWd_ywoWAVV1vbJlgIimBCCoou9ROgnittp9WnRe-MU4Z2EYOoc8TsgEHNvXmvkO_pAfXwr46h0P96uPsm1MUbHTVqVXk/s120/Jermain+Hampton.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="120" data-original-width="107" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh7nyhzHjna4zCvdbVMYpjR0oAdjurgn4n-5tqnv4d_VK4qZwWd_ywoWAVV1vbJlgIimBCCoou9ROgnittp9WnRe-MU4Z2EYOoc8TsgEHNvXmvkO_pAfXwr46h0P96uPsm1MUbHTVqVXk/s0/Jermain+Hampton.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Jermaine Hampton<br /><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><a href="https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/wci-nathan-delano-ej-diedall.pdf">https://ffupstuff.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/wci-nathan-delano-ej-diedall.pdf</a><o:p></o:p><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">WCI Jermaine A Hampton 406289 , 1982, 38 out11 18 21 TIS</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">(part)there’s

institution is still not taken this seriously they still are denying inmates
the proper use of disinfectants. They expect us not to properly sanitize our
living areas. They spray our towels twice in expect us to clean our rooms with
it yet since the last outbreak we have not been allowed to clean our rooms at
all cuz the institution is on lockdown and we are only allowed to shower once a
week there’s no way the virus is going to leave this institution they are not
cleaning the common areas used by staff or the inmates they are taken infected
inmates from one unit in the institution and placing them in another part which
only makes the other inmates in that unit sick from the virus yet the staff are
not listening to our demands and our health is being ignored completely. I am

I was tested positive for Covid-19 virus on 10/20/20 and it felt as if I was
going to do. I had bad headaches, eyes burning, couldn’t breath, taste and
smell gone, I still don’t have any smell or taste. My body still aches and is
fatigued. You know I had filed for that compassionate release back in June and
I feel this should compel them to get us out of prison, because I fear if I get
this virus a second time I will die! They are not equipped or competent enough
to deal with this virus. I just seen Waupun on Fox 6 News and they acknowledge
that it’s overcrowded and Fessahaye says it’s against the law to have prisoners
in double cells especially with this Covid-19 virus and prisoners are getting
it by being forced to be in a cell with another prisoner.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Georgia",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-fareast-font-family: Georgia;">I am PRC’d out of this prison and been locked up for two plus years,

bag lunches for all meals of the day? I am just asking because since all the
units at Stanley are currently on quarantine and unit 4 is the only one that's
not. This is worrying me for the fact its already hard not being able to see my
family. I have not seen them in over a year now and 4 months ago I lost my
father. My mother is now all alone and now having to worry about not getting
home in time to see her and my kids before its to late. This is cruel and
unusual punishment. People who do not have a life sentence and that are serving
there first time in prison should be placed on house arrest and probation
during these hard times. Since the prisons can't handle taking care of us
properly during these hard times and the fact that how are any of us suppose to
get back on are feet if we have no family to go home to and no one to lean on
to get back on are feet. What are we suppose to do? This is constantly on my
mind and I don't want to loose any one else. I love my whole family with no
equivocations and to loose any of them due to being in here over just an
allegation puts me over the top. These courts are all about money and people
should stand up for them selves. When is it going to be enough? This is so hard
being away from are family and now even harder because of this virus in prison
and out there loosing family. Nothing can be worse then being stuck in here
eating the same food every day and not seeing any loved ones while everyone is
dying and for us to have to loose time without being there to help and see are
family before they are gone. Please let us know what can be done? This is a
very sad time the whole world is going thru and for us not being able to see
any one at all while loosing family. Thank you for your time, pease be with
you.</p><p class="MsoNormal">

