Stephanie Moyer reads her daughter's diary in Lebanon, Pa., Friday, July 8, 2016. Moyer's daughter Victoria "Tori" Herr died Easter Sunday 2015 following heroin withdrawal days into her first jail stint. Matt Rourke AP Photo LEBANON, Pa. In the days following her 18-year-old daughter's first arrest on heroin charges, Stephanie Moyer took solace in thinking she would be safe in jail until she got into a treatment program. However, Victoria "Tori" Herr sounded disoriented on a call home three days later. She feared she was dying and begged for something to drink, her mother said. Herr, who had a 10-bag-a-day habit, collapsed following days of severe vomiting and diarrhea at the Lebanon County Correctional Facility. She spent five days in the hospital, then died on Easter Sunday 2015. Her case is one of at least a half-dozen deaths nationwide during the last two years involving jail heroin withdrawal, and advocates fear the number will grow given the nation's heroin crisis. Advocates find the deaths particularly troubling because opioid withdrawal, while miserable, is rarely life-threatening if medication, monitoring and intravenous fluids are available. "This is a woman who died because she was detoxing," said Moyer's lawyer, Jonathan Feinberg, who filed a federal civil rights lawsuit Monday. "Had Tori Herr's withdrawal been treated ... she almost certainly would be alive today." Warden Robert Karnes told Moyer that his staff followed "all operational protocols," the lawsuit says. Jail and county officials didn't return calls Monday seeking comment. "This is an emerging, growing problem, and it's hitting communities all over the country. That's exponentially so in jails," said Emma Freudenberger, a co-counsel on the lawsuit. Other withdrawal deaths have been reported at jails around the country: — In Oregon, a 26-year-old woman wrote increasingly dire notes to jail staff begging for help before she died after six days behind bars in 2014, The Oregonian reported. — Near Detroit, a 32-year-old man lost 50 pounds during a monthlong stay in 2014 as he struggled to withdraw from methadone, opioids and the anti-anxiety drug benzodiazepine. A jail video shows him lying naked on a stone floor during what his family's lawsuit called his slow, painful death. — In Colorado, a 25-year-old man died last year after he was prescribed a mixture of drugs to treat his withdrawal symptoms but never received them, according to his family's lawsuit. Dr. Eke Kalu, the general medical director of the Philadelphia prison system, said quitting heroin is one of the "safer withdrawals" compared with alcohol and some other drugs. The city screens inmates to assess their need for medication or IV fluids. Officials couldn't remember an opiate withdrawal death in the past decade. Officials at Rikers Island, in New York, have long run a methadone maintenance program, which experts believe can help detainees kick their habit and lower the risk of relapse. But smaller jails may lack in-house medical units or sufficient monitoring. Advocates say that can amount to cruel and unusual punishment. Freudenberger believes jail officials in Lebanon should have sent Herr to a hospital earlier. Herr was staggering by the time she was taken to the medical unit the last night there, according to Moyer's lawsuit. She was given water and Ensure, but resumed vomiting when she returned to her cell, the lawsuit said. Dehydration brought on by constant vomiting and diarrhea can lead to delirium, an electrolyte imbalance and cardiac damage. Herr also went without oxygen after she collapsed, the suit said. "I'm not a professional, but, as a mother — Day 1 — I would have taken her to the hospital if I would have seen her vomiting or not keeping things down," Moyer said. Herr graduated from high school in 2014 despite using heroin in the final months, something her mother attributes to her long struggle with anxiety. Moyer last saw her two days before her arrest, when they talked about an inpatient treatment program. "I told her that her name was Victoria and that's close to 'victorious,' and I promised her she would be victorious in getting through it," Moyer said.

[Florida] Jail hopes program helps heroin-addicted inmates get clean Orlando Sentinel 2 The first time Jeremy Pries overdosed on heroin, his brother broke a bathroom door off its hinges to rescue him. "I was like, 'I'm done. No more,'" he said, recalling his vow to stop using the street drug after the near-fatal episode in 2014. But he wasn't done with heroin. Pries, 25, said he started using again a few weeks after he was released from the hospital. And in 2015, he OD'd a second time. He passed out in a parking lot on International Drive, foaming from the mouth after shooting up in a tattoo shop toilet. He vowed to stop again but failed again. "This'll be my best shot," Pries said last week in an interview at the Orange County Jail, where he is among 144 inmates who volunteered to enroll in a pilot project for incarcerated heroin users. "Every time I've been locked up, it's been because of drug use.

The IJIS Institute developed and recently implemented this standard in state correctional facilities in Iowa, Arkansas and New Mexico. You will hear the agency leaders from these three states discuss the value their agencies are receiving from the recent implementation of the PREA Data Standard.

[Tennessee] Hamilton County Sheriff lowers minimum age to become jail correctional officer Times Free Press People as young as 18 can now apply to become correctional officers at the Hamilton County Jail, Sheriff Jim Hammond said today. The minimum age requirement was previously 21, Hammond said, because state law sets that age as the minimum to carry a gun. 3 "It's a simple argument," he said. "We will take a young man who is 18 and give him a military uniform and a rifle and put him in a overseas to protect this nation and lives of people all over the world but we don't allow them to work as a correctional officer here because they'r enot allowed to carry a weapon until they're 21. You don't need a weapon to work at the jail." The jail is chronically understaffed and overcrowded, and Hammond hopes the move will alleviate some of the problem, which lowers quality of life for both correctional officers and inmates. ...read on How invested are you in your agency staff?

IndyStar Two years ago, Ashley Sorrel wore a hospital gown inside the Marion County Jail, with twigs and dirt snarled in her hair and 92 stitches stretched across her body. Hours before, Sorrel, now 29, led Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers on a high-speed chase after she was caught stealing FedEx packages from residential porches to pay for her drug habit. Sorrel crashed, and her car caught fire. She tried to run, but police canines chased her down, and an officer deployed his Taser. This was close to rock bottom. But it wasn't her final criminal charge. Sorrel quickly racked up another theft charge after she was released from jail, again to pay for drugs. A judge sentenced her to a year of home detention. Knowing she couldn't stay clean during the sentence, Sorrel applied for a recovery program. She said the last time she got high was July 2014. ...read on 4 2016 Webinar Series "Fit for Duty"--Tips for Starting a Wellness Program August 11, 2016 2 p.m.-3:30 p.m. PM EDT Click here to register or for more information.

[Missouri] Respect is operative word for female correctional officer Lee's Summit Journal Nilda Serrano is on a side of history that's makes her smile, a gesture that contrasts the daily grind of her profession. An employee of the Jackson County Corrections Department for 24 years, Serrano was promoted to captain in June. After eight years as a sergeant and a year-and-a-half as a lieutenant, she became the first female and the first Hispanic to reach that rank. Jackson County Executive Frank White, Jr., was among the first to shake Serrano's hand during a brief ceremony at the Jackson County Detention Center to announce the promotion. The history behind the move was not lost on Serrano. "I've always wanted to be at this level because no female has ever made it this far," she said. "And neither has a Hispanic." The corrections department operates both the Jackson County Detention Center and Regional Correctional Center, adjoining facilities located just a block from the Jackson County Courthouse in downtown Kansas City. ...read on [Arkansas] Inmates released due to jail overcrowding NWA Repeat non-violent offenders and parolee's not being held in jail.

The Minnesota Department of Corrections has downgraded the jail from a Class III facility to a Class II facility. That change, said Capt. Steven Buswell, jail administrator for the WCDC, will result in a lot of inmates moving out of the jail and heading to neighboring counties. Starting Sept. 1, the jail will no longer house female prisoners. Also, the maximum stay for prisoners will be reduced from one year to 90 days. The jail, built in 1978, has been facing classification change for years, practically since it opened, Buswell said. "When this building was built in May of 1978, it was built under what were called the 1910 rules," he said. Not long thereafter, the state legislature and DOC changed the rules by how jails should be built and operated to the current 2911 rules. "The building was made to be in compliance in 1978." ...read on 6 Apply to NJLCA Today! We are now accepting applications for NJLCA Class 24, February 5-10, 2017!

[Ohio] New program readies inmates for leaving jail Toledo Blade Two dozen Lucas County jail inmates sat in a semicircle and considered a question regarding the rest of their lives: What do you want your "dash" to be? Jacob Spellis drew a tombstone on the whiteboard and looked toward the crowd. He wrote in his year of birth, 1992, and a hyphen for the undetermined future. "You want to be known as the biggest weed dealer in Toledo? The biggest heroin shooter?" he asked. One inmate, Eric Furll, replied, "I want mine to be that after 20 years in prison, I made something of myself." Spellis, a group facilitator at New Concepts, led a substance abuse session as part of a new jail program.

Russell Maroon Shoatz, 72, of Philadelphia, will use his portion of the money to start a foundation to help prisoners to re-enter society, according to his son, Russell Shoatz III. The state has also pledged to stop punishing Shoatz with isolation for his past acts and to give him a one-man cell for the rest of his life. The Abolitionist Law Center, which represented Shoatz, wrote in its press release that it’s important that he have his own cell so that “he will not have to experience the extreme hardship of being forced to share a cell following decades of enforced isolation.” Shoatz sued the state in 2013 and was removed from restricted housing — which involves 23 hours a day alone in a cell — in February 2014. One big change was being allowed to touch visitors. “He was unable to do physical contact with people” at first, said Mr. Shoatz, the son. “Now he hugs people, and it’s a lot easier.” Shoatz is serving a life sentence for the 1970 slaying in Philadelphia of Fairmount Park police Sgt. Frank Von Colln. He escaped twice from prison, in 1977 and 1980, and in 1983 became interim president of the inmate organization Pennsylvania Association of Lifers. He was in solitary confinement from 1992 to 2014, constituting cruel and unusual punishment, his attorneys have alleged. A department spokeswoman wrote that the state is “happy with the terms of the agreement and will continue to abide by them for the duration of Mr. Shoatz’s sentence.” The department has stopped using standard solitary confinement to punish seriously mentally ill inmates but continues to use that form of discipline for other inmates, sometimes for long periods. --------------------------------------------------- County CentreDaily Times/Associated Press (07/10/2016) http://www.centredaily.com/news/business/health-care/article88843727.html Advocates fear more heroin withdrawal deaths in jails BY Maryclaire Dale LEBANON -In the days following her 18-year-old daughter's first arrest on heroin charges, Stephanie Moyer took solace in thinking she would be safe in jail until she got into a treatment program. However, Victoria "Tori" Herr sounded disoriented on a call home three days later. She feared she was dying and complained of being thirsty, her mother said. Herr, who had a 10-bag-a-day habit, collapsed following days of severe vomiting and diarrhea at the Lebanon County Correctional Facility. She spent five days in the hospital, then died on Easter Sunday 2015. Her case is one of at least a half-dozen deaths nationwide during the last two years involving jail heroin withdrawal, and advocates fear the number will grow given the nation's heroin crisis. Advocates find the deaths particularly troubling because opioid withdrawal, while miserable, is rarely life-threatening if medication, monitoring and intravenous fluids are available. “This is a woman who died because she was detoxing," said Moyer's lawyer, Jonathan Feinberg, who filed a federal civil rights lawsuit Monday. "Had Tori Herr's withdrawal been treated ... she almost certainly would be alive today." Warden Robert Karnes told Moyer that his staff followed "all operational protocols," the lawsuit says. Jail and county officials didn't return calls Monday seeking comment. "This is an emerging, growing problem, and it's hitting communities all over the country. That's exponentially so in jails," said Emma Freudenberger, a co-counsel on the lawsuit. Other withdrawal deaths have been reported at jails around the country: — In Oregon, a 26-year-old woman wrote increasingly dire notes to jail staff begging for help before she died after six days behind bars in 2014, The Oregonian reported. — Near Detroit, a 32-year-old man lost 50 pounds during a monthlong stay in 2014 as he struggled to withdraw from methadone, opioids and the anti-anxiety drug benzodiazepine. A jail video shows him lying naked on a stone floor during what his family's lawsuit called his slow, painful death. — In Colorado, a 25-year-old man died last year after he was prescribed a mixture of drugs to treat his withdrawal symptoms but never received them, according to his family's lawsuit. Dr. Eke Kalu, the general medical director of the Philadelphia prison system, said quitting heroin is one of the "safer withdrawals" compared with alcohol and some other drugs. The city screens inmates to assess their need for medication or IV fluids. Officials couldn't remember an opiate withdrawal death in the past decade. Officials at Rikers Island, in New York, have long run a methadone maintenance program, which experts believe can help detainees kick their habit and lower the risk of relapse. But smaller jails may lack in-house medical units or sufficient monitoring. Advocates say that can amount to cruel and unusual punishment. Freudenberger believes jail officials in Lebanon should have sent Herr to a hospital earlier. Herr was staggering by the time she was taken to the medical unit the last night there, according to Moyer's lawsuit. She was given water and Ensure, but resumed vomiting when she returned to her cell, the lawsuit said. Dehydration brought on by constant vomiting and diarrhea can lead to delirium, an electrolyte imbalance and cardiac damage. Herr also went without oxygen after she collapsed, the suit said. "I'm not a professional, but, as a mother — Day 1 — I would have taken her to the hospital if I would have seen her vomiting or not keeping things down," Moyer said. Herr graduated from high school in 2014 despite using heroin in the final months, something her mother attributes to her long struggle with anxiety. Moy er last saw her the day before her arrest, when they talked about an inpatient treatment program. "I told her that her name was Victoria and that's close to 'victorious,' and I promised her she would be victorious in getting through it," Moyer said. --------------------------------------------------- Sunbury Daily Item (07/11/2016) http://www.dailyitem.com/news/local_news/stress-on-job-drives-montour-warden-toretire/article_52274eb3-cdcd-5b20-8909-3e6e17db0cd2.html Stress on job drives Montour warden to retire By Karen Blackledge DANVILLE — Montour County Prison Warden Gerald "Jerry" Cutchall says stress on the job has driven him to retire as of July 29. Cutchall, 61, returned to work Monday from a Family Medical Leave Act absence begun May 18. He also has about 10 days left on a 30-day probationary period imposed in early May by the county prison board. Following an executive session Monday, the prison board accepted Cutchall's letter of resignation for medical reasons, Board Chairman and Commissioner Trevor Finn said. Finn said the letter was accepted unanimously. The only board member absent was President Thomas James Jr. who was unable to make the meeting due to court proceedings in Columbia County. The board also appointed Jim Hack, a deputy sheriff who has been serving as acting administrator of the prison, to assess the operational structure of prison management. Besides the warden, the jail administration includes Lt. Scott Davis. The board may look differently at the way the prison is administered or may keep it the same, Finn said. Hack will continue serving as acting administrator while Cutchall is at the prison. The board recognized the warden’s many years on the job and he was thanked for his service. We are hopeful that we could honor his legacy by effectuating a smooth transition. To that end, Jim Hack has agreed to work with the warden through his last day. We requested that the warden share as much of his knowledge as possible with Jim during that time so that the warden can tie up any loose ends and that nothing “falls through the cracks,” County District Attorney Angela Matti, a board member, said. Mattis made the comments to Cutchall on behalf of the board. Also making up the board are Commissioners Ken Holdren and Dan Hartman and Sheriff Ray Gerringer. Before the board went into a private executive session for personnel issues, Commissioners Chairman Holdren said Cutchall had about 10 days left on the probationary period. While board members would not say when the probation was imposed, a county official said the action related to the warden not following a court order when releasing a prisoner. The county commissioners are expected to accept his letter of retirement at their meeting today. By the time he retires, Cutchall said he will have almost 28 years of service to the county. He has served as warden for 13 years and before that was deputy warden. He said he was retiring due to "duress in the workplace." "When I was off for FMLA, my wife and I decided in 28 years I have seen and heard a lot. After discussions with my wife and family, (we have 12 grandkids), they definitely are a great part of my life and I want to enjoy the rest of my time on earth with them," he said. He thanked the people of the county for allowing him to serve them. "I take great pride in my work and my integrity. My only hope is whoever steps in my shoes does the same. I do care about the county and taxpayers and try to run the jail as efficiently as I can and keep within the budget," he said. "It's hard for me to go, but due to my health ... ," he said. He said he is in very good health and being off for medical leave "definitely helped me a lot." Cutchall said he kind of looks forward to retiring, saying the position of warden is "very, very stressful." "I always tried to do the best job I could and will continue to until I leave," he said. Having begun as a correctional officer, Cutchall was promoted to lieutenant, then to deputy warden and to warden in 2003. He said he does have a groundskeeping position lined up for after retirement. --------------------------------------------------- Tribune Democrat (07/12/2016) http://www.tribdem.com/news/inmate-to-face-charges-in-alleged-prison-escapeattempt/article_4a9bcdde-47d4-11e6-9904-0f50fa901eb4.html EBENSBURG – An inmate who tried to escape Cambria County Prison on July 1 faces multiple charges and will appear before a judge on Tuesday. Christopher Allen Sanner, 22, of Punxsutawney, has been charged with three felonies: criminal attempt escape, institutional vandalism and criminal mischief/damaging property. According to a criminal complaint, Sanner, a state parole violator housed at the prison, used his hands and feet to tear away at a wall located inside a bathroom in a minimal security housing unit. During his routine check of the housing area, a guard noticed a metal wall in one of the bathroom stalls had been pulled away, saw wood chippings and insulation surrounding the area and alerted supervisors. At first, no one took responsibility for the damage when Warden Christian Smith questioned the entire housing unit, the affidavit says. Eventually, Sanner admitted the act. Prison officials discovered that Sanner had fresh scratches on his neck, arms, hands, shoulders and back area “believed to have been sustained while he was attempting to get through the hole” he had created in the wall, the affidavit says. During an interview with a county detective, Sanner said he “had a bad phone call so he decided to try to get out.” According to the affidavit, all other inmates in the housing unit were examined for fresh scratches and it was determined that no other inmates were involved in the damage. Sanner was arraigned Thursday by District Judge Michael Zungali, who set bail at 10 percent of $200,000. Sanner remains in the Cambria County Prison after he was unable to post bail. He is scheduled for a preliminary hearing at 1 p.m. Tuesday in front of District Judge Frederick Creany. According to online court records, Sanner violated his parole from 2013 charges of simple assault, theft and false reports. He was resentenced in 2014 to additional probation and jail time. --------------------------------------------------- Times-Herald (07/10/2016) http://www.timesherald.com/general-news/20160710/mentally-ill-defendants-kept-inmontgomery-county-prison-no-rooms-available-at-hospital Mentally ill defendants kept in Montgomery County prison; no rooms available at hospital By Kaityn Foti In April 2015, Kymere Corbin’s parents put their son in a car to get him the help they knew he needed for his mental illness. More than a year later, Corbin has not received that treatment in a facility. A gunshot on the Schuylkill Expressway, an attempted murder charge and three competency evaluations later, Corbin remains on a waitlist for treatment at Norristown State Hospital. Corbin, from South Philadelphia, has been on the waitlist for about six months, since a Montgomery County judge decided in December that he was mentally incompetent to stand trial and ordered he be moved to the state hospital’s forensic unit. “To me, he’s clearly incompetent to proceed, and he needs to get treated so that he can be competent to proceed. Hopefully. And right now we’re not going forward to trial and he’s not getting any help so it’s frustrating,” said Benjamin Cooper, Corbin’s attorney from the Montgomery County Public Defender’s Office. Corbin, who spent his 23rd birthday in Montgomery County Correctional Facility, was arrested April 7, 2015, after allegedly shooting his father, who was behind the wheel driving westbound on I-76, near the Matsonford Road exit. At the time, his parents were taking him for drug and mental health rehabilitation at Malvern Institute. On Dec. 28, Montgomery County Judge Thomas P. Rogers ordered Corbin to undergo psychiatric treatment at Norristown State Hospital, declaring the defendant incompetent to stand trial. “The definition of competency is the ability to understand the nature of the charges and assist his attorney in the preparation of his defense,” Cooper said. There aren’t enough beds in the forensic wing of Norristown State Hospital to accommodate those in the criminal justice system who need treatment in a psychiatric facility, many say. In fact, even the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services has acknowledged this by settling a lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of those who have had delays being admitted to Norristown or Torrance state hospitals. “Both Plaintiffs and Defendants desire to reduce the delays in transferring incompetent patients to suitable treatment facilities, which both Plaintiffs and Defendants acknowledge is a problem that began years ago, has increased recently, and cannot be justified clinically or legally,” the settlement states. The settlement states that average wait times are “at least” 60 days for admission for both of the state hospitals. David P. Gersch, who served as co-counsel to the ACLU on the lawsuit, said the average wait time as of mid-June is 221 days, with Norristown State Hospital having a much longer wait than Torrance. “It’s illegal, for one thing. If you’re not competent to stand trial, they can’t just throw you in jail,” Gersch said. “They can treat you, they can drop the charges, they can restore competency. They’re not doing any of those things; they’re just throwing them in jail.” Dennis Marion, deputy secretary of the Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services, said the increase in wait times for Norristown is due to a change in the Philadelphia courts’ referral process. The court began referring individuals admitted to the psychiatric unit in the Philadelphia jail to Norristown State Hospital, which “raised the base number for the forensic waitlist.” Corbin has been waiting more than 190 days for his transfer to Norristown State Hospital. A Montgomery County spokeswoman said that it costs $49.87 per day to house someone in MCCF, meaning Corbin’s time in county jail since he was ordered into placement at the hospital has cost the county about $9,500. Cooper said a female client of his who was recently transferred to the hospital waited two years for placement. The ACLU lawsuit, which was filed in October of 2015, argued that a wait time of more than seven days violated the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, along with portions of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act. Wait times for that transfer would generally be considered as credit toward an eventual sentence, Cooper said. For example, if Corbin is convicted of the charges against him, which include attempted murder and aggravated assault, the time he is waiting for transfer would be taken off his prison sentence. If a defendant is not convicted, however, it is likely time lost. And for those charged with minor crimes like retail theft, they spend much more time in jail waiting for placement than they would with a standard sentence. For first time offenders, retail theft often carries no jail time at all. While the defendants wait in jail to be transferred for treatment, it is not clear if the delay is detrimental to their mental health. “That is actually a difficult question for me to answer. Advocates would say that it is,” said Dr. Dale Adair, chief medical officer at Norristown State Hospital. “It really depends on the individual and what treatments they are receiving. Because someone is in jail does not mean he cannot receive treatment.” Alyssa Shatz, vice president of advocacy for the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania, said it is about more than just the treatment. “The reason that spending time in jail for people with mental health conditions is detrimental to their health, is A) they are not getting the treatment they need, and B) people with mental illness are more likely to be abused, more likely to experience violence, more likely to be further traumatized,” she said. “With a long wait time for competency, people end up languishing in jail, which is not good for anyone.” Cooper said Corbin is being held in the medium-max security wing of Montgomery County Correction Facility. He is receiving medication, but does not have a treatment team like those that would work with him at Norristown State Hospital. A treatment team, Adair said, is composed of psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists, along with nurses and social workers. Primary care physicians would also be included if there were any physical health problems. That team is assigned to work with the defendant until they are legally competent to stand trial. “It’s hard to get to somebody being competent without providing treatment, so they go hand in hand,” Adair said. “The order may not always state the treatment part, what you’re hoping is that you are able to get them to a better place as far as their symptoms.” The long wait to get that treatment, however, is a subject of frustration for many involved in the case. “The client’s going to get worse and worse if he’s not treated, or could,” he said. “It’s against the public interest because it delays the outcome of the case for interested parties such as witnesses, victims, the public, police, the defendant, everybody. It takes up space in the prison for someone waiting to be transported, so it’s costing money, you know, there’s nothing good being done by that.” Meanwhile, Corbin waits in Montgomery County jail, not for trial, but for treatment. “He’s in need of treatment and he’s entitled to it,” Cooper said. “We just have to get it done.” As for Corbin’s family, they are waiting to learn the fate of their son. The father is still recovering from the gunshot wound suffered at the hands of his son. The mother, whom Cooper has been in contact with throughout the process, is hoping for the best. “They’ve been very nice, very patient,” Cooper said. “They’re frustrated. They know I’m trying, and they’re just hoping that it can get done, so their kid can get help.” Note: This is part one of a two-part report at defendants waiting to get a bed in Norristown State Hospital. Part two will look at what is being done to lessen that wait. --------------------------------------------------- Times herald (07/10/2016) http://www.thereporteronline.com/general-news/20160710/advocates-push-for-moreoptions-for-mentally-ill-defendants Advocates push for more options for mentally ill defendants By Kaitlyn Foti During the summer of 2014, a Montgomery County judge declared 23-year-old Jason James Payne incompetent to stand trial for allegedly attacking his mother, Pamela, with a foot-long butcher knife inside the East Third Street home they shared in Pottstown. Payne waited in jail for four months until there was room for him at Norristown State Hospital, where he is now being treated for mental illness. In 2015, the American Civil Liberties Union filed a class-action lawsuit against the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services, with a lead plaintiff listed only as J.H., declaring that any prison wait of more than seven days violated a defendant’s constitutional rights. Attorney David P. Gersch, who served as co-counsel to the ACLU on the lawsuit, said that J.H. spent more than a year on the waitlist after stealing $3 in peppermint patties. The lawsuit was settled Jan. 27 of this year, with stipulations that DHS, which funds Norristown and Torrance state hospitals, creates 60 new treatment placements for those declared incompetent. The state has created 49 new beds in residential treatment facilities, including Gaudenzia, New Vitae and Girard Recovery Center. There is also an action plan that includes 20 new extended treatment slots, 60 slots for continued care for those discharged from the hospital and 100 supported housing slots. The progress, still in its early stages, will take time to have an impact, Gersch said. “In a nut shell, the wait times still have not come down, and that can be because there are more people in the system, or because they haven’t gotten the DAs to sign off on moving people to places which the DA may not think is secure,” Gersch said. When asked about the current average wait times for the two state hospitals, Dennis Marion, Deputy Secretary of the Office of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services, referred to the lawsuit which stated that the average wait time was “at least 60 days.” “Wait times for NSH are significantly longer than for TSH. We have not calculated average wait times as we are bringing the new beds on line,” Marion said in an email, adding that the numbers are “coming down.” The ACLU continues to work with the state as they execute the plan laid out in the settlement agreement. Gersch said that there is still concern that the state is not making visible progress. “Since we have entered into our agreement with DHS, they have been making efforts to have more beds, and that’s very important,” he said. “We believe that can be a part or all of the solution, but as of this date, the wait list hasn’t come down yet.” Dr. Dale Adair, chief medical officer at Norristown State Hospital, said that there are steps that can be taken at the county level to reduce wait times. “Mental health courts are a good example of ways that prevent individuals with mental health concerns from going into the criminal justice system instead of treatment,” Adair said. “We also know that a significant number of individuals who are incarcerated may or may not have mental health as their primary issue.” Montgomery County does have a Behavioral Health Court, as well as a Drug Court. Both are specialized judicial programs to offer defendants treatment options opposed to harsh sentences for minor crimes. Adair said both help reduce waiting times for the hospital. “Substance use is a big component, so drug courts, those types of things, which are geared more towards getting individuals more into treatment rather than getting them incarcerated, they help,” Adair said. Montgomery County recently issued a request for proposals for vendors to supply more treatment options for mentally ill prisoners. In the paperwork for the request, the cost of those with serious mental illness was shown to be higher than those without. “In 2008, a sample of 38 inmates with (serious mental illness) housed at MCCF showed an Average Length of Stay (ALOS) of 230 days as compared to the general population ALOS of 72 days. Using the above ALOS for each population with the jail per diem of $47 per day, the cost for each person with SMI is $10,810 vs. $3,384 for the general population,” the document states. It goes on to say that the cost doesn’t even include the cost of psychotropic medication that 32 percent of inmates are taking. “It is estimated that reducing the length of stay for inmates with (serious mental illness) to that of that of the general population would save the county approximately $7,426 per inmate,” the research stated. The request also sought ways to keep those with mental illness who commit minor crimes out of jail in the first place. One proposal is to create support plans for those who are capable of showing up for court dates and other appointments on their own. Another is to help with access benefits, housing, transportation, treatment and support services and education or employment to reduce the risk of committing another crime. “I think that one part of the problem is that we need to get people into competency treatment more quickly, the other part of this is that we want to have anybody who can live in the community as quickly as possible, with appropriate supports,” said Alyssa Shatz, vice president of advocacy for the Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania. While community-based options would not change the path for someone like Payne, or other violent offenders, it would create more options for someone who stole $3 worth of candy, thereby freeing up a bed in a state hospital. “You have people who are not dangerous taking up a bed in what is the most secure facility you can have. The goal is to get people out of Norristown and into more suitable locations, and getting people into Norristown who really need it,” Gersch said. “J.H. was arrested for stealing $3 of peppermint patties, so he doesn’t need to be in a facility that secure. He was a citizen of Pennsylvania, and he was behind bars instead of getting treatment.” This is part two of a two-part report defendants waiting to get a bed in Norristown State Hospital. Part one looked at the wait and how it was detrimental to those with mental illness.   --------------------------------------------------- Times Tribune (07/09/2016) http://thetimes-tribune.com/news/judge-dismisses-retaliation-lawsuit-againstlackawanna-county-1.2065022 Judge dismisses retaliation lawsuit against Lackawanna County prison employee By Terrie Morgan-Besecker A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Lackawanna County prison employee who alleged she was retaliated against for picketing with striking county Youth and Family Services workers. U.S. District Judge Malachy Mannion said Michelle Barnard could not prevail in her case because the prison union’s contract forbids employees from engaging in “sympathy strikes” with other unions. Ms. Barnard, who was suspended for one day without pay, sued the county in November, alleging Human Services Director Brian Loughney violated her First Amendment right to free speech by retaliating against her for joining the workers on the picket line on May 14, 2015. In a motion to dismiss, county attorney Joseph Joyce said Ms. Barnard was suspended because she called off sick to attend the union rally, which is an abuse of sick leave. Mr. Joyce also argued Ms. Barnard waived her First Amendment rights because the prison union contract forbids employees from picketing with other unions. Judge Mannion agreed. In his ruling Friday, the judge noted Ms. Barnard acknowledged she joined the striking workers. The union contract clearly states employees cannot engage in sympathy strikes, so she cannot state a First Amendment retaliation claim. Ms. Barnard’s attorney, Cynthia Pollick of Pittston, said she will appeal. --------------------------------------------------National Corrections Des Moines Register (07/08/2016) http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/crime-and-courts/2016/07/08/convictedteen-iowa-killer-leaving-prison-work-release/86862312/ Convicted teen Iowa killer leaving prison on work release By Grant Rodgers For the first time in almost 28 years, convicted murderer Yvette Louisell soon will live outside the walls of prison. The Iowa Board of Parole voted Friday to move her to an Ames work-release program, ending years of legal wrangling that overturned an earlier sentence of life without parole. Louisell was convicted of first-degree murder in 1987 for the killing of Keith Stilwell inside his Ames home. She was a 17-year-old college student at the time of the murder. She is one the first Iowa inmates convicted of first-degree murder as a teenager to be granted conditional parole after a 2012 Supreme Court ruling declared that mandatory life-without-parole sentences are an unconstitutional form of cruel and unusual punishment for those who committed their crimes before turning 18. There are more than 30 Iowa inmates who fall into this category. “Not everybody believes that people in my category should be given a second chance. And really, I'm prepared for people to express negative opinions. ... I just need to be, in those moments, polite, respectful and, if possible, remove myself from the situation.” She has received support from church members, sentencing reform advocates and even the prosecutor who convicted her of murder. They've all argued that Louisell has matured during her decades as an inmate and is ready to be released. Louisell detailed the accomplishments she has made in the 10 months since her last parole hearing on Friday via a video feed from the Iowa Correctional Facility for Women in Mitchellville. She has a leadership role with a group that prepares inmates for release, and she has taken an increasing number of supervised trips outside the prison. On Thursday, she rode on a DART bus to the downtown Des Moines headquarters and learned how to read bus schedules and download the transit authority's smartphone app, she said. She earned an instructional driver's permit during a trip to an Iowa Department of Transportation licensing center. "Ms. Louisell has done above and beyond all that has been requested of her in the last few years, and certainly the years before that," her attorney, Gordon Allen, told the parole board. "She's ready to move on." Louisell and Allen spent three years in litigation, which ultimately led a district court judge to set aside her original life-without-parole sentence and open the door for her to one day leave prison. Her bid for a new sentence went before the Iowa Supreme Court, and the ruling set significant precedent for how Iowa judges can sentence young people convicted of firstdegree murder. Louisell's transition to a work-release facility will not be immediate. There is a waiting list at the Ames facility, parole board chairman John Hodges said. Louisell had a promising future when she graduated from high school in Michigan at age 16 and accepted a full scholarship to Iowa State University, where she planned to study politics. But she drank heavily and began suffering academically. On Dec. 6, 1987, she stabbed and killed Stilwell, 40, in his Ames home. Louisell met the older man after taking a job modeling at a local art institute where Stilwell took classes. Stilwell, who was handicapped and needed canes to walk, offered to pay the struggling college student for private modeling sessions at his home. At her trial, Louisell testified that he cornered her with a knife and threatened to rape her one night after she decided to quit posing privately for him. Louisell claimed that she stabbed Stilwell in self-defense after struggling for control of a knife, but she also took his wallet and tried to use his credit card at a mall before her arrest. In a 1996 interview, Louisell said that abuse she suffered as a young child played a role in her crime. She also hedged her past claim that Stilwell tried to rape her. "It had a lot more to do with my mental state than it had to do with his actions," Louisell told Des Moines Register reporter Thomas O'Donnell in the interview from prison. "Because of what I came out of I took him to be threatening, you know, to be almost trapping me in a way that was very familiar to me. I didn't have the sense to realize I could just get up and walk out of this situation." None of Stilwell's family members was at Friday's parole board hearing. U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan wrote the majority opinion in the 2012 ruling that deemed mandatory life-without-parole sentences unconstitutional for minors. She wrote that life sentences should only be used for the "rare juvenile whose crime reflects irreparable corruption." In late January 2014, Story County District Court Judge James Ellefson sentenced Louisell to 25 years in prison — a move that would have allowed her to be free within days. But the ruling was put on hold while the Iowa Supreme Court considered whether Ellefson had the authority to fashion a sentence that would release Louisell while bypassing the parole board. The seven justices unanimously overturned the lower judge's sentence last year, ruling that decisions about the release for most young killers should be left to the parole board. Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruling, at least two other Iowa inmates sentenced as teens to life without parole have been released. Kristina Fetters, who was imprisoned for killing her great-aunt, was released to a Des Moines hospice facility in 2013 after she was diagnosed with inoperable breast cancer. On May 12, the parole board granted work release to Mitchell Ronek, who was convicted of killing a man at a hotel in Maquoketa in 1984. Louisell had a turbulent childhood growing up in a family scarred by divorce and her mother's mental illness, according to a history of her case written in the 2015 Iowa Supreme Court ruling. Louisell accidentally took LSD and experienced hallucinations when she was only 3 years old after finding the drug in her home. In Friday's interview with the board, Louisell said a major factor in her crime was letting her life spiral out of control without asking for help. Prison psychologists and others helping her prepare to leave prison have taught her to set aside her own independence, she said. "I’m a very independent person, but I know that not asking for help is a huge part of what led me down the path to committing my crime,” she said. “If I have any problems, they get dealt with at the first opportunity.” Louisell is active in Women at the Well, a prison ministry at Mitchellville coordinated through the United Methodist Church. Finding and becoming active in a church would be one of her first priorities upon leaving prison, she said. Louisell and Allen asked the parole board to consider granting a full parole Friday, under the condition that she move into the Butterfly Freedom House, a faith-based transitional home in Ames. But, Hodges and other board members each said they preferred a more gradual release. Louisell will be eligible for full parole at the recommendation of her parole supervisor. --------------------------------------------------- News and Observer (Raleigh, NC) (7/08/2016) http://www.newsobserver.com/opinion/op-ed/article88485822.html NC prison system to focus on getting inmates ready for re-entry By David Guice (Opinion) North Carolina’s prison and juvenile justice system has had many recent notable accomplishments. Our juvenile crime rate has decreased for six consecutive years while the number of juveniles housed in youth development and juvenile detention centers also decreased significantly. Offenders under the age of 18 who were adjudicated and sentenced to prison as adults are no longer placed in solitary confinement. Instead, we have implemented a program that takes into account the developmental needs of this particular age group. Within the state prison system, the number of offenders in solitary confinement has been reduced from more than 5,300 to about 2,500. We’ve developed an incentivebased system aimed at changing offenders’ behaviors, developing their skills and education, and ultimately increasing the likelihood of successful re-entry into our communities. We are in the process of implementing that system at a number of prisons, with longer-term plans to apply these interventions across the entire system. As prisons have become de facto mental health hospitals, the need for better management and treatment of offenders with mental illness necessarily has gained strong focus. The department has trained approximately 4,510 staff members within adult corrections and most direct-care juvenile justice employees in crisis intervention methods. Additionally, an eight-hour mental health awareness training program has been developed and will be provided to all prisons employees. Therapeutic Diversion Units for offenders with mental illness have been developed. These units, which will decrease the need for placement in secure housing, will use individually tailored treatment plans to assist offenders with coping and social skills development, emotional regulation and medication management. Training of all adult community corrections and juvenile court counseling staff in Mental Health First Aid and placement of probation officers at Confinement in Response to Violation sites, as well as at selected prisons, also serve the offender and the community upon the offender’s re-entry into the community. To enable our criminal justice system to provide the most age-appropriate services to our youthful offenders, North Carolina needs to raise the juvenile age to 18. I have taken all administrative steps available to me to establish age-appropriate programming for our juveniles in the prison system, but, to complete this work, the General Assembly must act to remove juveniles from our jails and prisons. I believe that North Carolina’s prisons must transform from institutions built just for housing inmates to facilities that better address those factors that drive an individual to commit crimes. Our prison system is currently undertaking this comprehensive remissioning initiative, aimed primarily at helping offenders make the changes necessary to become law-abiding, contributing members of the community. This process will include identifying the most appropriate mission for each of the state’s 56 prisons. Each prison’s mission will be based on the distribution of needs across the population of approximately 37,000 inmates, the location and capacity of each facility, staffing and the most effective use of resources. A key component in this remissioning effort will be establishing re-entry facilities, the portal through which incarcerated individuals will pass to prepare for transition back into society. Simply put, without appropriate attention to and resources wisely invested in our facilities and in our communities for offender re-entry, our best efforts toward North Carolina’s nationally recognized criminal justice reform, whether that be through the Justice Reinvestment Act in Adult Corrections or Juvenile Justice’s progressive strategic plan, will be for naught. The vast majority of offenders in our prisons will be returning to our communities. That fact alone makes it incumbent upon those who work within the state’s criminal justice system to encourage each individual for whom we have care and custody to engage in a process of personal growth and self-improvement, and to support the individual’s efforts to leave prison a changed person with hope for a better, more pro-social future. Numerous additional efforts supporting the longer-term goals of the remissioning initiative are underway. We are proud of our progress and remain dedicated to full implementation of the larger remissioning agenda. These gains could not have been made without significant effort, redirection of resources and our administration’s vision regarding a new approach to offender management. With ongoing support, to include increased funding and staffing, continued beneficial results can be expected for the people of North Carolina. --------------------------------------------------- News Times/Associated Press (07/09/2016) http://www.newstimes.com/news/crime/article/Georgia-set-to-execute-sixth-inmate-thisyear-8349547.php Georgia set to execute sixth inmate this year By Kate Brumback ATLANTA (AP) — An execution scheduled for Thursday would be the sixth in Georgia this year — the most executions carried out by the state in a calendar year since the death penalty was reinstated four decades ago. John Wayne Conner, 60, is scheduled to die by injection of pentobarbital at the state prison in Jackson. He was convicted of beating friend to death 34 years ago during an argument after a night of drinking and marijuana use. Georgia has executed five people in a calendar year twice — last year and in 1987 — since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. Conner would be the sixth in Georgia this year and would also be the ninth inmate put to death by the state since Sept. 30, the most in a 12-month period since the death penalty was reinstated. The state's previous record for a 12-month period was set when seven inmates were put to death between October 2001 and August 2002. Only five states have carried out death sentences this year for a total of 14. Aside from the five already put to death in Georgia, six inmates have been executed in Texas and one each in Alabama, Florida and Missouri. Conner spent the evening of January 9, 1982, drinking and smoking at a party with his girlfriend and other friends, including J.T. White. They then returned to the home Conner shared with his girlfriend in Milan, about 150 miles southeast of Atlanta. Conner's girlfriend went to bed, and he and White left the house on foot with a nearly empty bottle of bourbon and went in search of more alcohol. They awakened another friend around 1:30 a.m. to ask for a ride into town to get more whiskey. The friend could tell they'd been drinking and refused, according to court documents. Conner told police he and White were walking down the road when White told Conner he wanted to sleep with his girlfriend. That led to a fight, during which Conner told police he hit White with the bottle and beat him with a stick, the documents say. Conner then returned home, woke his girlfriend and said he'd had a fight with White and thought he was dead, court documents say. Conner left a note for his mother saying they had to leave because "something happened to me." The couple was later found hiding in a hay barn. White's body, with a badly beaten face, was found in a drainage ditch. Conner's lawyers asked a court to halt his execution and to allow a jury to determine whether he is intellectually disabled, and thus ineligible for execution. They contended that his trial lawyer did little investigation into his background or mental health history and presented no such evidence at trial or sentencing. His lawyers also said they presented evidence in federal court proves Conner is intellectually disabled. State lawyers contended that a federal judge has already found that Conner was not intellectually disabled and that the issues now being raised have already been addressed or could have been presented previously. Butts County Superior Court Judge William Fears rejected the requests from Conner's attorneys and declined to stop the execution. --------------------------------------------------- Clarion Ledger (Jackson, MS) (07/09/2016) http://www.clarionledger.com/story/news/2016/07/09/walnut-grove-prison-lossdevastating/86428610/ Walnut Grove prison loss ‘devastating’ Uncertainty hangs in the air of Walnut Grove, a community bracing itself for the loss of its largest employer this fall. The state’s decision to close the privately run Walnut Grove prison, which under federal oversight since 2012 for its conditions, will leave the tiny town facing a precipitous drop in revenue as many residents look for work. “We were getting our good reputation back, and this has just been devastating,” Mayor Brian Gomillion said. Citing budget cuts and a declining number of inmates, the Mississippi Department of Corrections announced it would close the Walnut Grove Correctional Facility in September and transfer its 900 inmates to state-run prisons. The closure will mean about 200 fewer jobs in a town with a population that hovers around 500, and loss of revenue that will lead to furloughs and pay cuts for city employees. “There are so many people that drive in from surrounding counties, and these people have rented houses or bought houses in Walnut Grove,” Gomillion said. “People have worked over there since it opened (in 2001) and since it’s gone through these management changes. If all they’ve been is in the correction business and the nearest prison is an hour or even two hours away, that’s not practical at the salaries they make, and they have to move their families.” Not every prison employee lives in Walnut Grove, but they have an impact on local businesses during their commutes in and out of town. “If you don’t have people in town, you’re not going to sell them something to eat at lunch,” Bank of Walnut Grove President Ray Britt said. “You’re not going to sell them gasoline when they’re on their way home or you’re not going to have people come to the door.” The revenue loss will force the town’s 12 employees to begin a furlough once a week and police to take a $2-per-hour pay cut. Kashia Zollicoffer, owner of Urban Country Kitchen, expects the biggest impact to her business to be during furlough days, when city employees off work won’t come in for lunch. But her main concern is the impact to the town as a whole and the families who will be affected. “There will be a change,” Zollicoffer said. “A lot of people hear ‘Walnut Grove’ and think of the prison.” At Walnut Grove Medical Clinic, Dr. James Lock’s patients who work at the prison will lose their health insurance unless they can purchase it independently or find other work. “I’ve seen them a number of years, and they are surely concerned,” he said. “I think some of them may be in denial. They think it’s not going to leave. I’m not a government official, but I think maybe Mississippi people should support them from the state level.” The state pays Management and Training Corp. $14.6 million per year to operate the prison, which is one of four facilities the company runs in Mississippi. While building the private prisons, the state racked up $195 million in debt. The Walnut Grove prison was presented to the community as an opportunity for jobs after the departure of several manufacturing plants. A shirt manufacturing and a glove maker closed several years ago and moved their operations overseas. It was touted as "recession proof." The city annexed the land where the prison was built in 1999 and later expanded. But the prison’s dismal conditions, with rampant violence, drug smuggling, inmate abuse and denial of basic services, led to a lawsuit that eventually placed the facility under federal oversight. Although MDOC argued last year in court that the prison had made significant progress and it no longer needed oversight, a federal judge disagreed, and the consent decree remained in place. About a year and a half ago, MDOC reduced Walnut Grove’s inmate population, and about 100 prison employees were laid off, Gomillion said. “We had already been impacted by MDOC cuts,” he said. The prison is the backbone of the town’s budget, which will lose $180,000 per year that it received from MTC in lieu of ad valorem taxes, as well as utility payments. “We had a new well drilled exclusively for the prison, a water tank built for the prison, gas infrastructure built to the facility that the town doesn’t need otherwise, sewer projects built for the facility,” Gomillion said. “These are all things we’ve got to maintain despite there being no revenue from this facility.” Much of the funds the town received from the prison went toward Walnut Grove’s police force, which responds to issues at the prison. “Until this company came in and got things settled down, police officers had to spend a lot of time at the facility,” Gomillion said. “It wasn’t like we were just given that money. We were earning it.” Walnut Grove’s situation is not unique, as states’ budgetary limitations and fewer incarcerations have forced prison closures across the country. Six states shut down or considered closing 20 prisons in 2013, according to The Sentencing Project’s most recent study on the topic. “Our hope is that there will be some way, shape, form or fashion that that facility will be used for something that will create some jobs,” Britt said. “What that’s going to be, I don’t think anyone has any idea … but it would be awfully difficult to see a facility that is that nice just sit there and … rust down.” --------------------------------------------------- Sun-Herald (07/09/2016) http://www.sunherald.com/news/local/article88691072.html Inmates take lethal injection drug challenge to Mississippi Supreme Court By Jeff Amy JACKSON- Two Mississippi death row inmates have filed fresh challenges to the state’s lethal injection procedures with the Mississippi Supreme Court. The move came after the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals told them a state court should determine whether Mississippi was breaking state law by using a new drug. Richard Jordan and Gerald Loden filed their appeals Wednesday, saying the court should rule illegal Mississippi’s plan to use midazolam as a sedative because it’s not the kind of drug called for by state law. Jordan, now 70, was convicted of kidnapping and killing Edwina Marta in Harrison County on Jan. 13, 1976. Rachael Ring, a spokeswoman for Attorney General Jim Hood, said his office is reviewing the appeals. The court actions are part of a series of continuing legal skirmishes nationwide over lethal injection drugs. In August, U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate had issued a preliminary injunction blocking Mississippi from putting anyone to death. The appeals court overruled Wingate in February, but Wingate’s injunction remained in place until Tuesday, when the appeals court published its ruling. Since then, Hood’s office has been free to ask the state Supreme Court to set execution dates for inmates who have exhausted their other appeals. Hood hasn’t yet done so. Jordan’s attorney, Jim Craig, predicted state Supreme Court justices wouldn’t approve execution dates while challenges to midazolam were pending. He said Hood has been ducking the issue since 2014. “All AG Hood has done is file motions and briefs to evade a court hearing where we can prove that the Mississippi Department of Corrections’ procedure will torture prisoners in the death chamber,” Craig said. “If he really thinks we can’t prove our case, General Hood needs to come out from his hiding place and meet us in court.” Mississippi law requires a three-drug process, specifying an “ultra-short-acting barbiturate” followed by a paralyzing agent and a drug that stops an inmate’s heart. But Mississippi and other states have increasingly struggled to obtain such drugs since 2010, as manufacturers refuse to sell them for executions. “Not only is midazolam not an ultra short-acting barbiturate, it is not a barbiturate at all,” say both appeals. Lawyers for both men argue that the Mississippi Department of Corrections can’t unilaterally change a punishment that the Legislature wrote into law without usurping lawmakers’ power. Midazolam doesn’t render someone unconscious as quickly as a barbiturate. Craig argues midazolam leaves an inmate at risk of severe pain during execution, violating the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution’s bar on cruel and unusual punishment. The U.S. Supreme Court in 2015 upheld as constitutional Oklahoma’s use of midazolam. Jordan’s appeal raises an additional argument, arguing that his 40-year-long wait between a death sentence and execution equals cruel and unusual punishment. Jordan had agreed to serve life without parole after successfully challenging his sentence three times, but got the state Supreme Court to rule that Jordan could have only been sentenced to death or life with possibility of parole. A prosecutor then won a death penalty for the fourth time in a 1998 sentencing trial. “These extraordinary circumstances make his execution excessive and disproportionate to the crime and thus in violation of both the federal and state constitutions,” the appeal states. Loden pleaded guilty in 2001 to kidnapping, raping and murdering Leesa Marie Gray in Itawamba County. --------------------------------------------------- New Orleans Times Picayune (07/10/2016) http://www.nola.com/opinions/index.ssf/2016/07/a_moment_of_crisis_opportunity.html A moment of crisis, opportunity for Louisiana’s criminal justice system By Robert Mann (Opinion) Would it be wise for Louisiana to stick a petty thief in prison for five years for swiping $31 of candy? Of course not. That would be counterproductive and a ridiculous waste of scarce state funds. Therefore, it may not surprise you that Orleans Parish District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro's office has proposed just such a sentence for a New Orleans candy bar bandit. As Cannizaro's questionable judgment suggests, Louisiana's criminal justice system is broken. More on the candy theft later, but it is heartening that cases like it have brought Republicans and Democrats in Louisiana's Legislature together on one issue, at least. Most agree that our criminal laws are an outdated mess and are responsible for Louisiana's shameful distinction as the state with the country's highest incarceration rate — 108 percent higher (in 2014) than the national average. Our prisons are overcrowded and understaffed. The number of state inmates ballooned by 35 percent over the past two decades. Far too many (more than half in 2014) sit in poorly staffed parish jails, many of them lacking services that might qualify as true "corrections." Years of budget cuts to the state's Department of Corrections have damaged an already threadbare institution, arguably one of the most important in state government. (Do we really want the people who guard violent offenders to make do with less?) The situation is worse in local prisons. The powerful Louisiana Sheriff's Association is addicted to the $24.39 a day its members receive for housing state inmates (that may drop by $2 after budget cuts imposed by lawmakers this summer). Those cheap rates mean that many state inmates in local jails receive nothing like the medical, psychological and rehabilitation services offered at the state prison at Angola or other state-run institutions. None of this makes us safer, by the way. Louisiana has the nation's third-highest overall crime rate and among the nation's highest violent crime rates. All signs point to a moment of crisis in corrections. Thankfully, it could also be a moment of opportunity. That's the approach that Gov. John Bel Edwards and lawmakers in both parties appear to be taking. In the recent regular legislative session, Edwards signed legislation to stop the state from sending 17-year-old offenders into adult prisons, diverting them, instead, to the juvenile justice system. And last year, lawmakers created the bipartisan Louisiana Justice Reinvestment Task Force, which will soon propose sentencing and corrections policy reforms for consideration during the 2017 legislative session. Those reforms ought to include making probation, not prison, the default sentence for more nonviolent offenses and reducing mandatory minimum sentences that leave judges with little or no discretion. "You will never convince me that the people of Louisiana are innately more sinister or criminal than elsewhere. So what are we doing?" Edwards told a recent meeting of the task force. "If we had the highest incarceration rates and the lowest crime rates and the lowest recidivism rates, we could probably argue that it was worthwhile. There is no argument to make for what we're doing in Louisiana today." Edwards is correct — and lawmakers and policymakers across the political spectrum know this. "One of the engines of this reform movement is the realization that traditional incarceration as a uniform policy has failed," scholar Jamison Beuerman wrote last month on the website of the conservative, New Orleans-based Pelican Institute. "This is in part because imprisonment is not the best avenue of dealing with every offender that enters the system." And that brings us back to $31 in candy. After 35-year-old Jacobia Grimes' conviction for attempting to steal the candy bars from a New Orleans Dollar General store, the state judge hearing his case gave him one year in prison. Cannizzaro's office, however, later invoked a habitual offender law that might require the judge to give Grimes at least 20 years to life. Criminal District Court Judge Franz Zibilich has said he believes such a sentence is excessive. Even Cannizzaro's office says it hopes Zibilich uses his discretion to order a five-year sentence for Grimes, who has been convicted eight times before, mostly for theft. Five years is too much for a picayune crime, repeat offender or not. Grimes, whose lawyers say has a drug addiction and suffers from kleptomania, seems exactly the person who should not be stuffed into a state prison along with violent offenders. At about $17,000 a year per inmate, it would cost Louisiana $85,000 over five years to imprison Grimes, which far exceeds the cost of the psychiatric help he appears to desperately need. Grimes' crime and Cannizzaro's response to it demonstrate why Edwards and legislators must set Louisiana on a different path. Put the violent criminals behind bars, for sure, but let's stop spending millions each year warehousing petty criminals and drug addicts who belong in treatment, not in prison. --------------------------------------------------- Hays Daily (KS) (07/11/2016) http://www.hdnews.net/news/local/department-of-corrections-website-uses-visual-dataon-incarceration/article_2a1192e5-2228-545b-912d-a12970e88492.htm Department of Corrections website uses visual data on incarceration By Katie Moore TOPEKA — Visual data provided to the public by the Kansas Department of Corrections is intended to increase transparency and shed light on incarceration trends across the state. In January, the agency launched iDashboard, which can be found at www.doc.ks.gov/dashboards/annual-report-dashboards. The special website features a dropdown menu of 18 categories including statistics on length of sentences, recidivism and facility capacities. Additionally, there are breakdowns by gender and race and information on juvenile incarceration. For instance, in 2006, the female inmate population was 651. The projected number for 2016 is 898 — an increase of 28 percent. For males in 2006, there were 8,301 inmates. In 2016, the projected number is 9,125 — an increase of 10 percent. The website also tracks data related to the Prison Rape Elimination Act. Substantiated staff-on-offender cases have decreased from 15 incidents in 2013 to three in 2015, while substantiated offender-on-offender cases have increased from 4 in 2013 to 25 in 2015. “KDOC plans to continue using the dashboard service as a method to report data, while looking at trends in our operations,” said communications director Adam Pfannenstiel. “The more we are able to analyze our data, the better we can serve crime victims and citizens of Kansas.” The majority of the information is collected from agency staff who maintain and report data on a regular basis. It then is compiled in an annual report. The report for 2015 was 59 pages. The visual charts and graphs make iDashboard a more user-friendly format, Pfannenstiel said. Many facilities haven’t begun using the website yet; however, the department is working to increase the reporting items. Once that happens, Pfannenstiel said he expects KDOC staff will use the site more. Through time, the department will be able to identify trends and areas of improvement, he said. --------------------------------------------------- Post and Courier (SC) (07/11/2016) http://www.postandcourier.com/20160711/160719973/south-carolina-inmates-toreceive-telehealth-care South Carolina inmates to receive telehealth care By Derrek Asberry The Medical University of South Carolina and the state Department of Corrections are teaming up to provide telehealth services to inmates in four South Carolina prisons. Using the service, a doctor in Charleston can consult with the care team at a prison any time of day via video conferencing equipment. Then, the doctor can remotely prescribe medications, treatments and procedures that prison officials can implement for the inmate. Bryan Stirling, director of the South Carolina Department of Corrections, said the partnership will enhance public safety by limiting offender transports. It also will save taxpayer money, he said in a press His agency oversees 20,620 offenders throughout the state with many facilities located in remote areas. The telehealth partnership with MUSC will initially include the following four prisons: Kirkland Reception and Evaluation in Columbia, Evans Correctional Institution in Bennettsville, Turbeville Correctional Institution in Turbeville, and Lee Correctional Institution in Bishopville. Other states, including Texas, Florida, Colorado and Mississippi, already use telehealth in prisons. The Pew Charitable Trusts concluded in a 2014 report that telehealth services can reduce health care spending on inmates. South Carolina spent $2,933 per inmate in 2011, according to the group. The national average is $6,047. MUSC telehealth medical director James McElligott said the technology is poised to improve the health of everyone in the state, including prisoners. “The technologies, when wisely applied, can transcend the significant challenges in providing care to this population and have tremendous potential for cost savings to our state,” McElligott said in a prepared statement. --------------------------------------------------- Mentions Corrections Secretary Wetzel Philadelphia Inquirer (07/10/2016) http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20160711_After_decades_behind_bars__juvenile_life rs_are_released_-_but_to_what_.html For 34 years, home for Daniel Peters has been a prison cell. He has been locked up since age 17, with the promise of life in prison. But on June 24, he was released to a halfway house in Philadelphia's Callowhill neighborhood. It was terrifying, but at least he knew just what to expect. He had been given a tour of the facility - using virtual reality goggles. Peters - the first to be released of 295 inmates from Philadelphia sentenced as juveniles to life without parole under a law the Supreme Court has since found unconstitutional is a test case in an unprecedented reentry challenge for the city. So, officials and nonprofit groups are piloting unprecedented measures as they wrestle with how to support reintegration - releasing inmates from prison in their 50s, 60s or 70s, with no savings, varying amounts of family support, and no experience navigating the world as adults. "We're trying to figure out the best path that we can put someone who was a child when they came to us," Pennsylvania Corrections Secretary John Wetzel said. "We're trying to figure out what reentry looks like if we want them to be successful." The needs are significant. Of 507 lifers statewide, 95 are on the prisons' active mentalhealth roster; half have a history of mental-health problems. There are 21 sex offenders among them. And 318 have been locked up longer than 20 years. The oldest, Joseph Ligon, is 78 and has been incarcerated since 1956, giving him the miserable distinction of being the world's longest-serving juvenile lifer. Like all other juvenile lifers, he has not had the chance to amass retirement savings, pay into Social Security, or earn a pension. All the inmates will have a chance at new sentences following the Supreme Court's January decision in Montgomery v. Louisiana. Peters received a commutation from Gov. Wolf. Others, such as Henry Smolarski and Tyrone Jones, both of Philadelphia, "We're trying to figure out the best path that we can put someone who was a child when they came to us," Pennsylvania Corrections Secretary John Wetzel said.

