THE HOLE

THE HOLE . . . . . .

Friday 11/04/11 the first night my son spent at the jail they stuck him in the hole to prevent him from killing himself.


The hole is about 10x10 and there's a mattress with a blanket and a toilet that doesn't work and no toilet paper. Wolfe asked for toilet paper but they just ignored him. The threw him in their naked and that's how he stayed for 24 hours. When he got out he told the guard that if that's how they keep people from killing themselves it's not going to work. And the guard said that that's how they do it there.

Finally got my son's glasses from property & my first visit

Drove 2 1/2 hours to see my son tonite. He looked well, but he wasn't feeling well. He said something about breakfast and having the shits in public is no fun.
I told him I'm blogging and putting together a website and that people need to know about what's happened to him and about our judicial system  and these inhumane jails. He agreed and said to get out the word. I told him I'd keep it anonymous and he said he didn't care, let them know. He didn't do anything wrong.. Of course the inmates and guards won't know. They think he got busted with pot. He should be there. He accidentally downloaded 11 child porn videos along with 2331 music videos when he would do a mass download from Limewire, which is now closed just because of that reason. Convenient I say. 2 of them he didn't look at because he didn't know they were there. And the others were partials and when he saw what they were he deleted them. He's 20 for christs sake. He's not going to think.. gee.. this is illegal, he just thought it was something he wasn't interested in and delete. But our country doesn't feel the same way. . but I'm going off in tangents here.

Wolfe   got his glasses tonite. He's only been asking for them since last Friday when he arrived. The guard gave it to him wrapped up in toilet paper and after handing it to him told Wolfe to unwrap it himself because he (the guard) didn't want to touch them.. as if they were contaminated by a convict. And then held up his middle finger and asked Wolfe how many fingers. and walked away as everyone (including Wolfe because he had to) laughed. 

So.. I'm glad he got his glasses. One war won.. .

sons of bitches.   Here's a copy of my new Federal Prison Consultant in response to advice on a few things..

Sorry to hear about Luke's problem but Seminole Cty Jail as you know is a county facility not Federal. I just had a client transferred to a camp after several months and he had a broken foot at Seminole.  He left with a  broken foot. Both myself and his attorney attempted to resolve issues including dealing with supervisors.  Always told it would be taken care of but.....The best suggestion I can give you as a mother continue calling the institution  ask for a supervisor and also ask to speak to any U.S. Marshal if any are available.  But the County facilities and even the U.S. Bureau of Prisons work on an antiquated system.  I'm been involved with the courts, parole commission and BOP for 41 years and I always tell clients and their family it's not the Hilton. Service is non existent  or limited. I work on designations and transfers but as far as inmate issues or BOP  transportation my reputation ceases. They have the authority  to do nothing and they  know it. Once he gets to a federal facility things will improve. I saw your request for he wanting to be involved with music or art but not being cute, he's not going to Julliard but a prison facility.  My job is to try and get him into a camp and nothing  higher.  My BOP consultant has already started making  calls to the varuious regioanl areas  and we will follow up with correspondence ASAP.  Ray