Covid 19 monitoring. To date, none of us have been tested, and staff is allowed
to come and go,often working double shifts throughout the building. I find that
interesting, considering staff is probably how COVID found its way here in the
first place. We are confined to our rooms and had no opportunity to contact
loved ones before the confinement. We have no access to library books, day
space,phones,fresh air, or even catalogues to order supplies as we sit,watching
other units enjoying the sunshine outside. This is my 3RD LOCKDOWN SINCE JUNE.
This is happening repeatedly every 4-6 weeks now,and no matter what we do,we
women here are at the mercy of incoming/outgoing staff every day. By now,the
DOC Should have released many of the low risk, short term ladies here. The
current accommodations cannot afford us day space use due to overpopulation in
the buildings spaces. Most of us will,when finally released,will have become so
traumatized or embittered by the Wisconsin prison system,that we may be worse
off than before our incarceration. There is no REHABILITATION here as all
programs have ceased,along with work release opportunities. Just sitting on
dead time,going stir crazy like caged animals on a daily basis,with no ability
to communicate with our support systems(I.e..family ) as each day rolls into
the next. Wasted lives seems to be the new status quo as we trudge into our 8th
month with zero help from our "leaders". PROUD OF CALIFORNIA..... THEY
SEEM TO " GET IT" as they flex their power towards new
policies/visions for our citizens BESIDES LOCKING EVERYONE UP.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 10pt;">Right now at this moment the Robert E. Ellsworth
correctional center has a inmate that has tested positive for COVID 19 better
known as the corona virus. A inmate going home on Tuesday was tested as part of
her release planning and the test results came back positive. She and the women
that lived in the room with her have been placed on quarantine. Though they are
on quarantine there is still a lot of people's health at risk because the
center is so small and everyone in the center comes into contact with each other
daily. Rather in meals, in passing in the hall way or outside with each other
where no one where's masks we've all come into contact with these lady's. One
of which is suppose to be a student where I go daily for computer legal work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

That is clearly putting the lives of those in the center at a much higher risk.
This is illegal, I know it is something that can be done other then to put our
lives at risk.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

495483 GBCI:Here’s the rundown of what’s going on here. Nothing’s changed here.
It’s still outside temps in here and
& they rejected our fans in seg.I’m still in seg and they’re trying
to force me to double cell. I’m on my second refusal to double cell. I used to
be red tagged. They’re putting covid patients in seg too, w/out their property
and not medically assisting them. None of us have our property. Inmates daily scream for their fans. I’m not allowed
rec, because rear cuffs don’t fit me. I
don’t get to come out , 30 + days of in-cell. And their mistreating me for
refusing to double cell. Can you please look into the Geneva Convention 1955
Act that lists its first act as 1) Individual cells shall not accommodate more
than one individual overnight,<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;">I am also a PSU
patient and state law states that WI
prisons cannot force double celling of a psychological patient. Can you find
that state law- 1990’s maybe. Also I enclosed a letter, showing you mail
doesn’t always get sent out from seg, doesn’t always get mailed. ( Note: letter
is enclosed from friend confirming that she did not get his letters) I hear
stories of them tossing out our mail, but I am not accusing anyone. I do know
they’re creating more issues that I’ve ever seen before in 15 ½ year of
confinement. Also, I’m a model inmate, I
write a supervisor that she’s smart and very intelligent and awesome and it led
to 5 tickets, mistreatment, 50 days so far n seg and I‘m considered model
behavior, LOL. I’m perplexed, others
here won’t write , for fear of their retaliation. I was sent here for refusing
to double cell at FCLI and WSPF. Now, 4 ½ years later, I’m in seg here, for the
same thing. But at least WSPF has AC in
seg ( asks me to help him get moved to WSPF) I have 111/2 years to do and they
are threatening indefinite tickets and seg time here for refusing to double
cell> I’m also a big muscle bound 322 lbs and read cuffs don’t fit and I
need a floor level cell and they’re not don’t accommodate them. I just want to
do my time w/out troubles. You know I do not frivolously complain. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"> Alfonso Gonzalez, 114135 GBCI: “it’a hot in