He tries to coach them in the transition from a world where time moved slowly to one where the pace is frenzied, and from a place with no choices to one where the simplest transaction - buying toothpaste, ordering off a menu - involves a dozen decisions. "But the biggest things are jobs, housing, family relationships, medical stuff, negotiating the bureaucracy," Gotzler said. And, most of all, "Where's money going to come from?" After all, short-term supports will help people in their first months out, but this could be a long-term, expensive burden for the city. "It's going to require resources," said M. Kay Harris, associate professor emerita of criminal justice at Temple University. "When we don't do such a good job with veterans of connecting them to [services], getting the political wherewithal to devote resources to people coming out of prison, particularly those who've been convicted of first- or second-degree murder, is going to be a political challenge," she said. Often, the burden of caring for elderly ex-offenders falls on nonprofits, public hospitals, and extended relatives, she said. "That has fiscal consequences. It's just that we don't see the costs as clearly as if we plan up front to see that these needs are met." Speaking at a conference on reentry run by Eastern University last week, Robert Hammond, the Department of Corrections' juvenile lifer project manager, said prison officials are organizing peer-support groups and lining up referrals. They're also examining inmates' visitor logs, and bringing those with few visits into family reunification programs to reconnect with relatives. "We're still looking for the financial means," Hammond said. "We can't take care of 507 juvenile lifers for the rest of their lives." The Philadelphia Reentry Coalition, a collaboration between city and nonprofit agencies, is organizing to fill gaps in support. Joanna Visser Adjoian and Lauren Fine of the nonprofit Youth Sentencing & Reentry Project are cochairing a committee on juvenile lifers. They said advocates have volunteered to work on issues ranging from food-stamp applications to protection from identity theft and fraud. But they said they were waiting to find out what the Department of Corrections will and won't provide. For Peters, the transition has been emotional. He was 17 when he accompanied his 24-year-old brother, Louis, to the home of a 73year-old woman, planning to rob her. According to news accounts, Peters came downstairs to find his brother beating the homeowner, who later died. Jackie Rupert, director of the Community Correction Center 2 in Philadelphia, where Peters will stay for a year, said she meets with inmates before they are released and matches them with a peer mentor who is staying at the center. She also arranges any necessary drug or mental-health treatment programs. By his third day out of prison, Peters had a phone number, but still did not know how to send or receive a text message. He is still with the same girlfriend he was dating at age 17; they may live together someday. But Kathleen Brown, a University of Pennsylvania nursing professor, who, with her students, had helped him with his commutation application, said Peters was taking it slowly. "He's totally overwhelmed right now. He's been in there since he was very young," she said. Now, "He's out there and he's like, 'What is all this?' " Gotzler said that the advice he gives lifers is simple: "Prepare to work. Take things slowly, one step at a time. And don't rush to catch up, because you can't." --------------------------------------------------- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (07/11/2016) http://www.post-gazette.com/news/state/2016/07/11/Federal-program-offers-collegeeducation-to-inmates-in-Pennsylvania/stories/201607040011 Federal program offers college education to inmates in Pennsylvania By Colt Shaw HARRISBURG — With the help of a federal effort to curb recidivism, up to 115 Pennsylvania prisoners will become college students this fall. Villanova University, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Bloomsburg University and Lehigh Carbon Community College will enroll students from six state and federal prisons in Pennsylvania. Classes will take place in-facility, online and over video conference calls, Secretary of Corrections John Wetzel said in an interview. Tyrone Werts, who graduated with the help of a Pell grant from Villanova in 1992 while locked up, now works with Temple University’s Inside Out program, which runs classes at correctional facilities where university students learn alongside inmates. He said education for those behind bars can have transformative powers. “It opens, expands people’s minds and gives them the confidence that they can do something else with their lives,” Mr. Werts said. “I don’t know where my life would be. Education put my life on a different trajectory.” Last summer, the Obama administration announced that Pell grants — worth nearly $6,000 a year per individual — would be given to universities to educate inmates scheduled for release within five years. The participating inmates, who will receive instruction from 67 colleges nationwide, will be able to take college classes at their current facility, with the purpose of gaining a certificate or degree. The federal government will spend $30 million to enact the Second Chance Pell Pilot Program in 27states. Pell grants are financial aid given to low-income undergraduate students. The grants do not need to be paid back, unlike loans. The amount given depends on need and cost of the institution a student plans to attend, but the maximum amount given for the 2016-17 school year is $5,815. A measure in President Bill Clinton’s 1994 crime bill forbade giving Pell grants to inmates, leaving educational opportunities for prisoners to be footed by private funding. But another federal law gives the president the authority to create pilot programs, with federal money, for experimentation and research purposes. In Pennsylvania, the program to provide college classes to 115 of the state’s 48,000 inmates will focus on seeing if “we can develop a body of research that says it works,” Mr. Wetzel said. “If it works, that would be reason to expand it,” he said. Some two-thirds of Pennsylvania inmates who are released will end up back behind bars within three years, according to a 2013 report on recidivism by the Department of Corrections. That number is on par with nationwide numbers, according to data published by the federal Bureau for Justice Statistics. In a 2013 study looking at prisoners released over three years, those involved in educational programs behind bars had a 43 percent recidivism rate. Participating Pennsylvania inmates will not take a full-time course load, department spokeswoman Amy Worden said. To be eligible, inmates will need to have a high school diploma or GED and apply for financial aid as any other student would, she said. Gov. Tom Wolf voiced support for the program, saying in a statement that having a college degree or certificate would give inmates a greater chance to become productive members of society. Villanova has run a similar program — the same one that helped Mr. Werts gain his bachelor’s degree — since the 1970s at Graterford State Correctional Facility. Providing educational opportunities at prisons is a way the university “practices its mission” as an Augustinian Catholic school “to provide for the public good,” spokeswoman Kate Meloney said. Villanova has a waiting list of professors hoping to participate. She said the Pell grants will allow the program to expand “to be able to serve more students.” Last fall, an internally funded program brought Bloomsburg students to a state correctional facility in Muncy to share a class with female inmates on corrections and rehabilitation. Positive feedback from students, inmates and the administration encouraged the university to participate in the Pell pilot program this year, said Jim Brown, dean of the university’s College of Liberal Arts. --------------------------------------------------Pennsylvania State & County Corrections State The Philadelphia Inquirer http://www.philly.com/philly/opinion/editorials/20160711_Inquirer_editorial__Numbers_ may_lie_when_setting_bail.html Numbers may lie when setting bail Editorial Board About 60 percent of Philadelphia's prison inmates are awaiting trial, but in trying to reduce that population, officials should be careful not to put too much emphasis on an algorithm designed to help judges determine which defendants should be granted bail. The algorithm, based on the past behavior of previous inmates with similar characteristics, supposedly can calculate the likelihood that a person will commit a crime if he is released before trial. The judge can then use that calculation in deciding whether to set bail. Research suggests algorithms can be more accurate than judges in predicting behavior. Experts say the tool helps avoid unnecessarily harsh punishments for low- and mediumrisk offenders. But lawyers and others have challenged the moral and legal validity of such algorithms. One glaring problem with some is their reliance on variables more strongly related to a person's race or income than their criminal background, including a defendant's zip code, education level, and leisure activities. Defendants who took IQ and reading tests during previous prison stays might see those results used against them. Some states use algorithms more effectively post-trial. The Pennsylvania prison system uses similar assessment tools when an inmate first arrives to establish custody levels and recommend housing, work detail, treatment, and program assignments, and later to help determine the conditions of release. Philadelphia's Adult Probation and Parole Department uses an assessment tool developed by University of Pennsylvania criminologist Richard Berk, who is leading the effort to develop an algorithm for pretrial decisions. Asked about the possibility that an algorithm could lead to discriminatory treatment of black and poor defendants, Berk said, "People who stress that point forget about the victims. How many deaths are you willing to trade for something that's race-neutral?" Other criminologists largely agree with Berk, saying their job is only to create the most accurate predictions of criminal behavior. They also argue that algorithms are more transparent and consistent than judges, who, as humans, have biases. Perhaps, but using an algorithm to determine a defendant's status prior to trial may be more detrimental than using a risk-assessment tool after a conviction. Studies show people detained before trial are more likely to be convicted and more likely to receive longer sentences. Where you live and how much you make isn't always predictive of criminal behavior. There are plenty of defendants from less-than-perfect neighborhoods who live up to the trust put in them when given the chance. Good judges, most of the time, can tell who deserves that chance, with or without an algorithm to help them. --------------------------------------------------- Altoona Mirror (07/08/2016) http://www.altoonamirror.com/page/content.detail/id/640299/Right-of-way-granted-atSCI-Cresson-site.html?nav=742 Right-of-way granted at SCI-Cresson site Road is key to developing power plant Gov. Tom Wolf on Thursday signed a bill granting a 3.3 acre right-of-way to develop a public road to the former Cresson state prison site in Cresson Township. Officials said the road is key to eventually developing a portion of the grounds into a natural gas power plant. State and local officials announced in May that a 93-acre plot was being transferred to the Cambria County Redevelopment Authority so the group could pursue a deal with a private developer that has not yet been named. The remaining 328 acres, which includes the former prison's buildings, was appraised at $730,000 and put up for sale. "The goal is to create jobs, business development and economic energy and make the venue a vibrant business location," Sen John Wozniak, D-Cambria, said in a press release. Wozniak had sponsored the bill, which the state House and Senate unanimously approved last month. --------------------------------------------------WPXI (07/09/2016) http://www.wpxi.com/news/arrest-warrant-issued-for-inmate-who-escaped-mercercounty-corrections-facility/394060007 Arrest warrant issued for inmate who escaped Mercer County corrections facility Pennsylvania State Police in Mercer County are searching for an inmate who escaped Friday from a corrections facility in Sharon. Cody Kuntz, 23, escaped about 4:30 p.m. from the Sharon Community Corrections Center on West State Street. Police said he ran out the kitchen door with a large garbage bag containing his clothes.

The declaration, made in January 2015, put the city’s long-troubled Correction Department in the vanguard of national jail reform efforts. But a year and a half later, the administration of Mayor Bill de Blasio is still struggling to pull it off. The city missed another deadline last week, and it is now requesting a second six-month extension. City officials had originally promised to end the use of the punishment for young adults by January 2016. Most of the 78 young adults who were in isolation at the beginning of the year have been moved out. But while the city has now eliminated segregation for the 16- to 18year-olds, there are some older, more difficult inmates remaining who cause such serious disciplinary problems, according to the correction commissioner, Joseph Ponte, that at least for now segregation is still needed. As solitary confinement has been emptied, the violence in the jail for young adults has significantly increased, Mr. Ponte wrote in a letter to the city jail watchdog agency last week. The correction officers’ union has long argued that ending the use of segregation would endanger guards and lead to greater violence. Eliminating solitary confinement is an expensive, labor-intensive proposition. To replace it, the city has created enhanced supervision units, with two officers and one counselor for every 12 inmates. Not long ago, a typical cellblock was overseen by one guard for every 50 inmates. A few weeks ago, The New York Times interviewed several of the nine remaining inmates under age 22 still in isolation at the part of the jail complex known as 3 South Segregation Unit. A correction officer and a member of the commissioner’s press office were present for the interviews; the inmates were shackled to a wall. “My first week I was in the box. I broke a guy’s jaw. He was big, too, so, you know, that boosted my ego.” Since arriving at Rikers in March 2015, Mr. Delgado says he has spent about 40 days in solitary. At times, he said, life in the box could be a relief from the violence of the regular population. “I was fighting the whole week,” he said. “So, I’m like, damn, finally a break. I used to wake up, and breakfast is like 4, 5 in the morning. So you got to fight for your cereal, so I’m like I didn’t even brush my teeth. My heart is pumping, and I got to get ready. I don’t know what’s about to happen but it’s about to go down. I was exhausted.” That feeling of safety lasted for only a few hours, he said. Other inmates yelled constantly, and he missed privileges like commissary and three daily phone calls. Mr. Delgado has been in and out of Rikers since he was 16, mostly short stints for drugs and other minor crimes. This time he is potentially facing a decades-long sentence for the murder of a 21-year-old man in Queens. “I think about it — damn this could be the rest of my life,” he said. “That’s why I got to have a radio or something to keep my mind off that, talk to someone.” He looks forward to his girlfriend’s visits. “She keeps me at peace. She reminds me of what I got in the town.” Because he is constantly in trouble, he and his girlfriend are separated by a glass partition during visits. He has not kissed her since September. “I forgot how her lips taste.” Kelvin Busgith, 21, charged with attempted murder Mr. Busgith has done several stretches in isolation during his six stays at Rikers, the longest for six months in 2014, when he was 18. He said he had no choice but to fight so he would not be seen as weak. “I don’t want to do time in the box, but eventually, due to the circumstances, I had to.” The entire time he was being interviewed, an inmate nearby in Cell 11 screamed profanities. Mr. Busgith said he did not hear it anymore. “He do that all the time,” he said. “He’s just killing time.” Mr. Busgith tries to speed up time. “You take your medication so you just sleep all day,” he said. “You talk with your peers, your colleagues. I’ve been locked up a long time. Lot of colleagues. You’ve got to be crazy to be in a cell 23 hours a day. Some people get locked up for shelter and food. I’m not one of those type people. I got a life outside.” He has an older brother, Michael, serving time upstate at Southport Correctional Facility, in Pine City, N.Y., a maximum-security prison where all of the inmates are held in solitary. “He in the box right now, too,” Mr. Busgith said. “He’s got to do a year and a half.” Though Mr. Busgith has never been upstate, he says his brother has told him it is better doing time there than at Rikers. Mr. Busgith said that at upstate prisons, “you get longer visits” and more recreation time. “You get to do better, you get commissaries better. Everything’s better upstate. It’s open, you in the open. Fresh air. You don’t breathe none of this Rikers Island stuff.” Tayshawn Waddy, 21, charged with murder “If we had the same privileges as general population, I wouldn’t mind staying here,” Mr. Waddy said. “It’s quiet, you get to stay to yourself. You’re safe. Got your own space, your own bed, your own toilet. You get to have your ‘me’ time. Get in population, you’ve got to worry about different personalities and everything else that comes with jail.” Mr. Waddy had been in solitary confinement for about 30 days. This is his first stint at Rikers. He has been there for two and a half years awaiting trial and spends a lot of his days reading books, “like gangster stuff,” and working out: “Fifty push-ups, then 50 situps, 50 dips, 50 jumping jacks. Relieves stress.” When he looks through the small window of his cell, he says, he can just barely see a television that hangs on a support column in the center of the cellblock, though there is no sound. He said he did not care about the closing of the solitary unit. “I’m just trying to go home,” he said. “I don’t pay attention to what’s going on.” Ariel Martinez, 21, charged with attempted assault Though Mr. Martinez has been in this country only three years, he is on his fourth stint at Rikers. He fled to the United States from Honduras, he said, after a group of men murdered his father. “I saw when they killed him,” Mr. Martinez said. “I was there.” To break the solitude, inmates lean against the steel cell doors — “getting up on the gate,” they call it — and shout back and forth to one another. They yell through the vents. During their one hour outside, spent alone in a bare recreation pen, they talk through the chain link fencing. Mr. Martinez speaks only Spanish, isolating him more than most. In solitary, inmates are at the mercy of guards for their most basic needs — meals, a shower, a sick call. They scream and bang their cell doors to get a guard’s attention. “I can’t talk to people; someone has to translate,” Mr. Martinez said in Spanish. “It’s stressful. Sometimes the guards shout at you. It’s hard to use the phone, get things.” He thinks it is good that the city is ending solitary confinement for inmates his age. “It gives people a second chance,” he said. “Someone gets brought here, they might not understand it.” To pass time, he reads if he has a book or magazine; National Geographic is a favorite. And he thinks about his case. “I’m facing an offer of three and a half years,” he said, “and I have to choose it or not.” --------------------------------------------------- ABCNews (07/07/2016) http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/private-prison-company-cca-face-trial-violencelawsuit-40417087 Private prison company CCA to face trial in violence lawsuit By Rebecca Boone BOISE - A federal judge says the Corrections Corporation of America will stand trial in December in a civil rights lawsuit over understaffing and violence at an Idaho prison. U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge made the ruling Thursday, scheduling a four-day jury trial for Dec. 13 in Boise. Eight inmates at the Idaho Correctional Center sued the Nashville, Tennessee-based private prison company in 2012, contending that poor management and chronic understaffing led to an attack in which they were jumped, stabbed and beaten by a prison gang. The inmates also contend that CCA covered up the understaffing in monthly reports to the state of Idaho, a practice they called a "ghost worker scheme" designed to boost profits despite putting inmates at risk. Two of the inmates were later dropped from the case, but six remain as plaintiffs. CCA has vigorously disputed the claims. "The safety and security of our facilities is our top priority," CCA spokesman Steven Owen wrote in an email to the AP on Thursday. "The Idaho Correctional Center was appropriately staffed at the time of this incident, and we are confident we will prevail on this claim at trial." CCA operated the Idaho Correctional Center for more than a decade under a contract with the Idaho Department of Correction. The company faced frequent lawsuits from inmates about violence at the facility, however, along with occasional criticism from state corrections officials. In 2013, an Associated Press investigation revealed CCA was falsifying reports in order to hide understaffing in violation of both a court order and the company's $29 million annual contract with the state. In 2014, Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter ordered IDOC to take over the prison. In their lawsuit, the inmates contended that CCA was working with a few powerful prison gangs to control the facility south of Boise and cut back on staffing. They pointed at CCA's practice of grouping members of the same gang together in housing units as evidence of their allegations, and they said that the housing practices and vacant guard posts led to a high rate of inmate-on-inmate violence. But in the order issued Thursday, the federal judge said the gang housing claim didn't pass muster. "That is, while there is evidence to suggest both the prior and instant attack were possible due to pervasive understaffing, there is nothing to suggest either attack was caused by the policy of clustering gang members together," Lodge wrote. The judge also noted that CCA had been held in contempt of court in a separate lawsuit for failing to adequately staff the prison as required, and he said that could be used as evidence when this lawsuit goes to trial. --------------------------------------------------Columbus Dispatch (07/08/2016) http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2016/07/08/ohio-jail-population-falling-butoverall-incarceration-rate-rising.html Ohio jail population falling but overall incarceration rate rising By Alan Johnson The number of people in Ohio jails is dropping, but the steadily rising inmate population of state prisons is more than enough to boost the state's overall incarceration rate. The latest update by the Vera Institute of Justice Incarceration Trends Project showed Ohio's jail population was 237.7 per 100,000 residents in 2014, well below the national average of 326 per 100,000 However, the combined jail and prison incarceration rate was 913.8 per 100,000, largely due to state prisons, now bulging with 50,847 inmates, fewer than 400 less than the alltime record. Ohio's overall incarceration rate increased 3.2 percent from 2006 to 2014, the Vera study said. Jails are local facilities, typically run by counties, where people are held after being arrested, pending trial, and for short sentences for relatively minor crimes. Prisons are run by the state and federal government. Inmates there are generally serving much longer sentences on felony charges. Vera officials said that while prison populations are falling in many other states, overall incarceration rates remain almost universally high. There are about 2.2 million Americans behind bars. The study also showed a dramatic disparity in incarceration rates for whites — far below their percentage in the general population — and blacks, who are in jail and prison well above their percentage in the population. Ohio was one of 16 states in which jail and prison trends diverged from 2006 to 2014, Vera said. Also, Ohio was one of just five states, including Arizona, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Wyoming, in which a declining jail population slowed the overall increase in incarceration. There were only four states, Florida, Idaho, Minnesota and Oregon, which showed a net decline in the incarceration rate. Christian Henrichson, the head of the Vera Center project, said, “While these data alone cannot explain why trends diverge, it’s now clear that they often do. Policymakers and the public must look at both prison and jail populations to measure the success of reform efforts.” Ohio's overall incarceration rate, 913.8 per 100,000 was the second lowest of all surrounding states. West Virginia was 832.2, Michigan 915.7, Pennsylvania 1,009, Kentucky 1026.4, and Indiana 1,039.8. Oklahoma had the highest incarceration rate in the country, 1,540.6, while Minnesota had the lowest, 430.5. The study provides detailed county data for Ohio, California, New York and Pennsylvania. Franklin County's jail incarceration rate was 239.7 per 100,000, compared to Hamilton's 324.6, Cuyahoga's 271.5, Montgomery's 237 and Lucas' 153.4.

