We are on a lockdown right now. I am not sure why we are still unable to call out to families or leave our cells. The recent violent attacks on inmates have been covered up over and over and I am guessing they are gathering their thoughts on what to say to the eventual media. What needs to happen is the DOJ needs to be contacted and federal government needs to take over this prison to get it back on its feet.


I have been sleeping most of the time and watching the Olympics. It makes me so proud to be part of the United States when I watch them. But I get so disheartened when I think of our broken justice and incarceration system. We are such a great country and this needs to be remedied.


I have been taking Aspirin when I feel chest pain. The medical staff is completely inconsistent on what they say. I just need to hang on a little longer. Prayers!!!
