My boyfriend left USP Canaan in December 2023. He was discharged to state probation, which he completed successfully. However, on his federal probation, a text relating to a weed purchase was found on his phone, and he was sent to USP McCreary for a year. The problem is that ge was gang-affiliated when he was in before, and a member of his gang tried to kill him by hitting him in the head with a lock 12 times. He required 10 staples in his head. To defend himself, he stabbed the individual. Since then, he has changed his life completely and wants nothing to do with gangs. But at McCreary, the individual he stabbed runs the yard for the gang. So, he had to check himself into protective custody.
He got there March 25. He has not received any of my letters, even though I write him every day. I have received only two letters. When he got there, they were on lockdown so he was not allowed to order commissary (stamps, envelopes or anything). He has been fed hardly anything, just a bologna sandwich for lunch and dinner and oatmeal and powdered milk for breakfast. He has no hot water and had not been let out of his cell once as of April 4. He finally became a man who was good and cared about others and I’m terrified this will take him to a place where he won’t come back from.
