Reprinted from a recently received letter: “What a %#@ Unit this is. We only get 2 toilet paper rolls per week….what happened to that robust supply that the DOC promised us? They only comply when the ACLU and media make them give us toilet paper.”
“Here’s what they spend their time on. Yesterday, 12 suits (CO IVs, Deputies, ADWs, et al) descended on wing 4, A yard to do 704s?? (704 is code for room inspection). They wouldn’t answer any inmate questions like, why aren’t we getting Covid vaccinations.”
“The suits spent your tax dollars taking cardboard out of the windows, so the residents couldn’t have shade from the sun. WTF? Is this what we pay them to do? Shouldn’t their time be better spent on addressing our suicide rate? Our lack of programs? The dismal crumbling infrastructure? Nope. They just add to the despair.”
Perryville never does anything that is good for the inmates. They don’t even follow their directives. Programs are almost non existent, so how can rehabilitation occur? The guards do nothing that they are required to do- they make the inmates do it.The place is a nightmare- especially with COVID-19.
I’m reading all these stories and I cant even imagine the horrors these women face on the daily. Yes, people will say they are prisoners fuck them they deserve to live like low life’s..
In the end these women are humans they deserve to have privacy, heat , cool temps in the summer. women’s toiletries and a safe running shower and prison structure.
the jail makes billions off the inmates wtf! where is all the money going to?
medical is important for mentally ill inmates. to treat the ill worse than a caged animal is inhumane.
HOW CAN WE HELP?
