Prison Pulse Report

We’re on lockdown almost all the time because the SHU is full. I got here on Oct. 2, and I’ve been locked down every day but four! We get out of our cells for only one hour on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. When we go to the shower, we’re in handcuffs. And even when we aren’t locked down, our doors are closed at 5:45 p.m. We got the Pell grants back, but there are no programs here. They don’t even have a psychiatrist.

They say the caption wants to open up, but the other staff are bucking on him.