They were in a large, airy room with quilts, cabinets and brightly painted walls. Nurses stopped by regularly. Three women from a church choir softly sang hymns to him on a June morning. A minister was in a nearby hallway. The scene plays out daily in hospices across Ohio, except for a key detail: the guard at the door. The patient was in Ohio's prison hospice, a small care center that has become a part of a national movement to offer compassion and dignity to felons in their final days. The trend in Ohio, however, results in a paradox for the prison system: As the state struggles to obtain drugs to execute death-row inmates, it has worked to become a leader in its hospice and long-term care for inmates. "People ask me, 'Why do you care about these people? They raped. They killed people. Why help them?' " said Rosalinda Lemaster, a nursing supervisor who works in the hospice unit. "I believe that it is the end of their lives and that they should die with someone there for them, someone caring for them. That's how I was raised. I believe that no one should ever have to die alone.'' Hospice care is an outgrowth of a spike in older inmates here and across the country. In 2010, older inmates made up one in eight inmates in the state. Today, the figure is close to one in six. Law professors say Ohio judges are doling out longer prison sentences, including more life sentences without parole. Some authorities also see an increase in older people committing crimes. Others say the Ohio Parole Board has kept too many geriatric inmates behind bars, despite the fact that those prisoners never again will commit another crime. Many likely will end up at the Franklin Medical Center, the Ohio prison system's hospital. In mid June, it had 232 inmates in need of medical care, 50 of whom were pregnant women. On the medical center's second floor, 43 men lived in a place that was far more of a nursing home than a prison. They required long-term care. Some inmates were spoon-fed pureed meals. Many spent the day unresponsive in bed. A few struggled to relate to others. One inmate moaned loudly, unable to speak. At the far end of the hallway, two rooms were set aside for hospice care. One has four beds, the other two. Each room has quilts, freshly painted walls and pictures. "It's not just the right thing to do, but it sends a message to the other inmates on the floor, 'We will treat you with dignity. We won't just put you here and leave you,' '' said the Rev. Leonard Hawley, the prison's chaplain. In one of the rooms, a killer lay in a corner bed, struggling to speak. He is 73, and he is serving a sentence of 15 years to life for killing a woman. Prison officials, citing his health and privacy concerns, would not release his name. He is ashen and exhausted when three women from First Community Church in Columbus stand at the foot of his bed and sing church hymns. He perked up a bit when a relative stopped by and spoke with him. A prison guard sat several feet away, watching but not listening. Felicia Nnadi, a hospice nurse, tried to make the dying man comfortable. She talked gently to him. When he needed something, she walked quietly to get it. Nnadi paid attention to the slightest details, the man's pain, his pillows and his ability to speak with his relative. But she refused to consider what he did to get sent to prison. "I don't want to know,'' she said. "To take care of people at the end of their lives is important. It's a calling.'' At 5:50 p.m. July 1, the killer who Nnadi had cared for died. For victims, the passing of a predator often brings a small sense of relief, said Teri LaJeunesse, the past president of the Ohio Victim Witness Association and the victims' advocate for the Greene County prosecutor's office. "The death of an inmate means victims won't have to worry about some things, such as parole hearings,'' LaJeunesse said. "But it doesn't help the emotional pain that was caused. You can't right a wrong.'' Those who work in prison hospice realize that pain, advocates say, and they also understand that they cannot change that. They simply work to comfort their patients. Linda Redford is the director of the Geriatric Education Center at the University of Kansas Medical Center. She has focused much of her work in the care of older inmates and those in hospice. "Some families will say, '(The inmates) need to suffer. They made us suffer,' '' Redford said. "But I think a lot of people realize that prison is the punishment and that inmates do not need to suffer more.'' Molly Helt has volunteered at Ohio's prison hospice for three years and worked to reduce suffering. "I'm not a fan of organized religion, and I'm not here to save anyone's soul,'' Helt said. "I'm here to make sure that people who are about to pass away have someone with them. That's so important. People should die with dignity.'' Scott Abram agreed. Abram, 49, is in the middle of serving 18 years to life for a slaying in Perry County. He is an inmate who volunteers as an aide at the hospice and in the long-term care unit. He and other inmates write letters, read scripture and make phone calls for the dying prisoners. He also helps those who struggle to take care of themselves. He said he even helps an elderly inmate brush his three teeth. Abram also has sat next to several inmates and watched as they took their final breaths. "We're often the only visitors they have,'' Abram said. "You sit down with them, and you make sure that there is someone with them at all times. You never want to leave them.'' --------------------------------------------------USA Today (07/08/2016) http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2016/07/08/texas-inmates-break-outcell-save-jailers-life/86870260/ WEATHERFORD, Texas — A Parker County, Texas, jailer who had an apparent heart attack may very well be alive thanks to inmates who put themselves at risk to help him. It happened on June 23 in a holding cell in the basement of the District Courts Building in Weatherford. At least eight prisoners were behind a locked door in a small room off to one side. Their lone guard sat outside and had been joking with them when he slumped over unconscious. “He just fell over," said inmate Nick Kelton. "Looked like an act. Could have died right there.” Kelton and other inmates began shouting for help. Then they managed to bust out of their holding room, even though they knew it was dangerous. We were worried they’re going to come with guns drawn on us," Kelton said Thursday. The guard had no pulse. Inmates screamed and banged on doors. They raised such a ruckus that deputies upstairs in court came running. “They thought it was a fight,” said inmate Floyd Smith. “They thought we were taking over.” Parker County Sheriff’s Sgt. Ryan Speegle said he didn’t know what to expect when he got downstairs. “He had keys," Speegle said. "Had a gun. It could have been an extremely bad situation." Speegle rushed in first to see inmates in their gray and white stripes handcuffed and shackled standing over an unresponsive guard. One prisoner reached for the radio, which was near the gun. “We were going to call, 'Mayday,' or something,'” Kelton said. Sgt. Speegle corralled the inmates, still not completely understanding what was happening, back into the cell. Deputies started CPR, and the paramedics arrived and shocked the guard, who regained a pulse. Inmates watched life returning. “He’s a good man,” Kelton shrugged. Deputies began CPR on the fallen jailer until paramedics Capt. Mark Arnett believes prisoners certainly helped the guard, and likely saved him. “He could have been there 15 minutes before any other staff walked in and found him,” Arnett said. Officials declined to identify the guard, who works for a private contractor. He didn't want to discuss the incident. He's expected to return to work next week. Kelton and the other inmates went to court expecting to do time, not to give it. “I watched him die twice,” he said. “It never crossed my mind not to help whether he’s got a gun or a badge. If he falls down, I’m gonna help him.” “Seems natural to me,” Smith added. Ironically, deputies said Smith is in jail for assault on a public servant. One more twist: The room that inmates broke out of to raise the alarm has now been reinforced. --------------------------------------------------- Vera Institute (07/11/2016) http://www.vera.org/news/new-report-analyzes-racial-disparities-new-orleanssmarijuana-policing Racial disparity in marijuana policing in New Orleans New Orleans, LA—The Vera Institute of Justice today released a report that examines racial disparities in marijuana arrests in New Orleans, outlines the impact of reforms the city has put in place to date, and identifies remaining issues in marijuana policing. Although people of different races self-report using marijuana at similar rates nationally, black people are disproportionately arrested for marijuana offenses in New Orleans. While some states have legalized marijuana in recent years, the consequences of marijuana possession in Louisiana remain severe—under state law, repeated convictions are punishable by multi-year prison sentences. Racial Disparity in Marijuana Policing in New Orleans analyzes arrest data from 2010 through 2015. It examines arrests for marijuana possession with intent to distribute—a felony offense—and simple possession with no intent to distribute (a misdemeanor for first- and second-time offenses, and a felony for subsequent offenses). Vera found that 85 percent of those arrested for all simple marijuana possession offenses are black, even though black people make up only 60 percent of the city’s population. It also found that black residents make up 94 percent of people arrested for felony simple possession. “Racial disparity in policing—regardless of the causes—mean that black members of our community too often face harsh and destabilizing criminal justice system involvement,” said Jon Wool, director of Vera’s New Orleans office and co-author of the report. “As we enact policy changes to move away from our over-use of jail as a response to minor crimes, it’s vital that we understand the racial impact of police and detention practices. This report is an important step towards mapping the full scope of adverse consequences of marijuana policing. We hope it will help guide state and local policymakers toward further improvements, and inspire other jurisdictions to examine their own practices.” As part of efforts to reduce the city’s jail size in recent years, the New Orleans Police Department now typically responds to marijuana possession offenses by issuing summonses—which allow a person to return to court without immediately being taken into custody—rather than using custodial arrests, which lead to jail time. This shift, which took place in 2011, has helped reduce the impact of criminal justice involvement for marijuana possession. Although summonses have been issued to black people and others at virtually the same rate for eligible offenses, black people are still more likely to have a police encounter make them eligible for arrest or summons. A deeper understanding of the adverse consequences of marijuana policing, overall, is needed in order to fully address its disparate impact on black individuals, families, and communities. The report found that in New Orleans: Racial disparities are greater in marijuana arrests than in arrests overall. While self-reported use of marijuana is similar across races and black residents are 60 percent of the city, 85 percent of those arrested for all simple marijuana possession offenses are black and 94 percent of people arrested for felony simple possession are black. Although there are persistent racial disparities in the frequency of police responses to marijuana, officers used summonses instead of arrests at the same rates across races. From 2012 to 2015, police issued summonses for black and white people alike in approximately 70 percent of instances of first-offense marijuana possession. People arrested for felony marijuana possession spend an average of 14 days in jail pretrial at an average cost of more than $1,400 per person. Of the people arrested and charged by a police officer with felony marijuana possession in 2014 and 2015, , 35 percent did not end up being charged by the district attorney with felony possession—they either had their cases refused or were subsequently charged with only misdemeanor possession. In order to decrease the disparate harm inflicted on black residents, city policymakers should uncover and mitigate the root causes of racial disparity in all police practices.

Generally, my supervisors look for compliance with jail rules, cleanliness of the housing units, cleanliness of the cells, repair items, odors, any type of damage to the facility (outside of normal wear and tear) and to listen to the housing officers concerns. Occasionally, they will address an inmate issue directly but typically, the housing unit officer is the 'go to' person for questions and requests (we also have a kiosk system). Also, what I do is ask the housing unit officer if I can enter the housing unit (I want the inmates to see and hear that type of control by the housing officer). As for the rounds or tours, at least every thirty minutes but our goal is every 15 minutes (This may not apply to special housing issues: suicidal etc.).In addition, we require the housing unit officer to get from behind the duty station and walk around and observe the inmates, behaviors etc. This actually works well, as the inmates now know, we are up and about.

On July 11, 2016,1was aSSIgned to the B2 housmg unit. Lieutenant FIsher had forwarded me an . email that was from Counselor Neff regarding her seeing Inmate Miller talking to counselor Neff about inmates getting commissary from inmate Ammerman. Inmate Miller did tell Counselor Neff something about one of the inmates involved was inmate Green. I was observing and noticed that inmate Ammerman and Inmate Miller were around each other most of the night till after med pass, after Inmate Ammerman then started to be around Inmate Goodlunas; not once did I see inmate . Ammerman with or talk to inmate Green. I then emailed Counselor Neff about my thoughts of Inmate Miller just being jealous because herself and inmate Ammerman are not popular among the block and she was jealous that what seems like her only friend was getting other friends. I was then in the 82 housing unit on July 12, 2016, and I was approached by other inmates telling me that inmates Goodlunas and Ammerman are a ?thing? and that inmates Green and Goodlunas are using inmate Ammerman for both her commissary and her money. They also told me that inmate Goodlunas thinks that the ?thing? with inmate Ammerman is a joke and is just ?playing? her. I then talked to Counselor . McGhee about the situation to keep everyone informed. While I was with Counselor McGhee we did 5 check both inmate Goodlunas? and Green?s commissary accounts and found that inmate Ammerman?s mom had in fact, put money on inmate Goodlunas' books but not inmate Green?s. Later that night, I was doing a unit check and inmate Ammerman stopped me and told me about talking to Counselor . Neff and a phone call with her mother. She then went on to tell me that she would like Inmate Miller out of her cell because she is ?calmer? when she is not with inmate Miller. She went on to say that inmate Miller talked to Counselor Neff about her and inmates Goodlunas and Green. She admitted 1 buying commissary for Goodlunas and giving her some items that she did not like that she had ordered. I then instructed inmate Ammerman to stop buying other people commissary and let them worry about themselves and have her focus on her. I then made Lieutenant Allen aware of the situation.

A fact‐finding investigation has been started into the death of a drug‐detecting dog that died after being mistakenly left  in a hot car for two and a half hours by its handler, the state Department of Corrections has confirmed.  The 2‐year‐old yellow lab named Totti was left in the vehicle during a training exercise at the state prison at Rockview,  near Bellefonte, said Amy Worden, corrections spokeswoman. Totti was a member of the state Department of  Corrections Drug Interdictions Unit.  Worden said that the dog's handler, Sgt. Chad Holland, had stored training items in a vehicle at the end of a training  exercise at 12:15 p.m and didn't realize until 2:44 p.m. that the dog was locked in the car. When they removed the dog  from the vehicle, the dog handlers and other Drug Interdiction Unit staff tried to cool Totti with a water hose and ice.  Totti was conscious when he was transported to a nearby veterinary clinic at 2:58 p.m. By 4 p.m., his body temperature  had stabilized but his creatine levels and heart rate remained high, Worden said. He died at 7:30 p.m.  "Everyone involved was incredibly and understandably upset and concerned for the dog," said the statement issued by  the department. "Unfortunately the dog did not survive. This has been very devastating for everyone involved.  Worden confirmed that Holland is the dog's handler and that Capt. Scott Vangorder is head of the Drug Interdiction Unit  K‐9 Academy.

‘I’m moving on,’ little boy says as mom, step‐dad go to prison for keeping 11 kids in filth  By Matt Miller  4 One of Takeya Fluellen's 11 children told a Dauphin County judge Tuesday that he doesn't care if he is ever returned to  the care of his mom, who had him living in an incredibly filthy, trash‐strewn home in Steelton.  The little boy, who will enter fifth grade this year, spoke to Judge Deborah E. Curcillo via a letter read by Deputy District  Attorney Katie Adam during the sentencing hearing for Takeya Fluellen and her husband, Tyree.  "She did some things wrong because she has to go to jail," the boy, who is in foster care with his siblings, wrote. He told  how much he likes foster care and how "I want to stay here" instead of returning to his mother and step‐dad.  I'm just moving on because they are leaving soon," the child wrote.  The Fluellens each were sentenced by Curcillo to 1 to 2 years in state prison, plus 8 years of probation under agreements  they struck when they pleaded guilty to multiple child endangerment charges last month. Takeya Fluellen, 34, also was  sentenced to an additional 2 years of probation in a welfare fraud case.  Public Defender Mary Klatt told the judge that Takeya Fluellen "realized that the conditions in the house were bad," but  that the family was in financial turmoil. They only lived in the home periodically, Klatt said, and were preparing to move  to a new, clean residence.  "She was so desperate to keep the children for herself that she didn't turn to Children and Youth Services for help," Klatt  said  The couple was arrested after Steelton police and children and youth workers responded to reports of an odor at their  home. The Fluellens and the children, ages 2 to 14, fled when officials arrived.  Investigators said the home was inundated with trash and feces and was swarming with maggots and flies. There was no  furniture and the toilet wasn't working and was packed with human waste. Officials said six of the kids had a bacterial  infections from ingesting feces.  Klatt said Takeya Fluellen takes responsibility for those conditions and has undergone several programs while in the  county prison to make her a better mother. "Ultimately, she wants what's best for her children, even if that means she  never gets the back," Klatt said.  "I want you to know I love my children," Takeya Fluellen told the judge. "I want you to know I was not trying to harm  them. It was the selfishness of not wanting to lose them."  Wendy Grella, the attorney for Tyree Fluellen, the 29‐year‐old biological father of five of the children, said her client had  a tumultuous childhood with an alcoholic mother. He saw his stepfather kill his baby sister by stepping on her neck,  Grella said.  "He never wanted the children to remain in such dirty circumstances," she said of the Steelton home. "The family was in  financial ruin...He told me from Day One that he's ashamed of what occurred."  Tyree Fluellen told Curcillo he was trying to improve the family's conditions when he was arrested. "I want what's best  for my kids," he said. "I always tried to do the best I can."  The judge was openly skeptical, noting the couple are repeat offenders regarding the care of their kids. "For both of  them, this is not the first time these type of conditions have occurred," Curcillo said.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐      House News Release (07/12/2016)  State Rep. Kevin Boyle   D‐Philadelphia/Montgomery  Boyle’s prisoner transport vehicle bill signed by governor  HARRISBURG – A bill giving emergency vehicle designation to Philadelphia Prison System prisoner transport units  sponsored by state Rep. Kevin Boyle, D‐Phila./Montco., was signed into law by Governor Wolf on Friday, July 8.    "My bill, H.B. 898, is important because this designation allows prisoner transport units to operate using flashing lights  when transferring prisoners," Boyle said. "There is no doubt this will reduce risks associated with prisoner transfers."  Due to the vast State Road prison complex, prisoners are transported across Northeast Philadelphia every day. All of  these transfers can potentially lead to problems if there are traffic issues or one of the prisoner transport units gets into  an accident.  Boyle explained that prison transports are subject to high‐volume traffic, which poses a risk when moving prisoners from  location to location. Also, the complex infrastructure of the City of Philadelphia makes it necessary for prisoner transport  units to have a clear path to facilities.  5 The bill also allows high ranking fire department officials, such as a fire chief or assistant in chief, to use flashing lights  when responding to emergencies in both fire department and privately‐owned vehicles.  "I am thrilled that this bill is finally a law because it will definitely make Philadelphia’s streets safer," Boyle said.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Both men — Jonathan Rodriguez Melendez, 26, and Dontrace Marcus Blaine, 29 — entered guilty pleas on the new  allegations prior to sentencing, a press release from U.S. Attorney David J. Hickton indicated.  According to Hickton, Melendez was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge David S. Cercone to one month in jail on his  conviction of a charge of escape after conviction. The sentence will run consecutive to his current sentence.  On Oct. 10, 2015, Melendez escaped from the Federal Prison Camp at FCI‐McKean while incarcerated for a conviction of  conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute and to distribution of heroin, Hickton stated. He received the heroin‐ related sentence from the Western District of New York.

of possession of contraband, Hickton reported. He was also sentenced before Cercone.  According to Hickton, on July 1, 2015, Blaine possessed a weapon in prison.  Officers at FCI‐McKean investigated both cases, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Christian A. Trabold prosecuted them on  behalf of the government.  6   ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐        County  York Dispatch (07/12/2016)  http://www.yorkdispatch.com/story/news/local/2016/07/12/york‐county‐prison‐part‐time‐officers/86990222/  York County prison seeks more part‐time officers  By David Weissman   York County Prison employees have worked more overtime hours than expected this year, and the warden is hoping to  hire more part‐time corrections officers to compensate.  Warden Mary Sabol asked the county commissioners during Monday morning's salary board meeting to consider adding  12 part‐time positions.  The 12 positions used to exist, Sabol said, but they have been cut for budgetary reasons over time since 2011.  The prison is currently allotted 386 full‐time officers and 45 part‐time officers, and Sabol said she believes the additional  part‐time employees will reduce the need for full‐time officers to work overtime.  Sabol pointed to the snowstorm in January, when travel was restricted, and a small fire at a work release site as major  reasons for the increase in overtime hours worked this year.  The prison has typically burned through approximately 50 percent of its budget by this time of the year, but Sabol said  they are currently "significantly above" that percentage.  If the department goes over its expected budget, Sabol said, it would just affect the prison's general fund.  Sabol added that the additional part‐time employees would have minimal impact on the budget because the positions  don't include benefits and have lower wages than full‐time employees.  Part‐time corrections officers work approximately 16 hours per week but are required to complete the same training as  full‐time officers, she said.  Sabol said the prison has a large number of applications to sort through, and she's hoping to begin training a class of 21  officers in the fall. That class would include the additional 12 part‐time officers and nine others to fill current vacancies.  The commissioners are expected to vote on Sabol's request Wednesday morning at their weekly meeting.    ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    National Corrections

TALLAHASSEE ‐ Florida has no plans to stop offering kosher meals to prisoners, but corrections officials don't want a  federal judge telling them they have to keep serving up the special diet, which consists largely of sardines and peanut  butter.  A federal appeals court will hear arguments Tuesday in a drawn‐out challenge over the kosher meals. The state has  spent nearly $500,000 in the lawsuit, filed by the U.S. Department of Justice nearly four years ago, but legal wrangling  over the religious meals has lasted more than a decade.  U.S. District Judge Patricia Seitz last year ordered the Florida Department of Corrections to offer kosher meals and  barred the agency from removing inmates from the religious dietary plan if prisoners buy non‐kosher food from  canteens or don't pick up the meals more than 10 percent of the time.  While they don't intend to do away with the kosher diet they've been forced to offer, corrections officials contend that a  federal law ‐‐‐ the "Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act" of 2000 ‐‐‐ law allows them to stop offering the  meal plan if it gets too expensive.  Lawyers for the state also have argued that the cost of the program could pose a security threat and that the agency  should be able to drop it if it chooses.  7 The agency has a large budget deficit, needs to spend money on capital improvements and has growing medical costs,  Florida Assistant Attorney General Lisa Kuhlman Tietig wrote in a March court filing.  "Just because the Department (of Corrections) has made a policy decision at this time to provide a kosher diet in the  face of these compelling budgetary issues does not mean that the department's interest in containing costs is not  compelling, nor does it mean that RLUIPA (the federal law) mandates the department making such a decision in the face  of all of the serious and compelling budgetary issues facing the department," Tietig wrote.  But Justice Department lawyers argued that the cost of the program doesn't let the state off the hook.  "In other words, 'prison officials cannot simply utter the magic words "security and costs" and as a result receive  unlimited deference from (courts) charged with resolving these disputes,' " U.S. Assistant Attorney General Vanita  Gupta, head of the civil rights division, and other Justice Department lawyers wrote on Feb. 24, quoting a separate case  dealing with inmates and religious practices.  In August, Seitz permanently banned the department from using a "zero‐tolerance" policy that removed inmates from  the kosher‐meal plan if they were caught eating regular meals or purchasing non‐kosher food from the canteens,  something corrections officials have already abandoned. And her order also bars prison officials from kicking inmates off  the kosher plan if the prisoners miss 10 percent or more of their meals in a month, another policy the department says it  has discontinued.  Keeping Seitz's permanent injunction in place "will ensure that prisoners with a sincere religious belief in keeping kosher  will not, in the future, have to choose between not eating and violating their faith," the Justice Department's lawyers  wrote.  The fight over kosher meals in Florida prisons, playing out Tuesday in Miami before a three‐judge panel of the 11th U.S.  Circuit Court of Appeals, has dragged on for more than a decade.  The department started offering kosher meals in 2004 to Jewish prisoners at 13 facilities and transferred inmates who  were eligible for the meals to those institutions. The agency expanded the program to inmates of all faiths in 2006 but  halted it the following year before reinstating it as a pilot project at a single prison in 2010, serving fewer than 20  prisoners.  A year after the Justice Department filed the lawsuit in 2012, the state again began serving kosher meals and promised  to have the meals available to all inmates by last July.  Two years ago, prison officials switched to all‐cold meals, consisting largely of peanut butter and sardines, served twice a  day, prompting some inmates to complain that the unappetizing diet was aimed at discouraging prisoners from signing  up for the kosher plan.  Corrections officials had argued that the cost of the kosher meals, an option not only for Jewish prisoners but for Muslim  and Seventh‐Day Adventists whose religions also proscribe dietary restrictions, could cost the state up to $12 million a  year because the food cost nearly twice the amount of regular grub.  About 9,000 of the state's 100,000 prisoners are receiving kosher meals, according to department spokeswoman  Michelle Glady. As of Monday, the state was spending $3.32 per inmate per day on kosher meals, according to  department spokeswoman Michelle Glady. As of Monday, the state was spending $3.32 per inmate per day on kosher  meals, compared to about $1.97 for the regular diet.  But Justice Department lawyers argued that the cost of the program is just a fraction of the corrections agency's nearly  $23 million food service budget, and an even smaller slice of its overall $2.3 billion budget.  About 1 percent of prisoners in other states and the federal Bureau of Prisons participate in religious meal programs,  while Florida's participation rate is more than 9 percent, according to court documents.  Lawyers who represented a Jewish prisoner who was denied a kosher diet questioned Florida's numbers.  "The issue here is that Florida is really the lone holdout among the major prison systems around the country that's really  trying to say that they should be able to, at any time, stop taking care of the religious needs of its prisoners. And that's  very dangerous," Becket Fund for Religious Liberty lawyer Daniel Blomberg said in a telephone interview Monday.  The Becket Fund represented inmate Bruce Rich, who dropped his case after Seitz gave corrections officials until mid‐ 2015 to offer kosher meals to "all prisoners with a sincere religious basis for keeping kosher."  The Justice Department derided the state's $12 million estimated cost of the program as based on "a set of dubious  assumptions regarding participation and pickup rates and questionable allocation of costs to the RDP (Religious Dietary  Program) and savings to the mainline meal."  Florida's "worst‐case scenario" estimate is 10 times more than what other states actually pay for kosher meals,  according to court filings.  8 "At the same time they're providing (kosher meals) in a very unattractive, unappetizing way, but also claiming just  massive participation rates, extraordinarily high participation rates compared to anywhere else in the country,"  Blomberg said. "And they're claiming extremely high levels of expense, again compared to anywhere else in the country.  So it seems very suspect."  Providing the religious meals could reduce Florida's overall prison costs, Blomberg said, citing research showing that  allowing inmates to practice their religion can help reduce recidivism.  "Prisoners aren't popular, and making provisions for prisoners can be unpopular. But the reality is that prisoners are  human, and that denying their right to seek God strips away their human dignity," Blomberg said. "It goes to the issue of  human dignity. It goes to the issue of every individual to be able to seek God as their faith requires. And then it goes to  the significant benefits to society that are provided when you provide access to faith in prison."  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    The Daily American (07/12/2016)

Former felons across country fighting for voting rights  By Sara Weber  Of the 200,000 former felons in Virginia who were given the right to vote this past April through their governor's  executive order, only about 9,000 have registered, according to NPR.  Republican officials are suing the Democratic governor, Terry McAuliffe, for overreaching his powers, asserting that he  may only restore voting rights on a case‐by‐case basis.  The Virginia Supreme Court will hear the case on July 19.  "It doesn't do anybody any good to try to disenfranchise anybody and make it harder for them to reintegrate themselves  into society,” Anthony Puryear, who was recently released from prison, told NPR. “A lot of them need every freedom  they can get.”  McAuliffe, who said he will sign all 200,000 restoration cases by hand if the court rules against him, denied allegations  that he restored rights to help Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton earn more votes from the state.  Those suing McAuliffe say the process has resulted in numerous mistakes, including restored voting rights to offenders  still in prison. Aides for the governor told NPR there were a few errors, but that they were remedied and that it is still a  crime for anyone in prison, on probation or on parole to officially vote in an election.  Disenfranchisement laws, or the loss of ability to vote, vary state by state and reinstatement of voting rights to former  felons is becoming a topic of debate across the nation. Earlier this week, the Miami New Times reported that Florida has  laws that restrict former felons from voting, but not from donating to campaigns.  And the Iowa Supreme Court upheld a ban on felons voting this past June.  Former convicts are stepping up in states like Louisiana, where more than 70,000 felons recently filed a lawsuit  demanding their right to vote.  And, lawmakers in Delaware approved a bill in June allowing felons to vote before they’ve paid off all fines and  restitution. The decision comes three years after the state decided to waive a five‐year waiting period for all felons  looking to cast a ballot.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    The Marshall Project (07/12/2016)  https://www.themarshallproject.org/2016/07/12/u‐s‐attorney‐general‐loretta‐lynch‐will‐probe‐private‐prisoner‐ transport‐industry?ref=hp‐3‐112#.pKTOSNQJu  U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch Will Probe Private Prisoner Transport Industry  By Eli Hager   U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch told lawmakers Tuesday her office would investigate apparent lapses in federal  oversight of private prisoner transportation companies, the subject of a recent Marshall Project investigation that  revealed a pattern of deaths and abuses in the industry. Under questioning by Rep. Ted Deutch (D‐Fla.), Lynch told the  House Judiciary Committee that she was unfamiliar with the industry, which the Justice Department is tasked with  monitoring under a 2000 law that has been enforced only once. At a key moment in the questioning, Chairman Bob  9 Goodlatte (R‐Va.) interrupted to insist that Lynch “look into this in depth, and report back to the committee.”“We would  very much require that,” he added.  Also on Tuesday, Sen. Cory Booker (D‐N.J.) urged Lynch in a letter to probe possible abuses on for‐profit transportation  vans, which carry tens of thousands of people every year across millions of miles. “It is critical that the Justice  Department uncover whether abuse of prisoners and conditions of confinement violations by private prison transport  companies and their officials violated laws and regulations within the Department’s jurisdiction,” Booker wrote.  The Marshall Project story, published July 6 with The New York Times, was the result of a seven‐month investigation into  private transport companies used by 26 states and countless localities to extradite suspects and fugitives.A review of  thousands of court documents, federal records and local news articles and interviews with guards and executives  revealed a pattern of deaths, neglect, escapes and accidents in the industry. Four people have died since 2012 on vans  run by the largest company in the business, Prisoner Transportation Services.  Among them was Steven Galack, whose story Deutch recounted during the committee hearing. Galack was living in  Florida when he was arrested for failing to pay child support and placed on a private van for extradition to Ohio. He grew  agitated on the trip, and two prisoners said a guard on the van directed the other prisoners to beat him. Mr. Galack was  found dead in Tennessee. His cause of death was undetermined.   Deutch asked why a 2000 law intended to regulate the industry has been enforced by the Justice Department only once  in 16 years. “General Lynch,” he said, “I’d just ask what else can be done for us to focus on an issue that we were so  concerned about here in Congress 16 years ago that we passed legislation, but that legislation seemingly goes unnoticed  or certainly unenforced.”Lynch responded that all prisoners should be treated humanely and fairly and offered to review  the issue, which she said was new to her. At that point, Goodlatte interrupted. Reached later by phone, Deutch called  the chairman’s intervention pivotal. “The chairman going on record to ask that the Attorney General provide a report to  us — that elevates this issue into a priority for the House Judiciary Committee,” Deutch said. The committee hearing  focused primarily on the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails.  Deutch’s office plans to send follow‐up questions to Lynch’s office, including examining the four deaths. Steven Galack’s  brother Robert said he was struck by news of the hearing.“Who would ever imagine something positive would come of  this?” he said. “For a guy who died penniless on a prisoner transport van to be mentioned before Congress, that is  almost vindication.”    ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Simkins From: Sent: To: Subject: Krista Davis Wednesday, July 13, 2016 8:48 AM Krista Davis Wellness Tip July 13, 2016                                Having A Bad Day? Here Are 7 Things You Definitely Shouldn't Do    by Shannon Kaiser     We all have bad days, bad weeks, or even bad months—times it feels like we're trapped by circumstances.  It can be hard to find your way out of a bad mood.  Most advice will focus on what you should do to feel better. We know thinking positively and being  compassionate with ourselves can help. But no one really talks about what you shouldn’t do.      Recently, I experienced a funk that pulled me down hard. I tried to reach for my bag of happiness tricks,  things like “think good thoughts,” “do what you love,” “call a friend,” but none of it helped. So instead, I  focused on what I was doing that might be making things worse and stopped doing those things. Pretty  soon, my mood improved. So, if you're feeling down and those old standbys just aren't cutting it, start  thinking about what you might need to stop doing.    1. Feeling bad for feeling bad.  Trying to be happy all the time shouldn’t be our goal. It's impossible! The idea that we aren't supposed to  feel our full range of emotions often keeps us stuck. Instead of thinking you're in bad shape because  27 you're angry, sad, depressed, or frustrated, simply allow yourself to be present with your emotions and let  them move through you. In doing this, you can release them and make room for peace.    2. Focusing on the problem, not the solution.  It may feel good to share your troubles, but complaining over and over about the same issue not only  affects your friends’ well‐being—it can actually hurt you. Instead of complaining, just identify steps you  can take to pull yourself into a more balanced state.    3. Eating your feelings.  It may feel good for a moment, but as soon as you're done eating your comfort food, guilt and shame set  in. In a study, college‐age women who were concerned about their eating behaviors reported that their  moods were actually worse after bouts of disordered eating.  Next time you're tempted to reach for the mac and cheese or ice cream, remind yourself that this will  probably exacerbate your bad mood and opt for healthier foods. Choose snacks that make you feel  healthier from the inside out. My go‐to items are smoothies and kale chips.    4. Stewing in entitlement.  Everyone has bad days, but feeling like the world owes you something is an easy way to find yourself in a  bad mood. Instead of feeling like a victim, be grateful for what is working in your life. Appreciation can go  a long way.     5. Avoiding fresh air.  Getting outside will boost your mood instantly. Instead of hibernating indoors with Netflix, get out and  enjoy the outdoors. Sunlight is nature's antidepressant, after all.    6. Staying in your head.  When we're in a rough mood, we tend to focus on what isn’t going well. We replay negative situations and  outcomes. Instead of wallowing in self‐pity or overanalyzing past drama, start living. Do activities that  bring you joy: coloring, cooking, reading a good book, or doing yoga.    7. Not moving at all. Ever.  Even if it feels like the least appealing thing in the world, five minutes with an elevated heart rate will  boost your mood for hours thereafter. Take a new exercise class or find a buddy to take a walk/jog through  the park with you. Moving your body will help you feel more balanced, in control, and ready to bounce  back from a "blah" mood.    (www.mindbodygreen.com)    Krista Davis Risk Manager & Wellness Coordinator  Centre County Government  P. 814‐548‐1055  F. 814‐548‐1157          28 This tip is solely for informational purposes. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE. Centre County  Government is not making any recommendations regarding any treatment, procedure, exercise, dietary  modification, action or application of medication which results from reading or following the information  contained in the Wellness Tip emails. The publication of this information does not constitute the practice of  medicine, and this information does not replace the advice of your physician or other health care provider.  Before undertaking any course of treatment, diet or exercise program, the reader must seek the advice of  their physician or other health care provider.  29 Kristen M.

Simkins From: Sent: To: Subject: Krista Davis Thursday, July 14, 2016 8:53 AM Krista Davis Wellness Tip July 14, 2016 Facts About Your Digestive System     Like most things related to our bodies, we only pay attention to our digestive system when it's giving us a  problem. Otherwise, we tend to overlook it and put all sorts of things into it without a second thought.  Although we learn about the process of digestion in high school, most of us had other things on our minds  back then. But knowing how your digestive system is supposed to work can help tremendously in terms of  overall digestive health ‐ knowledge which can help you take better care of your digestive system, more  quickly identify any possible digestive problems, and help you to communicate more effectively with your  doctor.    (1) The length of your entire digestive system is approximately 30 feet long.      Your digestive system is responsible for breaking down the foods you eat so that you can absorb vital  nutrients. Food is broken down mechanically ‐ through chewing, for example, and through the use of  enzymes ‐ into the form of molecules that can be absorbed by and moved through your blood. Your  digestive system is made up of the following organs:   Mouth   Esophagus   Stomach   Liver   Gallbladder   Biliary Tract   Small Intestine  5  Large Intestine  (2) Our mouths secrete approximately one liter of saliva a day.   Saliva production through our salivary glands is the first step in digestion. Saliva is predominantly made up  of water, but does contain other substances, and can be stimulated by just thinking about or smelling  food. Food breakdown begins in our mouths through the process of chewing, and through enzymes  present in saliva. Saliva both lubricates food for easy passage into the esophagus, and coats the food to  protect our teeth and the lining of our mouth and esophagus.  (3) It takes anywhere from two to five seconds for food to make its way down your esophagus into your  stomach.  After we've chewed our food, it's formed into something called a bolus. Swallowing is a complex  procedure in which the bolus is moved into the pharynx, the larynx (the organ connected to our windpipe)  is covered, and the esophagus opening is widened to accept the bolus. The bolus is then moved down  through the esophagus through coordinated muscle movements known as peristalsis.  The esophagus is bound on each end by a sphincter muscle, which is responsible for opening to allow the  bolus to pass through. Heartburn can occur when the lower sphincter fails to close completely, allowing  stomach acid to travel upward and irritate the tissue in the esophagus and throat.  (4) Your stomach produces hydrochloric acid (the same stuff that masons use to clean bricks.)  Luckily, our stomachs are lined by a thick layer of mucus to protect us from the acid and the enzyme pepsin  that it produces. The mixing motion of the stomach, along with the acid and the breakdown of protein by  the pepsin, turns the bolus into a liquid substance called chyme, which in turn is then slowly released into  the small intestine. For a full meal, this process takes approximately two to three hours.  Only a few things are absorbed into the bloodstream at the level of the stomach, and interestingly, these  are the very things that can cause stomach irritation: alcohol, aspirin and non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory  drugs (NSAIDs).  (5)Your pancreas and liver are not so mysterious...     Gallbladder in green, liver in maroon, pancreas in tan.   ...the primary role of each is to produce substances that break down the foods you eat.  As the chyme makes its way into your small intestine, it's met with juices produced by the liver and the  pancreas. The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and then released into the small  intestine to break down fats, while the pancreas secretes enzymes into the small intestine that break  6 down protein, carbohydrates and fats. The pancreas also releases a substance called bicarbonate that  neutralizes any acid that's made its way out of the stomach.  (6) Your small intestine is responsible for almost all of the absorption of nutrients from the foods we eat.  The small intestine is where the most important work of digestion takes place, that of further breaking  down the food we eat into molecular components that can be absorbed into the bloodstream. You may  remember from high school biology that the small intestine has three parts: the duodenum, the jejunum  and the ileum. Bile from the gallbladder, and digestive enzymes from the pancreas, are mixed into the  chyme in the duodenum. The final breakdown and absorption of nutrients occurs in the second two parts.  Absorption of nutrients is conducted by microscopic projections along the lining of the small intestine  called villi. Celiac disease is a disorder in which the ingestion of gluten results in damage to the villi, which  in turn can lead to health problems stemming from the lack of absorption of vital nutrients.  (7) Fiber is what's left over when all the other parts of food have been digested.  Once the small intestine has completed its breakdown of food and absorption of nutrients, it propels the  undigested parts of plant food, known as fiber, into the large intestine. Fiber is classified into two general  types: soluble, which dissolves in water, and insoluble, which does not. Fiber both softens and bulks up the  stool, and is essential for both digestive and overall health.  (8)Your large intestine receives about one quart of liquid a day from the small intestine.  In addition to fiber, the small intestine propels liquid into your large intestine, where it's absorbed and  stools are formed. The large intestine is made up of the ascending colon, the transverse colon, the  descending colon, the sigmoid colon, and the rectum. Although there's great variation in frequency, the  stool is in general moved once or twice a day into the rectum in preparation for a bowel movement.  (9)Your GI system plays host to more than 500 species of bacteria.   We are not born with any bacteria in our digestive systems, but develop a significant population within the  first month, most of which can be found in our large intestine. Recognition of the role that bacteria play in  digestive health has stimulated booming sales of products containing probiotics, often labeled as "friendly  bacteria." Bacteria fight off disease‐carrying organisms, play a role in absorbing nutrients that slip past the  small intestine through fermentation, and help to support our immune systems. You're most acutely  aware of the work of bacteria when its process of fermentation causes you to experience intestinal gas.  Small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a health condition in which too many bacteria are present in  the small intestine. SIBO has been theorized as a possible factor in the development of IBS for some  individuals.    (https://www.verywell.com)  Krista Davis Risk Manager & Wellness Coordinator

Sampsel Subject: Apex Inmate Medical Program   Hi Sheriff Sampsel,    Apex is a Wholesale Insurance agent that specializes in Municipalities. By working through local independent insurance agents, we help Counties like yourself find the best solutions for your Property and Casualty Insurance needs. Being the Sheriff I wanted to introduce a product that we can offer. I know several Counties work directly with ACCO, but if you are interested in the below product please have a local agent of your liking contact me. I appreciate your consideration and hope to be of service in the future.    Apex has a program to protect a County’s budget against costly and catastrophic Inmate Medical Expenses. It is not health insurance, but a reimbursement policy with a limit and deductible per inmate. Coverage is with an “A” rated admitted insurance company.    This policy is very low maintenance. Once bound, the Company deals directly with the County to reimburse covered inmate medical expenses paid to local providers including, physicians, hospitals and clinics. I have researched this huge governmental expenditure and a single county jail can incur millions of dollars for inmate healthcare. A County in Pennsylvania paid over $7,000,000 in 2015 and a County in Florida has spent $5,000,000 year to date.     1 According to an online government procurement website, this risk paid AMOUNT for inmate medical expenses.    If you would like an indication with a cost benefit analysis, please send me 1 to 3 years of the County’s annual medical expense per inmate and I will determine if it makes sense to insure this exposure. The savings could be very significant.    Thanks!        Anthony C. Strianese  Intern for Yolanda Stark   Apex Insurance Agency, Inc.  111 W Jackson Blvd   Suite 1502   Chicago, IL 60604  (312) 985‐9954 (Direct)   www.ApexInsurance.com      CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: The information contained in this communication, including attachments, may contain privileged and confidential information that is intended only for the exclusive use of the addressee.

