It would seem highly unlikely that anyone could successfully validate your claim that p-dorm records would validate your allegations as factual. In part, this would have to do with records involving mental health assessments.

So, "calling the masses" to protest inhumane treatment based on unsubstantiated allegations seems yet another baseless, bored rant.

Have a good day.

Don't know the players here but I'm sorry you were disrespected and mistreated. My personal experience with convicts has been 95% negative and 5% very positive. My therapist says I'm a poor judge of character :)

Good luck. Don't give up on your dream of helping that ONE that will make a difference.

c) If an inmate is housed for more than 60 days, the ICT shall interview the inmate and prepare a formal assessment and evaluation report after each consecutive 60 day period in disciplinary confinement. Such reports may be in a brief paragraph form on the Classification Log in OBIS detailing the basis for confinement, what has transpired since the last report, the decision concerning continued disciplinary confinement, and the basis for that decision. Close management inmates in disciplinary confinement status are excluded from this formal assessment as the existing close management review process will include review of the inmate’s disciplinary confinement status.

Fla DOC has very specific rules regarding Disciplinary Confinement (referenced by Clarke)

(8) Review and Release from Disciplinary Confinement.
(a) A member of the ICT shall review the cases of inmates in disciplinary confinement every week. The goal shall be toward returning an inmate to the open population as soon as the facts of the case indicate that this can be done safely.
(b) Any inmate assigned to disciplinary confinement for more than 30 days shall be given a psychological screening assessment by a mental health professional to determine the inmate’s mental condition. The assessment shall include a personal interview if deemed necessary by the mental health professional. The psychologist or psychological specialist shall prepare a report to the ICT regarding the results of the assessment with recommendations. The ICT shall then make a decision regarding continuation of confinement. If the decision is to continue confinement, a psychological screening assessment shall be completed at least every 90-day period.

"P-dorm records over the past decade will support these allegations as factual". Assuming you have grieved this situation in the past...can you please cite the records on which you are relying? WHAT RECORDS SUPPORT YOUR ALLEGATIONS, please?

Paul and Sally,
Thanks for your comments, the cause for prison rights is a great one, and I was very proud when I was appointed vice-president of cure arm, only to have it yanked from me for no reason, as I stated I hadn't received any requests for sending out communications and up to when I was removed I was doing all the work needed, time, postage and supplies cost me a good amount but I didn't care because I believed in the cause, and this hurts a lot

"by doing what I'm doing here, is putting my life in jeopardy". Actually, by doing what you DID - you put your life in jeopardy.

Hi Robert,

Very interesting post! Gives you something to really think about! I, like yourself, don't believe that I could ever forgive someone that took a loved one from me! I don't know that I believe that someone truly can, but that is just my opinion!

Thank you Lynette for the heads up. Obviously I didn't do my homework :(

It is not nor was it ever my intention to "volunteer" and have it cost me anything more than my time.

I am now rescinding my offer to assist cure-arm. I'm allergic to drama :)

Thank you again for your sharing your experience.
