Hi everyone, I'm enclosing a 4pg report concerning the attempted murder on my life way back in 1997 at PBSP. As you can see, I have blackened out the names of the guilty only because I have to, it's for privacy reasons so please bear with me on that, OK. I would say I blackened the names to protect the innocent but I'm the only innocent person in this report. Pelican Bay State Prison aka PBSP has a real bad reputation for violence in its joint. I'm going to explain this whole incident in my words later but for now I'm giving you the point of view of the staff at PBSP. Everyone can't wait to see the photos of this incident, I know, and I have them. I will post 5 photos at a time, I have 10 photos to post. I'm posting these photos because I want everyone to know the truth about prison. "The raw truth". When I post topics like bullied by a guard it's all the truth and it needs to be said. The real prison stories need to be told by the people who live them, not the drama TV shows you. The media and TV don't ever get it right. They don't tell the truth. You have to live it to know the real truth. The shit I post about PBSP is all real. I'm showing the photos/reports. The guards caused me to get stabbed. I'll explain briefly how it was their fault and how all of it could have been avoided but staff chose to allow this incident. In fact, I'll post an IPG report called Cell Door Incidents. When a race of inmates are at war and the guards open the cell doors, what happens? We attack each other and the guards know it. Some staff love to watch the attacks and the reports I post prove it, period.

On Oct 29, 1997 at Pelican Bay State Prison "A" Facility at 9am yard release, the white inmates attacked every Northern Mexican inmate on the yard. Yes, weapons were used. This incident happened on 2nd watch. Why that is important, I'll explain. Prison guards in CA work 3 shifts, first, 2nd, 3rd watch. All 8hr shifts. So 2nd watch "officers-pigs" work from 6am till 2. As I said, the incident was at 9am yard release. By 2 o'clock 3 watch officers were on and the prison was on lockdown due to the racial riot between the whites/Northerners. 3rd watch guards missed the riot so they didn't see it. Now I want you to read this 4pg report that I'm posting with this post. You can see that the staff opened my cell door for my shower and then opened up a Northern Mexican's cell door. That's why I was attacked. It's called retaliation. After all the Northerners were attacked by the whites that morning so they wanted their get backs, it's normal, right? Well, PBSP staff knew that if the whites and North Mex were on the tier together after that riot that day that there would be another incident. So as you can see by this report, I was attacked due to PBSP staff being stupid. They got me stabbed, it's obvious by the report. They set me up. They got me hit - hurt. That morning after the riot, the staff was supposed to keep the whites and Mex Northerners away from each other. It was a staff order. So how was I attacked? Staff love to see us fight/stab etc. The top shower is where I was rushed. I'll post the other 5 photos of me, my face-wounds in my next post. Respectfully, Donnie.

On Wednesday, October 29, 1997 at approximately 1610 hours, Unit A8, Control Officer [redacted] was conducting a controlled shower program when inmate [redacted], A8-126u, who was showering in the lower tier shower of C section signaled to Officer [redacted] that he was done. Officer [redacted] unlocked the lower tier shower and opened cell A8-126, assigned to inmates [redacted] and [redacted]. [Redacted] exited the cell and began talking at another cell just down the tier. [Redacted] remained in the shower. Officer [redacted] directed his attention to the two Unit Floor Officers that were working in B section, he then noticed [redacted] exit the shower and proceed to the upper tier stopping to talk at cell A8-225. Officer [redacted] checked on the Officers in B section, when he looked back at C section he observed [redacted] on top of inmate TINSLEY, H-71715, A8-228u, who was lying on the upper tier shower floor. TINSLEY had been showering in the upper tier shower. Officer [redacted] activated his personal alarm, and yelled "get down" while raising his assigned 37mm Gas Gun. [Redacted] spun around and threw an unknown object to the dayroom floor below. Both [redacted] and [redacted] got down on the floor. While Officer [redacted] was alerting his partners and opening doors for responding staff, [redacted] made his way downstairs and laid down on the tier in front of his cell. Responding staff entered the unit and placed handcuffs on [redacted] and TINSLEY. TINSLEY was escorted to the unit rotunda where Medical Technical Assistant (MTA) [redacted] began administering first aid, TINSLEY had sustained several stab wounds. Officer [redacted] discovered an inmate manufactured stabbing weapon on the day room floor. The weapon consisted of a sharpened metal rod, possibly from a state issue belt buckle, protruding from a melted plastic cylindrical handle.

Security and Investigations (S&I) Officers [redacted] and S. [redacted] responded to the incident. Officer [redacted] photographed [redacted] and the weapon before collecting it from Officer [redacted]. Officer [redacted] stayed with TINSLEY and photographed his injuries. [Redacted] was escorted to a Facility holding cell. TINSLEY was taken to the Facility clinic by wheelchair and from there transported to the Infirmary Emergency Room for further treatment. TINSLEY sustained puncture wounds to his left cheek, top right shoulder, mid right back, left back, left rib area, right pec area, above right knee, left calf, right foot, and various abrasions. [Redacted] sustained an abrasion on his right shoulder and two pinpoint scratches on his inner left forearm. There were no other staff or inmate injuries as result of this incident. TINSLEY was later returned to the Facility. [Redacted] and TINSLEY were rehoused in Administrative Segregation. Associate Warden [redacted], the Administrative Officer of the Day, was on duty at the time and was apprised of the incident.