Simkins From: Sent: To: Subject: Krista Davis Friday, July 15, 2016 9:42 AM Krista Davis Wellness Tip July 15, 2016 Quick Core Workout Routine The Plank This quick core routine begins with the plank exercise. The plank provides a great warm‐up that engages  all the muscles of the core: the rectus abdominis, the internal and external obliques, transversus  abdominis, the hip flexors, the erector spinae and multifidus.  Begin in the pictured position. Keep your torso straight and rigid and your body in a straight line from ears  to toes with no sagging or bending. Hold the position 15‐60 seconds while maintaining control.  To increase the difficulty and intensity of this movement, alternate lifting one arm out in front of you while  maintaining your posture for 10 seconds and repeating on the other side. You can do the same with each  leg, by lifting your foot up and holding that position for 10 seconds and repeating on the opposite leg.  The Side Plank     4 The side plank engages the often‐overlooked muscles that help support the core ‐‐ the lateral stabilizers  from the ankle to the shoulder. This is one simple and effective exercise to help increase lateral hip  strength and stability and keep the obliques and transverse abdominis strong.  Begin in the pictured position and keep your body stiff from head to toe. Hold the position 15‐60 seconds  while maintaining control, and be sure to do both sides!  To increase the difficulty and intensity of this movement, alternate lifting your top leg up a few inches and  holding it for 10 seconds while maintaining your balance.  The V‐Sit Abdominal Exercise     The v‐sit is an effective abdominal and core exercise that works the rectus abdominis, the external  obliques, and internal obliques. This exercise also engages the hip flexors.  To do the V‐sit, start in a seated position on the floor, contract your abdominal muscles and core, and lift  your legs up to a 45‐degree angle as pictured. Reach your arms straight forward or reach up toward your  shins as you are able. Maintain good core posture and a strong spine while you hold the position for  several seconds. Rest and repeat several times. As you get stronger, hold the position longer.  The Bicycle Crunch     The bicycle crunch exercise is one of the best exercises for the rectus abdominus and obliques, according  to an abdominal exercise study done at San Diego State University.  To do the exercise, lay flat on the floor with your lower back pressed to the ground. Rest your hands  behind your head without pulling on your neck. Bring your knees up to about a 45‐degree angle and slowly  go through a bicycle pedal motion as pictured. First, touch your left elbow to your right knee, then your  5 right elbow to your left knee. Perform the exercise in a slow, controlled motion. Repeat 10‐25 repetitions  on each side.  Push Up Lat Row     Start in a push up position with each hand on a dumbbell (begin with a light weight to learn the  movement). Complete a full push up. Once you return to the start position you will add a dumbbell row;  raise one dumbbell while stabilizing your body with the other arm and lower the dumbbell gently to the  ground and repeat another push up.  The Bridge Exercise     The hip bridge exercise isolates and strengthen the gluteus (butt) muscles and hamstrings (back of the  upper leg). This, along with the single leg bridge exercise, are good core strengtheners that target both  the abs and the low back muscles. The bridge exercise is considered a basic rehab exercise to improve core  and spinal stabilization.  Hold the position pictured above for 15‐60 seconds while maintaining control. If you do the single leg  bridge as well, be sure to do both sides!  To increase the difficulty and intensity of this movement, alternate lifting up on your toes so heel come off  the ground and then reverse it with the toes off the ground and your weight on your heels.  The Single Leg Bridge Exercise   6     The single leg bridge exercise is the next step after you've mastered the bridge exercise. This move is a  great way to isolate and strengthen the glutes and hamstrings, but when you do this exercise correctly,  you will also find that it is a very powerful core strengthener.  Start on your back, hands by your sides, knees bent and feet flat on the ground, directly under your knees.  Lift up into a bridge position, and tighten your core.  Slowly raise and extend one leg. Keep your pelvis raised and level, try not to let one side dip down.  Work up so that you can hold this position 20 to 30 seconds while maintaining control. Be sure to do both  sides.    (https://www.verywell.com)     Krista Davis Risk Manager & Wellness Coordinator

http://highline.huffingtonpost.com/articles/en/sandra‐bland‐jail‐deaths/  Sandra Bland died one year ago today and since then at least 810 people have lost their lives in jail  (Contains PA state and county prison data)  By Dana Leibelson and Ryan J. Reilly  er the past year, there have been so many stories of violence and injustice in America, and even the most well‐known  deserve to be revisited. This is one: Last July, Sandra Bland was pulled over by a Texas state trooper for, he said, failing  to signal when she changed lanes. After the 28‐year‐old questioned his instruction to put out her cigarette and refused  to get out of the car, the trooper arrested her for assault of an officer. Bland didn’t have enough money for the $500 bail  bondsman’s fee, and so she was held in jail. Within 65 hours of her arrest, she was dead. The coroner determined that  she had hanged herself with a noose fashioned from a garbage bag.  What made Bland’s death so shocking—the reason that millions of people watched the dash‐cam footage of her arrest  or closely examined her mugshot—was the mystery at its heart. What had really happened inside the Waller County jail?  If Bland had taken her own life, how could she have reached a state of irreversible despair so suddenly?  Deaths inside American jails frequently go unnoticed, sometimes even unrecorded. Unlike prisons, jails hold people for  only short periods—about 21 days on average—and many of their inmates have not been convicted of a crime.  Additionally, jails typically aren’t required to release public information about people who die within their walls. The  federal government publishes only generalized data years after deaths occur, making it nearly impossible to identify the  most dangerous facilities. So we attempted to fill the gap.  Huffington Post reporters collected the names of people who have died in jail since the day of Bland’s death: July 13,  2015. We scoured news reports and press releases, gathered official records, searched court dockets, filed public  records requests, and contacted more than 100 agencies. When news stories omitted details such as the date of arrest  or official cause of death, our reporters tried to obtain that information, either directly from the jail or from the office of  the medical examiner who conducted the autopsy. Not every agency that we contacted responded, and our database  remains incomplete. It will be updated as we receive outstanding record requests and information from the public.  We found evidence of 811 fatalities—an average of more than two per day. (By way of comparison, 178 unarmed people  were killed by police during the same period, according to The Guardian.) And like so much else in this realm, the burden  is not borne equally. Black people are more likely to die in jail because they are more likely to be arrested than any other  racial group, for reasons that have as much to do with double standards in the justice system and historic oppression as  they do with crime. African‐Americans make up 13 percent of the U.S. population and, on average, 32 percent of people  who died in jail between 2000 and 2013, according to federal data.  Many people believe Sandra Bland did not take her own life. But the circumstances of her death fit a recognizable  pattern. In a significant number of the cases we found, people killed themselves within just a few days, even when they  3 had been arrested on minor charges that were extremely unlikely to result in prison time. Nearly one‐third of the deaths  we found were suicides. And at least one‐third of people died within three days of being booked. (Some of the  descriptions of suicides that follow are graphic.)  This April, Bland's mother, Geneva Reed‐Veal, visited Washington, D.C., to deliver a speech at the Library of Congress.  “By a show of hands,” she asked the audience, “can any of you tell me the other six women who died in jail in July 2015  along with Sandra Bland?” Nobody could. Those women are recorded here, along with hundreds of others.  In addition to these names, we learned a great deal about the inner workings of a world that is almost entirely hidden  from the public. We learned why some people become frighteningly vulnerable to harming themselves within a  frighteningly short period of time. And we also learned that it doesn’t have to be this way.  ter Bland died, her family and friends questioned whether she had really ended her own life. She was about to start a  new job, had recently rekindled her relationship with her mother, and seemed optimistic about the future. Why would  she kill herself? The idea was “unfathomable,” her sister told reporters.  Suicide has been the leading cause of death in jails in every year since 2000, according to the latest Justice Department  data. This is not the case in prisons, where inmates are more likely to die of cancer, heart and liver disease. There’s a  reason for this difference. People land in jail right after they’ve been arrested. They’re often angry, desperate or afraid.  They may be intoxicated or have psychiatric conditions that officers have no way of knowing about.  The experts we spoke with emphasized that entering jail is an instantly dehumanizing process. “You get clothes that  don't fit you, you get strip‐searched, you lose any semblance of privacy, you don't get to make many decisions that we  all take for granted,” said Jeffrey Metzner, a psychiatrist at the University of Colorado in Denver who specializes in  inmate mental health. “I don’t think most of us realize just how frightening that experience is,” added Steve J. Martin, a  corrections expert who is monitoring reforms at Rikers Island Correctional Facility in New York City. “You have a total  and absolute loss—immediate loss—of control over your being, over your physical being.”  Under these circumstances, people can deteriorate at an alarming speed. About two weeks after Bland's death, 20‐year‐ old Brissa Lopez was arrested for allegedly fighting with her boyfriend, and arrived at a Texas jail around 4:47 a.m. She  was “very cooperative” and “chuckled as she removed her tongue and lip ring,” according to a sergeant who admitted  her. Staff checked on her at 6:15 a.m. Some 40 minutes later, she was found hanging from a fire alarm cage by a  bedsheet.  Brian Schnirel was arrested by deputies in Palm Beach, Florida, for failing to appear in court for a DUI. After two days, he  was found hanging from a shower vent. Catherine Rowell, an unemployed housekeeper, was arrested because she  allegedly violated a protection order by being at her boyfriend's house. Three days later, she hanged herself with a metal  braided phone cord.  In its last annual report on jail deaths the Justice Department found that 40 percent of the inmates who died in 2013, or  387 people, had been behind bars for a week or less. One‐quarter of the suicides in our data occurred within the first  three days. (This number should be considered low, since we have not yet obtained a cause of death for 237 cases.)  There are several distinct groups of people who can be at risk when they arrive in jail. There are those charged with  violent crimes and sex offenses, who may fear long prison sentences or being targeted behind bars. Another group  occupies the opposite end of the spectrum entirely—people who have been arrested for very minor offenses. We  identified dozens of suicides of jail inmates who were arrested on low‐level offenses such as public intoxication, drug  possession, trespassing, traffic charges, DUI and theft.  Then there are those who have become enmeshed in a cycle of short jail stints because they can’t pay fines for minor  violations or afford to post bond. (This is a particular hazard for minorities; research has found that black Americans  between the ages of 18 and 29 receive significantly higher bail than other racial groups, for example.) Bland herself had  some knowledge of this cycle. While unemployed, she had racked up thousands of dollars in fines and fees in connection  with traffic charges. Her lawyer believed he could get a 2010 marijuana charge dropped, according to The Nation, but  Bland couldn't afford to pay him, so she spent nearly a month in a Houston jail.  When someone’s existence is already precarious, even a short jail stint can seem like a catastrophe. People may fear  that they will lose a job, or a relationship, or a home, or be unable to care for a child. These feelings are often amplified  by other risk factors—drug and alcohol withdrawal, disrupted prescription medications, lack of basic medical or mental  health care.  In March 2011, Donyale Thomas, a 32‐year‐old mother living on a fixed income in Berkeley, Missouri, arrived in the city’s  three‐cell lockup. At the time, Berkeley, like nearby Ferguson and many surrounding cities in St. Louis County, relied  heavily on fines and fees for revenue, and Thomas owed hundreds of dollars in municipal code violations. She is part of a  4 lawsuit in which she says she was kept in the Ferguson jail for a week over outstanding tickets and denied access to  medicine for her bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.  In the Berkeley jail, Thomas soon started to feel “like an animal,” she recalled. She was placed in a windowless cell with  two bunk beds. “I wasn’t able to bathe or anything or take care of my hygiene. I wasn’t able to see my kids. There were  like three or four women in the cell. Pads were laying around the cells,” she recalled. “My mind started going in other  routes and started thinking all opposite things and crazy things.” After a while, she said, “It gets to the point where you  think, ‘OK, I just want to find my way out of this.’”  Thomas said she told guards she was suicidal and they took away her blanket. A dispatcher was instructed to keep an  eye on her via closed‐circuit video. But Thomas had a backup plan. “I still had my bra on. So that’s what I ripped up and  tied up there,” she said. Thomas’ cellmate alerted the guards, who reached her before she asphyxiated.  Frank McCall, the Berkeley police chief, argued that Thomas never really meant to kill herself. Her cell, he said, had  “enough room where if they want to get up and pace the room, she could’ve paced the room three, four, five steps one  way and back and forth.” He added that his officers weren’t aware of Thomas’ mental health issues: “We don’t know  what she really has going on,” as he put it. But McCall believes Thomas’ real intent “was to get out of jail.” After the  guards found her, they took her to hospital, where she was admitted for psychiatric evaluation. The doctors deemed her  “not fit for confinement.”  1982, fewer than half of jails reported doing even cursory medical screening of new inmates. Back then, the suicide rate  was much higher—107 per 100,000 inmates in 1986. Jails took some steps over the following decades to address this,  and the suicide rate dropped almost threefold between 1986 and 2006, according to one study. And yet today, even  though all inmates should ideally go through a screening process that includes access to mental health and medical  professionals, those procedures aren’t always adequate or followed correctly. Due to this and other factors, in 2013, the  suicide rate in jail was more than three times that of the general population.  In many facilities, the first person to interview an inmate is an officer who is often poorly paid and sometimes minimally  trained. He or she may have to make vital decisions about a person’s risk of self‐harm and whether to call for additional  mental health help. During the screening, jails may also take into account outside information from family members, the  arresting officer and other sources.  But sometimes jails appear to miss even the most glaring warning signs. Alberto Carlos Petrolino, a 50‐year‐old chef and  artist, was arrested last July, after his ex‐girlfriend called 911 to report that he planned to kill himself on the Golden Gate  Bridge, according to a lawsuit filed by the family. Petrolino's family contacted the jail to warn staff that he might try to  take his own life, the lawsuit states; his mother was so worried that she took a bus to the jail, said Petrolino's son, Fabio.  And yet Petrolino wasn’t treated by a doctor or placed in specialized housing for suicidal inmates, the family claimed.  Within 72 hours of his arrival, Petrolino had hanged himself in a shower. (The San Francisco City Attorney's office did not  respond to a request for comment.)  In March, the Burkburnett Police Department in Texas arrested 22‐year‐old Marcus Johnson for possession of a fake ID.  When he was booked into the police lockup, he told officers he had attempted suicide three times, including a few  weeks earlier. He explained to the screening officer that he had depression and bipolar disorder and had previously  been institutionalized. However, Johnson shook his head when asked whether he was currently suicidal and wasn’t put  on suicide watch—even though his mother called the jail and told an officer her son urgently needed his psychiatric  medication.  At one point, an officer checked in on Johnson and found him crying. No one came back to check on him for just over  two hours, during which time he hanged himself with the drawstring of his pants. Michael Whaley, the Burkburnett city  manager, said the police department is evaluating its policies as a result of the incident. Two officers involved were  disciplined with a one‐day suspension and a letter of reprimand, respectively.  In other cases, officers fail to notice signs that an inmate is experiencing drug or alcohol withdrawal, which could pose a  suicide risk. Usually if someone is high or intoxicated, “their presentation is not subtle,” said Pablo Stewart, a psychiatrist  who has served as an expert witness in corrections cases. “Come on, open your goddamn eyes, smell the guy—he's  reeking of alcohol, look at his arms, he has track marks, look at his pupils...make a diagnosis,” he added.  In April 2015, Jason Johnston and his girlfriend were arrested for allegedly stealing between $500 and $1,500 worth of  items from a Walmart Supercenter in Westworth Village, Texas. Johnston had a history of obsessive‐compulsive  disorder, attention deficit disorder and depression. He self‐medicated with hydrocodone, turned to heroin because it  was cheaper, and was using every day by the time he was arrested, said his brother, Cody.  5 Johnston was sent to a small lockup run by the Westworth Village Police Department. An officer who helped arrest him  also did his mental health screening. He observed that Johnston "appeared to be nervous and upset," and was worried  about his girlfriend. When Johnston couldn’t come up with around $190 for his bond, he became distraught.  Still, the officer did not list Johnston at risk for suicide or drug withdrawal, and placed him in a sparse cell alone.  Westworth staffers weren’t required to check on inmates in person, an officer and a detective said when questioned  later. Instead, the dispatcher was meant to monitor him over a surveillance camera once an hour. Johnston paced  around his cell and chalked a note to his girlfriend on the ceiling. In a subsequent statement, the dispatcher did not  mention the moment when he walked to the phone on the wall and tried to wrap its cord around his neck. Nor did she  note seeing him remove the drawstring from his red athletic shorts.  She checked the camera around 4 p.m., and again at least an hour later. The second time, Johnston was hanging from  his top bunk by the drawstring. He was later found to have opiates, hydromorphone, hydrocodone and morphine in his  system. His brother was walking out of a baseball game when his father called to say that Jason was dead. “I didn't know  my brother had been in jail,” Cody Johnston said. (The Westworth Village Police Department declined comment through  their attorney.)  Jails with fewer than 50 inmates have a suicide rate five times higher than larger jails, according to a 2002 Justice  Department study. Jonathan Smith, the former chief of the DOJ’s Special Litigation Section, said small police‐run jails  simply aren’t equipped to confine human beings. “In order to insure that [inmates] get adequate medical care and  nutrition and are protected from violence and what have you, you can’t have a 10‐person jail and do that in a  meaningful way,” Smith said.  And yet all the experts we interviewed agreed that suicides are highly preventable in a controlled environment like a jail.  “People often say, ‘Well, if somebody wants to kill themselves, they’re going to kill themselves,’” said Margo Schlanger,  a law professor at the University of Michigan who specializes in criminal justice. “That’s false. If you run a jail with an  appropriate degree of suicide prevention, you get almost zero.”  jail in Brazos County, Texas, which has around 650 inmates, has had only one completed suicide in the past 10 years,  according to Kit Wright, a sergeant and nurse at the county sheriff's office. The county makes an effort to keep people  with mental health issues out of jail: Last year, crisis intervention officers diverted 214 people to mental health facilities  instead of charging them with a crime. And the jail employs another noteworthy tactic. After being screened by an  officer, inmates go through a separate interview with a nurse. In this second conversation, inmates tend to be more  open about things like drug use and mental health history. People will “answer one way to someone in uniform, and  different to someone in scrubs,” Wright said.  Not every jurisdiction can afford around‐the‐clock medical coverage. But there are plenty of effective suicide‐prevention  strategies available, many of them surprisingly low‐tech. “If you talk to any of the experts in the field, they will tell you  that we know how to stop people from committing suicide in jail,” said Samuel Bagenstos, who formerly held the  second‐highest position in the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division. “You need to do decent screening of people as they come into  jail, and you need to put people in places where it’s not easy for them to kill themselves. At some level, it’s not really  rocket science.”  An officer who arrests someone shouldn’t do the mental health screening, Hayes said. Interviewing inmates in private  makes it more likely that they’ll answer truthfully. He recommends that staffers have, at a minimum, eight hours of  training on suicide prevention so they understand how to assess an inmate's actions and history. They also need clear  instructions on when to call for medical or mental health personnel.  Getting the screening process right is crucial, because there is no way to make a cell suicide‐proof. (The preferred term  in the correctional industry is “suicide‐resistant,” which means ensuring that cells don't have clothing hooks, corded  phones, exposed sprinkler heads, laundry bag strings or mattresses that can be easily ripped.) As  Raymond Patterson, a psychiatrist who has worked as a court monitor in corrections cases, explained, an inmate who’s  determined enough could “run across the cell and jam [his] head into the door.”  What does make a profound difference, Patterson said, is when officers interact with inmates and pass relevant  information to mental health staff. “How about you talk to him?” Patterson suggested. “And you ask him questions like:  'How are you? What's going on in your life?'” It can take as little as five minutes for death to occur by strangulation, so  people who are at high risk of suicide need to be under continuous watch. That means in‐person contact, not watching  remotely via a surveillance camera. (The Texas Commission on Jail Standards, for example, bans camera‐only  observation.) People at lower risk should be monitored in person at least every 15 minutes, at staggered intervals, Hayes  said.  6 Ultimately, though, the most difficult challenge is not figuring out how to prevent inmates from harming themselves. It’s  compelling the jails to change the way they do things. Jail systems, for the most part, are “reactive, not pro‐active,”  Hayes said. They tend to change their policies only after there are multiple suicides in a short period, which can draw  negative media attention and lawsuits.  At the beginning of the Obama administration, Tom Perez, the incoming chief of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, which is  responsible for jail oversight, tried to step up investigations into jails and prisons. (In the Bush years, such efforts had  “proceeded at a snail’s pace and resulted in relatively few enforcement actions,” according to a confidential report  circulated by the Obama‐Biden transition team.) But Perez’s team found that it was incredibly difficult to figure out  which jails were the most dangerous. “There was no national surveillance system that allowed there to be a sorting of  the cases. They would come in pretty haphazardly,” said Jonathan Smith, the former DOJ official. “We would have cases  where you wouldn’t get reports of deaths because the person died at the hospital, for example. Or they’d be discharged  from the jail as they were being loaded into the ambulance, so it wouldn’t be reported.”  In theory, there was a straightforward solution: Focus on the jails with the most deaths. But the Bureau of Justice  Statistics, which counts fatalities, keeps most of its data to itself. In order to encourage jails to participate, it only  releases statewide totals, not the names of the most deadly institutions. BJS does not even share that kind of  information with the rest of the Justice Department. “That was one of the things that frustrated Tom Perez to no end,”  Bagenstos said. “How can we be sure we’re going after the places that were really the worst?”  And the most likely places to escape scrutiny are the small jails and police lockups where problems are so prevalent.  “These are very, very resource intensive cases,” Bagenstos explained. For both the DOJ and outside advocacy groups,  mounting complex lawsuits against institutions that hold only a handful of people can be hard to justify.  There was a time when many states carried out regular inspections of jails. But in 1996, Congress passed legislation that  limited inmates’ ability to bring lawsuits challenging conditions in jails and prisons and circumscribed the power of  federal courts to order reforms. Many states subsequently cut back on jail inspections or eliminated them altogether. All  of this means that from the outside, it’s nearly impossible to identify when a jail has a problem until it's too late.  In the year after Sandra Bland died, the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, which oversees county jails, recorded 25  suicides. In at least 11 cases, they found a violation of minimum standards. The commission introduced a new intake  form that includes simple questions like, “Are you extremely worried you will lose your job, position, spouse, significant  other, custody of your children due to arrest?” It also spells out that an officer must call a supervisor if an inmate  answers yes to a question. “The form has to be able to be done by anybody,” said Brandon Wood, executive director of  the agency.  That form went into effect in December 2015. Last year, there were 33 suicides in county jails in Texas. This year, as of  June, there had been eight. It would be premature to attribute the decline to the new form, said Diana Spiller, a  research specialist at the commission, but its experts are “optimistic.” Simple acts, it seems, can save lives. The question  is whether enough people are interested in that.

editorial/87025836/  Death penalty demands strong defenders  By the Editorial Board  7 Take the case of Mark Spotz.  In 1995, the Clearfield County man went on a rampage in four Pennsylvania counties, killing four people, including one in  York County.  His crimes were beyond senseless. They were beyond brutal. They were heinous.  If anyone deserves to die strapped to a gurney at the State Correctional Institution at Rockview, it is Mr. Spotz.  That is clearly an emotional argument. The reality of the matter is that during his trials, Mr. Spotz chose to defend  himself. The old joke, any defendant who chooses to do so has a fool for a client, has some validity. It could be said that  Mr. Spotz did not receive adequate legal representation, especially considering the gravity of the offenses and the  ultimate penalty.  That is a difficult argument to make, since Mr. Spotz chose, by his free will, out of either hubris or stupidity, to act as his  own attorney.  Mr. Spotz has been appealing his multiple death sentences. After his initial appeals had been exhausted, the Federal  Community Defender Office became involved in his case. The non‐profit organization has expertise in death penalty  cases and is permitted to represent some of the most notorious and reprehensible killers on death row in state court.  In the course of Mr. Spotz's appeals, former state Supreme Court Chief Justice Ronald Castille was highly critical of the  office, writing, in essence, that its attorneys were too good at their jobs, litigating death penalty cases with the kind of  thoroughness and attention to detail that you would expect from a private law firm with more than adequate resources. "A zealous representation of your client – that's fine," he said in a recent interview. "But being a zealot is different."  Maybe it's a fine line.  But does not change the simple fact that, no matter how you feel about the death penalty, our justice system demands  that a person facing the loss of his or her life for committing the most terrible offenses receive the best legal  representation possible.  That's why some death‐row inmates – including four current condemned men from York County – have sought  representation by the Capital Habeas Unit of the Federal Community Defender Office. The organization specializes in  representing death‐row inmates, a specialty that few legal general practitioners focus upon.  The office, which gets some of its funding from the federal government, usually practices in federal courts, and not all of  the agency's offices become involved in what are considered state‐level cases.  But in Pennsylvania, the office serves a definite purpose. The commonwealth is the only state in the country that does  not provide funding for defense counsel in capital cases in instances in which defendants cannot afford attorneys.  Its attorneys are thorough. Benjamin Lerner, a former Philadelphia Common Pleas Court judge, said that whenever one  of the office's attorneys appeared in his court, he knew he would have to work "awfully hard." The attorneys, he said,  litigated every relevant issue, and those cases did not return to his court with appeals citing inadequate counsel.  Lerner summed it well: "We have no right, I think, as a society to say, 'On the one hand we want to have the death  penalty, but on the other hand, we aren't going to provide the resources for a constitutionally adequate defense for  people who we're seeking to put to death,'" he said.  That is the issue in a nutshell. And it provides more than enough justification for Gov. Tom Wolf's 2015 moratorium on  executions, an executive decision that, by the way, has been upheld by the state Supreme Court.  Prosecutors had sought to forbid the office from representing defendants in state court, citing, among other things,  jurisdictional issues, a tactic that was rejected by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. The court's chief judge,  Theodore McKee, wrote that systemic attempts to disqualify the office's lawyers was "all the more perplexing and  regrettable" considering the volume of evidence suggesting that inadequate representation risks gross miscarriages of  justice.  The bottom line is that our Constitution requires even those accused of the most heinous acts receive more‐than‐ adequate representation in court. That is essential for our criminal justice system to function properly.  Without it, we not only violate the rights of people like Mark Spotz, but we also diminish ourselves.     ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐  Patriot News (07/14/2016)  http://www.pennlive.com/news/2016/07/canine_deaths_in_cars_a_common.html  Following police dog's death, Pa. corrections officials consider safety devices for cars  By Lizzy Hardison   8 After one of its drug‐detecting dogs died of heat exposure in a hot car, the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections is  researching car‐monitoring technology to prevent similar incidents in the future, a local vendor said Wednesday.  Bill Castle IV, manager of Castle's K9 training facility in Mechanicsburg, said the Department of Corrections contacted his  business last week to request a quote for car systems that would sound an alarm or open windows if the vehicle's  internal temperature reaches critical levels.  These systems range in price from $900 to $1,500, Castle said.  The inquiry from the Department of Corrections came after Totti, a yellow lab and member of the department's Drug  Interdictions Unit, died of heat exposure on July 7. His handler, Sgt. Chad Holland, left him in a vehicle for two and a half  hours during a training exercise at the state prison at Rockview, near Bellefonte, according to the department.  Car monitoring systems are critical to preventing one of the most common fatalities among police canines, according to  Chris Heslop, president of the Ohio non‐profit Police Canine Association. Heslop said that deaths like Totti's are "not only  the handler's fault," since it is "not uncommon practice" to leave a canine unattended in a car.  "You can't always bring your dog inside with you if you're working," Heslop said. As a result, "heat injuries are a huge  issue" that he estimates can kill up to a dozen police canines a year.  Unlike service dogs that accompany people with disabilities, police canines do not always have access to enter private  buildings or crowded spaces, Heslop said. When officers are performing an arrest, patrolling an area, or filing paperwork  inside a precinct, they will likely leave their dog in their squad car.  Heslop said temperature monitoring systems can save dogs' lives when their handlers are preoccupied with other  policing duties. Heslop said that he is "100 percent dependent" on his own system to keep his dog safe in hot  temperatures.  "My dog's been left in the car because we're in a standoff with a hostage," Heslop said. Thankfully, he said, his  monitoring system was able to stabilize the car's internal temperature.  Heslop said he believes car monitoring systems should be standard items in any canine patrol vehicle, but he and Castle  acknowledge that the devices can be cost‐prohibitive for smaller police departments.  Heslop, however, believes that any department that chooses not to invest in car monitoring systems "needs to explain  why they chose not to have it."  In an incident such as Totti's death, where a dog did not have the safeguard of a car monitoring system, Heslop believes  that the responsible handler ought to face charges for the animal's suffering.  "They have to be responsible for their actions," Heslop said. "It's not different than leaving a kid in the car buckled in  their child's seat. We have to create a better system and better accountability for our [canine] partners because they  can't let themselves out of the car."  Jeffrey Justice, an advocate in Colorado who compiles the Police K9 Handler Review, has recorded 18 incidents of police  canines dying in hot cars since 2015. He says that Totti's death is the eighth such incident in 2016 alone.  Despite the frequency and gravity of canine car deaths, Justice said police departments are slow to punish negligent  handlers or implement safeguards to protect canines.  "Canines have the status of being a police officer, so this is a fellow officer causing the needless death of another police  officer," Justice said. "[The handlers] usually get away with it in some way."  Justice said that some handlers who cause the death of their canines are immediately fired, while others may face  animal cruelty charges.  In Cherokee County, Ga., Lt. Daniel Peabody of the Cherokee County School Police Department recently was arrested  and charged with aggravated cruelty to animals after he left his canine in a vehicle for three hours.  The Department of Corrections has initiated a fact‐finding investigation into Totti's death, but a spokesperson could not  say whether or not Holland would face charges in the incident. Representatives from the North American Police Work  Dog Association, where Holland was a candidate to become a Master Trainer, are also waiting on the results of the  investigation to determine his standing with their program.  "It is a tragic incident, like everyone else we're waiting until the investigation is completed," said Rick Ashabranner,  president of the North American Police Work Dog Association. "Until we get the final outcomes I'm not going to  speculate."     ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Totti, a yellow Labrador retriever, was left inside his trainer’s vehicle last Thursday, according to a DOC public statement.  The handler, Sgt. Chad Holland, stored some things in a vehicle around 12:15 p.m. and did not realize until until 2:44  p.m. that Totti was inside the car as well, Amy Worden, DOC spokeswoman, told PennLive.  Totti was still conscious at that point and staff tried to cool him down with ice and a hose before taking him to a  veterinarian. Though veterinary workers managed to stabilize his body temperature, Totti’s heart rate remained too  high. He died several hours later.

