Subject: Denial of Recreation and acts of Reprisal

FACTS
I'm coming to regarding issues of reprisal. Where a staff member is calling me a snitch, because I've continued to file grievances and write to the legislature regarding the denial of recreation, and packing 50 plus inmates on a rec yard, that was designed for 28. I already know what members of this administration has been telling you, and will continue to tell you ". Inmate Clark is lying to you. This is what he does when he doesn't get his way." Well if anyone is telling you that, then they are lying to you to try to cover up what's going on here. Let me explain something. Most everything that I tell you, can be supported by viewing DC6-229 Special Housing records, and or incident report's, as well as video. And I'll support anything I say by submitting to a polygraph/ lie detector/ voice stress analysis. In fact I'm pleading with you to request one. Only so there will be no doubt whatsoever in your mind, about who's telling the truth. And if I was lying, they would have taken disciplinary action under 33-601.314 section 9- 10 " Lying to a staff member or others is official capacity. " Which carries 60 day's in disciplinary confinement. They haven't , and want write this DR because they know what I'm saying is true, and most can be easily proven through records. Am I writing because I'm not getting my way? Absolutely! But I'm asking and complaining about stuff for which we're entitled to, yet we're being denied of. This administration doesn't won't to ensure that we get our recreation. And it all falls on the shoulders of P-dorm administration Sgt, Sgt Blue who's been in this building right at ten years. Him and I fell out in February 2015. I had written a letter to the Assistant Warden, to try to get three, two hour recreation periods as is the case of Close management see 33-601.800 section (10),(m). Some how Sgt Blue, got a hold of that letter. I want get into why he was mad. But during a make up rec, in or about February 2015, it was cold outside, maybe 40 degrees. The wind starts blowing and it begin's to rain. The inmates ask to come back in. Staff stated to all the inmates on the yard, "Your not going in, we're going to make sure Ronald Clark gets his full three hours!!" This was a failed attempt to get other inmates to jump on me. This was a clear 8th Amendment violation. Its cold we're wet, and all of us inmates are huddled up in the corner, trying to get away from the wind and rain. This was an act of torture!!!
I filed a grievance on this issue. So that letter to Assistant Warden, and the grievance on this, should be in my records. You can find the DC6-229 from that day, which I believe was a Friday. And identify every inmate that was out there that day on the yard ,by going through the DC6-229's down here on the south side.
Fighting over our recreation isn't something I just started. Its been a constant tug of war with Sgt Blue and his yard crew.
I currently have two grievances reprisals before the the office of the Secretary of the FDOC. One is involving a Sgt Rulevich, who on Monday December 14,2020 while pulling me for a rec, was announcing to all the staff and inmates that inmate Clark is snitching. Which he continued to do as he was pulling us back in off the yard. Sgt Rulevich, attempted this same thing in the summer of 2019, telling inmates up stairs, as they were coming to the yard,(that I was already on) that if anyone jumps on Clark, that they haven't seen anything. And no DR's will be written. The inmates know what I'm doing, is for all of us. In fact a lot of them tank me for it. For they want their rec,they just don't want the retaliation that goes with speaking out in an attempt to get what is rightfully theirs. Not only have the inmates witnessed what they've done to me. But staff has done this same thing to Jason Stephens over filing grievances. And I'm sure he's willing to speak to you. And if questioned, "IN CONFIDENCE" outside the ear's of UCI staff, and the Administration, I'm certain many inmates will confirm that staff has attempted to use inmates against me, as well as Jason Stephens and Robert Trease. Who spoke out against former admin rec officer McCalvin back in May 2020. For Co McCalvin stole inmate Trease's ID card and took it to the canteen and ordered $7. worth of canteen. Co McCalvin was copying what he had witnessed his superiors doing. Staff put so much pressure on Trease that he attempted suicide.
Sgt Rulevich has been running around bragging that he has over a dozen use of force's against inmates. And there's a current investigation pending. against him, in this building for jumping on Enoch Hall, several months ago. So he has a history of unethical and unprofessional conduct already in his files.
You will find attached to this an essay entitled "FALSIFYING STATE DOCUMENTS AND LYING TO OFFICIAL'S." Which can be support through record's video and again I'm more than willing to submit to a polygraph/ lie detector/ voice stress analysis. This essay will show you the rec issue's as well as the condition issues here in P- dorm, from overflowing toilets to ants biting inmates while sleeping and more.
As you can and will see, change is needed. And I'm praying that you will be the catalyst to bringing about this change. I thank you for your time and help.
Sincerely Ronald Wayne Clark Jr.
