Yes I found the numbers at http://doc.sc.gov/covid.html It shows hundreds there are positive for COVID and most of the prison guards are sick too. They should NOT be working around people if they think they might be sick. With them being the only ones around you it shows negligence of the prisons to expose all the prisoners to COVID-19. We on the outside need to get the CDC there to hold them responsible for this massive screw up. The prisons are about to be sued like crazy by the families of those incarcerated. And all of it could have been avoided if prison staff had taken it more seriously. I am glad you are okay John, please try to stay safe. I will start calling lawyers to see who might help you. You should not be neglected and exposed. It's a Constitutional violation on many levels, and at this point, the damage has been done. Now they have to prepare for the coming legal storm. I will also make copies of this, and all mail, for your lawyer. In case the prison tries to not give you your mail or block it, it is still on record. And, if they do block it, that will only add to the lawsuits.
Gary! your last sentence made me chuckle. Thank you for sharing this piece. It’s inspiring and makes me want to foster change not only in my life, but to benefit others. Wishing you the best and keep writing.