shows. Children are also extremely susceptible to the heat because they produce more heat relative to their size than  adults do, and their abilities to cool themselves by sweating aren’t fully developed, emergency medicine doctor Nathan  Allen told Web MD.  A pending bill in the Pennsylvania legislature would make confining a dog or cat in a hot car a criminal offense, and give  authorities the legal power to remove the animal from the vehicle, according to the Animal Legal Defense Fund.  But while Pennsylvania does not currently have any laws that specifically address leaving animals in hot cars, it is “illegal  to deprive an animal access to shelter which will protect the animal from elements and preserve body temperature,”  Sgt. Nicole Wilson, field supervisor with the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, told HuffPost. Wilson was unable to comment on the specifics of Totti’s case, but noted that “we have successfully prosecuted cases  where animals were left in cars during extreme temperatures suffering harm as a result.”  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     Centre Daily Times (07/14/2016)  http://www.centredaily.com/news/local/crime/article89412962.html  Rockview prison increases security following dog’s death  By Lori Falce  Every year, police and safety groups warn about the dangers of leaving pets or kids in a car on a hot day.  A local prison learned exactly why.  On July 7, a state Department of Corrections drug dog at Rockview state prison died after overheating.  According to The Weather Channel, the high that day was 86 degrees. Totti, a 2‐year‐old yellow Labrador retriever, was  “accidentally left in a vehicle” during a training.  The DOC released a timeline for the incident. At 12:15 p.m., Totti’s handler stored training items in his vehicle after the  session was over.  At 2:44 p.m., the handler realized Totti was locked in the car, too.  The American Veterinary Medical Association says by that time, the temperature within the car would have been more  than 130 degrees.  “When the handler realized this fact, he and others rushed to the vehicle and began emergency care of the dog,  including hosing him down and carefully cooling him with ice,” the DOC said in a statement.  At 2:58 p.m., Totti was taken to the veterinarian. The dog was conscious at the time, according to the DOC, but did not  survive.  “Everyone involved was incredibly and understandably upset and concerned for the dog,” the department release  stated. “This has been very devastating for everyone involved.”  It has also had an impact on security.  On Wednesday, the day after information on Totti’s death was released, there appeared to be a heightened guard  presence at Rockview campus buildings.  Amy Worden, DOC spokeswoman, confirmed that.  “The extra security is in anticipation of a possible protest over the dog incident,” she said.  10 DOC Secretary John Wetzel initiated an investigation into Totti’s death on Tuesday. Worden said no further comment  could be given on the incident during the active investigation.  They are not the only ones concerned.  “Since we have learned of this dog’s death, we have requested an investigation and have also been contacted by  Rockview investigators who are freely sharing information at this point,” said Centre County District Attorney Stacy  Parks Miller.  The DA’s office has made crimes against animals a priority under Parks Miller’s administration, taking on the  mistreatment and shooting of dogs, theft of snakes and transportation of cattle in dangerously cold temperatures all  with zeal.  “We take all matters where animals are harmed very seriously,” she said.  The DOC has been training drug dogs since 1995. The animals have been trained at the Quehanna boot camp in the  Karthaus area in nearby Clearfield County, but those operations are being relocated to Rockview.     ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     Public Opinion (07/14/2016)  http://www.publicopiniononline.com/story/news/crime/2016/07/13/teen‐convicted‐rape‐wont‐sex‐offender‐ registry/87026412/  Teen convicted of rape won’t be on sex offender registry  By Becky Metrick   CHAMBERSBURG ‐ A Chambersburg teen was convicted Wednesday of rape and child rape, but not ordered to be on the  Pennsylvania Megan's Law Registry.  Tyqwaan Thomas, 17, was convicted weeks ago of armed robbery, and Wednesday added rape of a child and attempted  rape of a child charges to the list. However, Thomas' sentence of between four and eight years in state prison that  applied to the armed robbery charge became the sentence in both cases, all to run concurrently.  Franklin County First Assistant District Attorney Lauren Sulcove told the judge that the agreement came about when the  investigations into Thomas came to light, with the armed robbery case effectively taking him out of the juvenile court  system despite being 16.  Sulcove said Thomas was forthcoming when it came to discussing the rape cases, including that there was a third victim  who prosecutors and investigators could not find.  Sulcove said she believes Thomas has a really serious problem that needs to be addressed by his time in state prison.  However, Sulcove explained that Thomas could not be put on the State Sexual Offender Registry, or the Megan's Law  list, due to a recent Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision that ruled it unconstitutional for juveniles to be on the  registry.  An additional charge of Thomas filming a sexual act between an adult and a juvenile was dropped in the plea agreement. Thomas told the judge about both rapes, one when he was 16 and the other when he was 14 and the girl was 16. In the  earlier case, he said he had told the court he met the girl to sell her marijuana, took her money, then raped her.  In the other case, he said he attacked the girl when he saw her at the park.  Franklin County Judge Angela Krom said that these types of cases are "very hard to determine exactly the correct  outcome."  Sulcove informed her that everyone, including the victims and investigators were in agreement with the plea agreement. Krom noted that Sulcove had to balance what several parties wanted, and believes the plea was balanced in the end.  Thomas is required to undergo sex offender evaluations and treatment, despite not being on the registry. He is  prohibited from having contact with the victims, or unsupervised contact with minor girls.  He owes at $1,000 in fines for the two cases.        ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     County  Pottsville Republican Herald (07/15/2016)  http://republicanherald.com/news/commissioners‐seek‐to‐end‐restriction‐accepting‐prisoners‐1.2066762  11 Commissioners seek to end restriction accepting prisoners  By Mark Gilger Jr.  The Schuylkill County commissioners have asked the state Department of Corrections to end its restriction on the county  prison accepting newly sentenced criminals.  The commissioners sent an email and letter Monday to state DOC Secretary John E. Wetzel asking that the department’s  order be modified or rescinded as soon as possible.  On May 4, the state DOC ordered that the Schuylkill County Prison could no longer take any additional prisoners  sentenced between six months to five years until its average monthly inmate population is at or below its approved  capacity of 277. Inmates serving sentences of two years or more can be sent to state facilities. The DOC said at that time  that it would review its decision in three months.  Since the order was issued, the county has entered into agreements to house inmates at other facilities. On Wednesday,  there were 212 inmates at the county prison and 41 were being housed at other facilities, including George W. Hill  Correctional Facility, Thornton; Centre County Correctional Facility, Bellefonte; and Columbia County Correctional  Facility, Bloomsburg.  It costs $60 to $65 a day per inmate to house inmates at those facilities, which adds up to more than $2,600 a day.  Meanwhile, the commissioners also approved another housing agreement Wednesday with the Berks County Prison,  Leesport, for $60 a day per inmate.  “We have been very fortunate to negotiate contracts below the state average,” commissioners Chairman and prison  board Chairman George F. Halcovage Jr. said. “There’s good communication between all parties involved. There are a lot  of moving parts on this and we continue to move forward.”  The average cost in 2014 — the latest figures available — was $67 a day per inmate, according to the state DOC. The  2014 cost at the Schuylkill County prison was $44.23 a day per inmate.  The letter, signed by Halcovage, said that the state DOC gave the county prison a favorable report following a July 5  inspection focusing on the current housing situation. It also states that the prison had a low of 210 inmates in June and  has not exceeded 223 through July 7. Also, no inmates were triple celled as of July 7.  “By this letter, I respectfully ask that the DOC approve a potential modification of or rescind the order as soon as  possible to permit acceptance of previously sentenced prisoners in the Schuylkill County Prison,” the letter said. “The  county prison board, warden, county administrator, the courts, sheriff’s office, the district attorney’s office, adult  probation and the public defenders’ office worked very hard and in concert to get the inmate population down to  acceptable numbers. Please provide whatever relief you feel appropriate as soon as possible.”     ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     National Corrections     Columbus Dispatch (07/13/2016)  http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/editorials/2016/07/13/1‐shed‐more‐light‐on‐juvenile‐justice.html  By the Editorial Board  Ohio’s juvenile‐justice system often operates in the dark. Statewide data is publicly available on fewer than 5,000 of the  95,000 juvenile cases reported by local courts. This obviously hampers accountability, leaving experts and taxpayers at a  loss to determine which efforts are successful and cost‐effective at turning around troubled youngsters.  What offenses do youths across the state commit and what are the trends? We don’t know. The data that is available is  sketchy and focuses mostly on the small percentage of young people who commit felonies rather than those who more  typically commit minor crimes or status offenses such as violating curfew or underage drinking.  What happens to most kids when they go to court? Again, answers are fuzzy. No comprehensive statewide data exists  on how courts handle kids, making it hard to track the success or failure of youth offenders through incarceration or  treatment. Without such data, it’s impossible to discern which court interventions work to prevent kids from  reoffending — or graduating to the adult prison system.  “We’re spending millions of dollars — and we don’t even know how many million — on juvenile justice without knowing  if we’re getting what we’re paying for,” said Erin Davies, executive director of the Juvenile Justice Coalition. “… For  example, we do not know how many youth are on probation or what programs in various courts across the state use to  respond to youth.”  12 The coalition last year contacted juvenile courts in all 88 counties. It found that fewer than half have a publicly available  report on their cases — despite a state law that requires the filing of an annual report with county commissioners by  each June.  This suggests Ohio is basing policy on hunches, not hard data. And the consequences are costly. If programs fail to work  on lower‐level delinquents, they might graduate into the state’s kiddie prisons, where in 2015 it cost $205,000 to  incarcerate one youth for a single year.  The scant data available do show “disturbing trends,” the coalition said. Black youths make up 18 percent of the state’s  youth population, but they are 51 percent of youths declared delinquent of felonies, 61 percent of the youths in Ohio’s  juvenile prisons and 87 percent of youths bound‐over to be tried in the adult court system, where they face harsher and  longer punishments.  This patchy data also means that Ohio lacks good data on kids in justice system who are LGBTQ, disabled or from  immigrant families, the coalition points out.  The coalition has long advocated for the creation of a statewide data‐collection system for the juvenile justice system.  Its newest study confirms the helter‐skelter data collection among Ohio’s county courts and makes recommendations:  Create a uniform data form for all juvenile courts and assign a centralized entity to assemble the data.  To do this, someone at the state level should be made the point person to ensure compliance. Also, courts will need  help and the counties will need to be schooled in the importance of informing their communities. Franklin County, for  instance, does a great job collecting and analyzing data to shape policies and programs. Yet, inexplicably, the court last  year told the coalition that it had no report. It does: It’s a single page, which complies with state law.  Courts should be required to post detailed, standardized data online. Then they should use it to save dollars and  improve lives.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     Vox (07/13/2016)  http://www.vox.com/2016/7/13/12155708/private‐prisons‐shane‐bauer  What you see when you go undercover at a private prison for 4 months  By German Lopez  When Shane Bauer packed his bags, he didn’t know what to expect. He wasn’t headed to a far‐off country. He wasn’t  going to a cabin or a beach. Bauer was off to work for the next four months at a private prison in Louisiana: the Winn  Correctional Center in Winnfield.  Bauer’s experience, documented in a long piece for Mother Jones this month, exposes a prison in disarray. The inmates  are violent, with stabbings a regular occurrence. The guards are demoralized — too outnumbered, understaffed, and  underpaid to create a genuinely safe environment. The facility regularly experiences all kinds of other issues, from failing  to provide adequate medical care to inappropriate sexual relationships between guards and inmates.  And the company that formerly owned the prison, Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), offered little reassurance  in answering the more than 150 questions Bauer sent them in a lengthy back and forth through email.  It was a system so chaotic and broken that it began to creep into Bauer’s mind. The longer he spent in the prison, he  said, the more he began to act and feel like a guard and less like a journalist. He felt more aggressive, finding himself  overbearingly asserting his authority while at the prison and even hoping for a fight while shooting pool at the local bar. “It really made me realize that perhaps all of us are shaped much more by our situation than we realize,” Bauer recently  told me in an interview. “When I’m a journalist and a husband and friend and whatever in the San Francisco Bay Area,  it’s a very different context than when I’m a prison guard in Louisiana. It was impossible for me to be the same person in  those two situations.”  Bauer’s piece is really worth reading in full. But to get more details about his life as a private prison guard in early 2015, I  reached out to him by phone. What follows is our conversation, edited for length and clarity.  German Lopez: If you had to pull out one story or one example to show how screwed up this facility was, what would  you go to?  Shane Bauer: It’s hard to pick one, honestly. There are different ones that show different aspects of the result or the  consequences of the pressure to cut costs.  One thing that comes to mind is when I saw these prisoners stabbing each other in front of me. This is something that  happens in all kinds of prisons, of course, not just private prisons. But it was something that happened very frequently at  13 Winn — more frequently than in other prisons. That had to do in part with the lack of security staff, their inability to do  the security checks that they were supposed to do.  Another case comes to mind. A man jumps over two fences in the middle of the day in view of guard towers, but nobody  saw his escape because they removed the guards from the guard towers years ago to cut costs.  I also think of a man, Robert Scott, who had no legs and fingers. He lost them to gangrene. He had gone to the doctor  many times over a period of months, [which] I know from the medical records, complaining of intense pain in his legs,  his feet leaking pus [and] turning black. And he would be basically sent back with some Motrin. Sometimes they  suggested he was faking it. And he was trying to go to the hospital, but he couldn’t go to the hospital — they wouldn’t  transfer him. So he had his legs amputated.  I saw this kind of thing over and over again with prisoners with medical conditions trying to get to the hospital. I learned  later that the company has to bear the cost [of the hospital]. So it’s a major expense to take a prisoner who you’re  making $34 a day to a hospital and [get] some major operation.  GL: That seems to be the recurring theme in this story: the company trying to save as much money as possible to  maximize its profits. While it’s true that governments have a similar incentive to hold down prison costs, the for‐profit  incentive makes that more explicit. Do you think that’s the big takeaway from this story?  SB: Yeah, I do. I saw the result of these cost‐cutting measures everywhere. I mean, we were making $9 an hour as  guards. [Starting pay for public prison guards in Louisiana was $12.50 an hour.]  One of the first red flags for me is before I got there: I was doing interviews, and the head of HR told me that there was  high unemployment in this town — a town where the average income is $25,000 a year. Despite the high  unemployment, they were having a hard time hiring out staff. People didn’t want to work there even though they were  desperate for work.  The people who did work there were kind of the most desperate. There were single moms, kids right out of high school,  guys [with] a history in the military or prisons in general and had no other option. When you have people meant to  provide security being paid so poorly, it leads to really low morale. And I had guards say to me, “I am nothing but a body  for this company.” They would basically show up for work, do the 12 hours, do as little as they had to do, stay out of  prisoners’ way to avoid problems.  GL: Although the story goes into problems with the prison itself, it also seems like the prison guards are a big part of this  broken machine.  SB: Yeah.  When I went into this project, I didn’t expect that I would write about guards. The intention wasn’t to write a story  about what it’s like to be a prison guard. I became a guard because that was the only way to get inside.  But something that really surprised me was how thin the line was between the guards and the prisoners in this situation.  They’re mostly from [a] similar economic class. There was a guard I met who had seven years in prison himself. There  were guards who knew prisoners from their childhood.  There’s inevitably a lot of tension and conflict between guards and prisoners, but there was also a sense of camaraderie.  Guards and prisoners would bond over their disdain for the company; that was kind of universal. There was this sense  that we’re all trapped in this system. Prisoners would say to us, “We know you can’t change this,” when they were  frustrated they can’t get to their classes, because they were canceled. [Classes and work programs were cut and  canceled regularly, largely due to staffing vacancies.]  But we would still be locked in conflict. As the floor officer, I was the first point of contact for the prisoners. So when  they’re frustrated with our system, I’m the one they came to.  So we were aware we were trapped in this larger puzzle, but we would still enact our roles that were oftentimes at odds. GL: It was surprising how frank inmates were with the guards, who are supposed to have some sort of authority and  power. But some of the inmates are just not afraid to tell off guards. The frankness of how the inmates treated the  guards like a joke seems striking and telling of the conditions at the prison.  SB: I definitely did not have sense from the prisoners that they were intimidated by the guards. There were certain ways  we had power over them, but we were always vastly outnumbered, and everybody knew that. It was clear that the  guards had to be careful with how they interacted with the prisoners, not the other way around. It was a very complex  web of power, which everyone is trying to navigate, and just trying to make it. But there’s not really anybody who’s  clearly on top.  GL: Those moments in which you became more of a prison guard and forgot you were a journalist really stuck out to me.  You hear those kinds of accounts from police and correction guards, in which they get absorbed into the culture. Some  14 of the guards you talked to in the story mentioned the same thing — how they were worried about losing sight of these  inmates as people. How much did that trouble you personally as you went into this?  SB: I was somewhat aware that might happen, but I had no idea the degree to which I would change.  As it started happening, it was a bizarre dynamic, because I was constantly trying to step back and write about what was  happening — mostly about how I was seeing the prison but also what was happening with myself. So I knew it was  happening, but I couldn’t stop it. I didn’t want to get into this mode of being an overbearing guard.  It really made me realize that perhaps all of us are shaped much more by our situation than we realize. When I’m a  journalist and a husband and friend and whatever in the San Francisco Bay Area, it’s a very different context than when  I’m a prison guard in Louisiana. It was impossible for me to be the same person in those two situations.  Toward the end of those four months, I ended up leaving suddenly — not by my own choice. But I was really thinking  about pulling out, mostly because of how the job was affecting me, how I saw I was changing. I had a question: At what  point is this going to be irreversible, where some aspects of this stick with me? That was scary to me.  GL: Reading your story reminded me of an investigation I did into an Ohio private prison, also owned by CCA, back when  I lived in the state. I didn’t go undercover as a guard for four months, but I corresponded with inmates and verified  details with public records requests after the state sold the Lake Erie Correctional Institution — the first time a state did  that — to CCA. I found many of the same problems you did: high levels of violence and really unsanitary conditions.  But one thing that surprised me after I published that article is the messages I got from public prison officials and guards  afterward in which they told me something along the lines of, “Yeah, this is bad, but trust us when we say public prisons  are bad, too.” And there are notoriously bad public prisons like Rikers Island in New York City and Pelican Bay State  Prison in California. So I’m curious if there’s anything you pulled from your investigation that demonstrated private  prisons are worse.  SB: To me, the point of the story is not to say that private prisons are worse than public prisons. I think there’s a unique  set of issues particular to private prisons, but like you said, Pelican Bay — I’ve written about Pelican Bay, I’ve been there.  There are people in solitary confinement for decades there. That’s not something you find in private prisons as a whole. But the unique issues in private prisons have to do with the for‐profit incentive. There are medical issues across the  prison system, but they seem to be extremely acute in private prisons. There are some states in which CCA actually  writes into its contract that it won’t accept prisoners with serious medical or mental health issues, because of the cost.  And the staffing — there are also staffing issues across the prison system, but it does seem particularly acute in private  prisons. And that was definitely true at Winn.  Talking to dozens of prisoners about their experiences in other prisons while I was there, they would regularly tell me  that Winn was more chaotic, had less structure, fewer programs, fewer work options — that it was just thinner than  everywhere else.  There was also a time when the state took over because the prison had become so chaotic — there were multiple  stabbings in a week. The state stepped in, and the prisoners reacted to these guards from Angola [Louisiana State  Penitentiary] and other state‐run prisons completely differently. [Inmates] kind of treated us like we were a joke but  listened to these guys without any issue.  I even talked to a warden from another prison who came in and was observing, and he said to me, “This place is a joke.”  I asked him about training in his prison, which offers 90 days of training and had fitness incentives and things like that. At  Winn, we went through four weeks [of training]. He was astonished by that.  At state‐run prisons, like Pelican Bay, they have issues that are in some ways opposite to what you have at Winn: hyper‐ control, where people are potentially removed from all human interaction. And at Winn, you had people living on top of  each other, and a really chaotic environment.  GL: I know there is some 2001 data from the Department of Justice that shows that private prisons had far more  reported incidents of violence. But it doesn’t seem like there is much research being done on this, perhaps because  private prisons are notoriously more closed off to public access.  SB: It’s interesting that the Department of Justice hasn’t done a study in quite a long time, and I’m not sure why. Their  data is really useful for this kind of thing. They used to study private prisons in particular and compare them to public  prisons using data from tens or dozens of prisons.  But as far as reporting, we see private prisons come up in the news when there’s a riot. Like in Idaho, there was a  [private] prison shut down some years ago.  We hear about them at these times, but it is really hard to report on these prisons. It’s hard to get data on them.  15 You’ve probably experienced this. It depends on the state, since some states are more cooperative [with public record  requests]. But in my experience, there are some states where you can wait months or you just don’t get anything unless  you sue.  GL: Yeah. Reporting the story I mentioned earlier in Ohio, the biggest waiting period was the public record requests. I  had all these letters from inmates; then I just had to wait for months to get my public record requests filled out.  SB: I did get data from the Department of Corrections in Louisiana that was indicative about what was going on at Winn.  For example, in the first four months of 2015, while I was there, there were nearly 200 weapons found at Winn. That is  23 times more than the numbers that were reported from Angola, a maximum‐security prison in Louisiana. There were  seven times more chemical agents, like pepper spray and tear gas, used at Winn than Angola.  One thing that was interesting was that during a two‐month period, I was recording when there was a stabbing that I  either witnessed or a warden or supervisor reported it to us. I recorded 12 stabbings in this two‐month period. And I  looked through the numbers for the Department of Corrections that CCA reported — they reported five stabbings in a  10‐month period. That would suggest they were not reporting all of this. If I hadn’t been working within inside the  prison, I could have never known how violent this place was.  GL: Very often in the story, a prison guard, inmate, or you report something bad that happened at the prison, and then  CCA flatly denies it. It happens consistently. It kind of chips away at CCA’s credibility the further you get into the story,  because it’s hard to believe all the denials. Reporting this out, did you get that feeling?  SB: It was remarkable to me, the things that they denied.  But it was important for me to get their side of the story. I sent them more than 150 questions. But a lot of our back and  forth during that time, they wouldn’t actually speak to me. I wanted to interview them in person. But this was all  through email. They would word their answers to comment about my motives, and that I shouldn’t have been reporting  this out while I worked there, and that I wasn’t doing my job the way I was supposed to — that kind of thing.  L: Approaching this story as a journalist, how did you get this idea, how did you decide you wanted to do it, and how did  you prepare it?  SB: The idea came kind of randomly in conversations with a colleague one day. I just thought, “I’ll put in applications for  CCA and GEO [the other major private prison company],” on kind of a whim, honestly. I didn’t really think anything was  going to come of it. But I thought, “Why not give this a shot?” So I just went on their websites and filled out applications  with my real name and personal information.  When I started getting calls a couple weeks later, that’s when it really hit me. I started talking to people in interviews,  and the interviews were so basic. It really had nothing to do with prisons. They were generic job interviews about how I  deal with conflict and that kind of thing. It was really striking to me how easy it was to get a job — and I was in a position  of choosing where I could go.  So we switched into this mode, with my editors, of preparing, having our lawyers really look at everything, making sure  we were doing everything right, not getting ourselves in any trouble, and thinking about things like what would happen  if I got injured. We tried to work through those questions in the short time frame we had.  But at some level, there was no way to really prepare for it. I just moved there, and I was jumping into a fairly unknown  situation.  GL: So even the application process was telling. I think one person in the story said something along like, “They accept  anyone with a heartbeat and a driver’s license.”  SB: Yeah. “If you come here and you breathing and you got a valid driver's license and you willing to work, then we’re  willing to hire you."  GL: Yeah. So before you’re really getting into this story, some red flags pop up.  Did you have any idea how long this would last — that it would take four months?  SB: No. I had no idea. It was open‐ended. The idea was that if I get inside, then I stay there for as long as I need to see  through a full story.  After I had been in training for just a couple days, it was really a mixture of feelings. I was nervous still about being found  out, I was really excited that I was actually inside, and I was shocked at how much material I was getting. Every day, I was  getting stuff that would’ve been so difficult to get, and each little tidbit would have been a story that I would pursue for  weeks. So I felt like if this all unravels after two or three days, I’ll be able to write a magazine article about this already.  In that way, it felt like this was all icing on the cake after the first week. But it just kept going and going and going.  GL: Besides your story, are there any other books or articles you would recommend to people to get deeper into the  issue of prison privatization?  16 SB: There was one book: Punishment for Sale by Donna Salman and Paul Leighton. I read it going down there. That gave  me a good sense of the history of the industry side of private prisons. That was really interesting. There was also a good  story that the Nation recently published, getting into the federal contracts around private prisons. That was also more  on the business side of things.

sex‐charges  Michigan courthouse shooter faced life in prison on kidnapping, sex charges  By Robert Allen  ST. JOSEPH, Mich. — A jail inmate who fatally shot two bailiffs and injured two more people at a Michigan courthouse  before he was killed in an escape attempt Monday faced sexual assault and kidnapping charges carrying up to life in  prison, according to state records.  Larry Darnell Gordon, 44, of Coloma, Mich., was charged in April with armed first‐degree criminal sexual conduct, first‐ degree criminal sexual conduct during a felony, felony kidnapping, felony assault with a dangerous weapon and  misdemeanor aggravated domestic violence, according to Michigan State Police records.  At about 2:15 p.m. Monday, Gordon took a gun from an officer who was escorting him to a court hearing at Berrien  County Courthouse in St. Joseph, shot bailiffs Joseph Zangaro, 61, and Ronald Kienzle, 63, and tried to take hostages  before he was killed, according to a news release from Berrien County Sheriff L. Paul Bailey. Sheriff’s deputy James  Atterberry Jr., 41, and a civilian were injured during the incident.  Gordon’s ex‐wife, Jessica Gordon, 39, said Larry Gordon did it because he feared he would never be released and  wanted to see his 6‐year‐old daughter.  “Larry was not a violent person,” she said Monday at the home they shared. “The only thing I can think of is that he was  completely terrified, and people do things out of character when they’re scared. With all my heart I believe he was  trying to get home to see Cheyenne (his daughter).”  Larry Gordon was still living with his family in Coloma after the divorce was finalized in February. Jessica Gordon said he  was living there while finding a place to live. A trailer marked “Auto Spa Mobile Detailing” was parked in the driveway on  Monday, and Jessica Gordon said her ex‐husband used it to run his business.  The criminal‐sexual conduct and kidnapping charges Larry Gordon faced could have resulted in sentences of up to life in  prison on conviction, according to the Michigan Penal Code. The circumstances of the allegations, resulting from an  incident involving Coloma Township Police, weren’t immediately available Monday.  Jessica Gordon said she spoke with Larry Gordon by phone daily, but he didn’t give any previous indications he planned  to break out.  “He probably found out how much time he could potentially be looking at and wanted to get out to see us,” she said.  “He thought he would die in prison.”  Jessica Gordon declined to comment on the April charges Monday but said she believes he’s innocent of at least some of  them. She said she still loves him and that Tuesday would have been their 10‐year wedding anniversary. She said they  had been a couple for 19 years, and Cheyenne turns 7 on Saturday.  She said he didn’t have any specific problems with law enforcement but had been in legal trouble before. State records  indicate Larry Gordon pleaded guilty in September 2013 to a second‐offense misdemeanor driving while intoxicated or  impaired and to felony theft from a building. In 1998, he pleaded guilty to felony fleeing a police officer and  misdemeanor operating while intoxicated, and in 1992 he was charged with felony unarmed robbery but took a plea  deal for a misdemeanor, according to state records.

prison/article_98a2b305‐e396‐5626‐b078‐f7cab5582e43.html  Report: Number of inmates could exceed state’s current prison capacity in a decade  By Andrew Oxford  The New Mexican  17 The number of Americans behind bars is shrinking, but a new report says New Mexico’s prison population will continue  to grow and at a faster rate than researchers previously anticipated.  A new forecast by the New Mexico Sentencing Commission said the state’s inmate population will rise from 7,518 in  fiscal year 2016 to 7,663 by fiscal year 2018. In a decade, the commission expects the state’s prison population to swell  to include 8,457 inmates.  New Mexico is not the only state with a growing prison population, according to federal data. But the consistent growth  of the state’s inmate population runs counter to the national trend at a time of bipartisan interest in criminal justice  reform.  “It definitely bucks against the trend,” said Ashley Nellis, senior research analyst at The Sentencing Project, a  Washington, D.C.‐based nonprofit advocating for criminal justice reform.  Faced with the rising costs of prisons and budgetary pressures, many states are embracing alternatives to incarceration,  such as strong probation programs and treatment initiatives, she said.  And some states are scrapping three‐strikes laws and rewriting other statutes that increase sentences for repeat  offenders, according to Nellis.  “By and large, the habitual offender laws have been shown to be completely ineffective for public safety,” she said. “And  it’s too costly to incarcerate at the rate we do.”  In New Mexico, however, tough‐on‐crime policies dominated this year’s legislative session, with some Republicans  pushing stronger sentences, particularly for repeat offenders and drunken drivers.  The focus on stiffer sentences followed the killing of two on‐duty police officers in Central New Mexico in separate  incidents during 2015 and the fatal shooting of a young child during an episode of road rage in Albuquerque — all cases  that shocked the state’s collective consciousness.  Some legislators have demonstrated a willingness to cross party lines for criminal justice reform, but as Sen. Lisa  Torraco, R‐Albuquerque, said, “It was an election year.” She helped lead a panel of lawmakers that examined measures  to bring greater consistency to criminal penalties and de‐emphasize prison sentences for nonviolent offenders but said  politics got in the way of reform during this year’s session.  Describing the projected increase in New Mexico’s prison population as tragic, the senator said violent, repeat offenders  should face stiff penalties but nonviolent offenders often spend too much time behind bars — away from family and out  of work. She has pushed legislation to help transition inmates from prison into housing and jobs.  The Corrections Department has boosted the number of staff in a division formed to curb recidivism and has increased  its capacity for transitional living, but Torraco, a former prosecutor and now a defense attorney, said, criminal justice  reform is unlikely to gain traction under Gov. Susana Martinez, a former district attorney.  “One of our problems is the governor and the Legislature are not like‐minded in their thinking on criminal justice  reform,” she said. “If we do something, it will probably be under the next administration.”  The steady increase in New Mexico’s prison population and reform efforts in other states come amid a long‐term decline  in violent crime across the country, said Andrew Barbee, research manager at the Council of State Governments Justice  Center, a nonpartisan organization that provides research and consulting services to lawmakers.  Barbee says that changes in the prison populations of other states have not had measurable effects on crime rates.  “If the reform efforts in Texas and North Carolina were going to lead to blood in the streets, why hasn’t that happened?”  he said, referring to two historically conservative states where legislators have recently sought to reduce prison  populations.  Sen. Richard C. Martinez, D‐Española, co‐chairman of the Legislature’s Courts, Corrections and Justice Committee, said  lawmakers will have to figure out how they will pay for a prison system whose population is expected to swell as its  facilities age.  If the state’s prison population grows over the next decade as forecast in the Sentencing Commission’s report, it will  exceed the Corrections Department’s  current capacity. And Martinez said some aging facilities may need to be replaced.  “It’s not money that we have so I don’t know where we’re going to get it,” he said.  He called for more drug and mental health treatment options. “We’re not doing a darn thing other than to throw these  people in prison,” he said. “We talk about it, but I don’t see it.”  Contributing to the upward trend in New Mexico’s prison population is what the Sentencing Commission’s new report  describes as a “continuing, significant increase” in the number of women locked up in state correctional facilities.  18 Women constitute approximately 10 percent of New Mexico’s total inmate population, according to the report, while  making up 7.3 percent of the prisoners in state lockups across the country.  About 38 percent of women confined in the state were convicted of a violent offense, according to the report.  The number of women newly locked up for what are classified as serious violent offenses has more than doubled since  2011, although women were more commonly sent to state prisons during fiscal year 2015 for drug and property crimes. County jails mirror the statewide trend, with the percentage of women locked up in local detention centers growing  from 12.9 in 2010 to 17.2 in 2015, according to the report.  The growing number of prisoners is not entirely due to new crimes and new cases, however. In 2014, the report notes,  the New Mexico Corrections Department changed its policies on shaving good time off of sentences — what are known  as “earned meritorious deductions.” The criteria for receiving good time is now more restrictive and emphasizes  participation in prison programs, the Sentencing Commission found.  With inmates less likely to receive good time, prisoners’ time behind bars will likely increase, according to the report.  The Sentencing Commission’s report notes its forecasts for the coming decade are based on current laws and  Corrections Department policies, which could change and affect the prison system’s population.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐     Corrections.com 07/13/2106)  http://wpri.com/2016/07/12/sheriffs‐dept‐jail‐not‐the‐best‐place‐for‐pokemon/  Sheriff’s Dept: Jail not the best place for Pokemon  By Nancy Krause  NORTH DARTMOUTH, Mass. (WPRI) — Trainers hunting for different Pokemon characters have been warned: Stay away  from the Bristol County House of Corrections in North Dartmouth.   The Bristol County Sheriff’s Department on its Facebook page told players under no circumstances will they be admitted  to catch Pokemon Go critters, writing:   "Dear Pokémon Go: Right outside the jail fence is not the best place for a Pokemon. Sincerely, the Bristol County  Sheriff’s Department. PS: Reminder to the public, this is a secure facility and no one will be admitted to catch Pokemon.  No one.  That’s bad news for players, since a later post revealed Pikachu has been spotted in an outdoor staff break area at the  facility.  The sheriff’s department is one of the latest law enforcement agency commenting on the app – which has taken the  world by storm in just a matter of days.  The Cranston Police Department also sent out notice on its Facebook page Tuesday, urging residents not to game while  driving and to respect private property.     ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐        Amy Worden   Press Secretary  Department of Corrections  1920 Technology Parkway   Mechanicsburg, PA  17050  Phone: 717‐728‐4026  www.cor.pa.gov     19 Kristen M. Simkins From: Sent: To: Subject: Cynthia Brown <cynthia=apbweb.com@mail67.atl31.mcdlv.net> on behalf of Cynthia Brown <cynthia@apbweb.com> Friday, July 15, 2016 12:21 PM Richard C. Smith Powerful, positive story on Dallas cops Hi Richard! Every law enforcement agency in the country has a local newspaper with hopefully a few reporters still left on the staff. This feature piece, written by Manny Fernandez, printed in this week's New York Times, is a dramatic example of the powerful, positive message that can result when you reach out to a reporter you think has the empathy and writing skills to tell your story. Figure out who that is, call them up and say you have chosen them for exclusive access to officers like these Dallas cops. We feel it's best to work with reporters in the print media as opposed to broadcast or digital. If it's in print, it's permanent. Lots of other things can develop from a story like this because the newspaper or magazine is passed around and talked about. Remember, reporters are in the story telling business and no one has better stories than you folks. Dallas Police Are Used to Recovering From Being in Harm’s Way By MANNY FERNANDEZJULY 13, 2016 The New York Times 1 Officers Hanna Velazquez and her husband, Adrian Velazquez, of the Dallas police, attended a vigil on Monday near City Hall. Credit David Ryder for The New York Times DALLAS — The officer was standing in a hotel cafe here when he was asked — as he no doubt had been asked dozens of times since Thursday — how he was doing. He shook his head. “Second time in 13 months,” he said. The officer was talking about what happened last year in Dallas. A disturbed man had a brazen shootout with the Dallas Police Department on June 13, 2015, driving an armored van to Police Headquarters, ramming a patrol car and opening fire on officers while poking his rifle through the van’s gun portholes. That is right: Fifty-five weeks before a lone gunman attacked police officers on Thursday in downtown Dallas, another lone gunman attacked some of those same police officers last year at the edge of downtown Dallas. Both gunmen used Soviet-style rifles. Both were mobile and created confusion about whether there were multiple gunmen. Both attacks ended in standoffs. Both gunmen were killed by the police. Both assaults spread panic in parts of the city, caused 2 evacuations and brought a level of warlike violence to the center of the country’s ninth-largest city. One planted homemade explosive devices, but the other may have just threatened to plant them. The first attack began one mile from the second. The first gunman, James Boulware, 35, was white. The second, Micah Johnson, 25, was black. Mr. Boulware, who blamed the police after he lost full custody of his son after his arrest in 2013, fired nearly 200 rounds but did not kill or injure any officers. Mr. Johnson, driven by his hatred of white officers, fired perhaps just as many rounds but killed five officers and wounded nine.

House/Getty Images But there is more: Rewind the clock a few additional months from June 2015, to October 2014 during the Ebola crisis. Dallas was the site of the first three cases of Ebola confirmed in the United States. The Dallas police fought that war, too, helping to calm the first American city to contend with a widespread Ebola public-health emergency. Officers stood guard outside apartments suspected of being contaminated, the very places many residents wanted to get far from. That line that is repeated 3 often these days — that the police run toward danger as the public runs away from it — applies even when the danger is invisible. It is not just the horror of last Thursday. Not many police forces have been through what the one in Dallas has been through in so brief a time. That officer in the cafe came under fire last year from Mr. Boulware, just as he came under fire on Thursday from Mr. Johnson, and yet there he was the other day, in uniform and on the job. When people ask how Dallas can recover from the past catastrophic week, some of the answer lies in what officers have already been through. “It’s kind of like diamonds,” said Detective Arturo Martinez, a friend of Officer Patrick Zamarripa, one of the five officers killed last week. “The more pressure you get, the stronger you get, the more beautiful you are. No matter how much pressure you put on us, we’re just going to get better.” Detective Martinez, 29, trained in the police academy in 2009 and 2010 with Officer Zamarripa, 32, a Navy veteran who served in Iraq. Detective Martinez said his friend “was always down to go chase the bad guy,” one of the type of officers their peers call “dope chasers.” Photo 4 “No matter how much pressure you put on us, we’re just going to get better,” said Detective Arturo Martinez of the Dallas Police Department. Credit Brandon Thibodeaux for The New York Times He added: “It’s proactive policing. They like to go out and seek the drug dealer. He was a protector.” Detective Martinez attended a lunch the day after the shooting at the Dallas offices of the National Latino Law Enforcement Organization that was organized as a way for officers to get together, talk and decompress. He was out of uniform, in a crisp blue shirt and cowboy boots. It had been only a few hours since he left his friend’s bedside at the hospital. He had changed shirts. He had walked into the hospital room and stood over the body of his friend, angry, sad, in disbelief. “I took my shirt off and I cleaned his face off,” Detective Martinez said. “I didn’t like all the blood on his face. I didn’t want to see him like that.” On Monday night, Detective Martinez was part of the sea of blue at a candlelight vigil outside City Hall. Everyone’s hands were sticky by the end of the event from the dripping wax. Another officer, Officer Jorge Barrientos, walked up to the detective. They embraced. Photo 5 Hazmat crews removed material from the Dallas apartment of an Ebola patient in October 2014. Credit Cooper Neill for The New York Times Officer Barrientos’s left hand was wrapped in a bandage. He is one of the wounded. Officer Barrientos was with Officer Zamarripa and other officers who had been spread out across the intersection of Main and Lamar Streets before the gunfire rang out. Officer Barrientos, a four-year veteran of the department, chose his words carefully and slowly. “I took a round to the hand and I took some shrapnel to the chest,” he said. He was about 10 feet from Officer Zamarripa when shots rang out. “We were taking fire,” Officer Barrientos said. “I saw my buddies go down and I did my best to try and save them and evacuate them from the scene so that they could have a chance of surviving.” He put pressure on Officer Zamarripa’s wounds. But he used only one hand, he said. “I’m helping Zamarripa but at the same time, I have my gun out on the other hand, trying to help make sure that we can stop the threat,” he said. In the chaos of the moment, Officer Barrientos was a lot like his city. 6 Wounded. But fighting.

He came back after that (142) and began to argue with me and asked me so why did I get written up for being in there and hes not? I said I don?t know I didn?t write you up when you went.

Inmate Mockensturm stated that he just received court paperwork on 3 7/6. I called the Bedford County Court Administration Of?ce so that Inmate Mockensturm could postpone the _3 hearing, due to not receiving the appropriate documents in a timely manner. The staff person from Bedford Co. Court Administration instructed us to call the Centre County Prothonatary Of?ce to see about postponing the hearing. She explained to us that a Bedford County Judge was presiding over the case due to the Centre County DA being listed as a defendant in this civil law suit. - The staff person at the Centre County Prothonotary stated that they sent the mail on 6/20, but the envelope that Inmate Mockensturm had in his possession was postmarked 7/6. Inmate Mockensturm became frustrated i and said that he just wouldn?t go to court tomorrow, and then tell the judge that ?we? refused to transport him. He also made several statements about staff not doing their job here, and he would be seeing us in court too. After allowing him to vent for several minutes, he returned to his housing unit without further incident. ;1 About 40 minutes later, I went to the A3 housing unit to speak with another inmate. While in there Inmate Mockensturm requested a copy of his incoming mail log for court tomorrow. I spoke with Lt. Fisher to clarify what our procedure was for his request. Lt.

Re: Supervisory Rounds Reply to Group Reply to Sender Jul 11, 2016 2:37 PM Andrew Fee Hi, It is a bit worn, but the saying: 'expect the unexpected', is a good foundation for supervisory inspection. Generally, my supervisors look for compliance with jail rules, cleanliness of the housing units, cleanliness of the cells, repair items, odors, any type of damage to the facility (outside of normal wear and tear) and to listen to the housing officers concerns. Occasionally, they will address an inmate issue directly but typically, the housing unit officer is the 'go to' person 2 for questions and requests (we also have a kiosk system). Also, what I do is ask the housing unit officer if I can enter the housing unit (I want the inmates to see and hear that type of control by the housing officer). As for the rounds or tours, at least every thirty minutes but our goal is every 15 minutes (This may not apply to special housing issues: suicidal etc.).In addition, we require the housing unit officer to get from behind the duty station and walk around and observe the inmates, behaviors etc. This actually works well, as the inmates now know, we are up and about.

I believe if you look at Act 195, it shows that anyone that is being called in for an investigation should be told at least a little bit about what the investigation is about. How are they to defend themselves if they have no clue what is going on. Talk to you Wednesday. On Jul 11, 2016 12:30 PM, "Richard C.

Gene knows that we just added changes to the PRIDE and CHOICES curriculum. You can see these changes in the Attached Power Point. We have been working with Penn State and have two (2) program specialists that have been scheduled to come in October 2016 to shadow Caitlynn Neff and Danielle Minarchick .    The result of the Shadowing and Curriculum Review will be a recommendation to make changes to the curriculum or to totally change the programs entirely.

We offer secured TV screens with added value solutions (integrated software and electronic card to be remotely managed by the prison guard), dedicated to justice facilities with services/applications. Functionalities and services offered by our solution are here attached. French prisons (12 000 cells) have our solution to avoid to enter in the cells and save time to the prison guards but also to open/close channel programs in real time and control what the inmates watch. With our solutions/services, you can also have internal channels : -Food Service / Meal ordering / Education / Entertainment / Supporting the rehabilitation process. You can save human resources, optimizing resources and selling/offering new services, but the most important you remotely control and manage your TV screens. I have trusted US Partners that could deliver to you our TV screens (19'' and 22'') with our solution; I will be pleased to give you their contact details.

Smith LE Veterans Speak Out on Dallas Horror Change LE Veterans Speak Out on Dallas Horror Using Video to Reach the Members Ed Mullins, president of the Sergeants Union in New York City, sent this videotaped message about the incident in Dallas to his members. Video messages are becoming a popular way to get the message out to the members who can easily read and watch the message on their phones. 1 Verbal attacks led to five dead, six injured by George Hofstetter On July 7, 2016, the verbal attacks on police in America that began two years ago led to the brutal assassination of five Dallas police officers and the attempted assassination of six more. The Dallas shootings are in part the tragic consequences of vitriol from an irresponsible few who seek to demonize all cops. A common tactic when waging war is to dehumanize "the enemy" because to dehumanize the enemy makes it easier to kill them. What we have witnessed during the past two years, since Ferguson, Missouri, is an unrelenting verbal propaganda war against law enforcement from a handful of elected officials, professional agitators, and others, amplified by the editorial and opinion pages of leading national newspapers and broadcast media. Sadly, even a Supreme Court Justice entered the mix with her own hyperbolic statement about law enforcement. In this narrative, all police officers are racists, and because of either expressed or subconscious biases, harass and oppress minorities. Law enforcement officers are not people doing a job and protecting the community, but instead, they are automatons cut from the same oppressing cloth. Launched in Ferguson, Missouri with the "hands up, don't shoot" invention, suggesting a police officer gunned down a surrendering African American man, this narrative has gripped the nation over the past two years. It doesn't matter that this claim was proven false 18 months later during an exhaustive investigation by the United States Department of Justice - the propaganda war had its slogan. The verbal assault on law enforcement had already reached full throttle even before the facts of that report were released, and what actually occurred became incidental to the false narrative of "police violence" spun by politicians, activists and the news media. 2 The notion of police as an occupying force which "routinely targets" minorities was proffered by United States Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor who penned a written assault on law enforcement claiming that "for generations black and brown parents" have been forced to instruct their children how to act around police, "all out of fear of how an officer with a gun will react to them." Per Justice Sotomayor, the Supreme Court's ruling upholding a search encouraged law enforcement to harass minorities. The nadir of this police dehumanization was reached just before the Dallas police assassinations. Hours after the police shooting in St Paul, MN, and before an investigation had scarcely begun, Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton made the preposterous and baseless claim that Philando Castille would not have been killed if he were white. The New York Times editorial board thundered the shootings in St Paul and Baton Rouge were part of a "gruesome loop of episodes of law enforcement gone amok." In the wake of this continued dehumanization and demonization of police officers, it's a small step to move from verbal attacks to seeing on video an execution of a police officer in Dallas - when an assassin shot an officer multiple times from behind, then walked up and fired the coup de grace into the fallen officer's head. This lawlessness and brutality is the natural outcome of the rhetoric labeling police officers as an enemy to be hated, as was chanted by some protesters, "Pigs in a blanket, fry them like bacon." Those who protest the loudest to "stop the violence" should look inward, as well as outward. Words have consequences. Calls to "lower tensions" when coupled with harsh, divisive rhetoric that incites anger in people against police in general divides communities and, as we witnessed in Dallas, have tragic, deadly consequences. George Hofstetter is President of the Association for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs. ALADS is the collective bargaining agent and represents more than 8,200 deputy sheriffs and district attorney investigators working in Los Angeles County. George can be contacted at ghofstetter@alads.org. 3 We stand with Dallas by Pat Lynch New York City’s police officers know how it feels to lose fellow officers in a senseless, cold-blooded assassination. We stand with the men and women of the Dallas Police Department, DART and with their families to mourn the loss of these fine officers. They did nothing to harm anyone but instead, were protecting the rights of others to be heard in protest. We have said it many times before: the loss of life — every life — is a tragedy. But much of the anger directed at police officers over the past few years has been fueled by erroneous information and inflammatory rhetoric put forward by groups and individuals whose agenda has nothing to do with justice. Our elected leaders fail us when they prejudge incidents without having all the facts and disparage all law enforcement. As we go forward, we need to take an honest, hard look at everything that wrongfully inflames emotions against police officers if we are going to be able to bring police officers and the community together.” Pat Lynch is the president of the PBA of New York City, representing over 24,000 NYPD patrol officers. 4 Pat Lynch (far right in front) and NYPD PBA members travelled to Boston after the Marathon bombing to give whatever support was needed. -Cynthia Brown cynthia@apbweb.com American Police Beat www.apbweb.com This email was sent to why did I get this? unsubscribe from this list update subscription preferences First Strike Media · 505 8th Ave · Suite 1004 · New York, NY 10018 · USA 5 4/18/2017 Moving Forward PRIDE/Choices…..  provides a structured environment for offenders who are willing to take responsibility for their actions and make a conscious effort to learn healthier ways to live.  is an education based program.

Heroin and prescription painkillers (with brand names like Vicodin, Percocet, and Oxycontin) are both opiates. They affect the brain and body in very similar ways. Either one can lead to addiction and overdose. Funded through a generous grant from the PA Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD), The Commonwealth Prevention Alliance (CPA) has developed these resources for anyone looking for help. PA Stop is designed to educate Pennsylvanians about the risks of prescription painkiller and heroin use, the relationship between painkiller and heroin use, and what to do when you need help.           Anyone Can Become Addicted. Anyone.   Break the Connection. There is evidence that, as prescription painkillers become less freely available, heroin use is increasing. Not everyone who uses prescription painkillers will move on to heroin—but many people will. In Pennsylvania and around the country, opiate addiction affects men and women of all ages, races, and geographic locations. Anyone can become addicted. Anyone. There are research-based approaches to preventing and treating opiate use.       Visit PAStop.org for information you can use. Commonwealth Prevention Alliance Stop Opiate Abuse Campaign We are working to prevent nonmedical use of prescription painkillers and, in so doing, to break the connection between heroin and prescription painkillers. Together, we can stop opiate addiction before it starts. Stop Prescription Drug Abuse Before It Starts.     In Centre County, contact: Centre County Drug and Alcohol  3500 E.

PAStop.org Commonwealth Prevention Alliance Stop Opiate Abuse Campaign       The United States is in the midst of an epidemic of opiate addiction and overdose. Pennsylvania’s over dose rate is higher than the national average. ?             The Problem: Did You Know? Overdose kills more people in Pennsylvania than car accidents. Seven Pennsylvanians die every day of a drug overdose. ?       75% of young people who misuse prescription painkillers get them from friends and family, not doctors. About 3 out of 4 new heroin users report having abused painkillers prior to using heroin.   Although the national rate of overdose from prescription painkillers has flattened out in recent years, the rate of heroin overdose has tripled in the last five years.   ?         Prevention: Did You Know? There is strong evidence that involved and supportive parenting can reduce the likelihood that a young person will use drugs. Research clearly shows that early onset of substance use leads to more problems later in life. Some people are at higher risk of addiction than others. A family history of addiction, a mental health condition, an impulsive/ risk-taking personality, and/or a history of trauma are considered to be risk factors. Finding Help: Did You Know? Treatment quality varies. There are questions you can ask that help you find good treatment for yourself or a loved one. Detox and treatment are different. Detox is the medical management of withdrawal symptoms. Treatment addresses the biological, psychological and social aspects of treatment. Detox with no follow-up is not treatment. There are three main types of medications that have been shown to help people recover from opiate addiction; methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone is a popular brand name), and injectable naltrexone (Vivitrol is a popular brand name.) All of which must be medically supervised by health care professionals.                         Counseling can provide encouragement and motivation to stick to treatment. It can teach coping skills and how to prevent relapse. And, it can help people learn how to make healthy decisions, handle setbacks and stress, and move forward with their lives.   Town Hall: The Heroin and Opioid Crisis in Centre County Sponsored by Centre County HOPE Initiative At the Galen and Nancy Dreibelbis Auditorium Mount Nittany Medical Center Tuesday, July 26 7:00 to 9:00 P.M. 6:45 to 7:00 p.m. Welcome and Information Handout 7:00 to 7:10 p.m. Opening Remarks State Senator Jake Corman Centre County Commissioner Steve Dershem Centre County Judge Pamela Ruest 7:10 to 7:20 p.m. Overview of the Crisis 7:20 to 8:20 p.m. Panel Discussion Facilitator: o Stephanie Bradley, Ph.D. Managing Director Evidence Based Prevention and Intervention Support Center Pennsylvania State University Panelists: o State Representative Kerry Benninghoff o Gary Tennis, Secretary of the PA Department of Drug & Alcohol Programs o Dr. Kassandra Botti, Director of Emergency Medical Services - Mount Nittany Medical Center o Sergeant Kelly Aston, State College Police Department o Katie Hugo, Certified Recovery Specialist – Crossroads Counseling o Cathy Arbogast, Assistant Administrator for Centre County Drug and Alcohol Services 8:20 to 8:50 p.m. Questions o For Panelists and Other HOPE Initiative Members 8:50 to 9:00 p.m. Next Steps and Closing Remarks   CENTRE COUNTY HOPE INITIATIVE RESOURCE GUIDE The U.S. is in the midst of an epidemic of opiate addiction, drug overdoses, and overdose deaths.

CENTRE COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE         HEROIN / OPIOID FACT SHEET       WHY IS THERE AN EPIDEMIC?     WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?   Many factors contribute to the escalating problem of heroin and opiate use in this community including:  Prescribing practices, particularly for pain medications.  Heroin is inexpensive and available. Since they are similar, some resort to heroin when pain medications are no longer available.  Lack of available and sufficient treatments (including medication assisted therapies).  Stigma – Addiction is a chronic disease, yet treated as a “moral failing.” This perception makes people less likely to seek treatment. Pure heroin is white. Street heroin varies in color from white to off-white to buff to dark brown, depending on what is used to cut the product. It may also be a black sticky substance known as black tar heroin. Street heroin is almost always packaged in waxed bags that carry a “brand” stamp.           Heroin and opioid overdoses are the leading cause of accidental death in PA, killing more individuals than those involved in fatal motor vehicle accidents (CDC). NO ONE IS IMMUNE! HOW IS IT USED? Smoking, snorting, injecting, inhaling SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS TO KNOW IF YOUR LOVED ONE IS USING HEROIN OR OPIATES Signs of Use Fueled by a boom in prescription pain medicine, heroin and related drug overdoses increased by 20 percent in 2014.

Brenda Witt Fry, The Meadows/UCBH ***************************************************************************** I. Call to Order and Opening Business – Gene Lauri Gene called the meeting to order at 10:00 a.m. Welcome New Attendees and Guests – Gene introduced Abbey Nelson from SCI Benner Township, Jennifer Crane from the Youth Service Bureau, and re-introduced Kate Holmes from the PA Board of Probation and Parole. He also informed the members that Joe Koleno left employment with Centre County. He displayed the certificate that was Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 2 presented to Joe by the CJAB at their last meeting. The certificate commended Joe on his work with the CJAB and the Reentry Coalit1on. Before he left, Joe asked Gene to tell everyone in the Coalition that he really appreciated working with and getting to know the members. He felt that what we are doing here is really important and that the group should carry on as they have been. PCCD Reentry Workshop Announcement – Gene received an email from the Commission on Crime and Delinquency regarding a Reentry Workshop that PCCD (the PA Commission on Crime and Delinquency) and the County Commissioners Association are going to be sponsoring on September 27, 2016. Counties are being invited to attend the workshop as a small team consisting of three to five people. Gene said that at the next meeting they will discuss who will sit on the team. There are going to be some good speakers, including Melanie Snyder, at the Workshop. Additions to the Agenda – The Warden said that CATA donated a bus stop shelter and it is going to be installed on the grounds next week. Gene said that CATA has been very helpful with transportation options which not only helps employees in work release but also helps families and friends without transportation visit people in CCCF. II. Presentation on Keystone Correctional Services, Inc. College Township Community Corrections Project Mark Frailey said that he works for a company out of Harrisburg called Keystone Correctional Services and they have a community corrections center there. About 6 years ago, Mark and an individual, Mr. Terry Davis from Keystone Correctional Services, teamed up to try to implement a community corrections center in Centre County. There are 53 community corrections centers in Pennsylvania, 40 of which are privately run and are faith-based, non-profit, and for-profit. There are 13 state operated centers. Currently, there are about 4,000 residents in the community corrections program. The centers located closest to Centre County are in Johnstown and Williamsport. Residents enrolled in the program are those who have completed all of the programming requirements in the DOC, and have met all of their requirements for parole. Mark found some property located in the industrial park in College Township. This is a good location for the center because there are not any homes, parks, schools, or daycares close to this location. However, it is close to transportation and College Avenue, which is a benefit. Additionally, the property is located close to both SCI Benner and SCI Rockview. Mark presented photos of the Harrisburg corrections center to give the members a visual of how a center can be laid out. A community corrections center is a secure facility staffed 24 hours a day. The staff controls the in and out movement of residents and they cannot leave without prior approval. Each resident is assigned a case manager who approves when the resident can leave the center and how long the individual will be gone. If the individual does not return by the allocated time, the State Police are contacted and the resident is considered to be absconded. Residents are technically still in custody while at living at a community corrections center. They can Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 3 leave for a specific purpose such as work, appointments, and church and/or church activities. When they return to the center, they are searched and administered a breathalyzer. The opening of a community corrections center in Centre County would generate about 40 full-time and part-time jobs to include a full time employment specialist, cases managers, house monitors, and supervisors. In Harrisburg, most of the staff consists of retired police officers and corrections officers. The American Corrections Association set some standards for the education of case managers. In the living area of the center, there are waist high walls separating sleeping areas. Each resident is given a bunk to sleep on, a trunk to store clothes, and a filing cabinet for additional storage. Any belongings that do not fit in their living space get boxed up and put in storage until they leave. Each area is constantly monitored by cameras and by a staff member. There is a commercial kitchen, dining area, living room, and training room. The American Corrections Association sets standards and awards accreditation to community corrections centers that meet their requirements. On Thursday, June 16th, they are going to meet with the township supervisors regarding the zoning of the property. Mark said that the township supervisors have been extremely supportive. Commissioner Pipe toured the Harrisburg community correctional center and he is in support of the Centre County community corrections center project. Mark wanted the Reentry Coalition to be informed of what a community corrections center is. Mark was asked and answered a few questions. Q: Will the residents of the community corrections center remain in Centre County? A: The DOC’s goal is to place people in a community corrections center that is as close as possible to their home when they are released. As such, those individuals may not remain in Centre County, but they will be in a surrounding county. Q: Is there a minimum or maximum amount of time that the residents will remain at the community correctional center? A: There is not because when they come to the center, they are already paroled. The average stay is about 6 months, but could be shorter or longer. Q: How many residents will the center hold? A: Mark said that the Harrisburg center has 150 beds. He is unsure what the number will be in Centre County, but it will be over 100 beds. Q: Are you going to take a certain population of sex offenders? A: The center will not have a choice on who they take. However, the DOC is sensitive to that issue. Paroled sex offenders will go to a center located near the community they are returning to. Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 4 Q: Are the residents those individuals who are close to getting out? A: The residents are individuals who do not have a home plan when they are paroled. Going through a community corrections center program reduces recidivism. Q: Are the residents under the DOC custody, or are they not? A: These individuals are parolees that are paroled to the community corrections center and are still under the custody of the DOC. Q: If the individual needs treatment during their stay at the community corrections center, who pays for that? A: The Bureau of Community Corrections will fund it because they are still under DOC custody. While in the community corrections center, they are not eligible for social security disability, which can create problems for their home plan if that is the only source of income for that individual. Q: Will the community corrections center house females? A: There are female community corrections centers, but the one in Centre County would just be for males. Q: Will the individuals being paroled from CCCF be able to be paroled to the community corrections center? A: No, it is just for state inmates. Q: How long would the residents have been incarcerated before they are paroled to the center? A: They would be incarcerated at least 2½ years, which is a minimum state sentence, or more. What Mark is looking for from the Reentry Coalition with regard to the community corrections center is for the members to just know about the facility is and what it is not. Commissioner Pipe personally supports the project. The Warden was confused to why CCCF parolees would not be accepted at the community corrections center. It has been an issue at the local level with home plans and finding an acceptable place for their parolees. Mark said that some centers that take federal inmates and it might be possible to take county parolees as well, but it would be up to the owner of the center and the state to determine in their contact who will be accepted at the center. Gene explained that there is some concern with exposing lower risk county parolees to high risk state parolees. In order to keep the low risk offenders from becoming high risk ones, you would want to keep the two separated. If they could keep the county inmates separated from state inmates in the center, then it might work. Since there is a cost associated with residing at the community corrections center, residents need to work and when they receive their paycheck, they need to contribute to Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 5 fines, costs, child support, savings, and a certain percentage of their earnings go to the facility. III. Review of “What We Need to Work On” From the April 8 Meeting From the breakout session at the April 8th meeting, the following items were identified as “what we were doing well”, and “what we need to work on”. What are we doing well? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Engagement and collaboration Programming at CCCF and the mentorship program Meeting allows other agencies to see what others are doing Resource guide Having returning citizens speak to the group What do we need to work on? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Reach out to the community Life skills PREP for housing Resocialization – budgeting/how are household decisions being made since the person’s absence Lack of positive support Have returning citizens work on obtaining GED while on parole – have parole agents suggest/talk about this as part of their parole plan Educating about collateral consequences of entering a plea Fine tune what we are already have implemented or are working on before beginning anything else Subcommittees A group of volunteers from the Reentry Coalition met on May 9th to go over these nine areas identified as needing to be worked on. The goal was for the group to identify two or three areas to be concentrated on over the next several months. This small group that met was able to combine a few of the areas that were similar in nature and the priorities that came out of the meeting are: 1. Reaching out to the community combined with the lack of positive support. When the Reentry Coalition first began to meet, there was discussion about holding a summit or a town hall meeting to raise awareness about reentry and returning citizens. It is in everyone’s best interest to do whatever we can to provide returning citizens with the tools to be successful when returning to the community. This is something that the group really felt needed to be prioritized and worked on. Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 6 2. Life Skills to include PREP Housing, Resocialization, and other life skill type things that returning citizens would benefit from when returning to the community. In the past two to three years, CCCF has been doing a great job at having inmates wrap up their programming before being released. However, what are the other things that can be done not only by CCCF, but by other organizations that would provide the returning citizens with more information, skills, etc. to help them be successful. These are the two primary areas that were identified to work on. The suggestion of the group was to create a subcommittee for reaching out to the community, and the life skills area. As such, Gene asked for individuals who are interested in sitting on either of the subcommittees to email him. They are looking for five to six people for each subcommittee to begin meeting within the next week or two. Gene was asked what the process currently is to educate individuals about collateral consequences of entering a plea. Gene said that the group discussed that area and decided that this is an item for the CJAB to look at; it will be on the agenda for their July meeting. By entering a plea, there may be some collateral consequences that the individual may not even be aware of. The American Bar Association has a website that compiled the collateral consequences for offenses by state. IV. Coalition Against Overdoses Update The Coalition Against Overdoses was created out of the CJAB drug overdose subcommittee. The heroin/opioid problem in Centre County is a big concern with the Court, Commissioners, individuals in the treatment field, and citizens within the county. Cathy said that in the different trainings and symposiums attended, they all talk of addressing the issue in four areas: prevention and education, law enforcement and interdiction, treatment, and recovery. If you do not have all four components equally represented, then your project is not going to be effective. Cathy talked about some of the things the Coalition and members of the Coalition have already been involved in. She had Gene pull up the County website to show the members what they have added to the homepage. An image from PAStop.org has been added to the scrolling photos. Accompanying the image is the link to PAStop.org and the County Drug and Alcohol Office. PA Stop originated from the Commonwealth Prevention Alliance who was awarded a grant from PCCD to provide information about the opiate and heroin epidemic, and to prepare media materials to be used across the state. On the PA Stop website, you can access prevention information, caregiver information, print materials, etc. PA Stop also received additional funding and they have put up a billboard in Centre County by the Nittany Mall. Additionally, on the website there is a link to a handout created by the Coalition that is specific to the Good Samaritan Law. The message being communicated in that link is the importance for people witnessing an overdose to call 911. There is also information on the handout outlining certain legal immunities for those calling 911 and the person experiencing the overdose. Cathy Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 7 explained that the Coalition is interested in expanding the material provided on the County website in order to provide more information to the public. The Coalition is also working on creating a one page resource tool, toolkits, public service announcements, and additional materials to help bring awareness to the heroin and opiate epidemic and what services are available. The District Attorney has submitted a grant for prescription drug collection boxes. The boxes have arrived and they should be installed by the end of the month. The boxes will be located where law enforcement can securely monitor them. Community members can drop off old or expired medications to the collection boxes with no questions asked. The locations will be at multiple police departments, the Willowbank Building, and the Sheriff’s Office. The draft one page resource guide was displayed to the Reentry Coalition members. The purpose of this guide is to provide was much information on one page to individuals regarding this issue. One topic listed on the one page resource guide talks about Naloxone. The State Police and three Centre County police departments are now carrying Naloxone, a lifesaving tool used when administered to a person experiencing an overdose. When Naloxone is administered in time to an opiate/heroin overdose, it knocks the opioid off the brain receptors and revives the individual. The laws have changed to allow police to carry Naloxone so the first responder to an overdose scene can administer it and reverse the overdose. A state wide prescription allows Pennsylvania citizens to obtain Naloxone if they or someone they know is at risk of overdosing. Gene explained that this information is important regarding reentry because when heroin/opiate users are released, many go back to using the same dose of drugs as before they were incarcerated, creating a higher risk of overdosing. Another good thing about Naloxone is if it is administered to an individual who is not experiencing an overdose, it will not harm them because nothing will happen. However, one challenge that occurs with the administration of Naloxone is once the individual is awake and has lost their high, they may not be happy and as a result they refuse medical treatment. Refusal of treatment after being administered Naloxone can be potentially dangerous because the opiate is still in the body and when the Naloxone wears off, the person could overdose again. Cathy explained that the Drug and Alcohol office has been meeting with Mount Nittany Medical Center to discuss specific needs and requests their staff may have serving those who have overdosed. Additionally, Mount Nittany Medical Center is an active partner of the Coalition. Through Interfaith Human Services, Cathy, Kelly Aston from the State College Police Department, and Bonnie Kline-Smeltzer, a mother who lost a child to an overdose, had the opportunity to present for individuals in the faith community. There was a good response and a good discussion to that presentation and Cathy is hopeful that there will be more of them in the future. Last September, the Drug and Alcohol Advisory Council hosted showing of The Anonymous People, a 90 minute documentary of the millions of Americans who are Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 8 successfully living in long-term recovery. The documentary talks about stigma, and the barriers that many people experience as they work a path to recovery. The Council is looking to do another showing this September. The Youth Service Bureau continues to offer the Strengthening Families Program (SFP), an evidence based program that focuses on building parenting skills and family relationships. The SFP has been identified by the Penn State EPISCenter and the State to be effective in reducing substance abuse to include heroin and opiate use. The Coalition Against Overdoses is working on bringing awareness to the community and creating materials to provide information regarding the heroin and opiate epidemic. The Coalition will be hosting a town hall meeting regarding this issue on Tuesday, July 26th from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Mounty Nittany Medical Center Galen and Nancy Dreibelbis Auditorium. Executive Director Linda Rosenberg from the PA Commission on Crime and Delinquency, Secretary Gary Tennis from the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, Representative Kerry Benninghoff, Senator Jake Corman, and the Commissioners will be in attendance of the town hall meeting. The meeting will consist of a number of panelists who will talk about the extent of the opiate and heroin epidemic, followed by questions and comments from the community. The Coalition anticipates that there will be media coverage as well. This will be the initial town hall meeting held and will be followed by additional town hall meetings representing the four areas in addressing the epidemic. They want to hear from members of the community who have been affected by substance abuse and begin to get them involved. Wendy Burket informed the Reentry Coalition that the VA is now giving two Narcan kits to veterans who are at risk of overdosing. The veteran brings in a responsible family member and the VA provides trainings on how to administer the Narcan in the instance of an emergency. With regard to the drug collection boxes, the departments are looking to collaborate with the National Guard for collection and disposal of the drugs that are dropped off. The collection boxes will be installed permanently at the police departments. Once the collection boxes are installed, the plan is to then ask pharmacies to attach a sheet containing the drug collection box locations in their prescription stuffers. Natalie also suggested that funeral homes would be a good place to have brochures as when a loved on passes away, is would be important for their family members to know where they can dispose of their unused medication. V. Building Hope Mentoring Program Update Danielle Minarchick gave an update on the Building Hope Mentoring Program. She explained that the program matches CCCF inmates with an individual in the community so when they are released, they have support in the community. Mentors were recruited by word of mouth. Currently, there have been six matches made. While this might sound small, Danielle said they wanted to start the program out small in case any issues surfaced, and they could really be involved in working those issues out. They have held Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 9 two trainings for mentors. There are still two mentors that need to be matched. There are four matches in the community, and two matches still in CCCF. They have received really good feedback about the program from participants. There was one individual who returned to CCCF after being released due to a technical violation. That individual continues to work with his mentor in CCCF. Shelby and Danielle check in with the participants weekly. Overall, the program has been going really well. VI. Concept for the Future? – Reentry Office/Organization Centre County does not have a central reentry organization. There are a lot of different agencies in the community, but Gene said in the future it might make sense to have a reentry organization where returning citizens could go to go through a process to receive assistance with reentering into society. At this point, Gene has no idea how it would be funded or staffed, but in the near future there is going to be a lot of funding for reentry efforts. Abbey Nelson from SCI Benner Township said that the DOC is still in the early stages of reentry efforts and they are trying to catch up. Most institutions have transitional housing units where once inmates receive a definite parole date, they can transfer to an institution closer to where they will be reentering into the community. In those housing units, inmates can participate in workshops such as life skills. VII. Open Floor / Open Discussion Natalie announced that there is a taskforce that is beginning to meet to discuss human trafficking in Centre County. They talk about if human trafficking is happening in our community, what are the signs, what to look for, and what resources are out there if it is occurring. Centre County has two major highways that cut through it, and there are already known incidents where human trafficking has happened in this area. It is also occurring because of the truck stops located in the County. This is not an issue that is always talked about, but it is starting to be discussed some more. If anyone has any interest in meeting with this group, let Natalie know. Gene introduced two additional individuals in attendance, Susan Michalik and Ryan Cummins from MidPenn Legal Services. Susan said that what drew her to attend this meeting was HUD housing using arrest and criminal records in denying housing to individuals. She said this is really going to be a hot topic by the end of the year. There is suggested guidance from HUD about easing up on using those records. Ryan said that in the past, there was a one strike policy. Now they are to look at the individual offense to determine the specific circumstances, etc. and if someone should lose their housing or not because of that offense. The Warden explained that CCCF just went through a Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) Audit and received 100%. This Act was created to reduce and eliminate sexual abuse inside of correction facilities, whether it was inmate on inmate, or staff on inmate Centre County Reentry Planning Meeting June 10, 2016 Page 10 incidents. CCCF was the 2nd or 3rd best compliant facility in the state. Abbey said that all SCI facilities are operated under PREA. SCI Benner Township also just received 100% on their PREA Audit. Mark Frailey said that he was contacted by a group at SCI Benner Township called IHOPE (Inmates Helping Our Prison Environment) and was asked to act as a liason for the group. They want to develop a positive relationship with the community and how they treat staff and others. The Superintendent approved for the group to do a fundraiser to sell over 12,000 donuts from Dunkin Donuts to the inmates. The proceeds from that fundraiser they want to donate to some community organizations, and are interested in groups involving youth or victim advocacy. If you have any recipient ideas, see Mark. Bonnie Millmore explained that CACJ has the Youth Aid Panel Program which is a program for first time arrested youth. The program is run by all volunteers and they work with up to 60 or 70 youth, but they have had an explosion in referrals. They need more volunteers to serve on the panel, which entails coming to one meeting a month for about 3 hours. They meet with the youth and their parents, and the offender needs to admit to the violation. Each offender is assigned a panel monitor who reaches out to them one time a week. The monitor helps write the offender’s contract which involves apology letters, community service, attending school, etc. Each offender then develops a project. The program’s purpose is to keep first time offending youth out of the system. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, visit the CACJ website. Betsy Barndt said that right now HUD is not forcing housing authorities into using their suggested guidance, but she believes in the future, that they will begin to enforce it and say that they are violating fair housing laws if they do not look at the individual’s charges. In August the local housing authority in Centre County is going to be reviewing their admin plan in case anyone is interested in attending the meeting to provide their input in reference to housing ex-offenders.

Judge Grine mentioned that he had a chance to work with Joe on the prison work release program and said that it was great to work with him. Gene said that Joe has been a great help not only with the CJAB, but with the Reentry Coalition from the very beginning. Any time that information was needed from CCCF or any time a presentation was needed by the CCCF, Joe has always helped in a timely manner. Gene also spoke about Joe’s work and participation with the DUI Court Program. When the DUI Court Team met, Joe would attend as a liaison for CCCF and would report on those individuals serving the work release portion of their sentence. While Joe is going to be missed, everyone thanked him for his hard work and wished him the best on his new endeavor. II. AROUND THE TABLE Bonnie Millmore – No report. Joe Koleno – Joe said that he has really enjoyed his employment in Centre County and that it is hard for him to leave. He has been employed since 2002 and he has a lot of good memories. He has met so many wonderful people through DUI Court, MHID, and PCCD and it is going to be hard for him to leave. He thanked everyone and said he is excited to take his experience and knowledge, and apply it in his new adventure. Warden Rick Smith – The Warden gave an update to the group on the CCCF population, which is at 330 inmates. He is thankful for all of the people that he works for because if there is a problem here at CCCF, he calls them and they authorize for the problem to be fixed. CCCF is in a saving mode with the Courts. Secretary Wetzel imposed sanctions on Schuylkill County and CCCF has taken 10 of their female inmates, and any other inmate that can fit. Right now they have the need for females so we normally do not have any more room. Northumberland County is in trouble as their facility burned down. CCCF is helping them out by housing around 30 of their male and female inmates. Other surrounding counties have medical issues, and as CCCF has around the clock medical, we help those counties out. Lastly, the Warden mentioned that they are currently hiring 12 officers. After the first year of training and raises, a corrections officer at CCCF is making about $40,000 a year. He said that there are not many jobs out there with a comparable salary just starting out. Commissioner Michael Pipe – No report. Mark Frailey – Recently, the Prison Society has been really active at SCI Rockview and SCI Benner Township. Specifically, in working with SCI Benner Township, Mark received a letter from a group called Inmates Helping Our Prison Environment (IHOPE). IHOPE is comprised of long-term and life sentence inmates wanting to contribute to the community. The group has asked Mark to be a liaison. They are going to have a fundraiser and want to contribute some money to a few local charity groups, such as an autism group, or a child abuse and victim group. Mark asked for anyone with suggestions to let him know. Judge Grine suggested that Kendra could see if any of the judges have any suggestions when she meets with them. Mark said that he meets with CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 3 of 10 the IHOPE group on Tuesday. Kendra mentioned the Child Advocacy Center and the Child Access Center that are here in Centre County. Tom Young suggested the Youth Service Bureau’s JUMP Program which links juvenile offenders with adult mentors. The JUMP Program is a subsidiary of the Big Brother/Big Sister Program. Gladys Hart – No report. Wendy Burket – Wendy thanked the CJAB for having her attend the meeting and become a member of the CJAB. Chief Diane Conrad – No report. Sheriff Bryan Sampsel – No report. Kate Holmes – Kate introduced herself. She is with the PA State Parole Board and is based out of the Williamsport office. Specifically she is the ASCRA Agent and her job is to do CBT workshops with high risk offenders, employment workshops, and reentry oriented tasks. Commissioner Steven Dershem – Commissioner Dershem wanted to recognize all of those who are very active in the CIT program, specifically Tracy Small and Natalie Corman. The program celebrated its fifth year this year. They were able to have a celebration where Karri Hull and Jackie Weaknecht from PCCD attended. Commissioner Dershem said that he had a special time recognizing their efforts with that organization as they have done some pretty amazing things with CIT. Additionally, he thanked Gene for his participation with the program. Commissioner Dershem said that they are making us all proud. He also wanted to thank everyone who has come together to make the Coalition Against Overdoses so effective. Commissioner Dershem is getting a lot of feedback from the community that this is an important issue. Additionally, he welcomed Brandi Rider, who is interested in joining in on the conversation with the Coalition. Brandy Rider – No report. Judge Grine – No report. Kendra Miknis – No report. Commissioner Mark Higgins – Commissioner Higgins wanted to thank everyone in the group for their work as unlike other counties, Centre County’s prison population is stable or has been dropping, which he believes is a huge credit to everyone in the room. Chief Tom King – Chief King thanked the Commissioners for their support of Police Memorial Week. Last week the Commissioners signed a proclamation and participated in the memorial ceremony. He also said that Judge Oliver spoke at the ceremony and gave a wonderful, powerful message. Chief King also said that State College Borough is in the process of looking at enforcing marijuana laws a little differently. This will not change the marijuana laws in the State, but they are considering whether or not they should be charging marijuana violations as summary offenses or not. If implemented, it CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 4 of 10 would be an ordinance violation. They have consulted with the District Attorney, Borough Solicitor, and the District Attorney’s Association to make sure that everything they are doing is legitimate. Ultimately, it is up to counsel to make the decision. One of the concerns across the state is that people with marijuana violations are filling up the county jails. However, Chief King noted that it be very unusual to find anyone in jail on just a first time offense, small amount marijuana case. Pittsburgh and Philadelphia have already implemented similar marijuana laws, and Harrisburg is looking at implementing them. He said Kerry Benninghoff attended the Chief’s Meeting last month as it might make sense to this to be a statewide change. Lastly, Chief King said that he will not be at the next meeting in July. As such, he wanted to say farewell to all of the members. He has enjoyed being on the board, and recognized that the CJAB has been established for 17 years tomorrow. He and Gene will discuss a replacement for his spot on the CJAB. Karri Hull – Karri will talk about the JAG Solicitation and the Mini-Grant Proposal later on as they are already on the agenda to be discussed. Natalie Corman – Natalie said that the next CIT training is the week of June 13th. She invited everyone to the CIT Graduation scheduled for Friday, June 17th at 2 p.m. at the Ferguson Township Building. Tracy will send an email to Gene and send a reminder out. Tom McDermott – No report. Cathy Arbogast – Cathy said that they are tracking a few things in their department right now. Recently, they had a surge of adolescents referred for residential treatment. She said that there were four or five at one point, and this is very unusual given that they normally can go an entire year and only see two or three referrals. This is concerning to them, so they are continuing to track this trend. With regard to the Coalition Against Overdoes being formed, she has received a number of calls from individuals in the community who have formed their own coalitions wanting to partner with the Coalition Against Overdoses. She has also received phone calls from individuals who want to provide their thoughts on the topic. She also reported that they are still in the development phases, but Community Care Behavioral Health has executed a contract with one of their providers, Clear Concepts Counseling, for the formation of two recovery houses. These houses would serve as a housing option for those who are in the early stages of their addiction recovery, and for individuals wo have been in recovery for a while but are looking for a supportive, substance free living arrangement. Gene Lauri – Gene said that he has a few things that he will discuss later in the meeting. Tom Young – Tom said that they have seen an uptick in individuals testing positive for methamphetamine in their street tests. Cathy said that she has heard from Clarion and Clearfield County that methamphetamine is making a comeback. Tom said they are also seeing a lot of opioid use. Mark Smith – Mark said that the District Attorney’s Office submitted the grant application for the medication return boxes. He is unsure of what the turnaround time is for receiving the boxes. Once the boxes are in place, the plan is to have willing CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 5 of 10 pharmacies staple a sheet containing the locations of the medication collection boxes to prescriptions when they are filled. Denise Elbell – No report. III. COMMITTEE REPORTS PCCD Update – Karri said that the only update she has is regarding the funding announcements that Gene has on the agenda for later in the meeting. She will answer any questions at that point. CJAB Drug Overdose Subcommittee Report – Gene said that in the later part of 2015, then CJAB Chair, Judge Lunsford, appointed a drug overdose committee that originally consisted of individuals from Criminal Justice Planning, Drug and Alcohol, and law enforcement. As time went on, more individuals joined the subcommittee in looking at what is going on in Centre County. Several members of the subcommittee attended the PCCD Opioid Symposium in January and following that, they really began to discuss what can be done within Centre County to address the problem. It was decided that they needed to do what other counties are doing and have additional entities to join the organization. This is not an issue specific to just law enforcement, or mental health. With the addition of other entities, the subcommittee evolved into the Centre County Coalition Against Overdoses, and two weeks ago the group was formalized by entering into a MOU with all of the partnering organizations that were recruited. Those organizations are law enforcement, Criminal Justice Planning, Mental Health, Drug and Alcohol, Children and Youth Services, the Youth Service Bureau, County Commissioners, etc. The goal of the Coalition is to reduce or eliminate the drug abuse, drug overdoses, and drug overdose related deaths within Centre County. In 2014, there were 16 overdose related deaths in Centre County; and in 2015, there were 15. To date, the Coalition Against Overdoses has already implemented a few prevention approaches. An application for drug collection boxes was submitted by the District Attorney’s Office. When the boxes are in place, they will help to keep prescription drugs from falling into the wrong hands and keep them off the street. On the Centre County website homepage, a PA Stop ad stating that, “anyone can become addicted,” is displayed with the link to the Centre County Drug and Alcohol Office’s website, and the link for the PA Stop website. That website is sponsored by the Commonwealth Prevention Alliance and has information about finding help, prescription drug FAQs, and a caregiver toolkit. The PA Stop website is a great source for individuals who are looking to obtain more information about addiction or help. There is another link listed on the County’s homepage with information about Act 139, labeled as the Good Samaritan Law, which is a law encouraging individuals to call 911 when witnessing an overdose without fear of facing legal charges. The PA Stop website also offers various media products that can be downloaded and printed out. They would like to have some of these materials printed with information on where to seek help in Centre County. The Coalition would like to obtain approval from the CJAB to apply for funds through a PCCD mini grant to pay for materials to distribute CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 6 of 10 and display throughout the county. There materials would include a brochure about the opioid/heroin problem, posters, and the creation of a public service announcement. The Coalition has tentatively scheduled a town hall meeting for Tuesday, July 26th from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Dreibelbis auditorium at Mount Nittany Medical Center. They are still in the planning stage, but will have more information available as they proceed. Chief Conrad said that she is really appreciative of the Coalition as many people believe that the heroin/opiate problem is just a law enforcement issue, which it clearly is not. Law enforcement is trying to do their part, but they can only do so much. The investigations are long and complicated, and there is no way they can keep drugs completely out of the community. However, she said that law enforcement members have really stepped up with the creation of the County Drug Task Force; and the State Police are doing an awesome job with intervention on Interstate 80. Chief Conrad said that through the Coalition they discovered the overdose deaths include older individuals who became addicted to opioids prescribed by their doctor. When the opioids were no longer being prescribed, they turned to heroin. It is a very insidious problem, and we are going to be dealing with it for a long time. There is pressure and many questions coming from the community wondering what we are doing. Given that the Coalition just began meeting in late 2015, Chief Conrad feels that they have moved along very fast. They have obtained some professional advice from some individuals at Penn State, which has been very helpful. The Coalition is encouraging everyone to refer individuals to the County website to obtain more information, and they are going to continue to get as much information out to the community as they can. Within the next few months, individuals will begin to see more information being provided to the public. Cathy said the Drug and Alcohol Office is working with their treatment providers as a number of them are looking to expend bed capacity. They recognize that speaking with individuals who are ready to seek treatment that the window of opportunity is not big. We need to get our system to the point where those people are able to access treatment as soon as they are ready. The Drug and Alcohol office is also working on putting together some materials that can be distributed by law enforcement and emergency workers informing how people can access services when they are ready. The Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs has made survivors of an overdose a priority population for services. As such, the Drug and Alcohol Office will be doing what they can to get them into the treatment that they need. They are also making case management and recovery services available because this is an important component in helping people stay clean. Cathy explained that the Coalition has a Technical Assistance Application in with the University of Pittsburgh to help with the Coalition project. A conference call is scheduled with them for the next Coalition meeting. They are trying to make as many opportunities, options, and strategies available as they can. Gene displayed for the group a sample PA Stop brochure with information about the prescription drug and heroin problem. The brochure has the County Drug and Alcohol Office’s information listed on the back of it. He also displayed the posters that the coalition wants to have printed. The posters will have the Drug and Alcohol Office CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 7 of 10 website listed on it. Cathy mentioned that there are already some PA Stop Billboards in Centre County. They are still trying to figure out who sponsored them, but Cathy believes that PA Stop received another grant and they are trying to broaden their media reach. There is one billboard located not far from the Drug and Alcohol Office, and there is one located on 322 before you come over Seven Mountains. Cathy said the Coalition recognizes that they need to bring in some additional partners who either have life experience, have been successful in recovery, and/or are family members who experienced addiction. They would like to have them assist in identifying what the needs are in Centre County, or what they would find helpful in bringing changes about. Diane explained that there has been some discussion about bringing in other partners such as the schools, and additional health care providers. Mount Nittany Health is already a Coalition partner. It was mentioned that a lot of stigma still remains around addiction. A lot of the Coalition’s efforts are going to be aimed at reducing stigma and raising awareness that people are becoming addicted unintentionally. The image people used to have about what a heroin addict looks like is not what it is now. Commissioner Dershem said that the important goal for the town hall meeting is to try to make people aware of the prescription drug and heroin problem in Centre County. A lot of community members do not understand the dynamic of the problem. Many think it is an intercity problem, and not in Centre County. We need an all-hands on deck approach to make people aware that prescription drugs can be the start of an addiction. It is a multi-dimensional problem that whether it is a place to dispose of medication, or the identification that heroin is a more pervasive problem than it was in the 1960s, he feels that we need to get that word out to the community and remove the stigma. This is not just a youth problem; it is a problem that affects even those who have medical procedures and become addicted to pain medicine. The big push he has seen is to get people to understand that the problem is in our community. It is something we need to address and have conversations about it. Bonnie asked if there are any evidence-based practices that have been proven to work in preventing prescription drug and heroin abuse. Cathy explained that they have met with the Penn State EPISCenter and they are looking at strategies that show the most promise for being effective. There are certain curriculums on the prevention side such as the Strengthening Families Program and Life Skills Training, both of which have been proven to be effective in communities where these issues are going on. They also talked about some strategies on the intervention side such as the use of drug collection boxes, medication assisted therapies, making Narcan available, and prescription drug monitoring programs. In August, the prescription drug monitoring program should be in effect in Pennsylvania. One of the concerns with the prescription drug monitoring program is that if physicians and pharmacies are starting to track people who doctor and pharmacy shop and obtain multiple prescriptions, then cracking down on them, we may see a surge in heroin usage because it is cheaper and more easily accessible; or we may see a surge in individuals seeking treatment because they are no longer able to obtain what they had been taking. All of those these strategies are something that the Coalition has looked at, talked about, or are considering. What works in another county may not work in our CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 8 of 10 county, but it all needs to start with a conversation. Commissioner Dershem said on the opposite side of looking at evidence-based practices, there are a few programs that have been identified as not working - Scared Straight and the D.A.R.E. Program in its original form. There needs to be more to the message than, “just say no,” so there needs to be new programs developed. There is not a quick fix or solution or one that removes the problem 100%. Chief King said that he has a few members of the community pushing really hard to do something while everything else is taking form. One of those individuals is a State College restaurant owner who has asked if he can meet with the President Judge to voice some of his concerns. Another individual is a mother who lost her only child to an overdose. She has emailed various members of organizations about being able to talk about her concerns as well. Chief King spoke with Judge Kistler and it is on Judge Kistler’s calendar to meet with these individuals on Tuesday of next week. Chief King has seen this restaurant owner a few times, and every time he expresses concern about how heroin seems to be very prominent in the food business to include the chefs and servers. The restaurant owner has lost three employees in the last three years to heroin overdoses. He has walked in on some of his employees shooting up heroin in the bathrooms of his businesses. To be successful, we are going to need to listen to those who are affected by the drug abuse issue. Chief King said the way to tackle any issue is through education, as the Coalition is doing; environment, such as installing drug collection boxes; and enforcement, which gives the message that certain behaviors are not acceptable in Centre County. IV. OLD BUSINESS April 12 – 13 CJAB Conference – Summary Report In April, a number of CJAB members attended the CJAB Conference. If you go to the PCCD website, there is a link for the CJAB conference. This link brings up a number of presentations from the conference. Gene recommended that the members of the CJAB take a look at the What Works and What Doesn’t in Reducing Recidivism presentation by Dr. Ed Latessa from the University of Cincinnati. V. AGENDA ITEMS Therapeutic Court Discussion Judge Grine said that he took over the DUI Court after Judge Lunsford retired. He is just amazed at how the DUI Court runs and the impact it is having on the individuals involved. The participants are maintaining sobriety, reconnecting with their families, and obtaining jobs. With these therapeutic courts, it is a lot more time intensive for the judges, participants, and staff but they all work together to get the best results. From the Court’s standpoint they see a lot of issues with the use of prescription and nonprescription drugs, alcohol, and mental health. They do have the DUI Court, but Judge Grine believes that if they expand out into a drug court and mental health court, it will have a huge impact on people who are coming through the court system. What he is seeing now is that there are a lot of individuals with drug issues who end up in jail, do CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 9 of 10 programming at the jail, and then when they are released they go back to the same environment and end up in trouble again. Judge Grine moved to create a therapeutic court committee to have individuals look at the possibility of such courts implemented in Centre County. The motion was seconded and as no one opposed, the motion passed. The members of the committee will consist of those individuals who met to look into grant funding. 2015 – 2016 JAG Single Solicitation for Local Initiatives Gene said that the JAG Grant application deadline is June 24th. At this time, we are not ready to apply for funding to start a therapeutic court. A group met to discuss the grant and thought that we should put together a proposal for some funding to help us decide that type of therapeutic court would work best for Centre County, and obtain a professional opinion on the feasibility, number of potential clients that would be referred to that court, and what type of staffing it would require. The other part of having a therapeutic court is having the infrastructure for it to work. DUI, drug, and mental health courts have all been proven to be effective as long as they are operated the way they are intended, which is a key component. It is necessary to have the proper resources and staff. Gene suggested a proposal should be put together and presented to the CJAB and the Commissioners to apply for funding to do an assessment on what we need to do in terms of a therapeutic court. Gene said that we need to get a handle on the numbers to determine how many people come through who would be eligible for the therapeutic court. Tom McDermott took a moment to advocate for a drug and/or mental health court as he has done a lot of outreach to other counties who have some kind of behavior health court. Those counties all said that the initial startup of the court is a little hard for about a year, but once things begin to level off, they all said that it is time and resources well spent. A motion was made to prepare a proposal to apply for funding to look at the therapeutic court. The motion was seconded and as no one opposed, the motion passed. The members of the committee would consist of those individuals who attended a meeting on looking into grant funding. 2016 – 2017 CJAB Mini-Grant Proposal Gene would like approval from the CAJB to put together a grant proposal for funding through the PCCD Mini-Grant to print media materials for the Coalition Against Overdoses. The proposal that has been put together is for around $1,100. Commissioner Higgins made a motion for putting the grant proposal together and submitting it to PCCD. Anne seconded the motion. It was voted on and the motion passed. VI. OPEN DISCUSSION Anne wanted to let the CJAB know that the Women’s Resource Center is applying for JAG funding to do a comprehensive top to bottom review of their services, including their branding; then subsequently hire someone to provide outreach and direct services to male victims. This is an issue that they have struggled with over the years and they need CJAB Meeting Minutes May 27, 2016 Page 10 of 10 to handle that in a comprehensive way. Anne stated that the JAG grants are nice because they are not a formula grant so there can be more than one application from within a county, and they are great for helping get new initiatives off the ground. Anne said they will be asking for a local jurisdiction waiver from the Commissioners since they are not a governmental agency and it is a requirement for the application. She also would like to have the support of the CJAB. A motion was made to have the CJAB support the Women’s Resource Center in the application. The motion was seconded. Before voting, Commissioner Pipe wanted to confirm that the Women’s Resource Center’s JAG grant application would not invalidate the CJAB’s application for JAG funding. Karri said that as long as they are not under the same objective that it would not invalidate it. She suggested that they double check and make sure of this because if PCCD receives two applications from the same county that fall under the same objective, both applications are automatically rejected. Anne said that she will speak with Gene to make sure of this. With this information, Chief King amended his motion stating that it stands as long as the WRC’s application does not invalidate the CJAB’s application. Tom Young seconded the amended motion. It was voted on and the amended motion passed. VII. RECAP, ACTION PLAN & AGENDA ITEMS FOR NEXT MEETING VIII. ADJOURN Gene made a motion to adjourn the meeting. It was seconded, and the meeting adjourned at 1:03 p.m. NEXT MEETING DATES July 29, 2016 11:45 a.m. – 1:15 p.m. CCCF Community Room Kristen M.

Simkins From: Cynthia Brown <cynthia=apbweb.com@mail20.atl71.mcdlv.net> on behalf of Cynthia Brown <cynthia@apbweb.com> Sunday, July 10, 2016 2:20 PM Richard C. Smith Dallas: An Unfathomable Tragedy Sent: To: Subject: 5 Slain Dallas Officers Served Overseas and at Home The New York Times By ALAN BLINDER and ALAN FEUER JULY 8, 2016 From left, Lorne Ahrens, Michael Krol, Michael J. Smith, Brent Thompson and Patrick Zamarripa. DALLAS — On Thursday night, around the time the gunfire started, Kristy Villasenor, the wife of a Dallas police officer, posted a picture of herself and her toddler daughter on Facebook from a Texas Rangers baseball game at Globe Life Park in Arlington. 2 Soon after, one of her friends commented anxiously on the photo: “Glad Pat is there and not in Dallas right now.” Ms. Villasenor replied: “He’s not here.” Pat — her husband, Officer Patrick Zamarripa — was in Dallas during the game, caught in the crosshairs of a sniper’s rifle that would eventually claim his life and those of four other officers. The news of the killings emerged almost in real time online. At 10:53 p.m., the Dallas Police Department posted a Twitter message announcing that 10 officers had been shot during a protest rally, three of them fatally. Twenty minutes later, a second message said that a fourth officer had been killed. Then, after midnight, there was a third: “It has been a devastating night. We are sad to report a fifth officer has died.” By Friday afternoon, the full scope of the city’s losses was clear: At least two of the slain officers had served overseas in the military, only to die back home in Texas. A third had made his way to Dallas after working at a jail outside Detroit. A fourth was a large man — about 6-foot-5 — who had the semblance of a grizzly bear, according to a friend. The fifth was a standout on Dallas’s large, modern force: The local police association had named him the “Cops’ Cop” for February 2009. As condolences for the men poured in all day on Friday — from the governor to the secretary general of the United Nations — details of the officers’ lives started to emerge. “We’re hurting, our profession is hurting,” said David O. Brown, the Dallas police chief. 3 Brandon Stafford paid his respects on Friday at a police memorial outside the Dallas Police Department Headquarters. Credit Brandon Thibodeaux for The New York Times The first officer to be identified was Brent Thompson, 43, who worked for the police force of Dallas Area Rapid Transit, which operates trains and buses in the region. Mr. Thompson, the first DART officer to die in the line of duty, joined the transit force in 2009 and patrolled the northwestern section of the transit system, according to his LinkedIn page. Before Dallas, he worked for DynCorp International as a police liaison officer and helped train fellow officers in Afghanistan and Iraq. He had also been a police academy instructor in Corsicana, Tex., southeast of Dallas, where he attended high school. He started in law enforcement in the Navarro County sheriff’s office, where he was assigned to the county jail, said Leslie A. Cotten Sr., the former sheriff. But like most young officers, Mr. Cotten said, “he wanted to get out on patrol and ride around in a patrol car and do a different job.” 4 Family members, writing on Facebook, were the first to publicly identify Mr. Zamarripa, a seven-year veteran of the Dallas force who had spent time in the Navy and served tours in Iraq as a military policeman. His Navy records released on Friday showed that he enlisted in 2001 and had also been posted in Florida, Illinois, Texas, Virginia and Bahrain. When he finished his military service, Mr. Zamarripa, a fan of the Rangers and the Dallas Cowboys, returned to the Dallas area and joined the Police Department, said his uncle, Hector Zamarripa. He lived in the Fort Worth area with Ms. Villasenor and their 2-year-old daughter, Lyncoln. He also had a stepson, his uncle said. On Friday afternoon, the National Latino Law Enforcement Organization — Mr. Zamarripa was a member — held a somber lunch for grieving supporters. “A good kid, man, a good young kid,” said Sgt. George Aranda, who runs the organization. “He loved his job. I talked to his mom last night, and even his mom said this was Patrick’s dream. This is what he wanted to be, a police officer.” The day after a shooting that left five officers dead, Gov. Greg Abbott commended the work of the Dallas Police Department and Dallas Area Rapid Transit officers. By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS on Publish Date July 8, 2016.

Before moving to Dallas, Mr. Krol had served in the Wayne County, Mich., jail system from 2003 to 2007, said the county sheriff, Benny N. Napoleon. Two of Mr. Krol’s relatives declined to be interviewed on Friday. A fourth officer, Lorne Ahrens, was married to a Dallas police detective and regarded as a lawman devoted to the profession that he pursued in Dallas for more than a dozen years. “There are very few officers I’ve met who are more passionate about doing the job right than that man,” said Timothy S. Rodgers, a former prosecutor in Dallas County. “He was always calling me. He always had questions like, ‘What can I do better in this situation?’ ” Mr. Ahrens had worked in patrol and on property crimes. Mr. Rodgers recalled with a chuckle that his friend had a knack for finding criminals who would challenge him, despite his hefty size. The fifth slain officer was Michael J. Smith, who joined the Police Department in September 1989 after growing up in the southeastern corner of the state. In a publication acknowledging his Cops’ Cop award, the Police Association said that Mr. Smith held an array of posts: in personnel, on patrol and at the airport. The publication also said he had been injured on duty years ago when a gang member “lunged at his partner with an unknown object in his hand.” At a news conference on Friday morning, Mayor Mike Rawlings stood beside Chief Brown and said: “To say that our police officers put their lives on the line every day is no hyperbole, ladies and gentlemen. It’s a reality.” A few hours earlier, the department had posted yet another Twitter message: “Thank you to the members of our community for your show of support during this difficult time.” Alan Blinder reported from Dallas, and Alan Feuer from New York.

Thank you. -----------------------------Thomas Beilein Chairman NYS Commission of Correction Albany NY 518-485-2330 -----------------------------Hi Thomas, Here are our two policies from Broomfield, CO. We are a 224 bed Direct Supervision Facility. The directives cover what I expect my staff to be looking for. Otherwise, we conduct 30 minute checks on our Work Release and all General Population Inmates. 15 minute checks on our Ad Seg and Intake Inmates. Lastly we conduct 15 min or in some cases 5 minute checks for suicidal inmates.

Dear Richard, The events of the last couple of days involving our law enforcement brothers and sisters are tragic, as well as a reminder of the difficult and dangerous job our community performs each day to keep our citizens safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of the officers who died and those who were wounded in the attack in Dallas last night. Words alone cannot express the sorrow and hurt we all feel for the attack on those who serve in law enforcement. We join with others in the law enforcement community in a call for calm as we work toward finding lasting solutions for law and order in this country. Thank you for your service.

Smith To Dallas: Our Hearts Are Breaking Here's a message that Tom Dominguez, president of the Association of Orange County Deputy Sheriffs in California sent out about the tragic situation in Dallas. He asked if we would send it to everyone on our email list. If your agency would like to send a similar message directly to all the officers with the Dallas Police Dept. please send it to me and I will make sure they receive your message. I will post your message on our website and perhaps in the pages of American Police Beat. - Cynthia Brown, Publisher American Police Beat To Dallas: Our Hearts Are Breaking Our hearts are collectively breaking as the tragedy at a protest over officer-involved shootings in Dallas continues to unfold. Four Dallas-area police officers were assassinated at the protest by at least one sniper and at least another seven officers had been shot, according to a statement released this evening by the Dallas Police Department. Several of the injured officers were in critical condition, according to department officials. The situation is extremely fluid and we have yet to learn of the totality of the casualties suffered. What we do know is these officers were killed and injured simply for the badge they pin over their hearts. They were doing their job – maintaining law and order and keeping their 12 community safe. In doing their jobs these true public servants laid down their own lives. We mourn the loss of our fellow officers and their surviving family members and pray for their loved ones and the people of Dallas as they struggle to understand. We urge you to stay extra vigilant during the coming days. Watch your back. Watch your partner’s back. Stay safe and keep Dallas in your prayers.

Patients sometimes wait months for state psychiatric beds to open, and failure to receive treatment can lead to drug  and alcohol abuse, emergency room visits, homelessness and increased incarceration rates.  The lack of adequate mental health care has cost the United States billions of dollars in lost income, according to leading  mental health organizations.  State psychiatric beds exist to primarily treat patients who cannot receive adequate and necessary treatment in a  community setting, such as group homes. Common patients for these beds include uninsured individuals or patients  who are deemed to be dangerous to themselves or others.  But state hospital psychiatric beds are also used by the criminal justice system for multiple purposes, and the center’s  researchers found that nearly half of the beds in the country are filled by patients who are awaiting trial or have already  been convicted of a crime.  State psychiatric beds can be filled by criminal defendants being “restored” to competency to stand trial, defendants  deemed to be “unrestorable” or convicted prisoners in need of intensive psychiatric care, among others.  Almost 47 percent of state hospital beds across the nation are dedicated solely to patients within the criminal justice  system. Part of the problem, according to the report’s researchers, is that community and outpatient facilities designed  to replace state psychiatric systems were simply never built. As the nation moved away from large, state‐run psychiatric  facilities, hundreds of thousands of beds were lost in the process.  The study’s recommendations include increasing the number of beds per 100,000 people to the range of 40 to 60,  especially in targeted areas. As well, the researchers recommend Congress to fund a “comprehensive review” of  Medicare and Medicaid regulations that they believe to be harmful to psychiatric treatment.  In June, U.S. Rep. Tim Murphy, R‐Pa., introduced a bill to the House of Representatives that would increase the number  of state psychiatric hospital beds. One aspect of HR 2646 would be to provide “additional psychiatric hospital beds for  those experiencing an acute mental health crisis and in need of short term immediate inpatient care for patient  stabilization.”  Other provisions in the bill include creations of a new position and committee to focus on mental health issues at the  federal level. The bill was unanimously voted out of the House Energy and Commerce Committee last month. It passed  the House on Wednesday. The measure now goes to the Senate for a vote.

Get a behind‐the‐bars look at prison system  By Renee Winkler    17 Even on a soft and sunny day, when irises were blooming en masse outside the stone walls of Eastern State Prison, a  visit to the historic site in Philadelphia's Fairmount neighborhood is glum.  The old walls are peeling light green and cream paint, the floors are cracked, some ceiling beams are exposed by  crumbling materials, and the wooden sliding doors to single‐occupant cells are imposing.  Yet the prison itself — built in a cherry orchard and nicknamed "Cherry Hill" — is a rainbow compared to the message  prison officials are putting forth in its newest exhibit.  The tale told in "Prisons Today: Questions in the Age of Mass Incarceration'' isn't a happy one and it doesn't foretell  improvement any time soon.  Included with admission, the exhibit highlights the fact that America has the highest rate of incarceration in the world.  Highest by far, as a result of mandatory minimum sentences and restrictions on parole for both drugs and weapons  offenses. Our nation's state and federal prisons — some run by for‐profit businesses — today hold 2.2 million people,  most of them American citizens.  Yet at the same time prisons have increased their numbers by almost 600 percent, the rate of violent crime remained  largely unchanged, according to research used in the exhibit.  Erected in a brick and concrete room that in an earlier time was a walled‐in work room and an open‐air exercise area,  the exhibit has several interactive stations, starting with a wall that asks visitors if they ever broke the law. It makes you  consider your life and whether you were touched by luck when you cheated on your taxes or drove too fast or while  under the influence of drugs or alcohol.  A group of 27 handwritten letters admitting crimes that did not lead to arrests is on display, with confessions that  range   from thefts from unlocked cars to smuggling a small amount of marijuana to a friend on death row.  Another station brings home the point that early circumstances — being born into a structured family, living among  relatives who have never been incarcerated, or with enough cash on hand to make bail if arrested — have a huge  influence on the possibility of incarceration.  Sean Kelley, senior vice president and director of interpretation and public programming at Eastern State Penitentiary,  said the concept behind the project was to focus on the high incarceration rate.  The first step was the erection of a gray‐and‐red metal structure that shows the increase in the imprisonment rate since  Eastern State closed in 1971. Listed on the ever‐rising metal towers are the per capita rates for imprisonment in 219  other countries.  “We're at the top, with 730 people imprisoned for every 100,000 in the population. We're at the top by a lot. Rwanda is  second, and their rate is 527,” said Kelley.  He adds that 70 percent of the people confronted by  the “have you broken the law” question since the exhibit opened  in the first week of May have answered "yes.''  Statistics posted inside the exhibit showcase another scary fact — one in nine of the people incarcerated in America  today is serving a life sentence.  A 10‐minute video at the entrance to the exhibit highlights brief comments from a number of America's former  presidents and newsmakers, beginning with Jesse Jackson's demand that America fight its war against drugs by attacking  the suppliers.  In another section, Barry Goldwater talks of illegal drugs as a “growing menace” in 1965 and a year later, New York state  sets a mandatory minimum sentence for drug convictions. Shown to the audience via a 1970‐era Magnavox television,  the video includes the iconic snip of a frying egg representing “your brain on drugs.”  There also are short videos of interviews with current inmates, and with a young girl living with a foster parent because  her father is in jail and her mother is unable to care for her.  Some attention is given to the aging prison population, especially since the need for nursing home and hospice care has  driven up the annual cost of caring for older inmates from $27,000 to $70,000.  A visit to Eastern State Prison is an adventure for individuals or for families with children over the middle‐school mark.  An audio tour, narrated by actor Steve Buscemi, makes it easy to wander through the open corridors and tour guides are  on hand to answer questions.  The former warden's office has been rehabbed to hold a spot to recharge cell phones and use free Wi‐Fi. It provides a  cooling‐off spot on hot summer days and a warming area when chill winds rip through the stone structure in the winter. Set up on the principle of isolation, with one person in each cell and no contact among inmates or even with guards, it  was one of the most expensive buildings in America. It also was one of the first to have flush toilets and electric lighting. 18 Kelley said the prison gets about 300,000 visitors each year and relies heavily on donations for its programs and  improvements. “We have no endowments. Former prisoners aren't inclined to donate money,” he said.    In comparison, the now‐closed federal prison at Alcatraz, off the coast of San Francisco, is visited by about 1.5 million  people each year.  Once the most famous and expensive prison in the world, Eastern State Penitentiary was known for its discipline and  architecture. It was designed to inspire prisoners to repent, or be penitent.  Designed for Pennsylvania inmates, it was planned for three decades and was open from 1829 until 1971, housing  prisoners convicted of state crimes. It banned corporal punishment of inmates and used isolation and labor to enforce  its principles. Inmates were barred from interacting with guards and were required to wear hoods whenever they were  outside their cells.  Each cell relied on a skylight for lighting and was equipped with running water and a flush toilet. The building is  surrounded by a 10‐foot‐high stone wall. The architect for the prison, British‐born John Haviland, who used Gothic  elements to intimidate prisoners, referred to it as “a forced monastery, a machine for reform.” British writer Charles  Dickens strongly disagreed with the benefits of solitary confinement, terming it “immeasurably worse than any torture.” While prison rules banned corporal punishment of inmates, those who were recalcitrant were restrained by straight  jackets and a device known as a “tranquility chair,” which held prisoners in place with chains, leather straps and locks.  They also were subjected to an iron gag, a 5‐inch long device that was fitted over the tongue.  Always a popular spot for tourists, Eastern State holds a frightening Halloween program, known as "Terror Behind the  Walls.''  Infamous residents of the prison included Morris “the Rabbi” Bolber, who entered the prison in 1942 to serve a life term  for participating in an arsenic murder ring in Philadelphia. Bolber's client list included women who wanted to murder  their husbands.  Joe Buzzard was the youngest of five brothers who were housed at Eastern State in the last 20 years of the 19th century.  He was imprisoned for horse theft, the most common crime of inmates.  Leo Callahan, one of 100 prisoners to escape, joined five other men to build a wooden ladder and climb over the prison  wall in 1923. He was not recaptured.  Alphonse “Scarface” Capone, Chicago's mob boss, served eight years at Eastern State  for carrying a concealed deadly  weapon. It was his first incarceration and Capone's cell, a highlight of the tour, was outfitted with fine furniture, a rug, a  lamp with beaded fringe, and a cabinet radio.  Freda Frost, the last female to be held at Eastern State, was sentenced to a 20‐year term for poisoning her husband. She  was transferred to Pennsylvania's Muncy Industrial Home for Women in 1923, when women were excluded from the  prison's population.  William Francis Sutton, another inmate highlighted on the audio tour, was convicted of more than 50 bank robberies  and netted about $2 million. In some of the robberies, he dressed as a police officer. Known as “Slick Willie,” he was one  of a dozen men who escaped through a tunnel at Eastern State in 1945. Quickly recaptured after that escape, he later  was able to break out of two other prisons before being released from a New York prison in 1980. Sutton died in Florida  in 1980 at 79. Sutton always denied responsibility for the famous quote that he had robbed banks “because that's where  the money is.” He did, however, tell reporters he robbed banks because it was fun.  Frederick Tenuto, who joined Sutton in the 1945 escape, was the last to be recaptured after that breakout. He was  transferred to Holmesburg State Prison and escaped from there in 1946. He was never recaptured.  Charles Yerkes served seven months in the 1870s at Eastern State for larceny. After his release he designed and financed

The Philadelphia Inquirer (07/07/2016)  http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20160707_Why_Philly_is_holding_kids_on__500_000_bail.html  Why Philly is holding kids on $500,000 bail  By Samantha Melamed   Though he had no record, and was 15 years old, he was charged in adult court.  Bail was set at $75,000. The required 10 percent of that, $7,500, was more than the teen or his mother could fathom.    So, in January 2015, Eugene Lee was sent to an adult jail, Philadelphia Industrial Correctional Center. It was three  months before his mother, Wylicia Clark, 35, of the city's Frankford section, could get the bail reduced to an amount she  could pay.  The charges involved an attempted robbery with a BB gun, in which no one was shot and Eugene was not the gunman. It  was botched when the victim, an older man, convinced the teens he had a gun himself, and scared them away.  Eugene is home now, and his case has been moved to juvenile court. But he's not the same.  "It did something to him," said Clark, adding that her son's case is ongoing. "He still doesn't sleep at night. He doesn't  trust anybody. He's in school, but he's very wary about talking to people in school. He doesn't even want to go outside." While there is no such thing as money bail for kids in Pennsylvania's juvenile‐justice system, for kids the same age, 15 to  17, in the adult criminal justice system, it's a radically different story.  Not only are they virtually always held on money bail (as opposed to released on some other condition, such as house  arrest), but their bail amounts are often set extremely high. The average bail assigned in 2016 was $248,000, far outside  bail guidelines the courts established in 2012, which recommend bail between $9,000 and $75,000 for the highest‐risk  offenders charged with the most serious of crimes.  At a time when the city is embarking on a $6.1 million effort in partnership with the MacArthur Foundation to reduce its  jail population by one‐third, these bail amounts mean almost all juveniles will be locked up for months or years before  ever being convicted of a crime.  Out of 46 juveniles charged as adults this year in Philadelphia, 34 had their bail set at least twice as high as the maximum  suggested by the court's own bail guidelines. Nine had bail of $500,000 or more. Only four were able to post bail. (Of the  seven teens whose bail was set within guidelines, five cases were either quickly withdrawn or moved to juvenile court.)  Studies have found that youth, like adults, are more likely to plead or be found guilty if they're detained, and are more  likely to commit crimes in the future. They suffer from increased mental‐health issues, including depression and  impulses to harm themselves. A Department of Education study found 59 percent of incarcerated youth in remedial  programs either didn't return to school after their release or dropped out after five months.  Philadelphia's deputy managing director for criminal justice, Benjamin Lerner, presided over these cases for 15 years as a  Common Pleas Court judge. He said he was often outraged by the bail amounts set by commissioners, who determine  release conditions by video conference in a security‐glass‐enclosed courtroom in the basement of the Criminal Justice  Center.    "I was yelling and screaming about this from the bench on many occasions," he said. "Not only was the bail set for these  juveniles way above the guidelines, but it bore no reasonable relationship to what they were actually charged with  doing."  For example, he mentioned cases like Eugene's, where a juvenile was charged in a gunpoint robbery but wasn't the one  with the weapon. "Often, the bail was set for th juvenile defendant not only as if they had the weapon, but as if they had  used the weapon."  In the juvenile‐justice system, defendants are locked up if they pose a danger to themselves or others, if there is no one  to care for them, or if they're likely to abscond. Otherwise, they are released. But a Pennsylvania law dating to 1995 calls  for teens 15 to 17 charged with certain violent crimes to be sent directly to adult court.  20 Lerner said there were, at times, cases where he thought it unsafe to release a juvenile. But others didn't pose a threat.  None posed a real flight risk, he said: "They aren't going very far if they don't show up. It's annoying and time‐ consuming, occasionally even dangerous, to go out and find them, but they can be found, and they always are."  Still, Angel Flores, deputy of the juvenile division at the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office, said his team routinely  seeks high bail in such cases. He said it's a public‐safety issue, underscored by the very same neuroscience that has  driven the U.S. Supreme Court to ban the harshest sentences for juveniles, citing "their immaturity, recklessness, and  impetuosity."  "You hear the argument all the time about how juveniles are much more impulsive and less concerned about  consequences," Flores said. "So you can imagine a young person, a juvenile, who's alleged to have committed an offense  with a deadly weapon. That's more concerning than someone who may be a little older and think a little more about  what they're going to do with that weapon."  The Constitution's Eighth Amendment bans "excessive bail," and Pennsylvania law says: "No condition of release,  whether nonmonetary or monetary, should ever be imposed for the sole purpose of ensuring that a defendant remains  incarcerated until trial."  A judge can deny bail in Pennsylvania if public safety is deemed endangered but must state on the record the reasons  for that determination. Setting high bail could circumvent that requirement.  So, for juveniles, "it feels like the default is to be in [jail]," said Lauren Fine, cofounder of the Youth Sentencing and  Reentry Project, which advocates for youth in the adult system. "I think the system views these kids differently from  every other group ‐ that they're the worst of the worst. We're beyond the idea of 'the superpredator,' but there's still  the thinking that these are really bad kids and we're going to treat them that way."  She said it usually takes at least three months to have a bail‐reduction hearing; many of her juvenile clients have been  locked up three years pretrial.    Lerner hopes the MacArthur grant work will address questions like "whether or not amounts of money, or money bail in  general, really have anything to do with either a defendant's risk to the community or a defendant's risk of flight." The  city's plan includes early bail review for nonviolent cases where bail is set below $50,000; more thorough legal  representation at bail hearings; and the creation of a risk‐assessment tool for setting bail.  An April Columbia University study, which analyzed cases in Philadelphia from 2005 to 2010, underscored what impacts  of bail are known: Imposing money bail made it 6 percent more likely a defendant would plead guilty, and 4 percent  more likely that he or she would re‐offend.  That effect includes even small bail amounts. Sarah Morris, who works with youth in the adult system through the  nonprofit Youth Art and Self‐Empowerment Project, said she's seen cases dismissed or withdrawn after teens spent  months in jail. By then, she said, "their life is disrupted, and many more obstacles exist for them. I've known a lot of  young people who had trouble getting their credits to transfer when they came home." Some dropped out of school as a  result.  In Philadelphia, those teens are held in adult jail on State Road. Some other counties in Pennsylvania keep juveniles  charged as adults in juvenile jails, Fine said.  That might have been helpful for Eugene.  Even after his bail was reduced, for the second time, to $4,000, his mother had to scramble to raise 10 percent, or $400.  The residential aide, who has six children, borrowed some of it from her brother.  She was relieved to get her son home, but noticed he can't seem to concentrate in school. He'd like to drop out, maybe  be homeschooled instead.  He still dreams of being a lawyer or a counselor, so he can help people.  But first, Clark said, "we got to get over the fear."  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20160707_Should_South_Jersey_corrections_officers_enforce_federal_immigratio n_laws__ACLU_says_no.html  Should South Jersey corrections officers enforce federal immigration laws? ACLU says no  By Michael Boren  A South Jersey jail's corrections officers could soon be able to question detainees about their residency status,  regardless of the crime they committed, and process them for immigration violations.  The possibility of this new role has sparked concern from the American Civil Liberties Union, which says the move could  stoke fear and distrust between authorities and communities in Salem County, where nearly 16,000 of the 64,000  residents are minorities. The county is 45 miles southwest of Philadelphia.  The ACLU has urged the county's correctional facility not to participate in the U.S. Immigration and Customs  Enforcement's 287(g) program, which offers local law enforcement agencies powers similar to those of federal  immigration agents. Thirty‐two agencies across the U.S. use the program, including two in North Jersey, according to  federal officials.  Advocates say the program targets immigrants with violent histories who are here illegally, not others. In the last two  years at Hudson County's Correctional Center, fewer than 1 percent of people detained and taken there by Immigration  and Customs Enforcement officials ‐ 64 of 8,000 ‐ have been identified as violent offenders who should be targeted for  deportation, county spokesman Jim Kennelly said. The others were given due process in court, he said.  Critics say the program unfairly targets Latino communities. They point to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office in  Arizona, which used the program until 2011, when the U.S. Justice Department discovered the office was racially  profiling Latinos through unlawful stops and detentions.  "Voluntarily applying for a 287(g) contr tract sends the message that deportation is a potential consequence of any  interaction with law enforcement," the ACLU and other immigrants‐rights groups said in a letter addressed Tuesday to  Salem County officials, including jail warden Ray Skradzinski.  Skradzinski said in an interview that his facility had operated since February as a temporary holding place for individuals  detained by federal immigration agents. Six such suspects have entered the jail in that period, he said.  They typically stay less than 72 hours in the inmate‐intake unit, outside the general population of nearly 400 inmates,  before heading to a more permanent facility or a deportation hearing.  Skradzinski said he wants to use the federal program to teach up to five of his 146 correctional officers how to handle  immigration issues. The program could allow those officers to fingerprint, photograph, and process inmates for  immigration violations, in addition to other criminal charges. It could also give the officers access to a federal database  to flag violent criminals.  Skradzinski said the officers would not try to track down undocumented immigrants not already in custody.  "We have no intention of going out on the streets and patrolling to enforce immigration laws," he said.  The Immigration and Customs Enforcement's program requires local corrections officers to complete four weeks of  training on immigration and civil rights laws. The officers must be U.S. citizens, have at least one year's experience on  their job, and have no pending disciplinary actions.  Skradzinski said he was waiting to hear from the federal agency whether the application for the program was approved.  He said he would put up to five officers through training.  In addition to the Hudson County's Correctional Center, the Monmouth County Sheriff's Office also uses the program. Its  agreement expired June 30, but a spokeswoman said the office planned to renew it.  22 In Hudson County, where immigrant advocate groups have loudly criticized the program, officials are debating whether  to stick with it.  Kennelly, the county spokesman, said the arguments go beyond identifying individuals as illegal immigrants.  "The issue is larger, and that issue is: What is the appropriate role for federal immigration officials and local law  enforcement?" he said, adding, "And that is a decision, a balancing act."  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    New York Times (07/06/2016)  http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/07/nyregion/ramadan‐for‐muslim‐inmates‐mixing‐religious‐duty‐with‐prisons‐ limits.html?_r=0  By Samantha Schmidt  OSSINING, N.Y. — As they heard the beginning of the 8:30 p.m. call to prayer on Tuesday, the Muslim men took their  first sips of water of the day, breaking the Ramadan fast for the last time this year.  They passed around apples, chips and juice, their bodies aching for food but their minds reminding them that first, they  must pray. The men filed into the white‐walled mosque, joining more than 100 others facing east, their arms crossed  and their heads bowed.  “Allahu akbar,” the imam called from the front of the two‐tiered room.  Some of the men wore knit kufi caps, and almost all were clothed in green uniforms,signifying their status as inmates at  Sing Sing Correctional Facility here in Westchester County. Sing Sing, a maximum‐security prison, holds more than 1,600  inmates, including many convicted of crimes like murder and manslaughter.  The prison’s imam, Jon Young, said that 80 percent of the Muslim inmates in Sing Sing had converted to Islam after  entering prison.  “Islam has discipline that they didn’t have before,” Mr. Young said. “They have a real sense of brotherhood. They protect  each other.”  But being a Muslim behind bars has its complications. Those incarcerated, like Muslims in the general public, may face a  lack of understanding, discrimination or indifference. This friction can be heightened during the holy month of Ramadan,  when religious obligations require complicated changes to rigid prison schedules.  Across the state, 5,842 inmates, or about 11 percent of the total prison population, are Muslim. During Ramadan, these  inmates are entitled by federal law to fulfill their religious obligations, including eating only between sundown and  sunrise, showering once a day and praying five times a day.  New York prisons follow a detailed, systemwide directive that requires delivery of Ramadan meals at appropriate times  and that dictates other accommodations for those observing the holy month. Sing Sing in particular is known by Muslim  inmates in the state as having the best programs pertaining to Islam.  Because Sing Sing has its own mosque and offers daily prayer services and classes on Islam, Dontey Middleton, 32,  requested that he be transferred here about two years ago.  “Up north, in other spots, it’s always scrutinized by the police,” Mr. Middleton said of prayer in group settings. “Being  down here, we have the liberty to, every day, study our religion and pray.”  But even in states like New York that have detailed provisions for religious accommodations, some inmates in prisons  and jails report lapses during Ramadan.  At Auburn Correctional Facility, a number of Muslim inmates complained that when the prison was in a lockdown in  2013, they were denied Ramadan meals and access to communal prayer. At Attica Correctional Facility, an inmate  complained that he had been denied showers nine times during Ramadan in 2012, apparently for no reason.    “It does seem to come up every year,” said William Burgess, a senior staff attorney at the Council on American‐Islamic  Relations. Often, these “hiccups,” as Mr. Burgess put it, may occur in smaller jails or as a result of staff turnover.  In 2005, Darryl Holland filed a lawsuit pertaining to his time at Wende Correctional Facility. During Ramadan in 2003,  corrections officers instructed Mr. Holland to drink water so they could collect a urine sample. Because he was fasting,  he refused to drink and asked to give the sample after sundown instead. For his refusal, he was placed in an isolation cell  for 77 days.  After Mr. Holland sued, New York prisons changed their policy in 2012, allowing Muslim prisoners who are fasting to  give urine samples after sunset.  23 Muslim inmates at Sing Sing described less‐accommodating experiences at other prisons, some of which do not have  Friday prayer services and regular Islamic education classes. Mr. Middleton said at some prisons, he was allowed to take  only three showers a week during Ramadan.  Michael Tineo, a 33‐year‐old inmate at Sing Sing, said that while he was at Elmira Correctional Facility, he was running  late for Ramadan dinner in the mess hall one night. He said a corrections officer refused to escort him to the mess hall,  telling him: “That’s too bad. Deal with it.”  In a statement in response to the recent lawsuits, Thomas Mailey, a spokesman for the New York State Department of  Corrections and Community Supervision, said the department “has been and remains committed to ensuring the free  exercise of religion by the inmates housed within each of its facilities.”  At Sing Sing, the Ramadan program and meals are so well organized that even non‐Muslims ask to partake, Mr. Tineo  said. The prison houses 250 registered Muslims, all of whom are given a meal after sundown and a bag for suhur, a meal  eaten before sunrise. Even 60 Muslim inmates in isolation are fed meals after sundown.  Each year, the inmates organize a fund‐raiser, selling essential oils to fellow inmates through the commissary. They use  half of the revenue to supplement Ramadan meals and to subsidize religious festivals. They also give part of the money  to other religious and academic programs at Sing Sing — fulfilling a Ramadan obligation of donating to charity.  During an evening class before the breaking of the fast on Tuesday, Mr. Young, the imam, taught a lesson on the  prophet Yusuf, or Joseph, who spent many years in prison but came out as an honest man.  “People should know you for your character as a Muslim,” Mr. Young said, urging the members of the class to be honest  and forgiving.  He then showed the class a video of thousands of Muslims on the hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, a trip  that many inmates dream of someday making.    “You’ve got to give them something to aspire to” after getting out, Mr. Young said. “A lot of these guys haven’t been out  of New York.”  Many Muslim inmates at Sing Sing said their families had noticed a change in their behavior since their conversion: They  curse less, they pray more, and they have a more positive outlook.  Ivan Seabrooks, 41, has been in prison for about 13 years, and he converted to Islam six years ago. Before his  conversion, he never thought he would go back to school. But last year, he earned his associate degree, and he hopes to  complete his bachelor’s degree this year.  “Turning Muslim changed my whole perspective,” Mr. Seabrooks said. “I was an angry guy. It teaches you patience.”  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    World Socialist Web Site (07/07/2016)  https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2016/07/07/feed‐j07.html  Wisconsin Department of Corrections force‐feeds hunger strikers  By Gary Joad   On June 17, state’s attorney Gloria Thomas, on behalf of the Wisconsin Department of Corrections and DOC secretary  Jon Litscher, petitioned Dodge County Circuit Court Judge Brian Pfitzinger to permit the force‐feeding of inmates at  Waupun, Columbia, Green Bay and other state prisons, where some half dozen men or more initiated a hunger strike on  or about June 5th.  Pfitzinger granted the petition and ordered the “temporary” forced nasogastric tube hydration and feeding for at least  two of the strikers, Cesar DeLeon and LaRon McKinley Bey. The six known participants in the hunger strike include  DeLeon, McKinley Bey, Joshua Scolman, Parish Golden, Lamar Larry, and Shirell Watkins.  The prisoners have titled their hunger strike “Dying to Live Humanitarian Food Refusal Campaign Against Torture,”  aware as they are of the US Constitution’s 8th Amendment which prohibits cruel and unusual punishment.  For years, prisoners have protested the DOC’s policy of placing them in solitary confinement for extended periods.  McKinley Bey has informed media outlets and courts that his time in uninterrupted solitary at Waupun state prison  exceeds a quarter century.  Multiple media sources report that approximately 100 Wisconsin inmates are living now in long term solitary. UN  officials have declared that any time in solitary over 15 days constitutes torture.  24 Inmates held in the “hole” and in the general population have also reported beatings by sadistic guards, confinement in  cold cells for many weeks with scant or no clothing, the provision of contaminated drinking water and rotten food,  receiving poor or no treatment for medical and mental needs, and never being allowed outside.  The prisoners also report that punishment is meted out for their exposing these prison practices to their families, the  courts, the media and prison advocacy groups. Prison wardens and staffs have been sued many times by the inmates  and their families, to no avail, given the consistent protection prison officials receive from the state.  Judge Pfitzinger received a petition authored by Dr. Jeffery Manlove, the Waupun prison consulting physician, on June  17, which stated, “He (DeLeon) is showing signs of significant dehydration. He appears weak, gaunt, and has an unsteady  gait. His mucous membranes are very dry. He has a rapid heart rate of 132. His lab tests results are consistent with  dehydration and metabolic acidosis.”  In his report, Dr. Manlove also noted that DeLeon’s weight had fallen from 206 pounds to 186 pounds between January  and June. Judge Pfitzinger then ordered the force‐feedings.  After Pfitzinger issued the order DeLeon wrote a reply to the court, which reveals, among other things, the undoubted  and legitimate legal and “ethical” anxiety felt by prison medical staff.  He wrote, “The prison doctor from Waupun submitted some exaggerated report about me been (sic) in immediate  danger and so forth. I’m here to tell you that Waupun officials are trying to dupe you into beliving (sic) this lie to stop me  and other inmates from continuing our ‘religious fasting’ because we been making the news for the past 10 days.”  The reply continued, “The same doctor...came to my cell a day before and wisper (sic)...that the warden...was putting  pressure on him to declare us being in immediate danger because the DOC secretary was calling...him (the warden)...to  do whatever it takes to stop us. He, the doctor, ask me to eat or else he was going to have to go with what the warden  ask him to do.”  DeLeon and McKinley Bey appeared before Dodge Circuit Court Judge Steven Bauer on June 30th to oppose being force‐ fed, reminding the court of their 8th Amendment rights. DeLeon asked that the court view a video of his being force‐fed  “for a punitive purpose, not medical,” a recording that he submitted in a motion. Judge Bauer told DeLeon that he had  not received the video, and agreed to schedule a follow‐up hearing for viewing; meanwhile, forced feedings would  continue.  The DOC attorney Thomas flippantly dismissed DeLeon’s assertions of abuse, saying, “If there is an implication of an 8th  Amendment violation then that is up to the court.”  McKinley Bey told Judge Bauer the same day, “I am refusing to eat and drink for political reasons and to protect myself. I  am going to refuse to eat and drink as long as they mistreat me. I have suffered all kinds of medical conditions. I am  doing this to protest long‐term solitary confinement.”  He reported that he is in his cell 164 of 168 hours in a week, all told for 27 1/2 years. He added in court, “I’m prepared to go long‐term with this.” Judge Bauer responded by issuing a “permanent” order for McKinley Bey’s nasogastric tube  feeding, effective until December 29, 2016.  McKinley Bey reported that force‐feeding is conducted by strapping inmates into a “restraint” chair. A guard inserts the  nasogastric tube into the nose and down the throat while another guard films the event.  Norman C. Green, also known as Prince Aturn‐Ra Uhuru Mutawakki, formerly incarcerated at Waupun but moved to  Columbia state prison in Portage, Wisconsin in an effort by DOC authorities to break the strike, is also being force‐fed.  He reports having lived in the “hole” for 18 years.  Prison authorities also began an attempt at the forced feeding of Joshua Scolman, the exact date unknown, but because  of an apparent deviated septum (a crooked mid nose bone and cartilage) attempts to place the tube caused bleeding at  the prison that could not be stopped. Scolman was then taken to an area hospital for treatment and IV therapies. One  unconfirmed source reported that the DOC considered forcing Scolman to undergo a surgical tube placement through  the abdominal wall directly into the stomach, to circumvent the nasal issue.  In April of this year, a Waupun inmate named Robert Tatum went on a hunger strike for 14 days after filing a suit against  the DOC for abuse by the guards, a litigation that went nowhere. He quit the strike when threatened with tube feedings,  after which the guards force fed him anyway. In a revealing statement, the DOC communications director Tristan Cook  declared that Waupun was following DOC‐approved procedures.  Correct nasogastric tube placement in the stomach, especially repeatedly, forcibly, or by hostile amateurs, let alone by  trained professionals, is not considered by the medical profession as being risk‐free or entirely benign. And it is certainly  understood to be exceptionally painful.  25 Complications include nasal, throat and esophageal irritation, bleeding and membrane tearing, as well as the risk of  infusing nutrient fluids into the human airway, causing either pneumonia and/or asphyxiation. With force‐feeding, lungs  have also been punctured with resulting lung collapse, a life‐threatening and surgical emergency.  In October 2015 the American Medical Association’s Journal of Ethics and J. Wesley Boyd of Harvard Medical School  stated unambiguously that “force‐feeding prisoners is wrong” in a review of this dangerous and barbaric practice.  Dr. Boyd noted in his article that the Israeli government authorized the force‐feeding of hunger striking Palestinian  prisoners last year, and, wanting to obtain the collaboration of medical professionals, the Israeli Public Security minister  attempted to portray the fasting prisoners as “suicide terrorists.” The Israeli Medical Association would have none of it  and informed the government that if it enacted such practices the Medical Association would request its member  physicians refuse to participate.  Moreover, the World Medical Association, founded in the wake of WWII, updated its recommendations for prisoner  treatment in the so‐called Malta revisions of 2006. The revisions explicitly forbid force‐feeding, which the group likened  to “inhuman and degrading treatment,” that is “never ethically acceptable.” The medical associations of over 80  countries adhere to WMA guidance. The WMA also pointed out that hunger strikers are not suicidal, “but are a last  resort way of expressing protest or dissent in situations of coercion.”

The GTL User Group Training Sessions are two and a half days of intense training and hands-on experience with all the products GTL has to offer:  General Sessions: Where you learn about where GTL is heading in the future – you can literally be at the forefront of the innovation, poised to leap forward with us.  Product Sessions: Where you can learn about new technology. Want to know if a new solution will work for you? This is a great place to find out.  Training Sessions: Where you get detailed instructions on how to use your products to their fullest potential. You pick the sessions that are right for you and your facility.  Networking: There are also opportunities to talk to the sales team, senior level GTL executives, and the product developers themselves. Find out the answers to your questions right from the people most able to help you. As if all of that training, influencing and hands-on experience wasn’t enough, there is more… attending the GTL User Group Training Session is FREE. All of the training, all of the time with new products and interacting with staff and other GTL customers – it’s FREE. Plus, we provide you with breakfast each morning and lunch both full days of the conference AND an evening event Wednesday night with food and drink so you can meet other corrections customers. All of that – FREE. 4 You are only responsible for your travel and lodging expenses. We’ve helped there too. That’s because GTL has negotiated a heavily discounted rate for you at the conference hotel, the Renaissance in Downtown Nashville. This incredible location has expansive views of the city and is only two blocks from the famed musical venues in downtown Nashville. The hotel is only a 15-minute drive from the airport, so transportation is very affordable and there is a lot to do within a short walk from the hotel. Now that you’re ready to sign up, visit the User Group web page for all the details on the event, or to book your room. You can also download the official invitation and planning guide, which makes it easy to provide the details on the event to the decision makers in your organization.

Smith American Jail Association July Spotlight 1 AMERICAN ASSOCIATION CORRECTIONS SOFTWARE TO KEEP THE PUBLIC SAFE With over 2GB customers using [Location Based Eervices] and over EDD customers using [Inmate Inter-communication Evaluation and Reporting} system [a free service with Securusi, these two technologies are the most rapidly used software products across corrections agencies in the United States. . Without LBS, 1you have no way to know ifan inmate makes a call to someone standing outside your Agency perimecer. With LBS. you'll know. Without ICER, you won't know how much inmates are calling each other, within your agency or with inmates from other agencies. With ICER. you'll know. Fact: 80% or more calls made fromjails are being answered by someone with a cell phone. l[ell phone usage by called parties has increased the security threat in three distinct and powerful ways: i. Cell phones [prepaidrburner phones: mask the identity of the called party 2. Cell phones hide the location of where the called party is at the time of call 3. Cell phones can be used to bridge calls, or setup inmate-to-inmate communication acrivity Securus has invested in two products, LBS and ICER, to directiy provide actionable intelligence on these types of calls. No other provider can bring these two solutions to market, as Securus already has. WHAT LBS IS AND WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU LBS maps the approximate location of calls made to called parties by inmates. Therefore, these locations can be geographically seen when investigating who the inmate called and now determine WHERE the calledparty was, during the call. In fact, Securus' Secure {all Platform tells you where the called party answered the call and where the called party was at the time they ended the call. Many investigators want to ltnow when inmates call areas of interest and who is in that area of interest. LBS allows you to serup "geo-fences" or locations of interest so you know when an inmate calls that area. LBS- now ties inmate calls to locations. L85 provides noti?cations to investigators immediately upon calls answered within your geo-fence. These noti?cations can patch you directly into the call so you can silently monitor the call in progress. The number one geo-fence for all corrections agenices should be to create a geo fence around their location. This will tell you when you have a called party answering a call who is standing outside the perimeter. what fn nll?l- fnr- hIrI n+hnr nrnuirInr H.14- I-nrrInInPnl RE.

I'd like to invite one or more of our county judges to appear as a guest on our new weekly political segment, which runs Wednesdays at 8 AM. Ideally, we'd do this live, but it could also be recorded.

We pay based on how many channels we wish to have access to and currently we have access to 15 channels. We allow the local broadcast channels - FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS and 3 other local channels that are Spanish, ESPN, the Weather channel, FOX news, CNN, Discovery and the History channels. The remaining channel is used to broadcast our inmates rules in English and in Spanish, the PREA information, commissary information, and inmate phone information. This seems to be the most cost effective way for us to provide television services to our inmates. As like some of the other agencies, the television access is considered a privilege and can be removed if the floor staff and the shift supervisor deems it necessary for the harmonious operation of the facility. -----------------------------Lori Kay Compton CJO Assistant Jail Administrator Kaufman County Sheriff's Office Kaufman TX 972-932-9721 -----------------------------Reply to Group Online View Thread Recommend Forward ------------------------------------------Original Message: Sent: 07-07-2016 14:21 From: Eric Kunath Subject: Television 6 We have a basic cable package with no ability to broadcast info to the entire jail at the same time.

Davis Friday, July 08, 2016 8:29 AM Wellness Tip July 8, 2016 5 Weird Signs That You’re Dehydrated      We’re all aware of the obvious signs of dehydration—yellow urine, feeling thirsty, and dry mouth—but  what about the less obvious ones, like acting strange?   Experts say they’re equally important, if not more so because they can be a sign that your dehydration has  progressed beyond normal levels like when you exercise vigorously without drinking enough water.     So, what are those less obvious signs of dehydration? Experts break them down:    1. You have bad breath.  This seems weird, but bear with us here. Saliva has bacteria‐fighting properties, Wider explains. If you’re  dehydrated, your saliva levels go down and so does your mouth’s ability to fight odor‐causing germs. If you  notice that you suddenly have bad breath for no reason, try drinking more water regularly. That alone may  clear it up.    2. You feel confused.  Feeling confused or out of it can be a sign of a few things. But if you haven’t had a lot to drink recently, it  can definitely be a tip‐off that you’re dehydrated, Vieder says. It’s usually not something that comes on  suddenly, unless you’re working up a sweat on a hot day, he adds.    3. You suddenly have food cravings.  Your liver needs water to function properly. When it doesn’t get it, it signals to your brain that you need  fuel, Wider says. Instead of craving water, though, it tends to make you think you’re hungry, causing food  cravings.    4. Your skin doesn’t bounce back.  4 If you grab the skin on the back of your hand, pull it up, and let it go, it should quickly snap back into place.  But this doesn’t usually happen with people who are dehydrated. “If it stays tented [or resumes its shape  more slowly than usual], that’s a really good sign of being dehydrated,” Vieder says. Without enough  moisture, your skin loses some of the elasticity it needs to snap back.     5. You stop sweating.  It seems like this would be a sign that you’re not dehydrated, but Anthony J. Brutico, D.O., medical director  of the Emergency Department at New Jersey’s Newton Medical Center, tells SELF it can be a marker that  you have heat exhaustion or heat stroke. This typically happens because your “volumes of fluid are so low  that the body is trying to hold on to what you have,” he explains. If this happens to you, you need to get  help immediately and see a doctor or other medical professional.  Same goes if people say you’re not acting like yourself, you feel like you’re going to faint, or you actually  have fainted. In those cases, Brutico recommends drinking liquid and heading to the ER to get evaluated.  You may have reached a point where you need IV fluids to get rehydrated.    Even if you’re only experiencing the less severe symptoms of dehydration, it’s time to get some liquids in  you ASAP. Vieder recommends having room‐temperature liquids (your body takes longer to absorb cold  fluids) and aiming to drink water or a sports drink with electrolytes. And take a pass on soda—Vieder says  it can potentially further dehydrate you. Need some help meeting your daily hydration goals? Here are 12  easy ways to drink more water.     (www.self.com)   Toni L.

Three possible suspects were in custody, and police were locked for several hours in a standoff with a gunman in a parking garage who had fired at officers, Dallas Police Chief David Brown said. The suspect told officials there were “bombs all over the place in this garage and downtown,” and “told our negotiators that the end is coming, and he’s going to hurt and kill more of us,” Brown said.

Simkins From: Sent: To: Subject: Krista Davis Thursday, July 07, 2016 5:31 PM Krista Davis Wellness Tip July 8, 2016   5 Weird Signs That You’re Dehydrated      We’re all aware of the obvious signs of dehydration—yellow urine, feeling thirsty, and dry mouth—but  what about the less obvious ones, like acting strange?   Experts say they’re equally important, if not more so because they can be a sign that your dehydration has  progressed beyond normal levels like when you exercise vigorously without drinking enough water.     So, what are those less obvious signs of dehydration? Experts break them down:    1. You have bad breath.  This seems weird, but bear with us here. Saliva has bacteria‐fighting properties, Wider explains. If you’re  dehydrated, your saliva levels go down and so does your mouth’s ability to fight odor‐causing germs. If you  notice that you suddenly have bad breath for no reason, try drinking more water regularly. That alone may  clear it up.    2. You feel confused.  Feeling confused or out of it can be a sign of a few things. But if you haven’t had a lot to drink recently, it  can definitely be a tip‐off that you’re dehydrated, Vieder says. It’s usually not something that comes on  suddenly, unless you’re working up a sweat on a hot day, he adds.    3. You suddenly have food cravings.  Your liver needs water to function properly. When it doesn’t get it, it signals to your brain that you need  fuel, Wider says. Instead of craving water, though, it tends to make you think you’re hungry, causing food  cravings.    5 4. Your skin doesn’t bounce back.  If you grab the skin on the back of your hand, pull it up, and let it go, it should quickly snap back into place.  But this doesn’t usually happen with people who are dehydrated. “If it stays tented [or resumes its shape  more slowly than usual], that’s a really good sign of being dehydrated,” Vieder says. Without enough  moisture, your skin loses some of the elasticity it needs to snap back.     5. You stop sweating.  It seems like this would be a sign that you’re not dehydrated, but Anthony J. Brutico, D.O., medical director  of the Emergency Department at New Jersey’s Newton Medical Center, tells SELF it can be a marker that  you have heat exhaustion or heat stroke. This typically happens because your “volumes of fluid are so low  that the body is trying to hold on to what you have,” he explains. If this happens to you, you need to get  help immediately and see a doctor or other medical professional.  Same goes if people say you’re not acting like yourself, you feel like you’re going to faint, or you actually  have fainted. In those cases, Brutico recommends drinking liquid and heading to the ER to get evaluated.  You may have reached a point where you need IV fluids to get rehydrated.    Even if you’re only experiencing the less severe symptoms of dehydration, it’s time to get some liquids in  you ASAP. Vieder recommends having room‐temperature liquids (your body takes longer to absorb cold  fluids) and aiming to drink water or a sports drink with electrolytes. And take a pass on soda—Vieder says  it can potentially further dehydrate you. Need some help meeting your daily hydration goals? Here are 12  easy ways to drink more water.     (www.self.com) Krista Davis Risk Manager & Wellness Coordinator  Centre County Government  P. 814‐548‐1055  F. 814‐548‐1157          This tip is solely for informational purposes. IT IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE. Centre County  Government is not making any recommendations regarding any treatment, procedure, exercise, dietary  modification, action or application of medication which results from reading or following the information  contained in the Wellness Tip emails. The publication of this information does not constitute the practice of  medicine, and this information does not replace the advice of your physician or other health care provider.  Before undertaking any course of treatment, diet or exercise program, the reader must seek the advice of  their physician or other health care provider.      6 Kristen M.

Reply to Group Reply to Sender Jul 7, 2016 3:01 PM Casey Meyer Hello AJA Members, My name is Casey Meyer, I am a National Sales Director for SkyPath Satellite Systems out of Grapevine, TX. Our organization has been a certified commercial dealer for DIRECTV since 1999. We currently service a handful of Jail/Corrections facilities around Texas, and are looking to expand further into the industry. Our Headend systems are the perfect solution for a secure, and easily restricted source of inmate entertainment.           Headend systems can come in SD Analog/Digital, or HD Digital. An in-house information channel can be added for event schedules, and general jail info. Inmates are allowed no control past changing the channel, and volume. Line-ups are restricted in number, allowing the facility to display a small amount of channels, typically 32-48. Channels within the system can be altered at the staffs will allowing only certain approved channels to be shown. You will have push-button control over the system, individual channels may be turned off, or if need be, the whole system may be shut down at the flick of a switch. All headend type systems are modular, allowing for more channels, or in-house programming to be added. One single headend, with one dish can run your entire property, and will need no wiring changes. Further expansion on your facility will be covered by the system without need for alteration. Any new wiring added to your distribution system will receive service. 24 Hour technical assistance is provided free of charge. 1 Our professional technicians are payed employees, not sub-contractors, and can pass background investigations in order to service your facilities. Detailed estimates can be given over email without the need for a technician to visit your site. If you would like more information, or a detailed estimate for your facility, please contact me via the info in my signature.

We do NOT allow any channels that may have local news due to the probability that a "high profile crime" news story will be broadcast and could put an inmate at risk if the news story is viewed by other inmates. The Jail Housing Unit Officers keep possession of the TV remote controls and change the channels if requested by inmates. Every day, at the beginning of each shift, the National Anthem is played, followed by PREA announcements in English and Spanish, and then TV viewing. TV viewing is considered a PRIVILEGE not a right and is allowed based on inmate behavior and cellblock cleanliness.

Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Villanova, Bloomsburg University and the Lehigh Carbon Community College will create the curriculum to educate prisoners selected for the grants under the new Second Chance Pell Grant pilot. Pennsylvania Department of Corrections Secretary John Wetzel thinks education can be the key to undoing the social conditions that led to incarceration. “When you look at who comes in our front door, you have to see the barriers to the success that led them to commit crime.” This particular program hopes to address the addiction, mental illness, lack of access to education and sustainable employment that often leads people to become incarcerated and fall into recidivism. “I don’t think it’s a silver bullet, but the research has been stunning in its success,” said Wetzel. He added that throughout the pilot, the state will be tracking program statistics. Ultimately these Pell Grants will relieve a burden on the taxpayer, Wetzel pointed out. He said it costs $42,000 a years to incarcerate one individual, not including the financial burden on social services like foster care and the juvenile criminal system. “The return on investment is an absolute no-brainer,” said Wetzel. Wetzel added the prison population is disproportionately composed of low-income and/or folks of color due to systemic racism and class inequality. He hopes this will be a step in undoing some of the damage inflicted before the prisoners were incarcerated. In addition to the liberal arts angle that IUP, Villa Nova and Bloomsburg offer, Wetzel was pleased to see the selection of a community college as they teach “practical, skills to be successful in their community.” “We’re all invested in people coming out of our prisons and being successful,” said Wetzel. --------------------------------------------------Pennsylvania State & County Corrections State Post-Gazette (07/07/2016) http://www.post-gazette.com/opinion/editorials/2016/07/07/Recidivism-antidote-Ex-consneed-a-seamless-path-back-to-Medicaid/stories/201607310016 Recidivism antidote: Ex-cons need a seamless path back to Medicaid By the Editorial Board A person released from a county jail or state prison faces no shortage of challenges readjusting to life in society. Accessing health care shouldn’t be one of them. The Legislature has recognized as much by passing a change to the state Human Services Code that would suspend, rather than terminate, Medicaid benefits while a person is incarcerated for up to two years. The change would make it easier to restart benefits when an offender is released. That translates into quicker access to psychiatric medications and other health care services that can help lower recidivism. Medicaid is a federal-state program that provides health care to the poor, which many inmates and prisoners are. Right now, those benefits are terminated during incarceration. Some offenders, but not all, get help applying or reapplying for Medicaid before they walk free. Jails and prisons also provide a certain amount of medication to keep released offenders going until benefits kick back in and they can go to doctors and pharmacies again. However, these arrangements are far from perfect. The state Department of Human Services needs more than a month to process a Medicaid application, and some recently released offenders exhaust their prison-supplied medications or encounter other health problems in the interim. Inmates at county jails, which have a rapid turnover in population and provide varying levels of re-entry assistance, are especially vulnerable. Offenders need stability — in health care, housing and employment — as quickly as possible if their return to society has any chance of success. A quicker resumption of Medicaid benefits after confinement — a change pushed through the Legislature by Republican Sen. Patricia Vance of Cumberland County — would help offenders make the most of their new start. Faster access to Medicaid rolls also would help the state leverage more federal dollars for offenders’ medications. Gov. Tom Wolf hasn’t signed the legislation but has said he supports the concept behind it. The state Department of Corrections and Department of Human Services had been working to streamline the re-entry process before the Legislature took up Ms. Vance’s bill. Some state prisons have DHS caseworkers to help with Medicaid paperwork, and corrections officials are working with the Department of Aging to expand the services available to newly released offenders. These are forward-thinking initiatives with important implications. Lower recidivism rates would be great news for Pennsylvania. --------------------------------------------------Philadelphia Inquirer (07/07/2016) http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20160707_After_37_years__inmate_pleads_for_end_ to_solitary_confinement.html After 37 years, inmate pleads for end to solitary confinement By Angela Couloumbis HARRISBURG - The question for convicted murderer Arthur Johnson seemed simple: Could he explain what his days are like, from the moment he wakes to the time he drifts off to sleep, in the 7-by-12-foot prison cell where he has spent nearly 37 years in solitary confinement? His response was an unstoppable, eight-minute soliloquy about despair and mistrust and lessons learned on the street, the words spilling from his mouth in a crush of thoughts as he tried to convince a federal judge on Wednesday that nearly four decades is enough time for any one person to spend alone. "Every single day, you do the exact same thing," Johnson told Judge Christopher C. Conner, chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, during a hearing that lasted nearly six hours. "You live by the rules, you follow the policy, and it doesn't mean anything. . . . It doesn't count." Johnson, 63, is serving life in prison without parole for the 1970 gang-related murder of Jerome Wakefield in Philadelphia. After several attempts at escape - during one, he allegedly bound a prison guard and locked him in a cell - he was placed in solitary In May, he sued the state Department of Corrections, alleging that he is a victim of cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Eighth and 14th Amendments to the Constitution. He is seeking a preliminary injunction to be released back into the general population at the State Correctional Institute at Frackville, so he can live out the remainder of his life. The Department of Corrections is fighting his motion, saying he remains at high risk for misbehavior and has signaled that he has not abandoned his plans to escape as soon as he gets another chance. Just in the last week, as Johnson was preparing to be transported to Harrisburg for the hearing, "he began to say his good-byes . . . and talked about prior escape attempts," Senior Deputy Attorney General Abbegael Giunta, whose office is representing the Corrections Department, told Conner on Wednesday. Giunta noted Johnson's level of fitness and his access to books, newspapers, a television, and a radio. She said Johnson's cell has a small window with a view to the outside; his cell door has another window through which he can see prisoners in the general population pass by. "He will not suffer irreparable harm if his injunction is denied," she said. Another hearing is scheduled for Aug. 11, during which the state will present its witnesses. Wednesday was Johnson's time. Led into the courtroom by eight Department of Corrections officers, Johnson shuffled to the witness stand with shackled feet, fumbling with the microphone for the first few minutes. At first, he spoke too far away from it to be heard, then too close to it for his voice to be anything but muffled. As he gave testimony, he kept knocking it with his hand. Under questioning from his attorneys, Johnson said he spends 23 hours each day in his cell. He is allowed outside in the prison yard for an hour Monday through Friday, but only in a small, caged-in area. He is allowed showers three times a week, and he is led there in handcuffs, with a towel wrapped around him. Before Wednesday, when he walked into the courtroom and shook the hand of one of his attorneys, he said he had not touched another human being in any meaningful way for nearly 37 years. Johnson's legal team includes lawyers from the Jones Day law firm in Pittsburgh; Bret Grote from the Abolitionist Law Center; and Jules Lobel, a professor of law at the University of Pittsburgh. Craig Haney, a psychology professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who has researched the impact of long-term solitary confinement, testified Wednesday that social contact is a basic human need. Solitary confinement, especially prolonged, "is painful. It's a stressful environment." Johnson, he said, "has struggled to maintain his sanity." Sitting quietly in the courtroom Wednesday was Julie Burnett, Johnson's first cousin. She said she was 4 years old when Johnson went to prison. Seated next to her were two of Johnson's adult grandchildren, who Burnett said Johnson had never seen - and might not recognize. As he was led out of the courtroom at the end of Wednesday's hearing, Johnson glanced their way. He nodded his head, then shuffled off. --------------------------------------------------- Lancaster Online (07/06/2016) http://lancasteronline.com/news/local/lancaster-man-too-late-in-request-for-relief-fromlife/article_5fafea84-4388-11e6-9404-1768e904ddb4.html Lancaster man too late in request from relief from life sentence By Lindsey Blest A Lancaster man's request for relief 31 years into his life sentence has been denied by a Pennsylvania court. Garey Thomas, now 68, was convicted of first-degree murder after shooting Ricky Coward at King and Plum streets in 1984. Coward was seated on a bicycle when Thomas approached and shot him in the chest just after midnight on June 27. A criminal complaint filed by a Lancaster city police detective described the shooting as "a planned act" and "done intentionally with premeditation." Thomas received a life sentence in 1985. He filed a petition for relief last year, based on a 2013 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that deemed certain mandatory sentences unconstitutional. If the petition had been accepted, Thomas would have been eligible for a new trial and potentially a different sentence. A Lancaster County judge denied his petition in December. Thomas then filed with the state Superior Court, which also denied him relief. Thomas' petition was too late, according to Assistant District Attorney Julie Slabinski. The five-page opinion by the Superior Court states challenges after the 2013 U.S. Supreme Court ruling had to be filed within 60 days of that ruling. Thomas filed nearly two years later, the opinion states. Also, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling doesn't apply to sentences that are final and not on active appeal at the time of the ruling. Thomas is being held at the state prison in Graterford, Montgomery County. According to newspaper records, Coward was 31 at the time of the shooting. A report published on March 15, 1985 stated the men had been at odds since 1982 when Thomas began living with Coward's wife. The shooting was the culmination of their differences. Previously, Thomas had been arrested several times. In 1972, he escaped from Lancaster County Prison while serving 11 to 23 months for aggravated assault. He was recaptured and charged with prison breach, but the case ended in a mistrial. --------------------------------------------------- Evening Sun (07/06/2016) http://www.eveningsun.com/story/opinion/readers/2016/07/06/war-drugs-failing-manyfronts-column/86745108/ The ‘War on Drugs’ is failing on many fronts By Jeff Morret (inmate at SCI Laurel Highlands) For far too long we have viewed our nation’s drug problem through the lens of the criminal justice system, creating grave costs to taxpayers. The United States has been fighting our “War on Drugs” for five decades. Reaching victory in this war is hopeless. Five decades, and we are more distant from victory than the day we started. There has to be a reason for this. Unknown to many is the fact that the prison system has become one of our nation’s biggest industries. The government’s war has failed to stop the supply. Their new strategy now is trying to arrest and incarcerate their way out of it. Another failure. We’ve ended up with prisons full of people who cannot function when they get out. We end up with people’s lives being shattered. Law enforcement, by now, has to recognize they “will never” be able to arrest and incarcerate their way out of this. Curbing and disrupting the supply with harsh punishments will do little to no good as it has, until those on the demand side have access to treatment. I believe that one of the main causes of all these overdoses is the word “addict” carries with it negative suggestions and associations: As if addiction is a living, breathing actuality caused by the lack of morals, lack of strength or a flawed character. It’s this stigma that society has created that keeps the ones who need help alone, hopeless and ashamed. When people have substance abuse problems, they’re hijacked by cravings. People who are addicts can’t just simply walk away. However, it’s not because they’re bad or weak; it’s because the receptors in their brain are stuck in the “on call daily” mode. It's like a craving cycle. Addiction is an illness centered in the part of the brain that drives instinct and leads to manipulative behaviors such as lying, cheating and stealing, which in turns leads to shame and guilt. All the facts, statistics and stories about heroin addiction only tell a small part of the story. The real story is a human one. One that I’ve come to know well. If it seems as though I’m able to see further than others on this, it’s only because I’m standing on the shoulders of experience. Back in the 1970s, Betty Ford admitted she was addicted to alcohol and painkillers. When she announced this, people sat up and listened, because she had the ear of people in power. Many have died due to this epidemic, and many more will die again. Unfortunately, those who have learned from those lessons (the parents of dead children) are not the ones who sit in Congress or state offices with the power to change the system. We have to change the way our country views addiction – not as a moral failure but as a chronic illness that must be treated with skill, urgency and compassion. There are many across our nation caught up in addiction. If our government really wants to approach victory in its War on Drugs, programs must be implemented. Only then can we help those suffering in the midst of their own storms to learn how to dance in the rain. Jeff Morret, formerly of Dillsburg, is an inmate at Laurel Highlands state prison. --------------------------------------------------- County Williamsport Sun-Gazette (07/01/2016) http://www.sungazette.com/page/content.detail/id/662964/Drug-addicts-contributing-toprison-s-big-numbers.html?nav=5011 Drug addicts contributing to prison’s big numbers By Anne Reiner The Lycoming County Prison is swamped with an overcrowding dilemma due in large part to the heroin epidemic running rampant throughout the community, according to county commissioners. Commissioners Jack McKernan and Rick Mirabito spoke during their Thursday morning meeting about their desire to find alternate treatment options for heroin addicts, outside of the local prison. "There is a relationship between the heroin/opioid problem and the overcrowding issue at the jail," Mirabito said. He added that their desire is to "find a way to separate some of the folks at the prison who have heroin and opioid problems before. they get deep into the criminal process." The two commissioners met with Gary Tennis, the secretary at the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs for the state, to discuss possible treatment options for the county. The meeting was encouraging, according to McKernan. "It was a good conversation and he sounded receptive to either further discussion or possibly coming to Lycoming County to talk about helping us out," McKernan said. Mirabito said the commissioners are not considering building a new prison right now, and would like to exhaust all other options first. Previous projections for building a new prison put the project at roughly $40 million. In other business, the commissioners unanimously approved final disbursement of $50,000 for the Homes in Need Program with STEP Inc. This is the third payment of a $150,000 guarantee in accordance with the Optional Affordable Housing Funds act of 1992, that distinguishes money for this specific purpose, according to Mya Toon, chief procurement officer for the county. The commissioners also announced that during their next Thursday meeting they will be holding a public hearing to provide an opportunity for community members to discuss Pennsylvania College of Technology's $60 million bond refinancing effort. According to the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, a hearing is required by the IRS so that the public will have an opportunity to comment on tax-exempt funds. The commissioners present were Mirabito and McKernan. Tony Mussare was absent. The next commissioners meeting will be at 10 a.m. on Tuesday. --------------------------------------------------- Johnstown Tribune Democrat (07/07/2016) http://www.tribdem.com/news/local_news/warden-guards-foil-inmate-s-bid-to-escapefrom-cambria/article_58d09ed9-cd98-5538-bd00-13d63155fafd.html Warden: Guards foil inmate's bid to escape from Cambria County Prison By Jocelyn Brumbaugh EBENSBURG – Officials with the Cambria County Prison said an inmate attempted to escape from the facility Friday night. Christopher Sanner, 22, is a state parole violator housed at the prison, according to Warden Christian Smith. Court documents list Sanner's address as Philadelphia, but his previous charges were filed in Jefferson County. While Smith declined to provide details about exactly where Sanner's efforts to break out took place at the prison, the warden said charges will be filed through District Judge Frederick Creany's office for damage to the facility as well as the alleged attempted escape. Smith said a guard noticed Sanner's attempt to flee Friday night and immediately informed supervisors. "He did not ever get out of the facility," Smith said. "We uncovered his plan to escape." Under the prison's state contract, state parole violators such as Sanner stay for about 90 days to participate in treatment programs before their release, Smith said. According to online court records, Sanner violated his parole from 2013 charges of simple assault, theft and false reports. He was re-sentenced in 2014 to additional probation and jail time. --------------------------------------------------- Williamsport Sun Gazette (07/06/2016) http://www.sungazette.com/page/content.detail/id/663225/County-continues-to-strugglewith-prison-overcrowding.html?nav=5011 County continues to struggle with prison overcrowding By Anne Reiner Continuous overcrowding at the Lycoming County Prison has forced the county to begin a third contract with an outside county for inmate housing, according to the county authorities. The commissioners considered an agreement with Wayne County at $66 per day on an as-needed basis, beginning on June 23 until Dec. 17, 2017. Previously, two agreements were made with Mifflin County, for $70 per day, and Snyder County, for $72 per day to address prison overcrowding. Additionally, the commissioners considered approval of an annual maintenance agreement with Logistic Systems for software at the county 911 Center at $42,517. According to Michael Holdren, county dispatcher, the cost of the maintenance will be paid through 911 fees. In other business, the commissioners considered the following Children and Youth contracts: Diakon Child Family & Community Ministries for foster care services for at per diems ranging from $58.12 to $94.72 per day. Families United Network Inc. for foster care and residential care services at per diems ranging from $26.74 to 194.17 per day. Catholic Social Services of the Diocese of Scranton as the sponsoring organization for Lycoming County's Big Brother Big Sister Program for the period of Oct. 1 through June 30, not to exceed $20,500. Angela C. Lovecchio, attorney at law for Guardian Ad Litem Services for $3,200 per month and attorney Trisha Hoover, for substitute Guardian Ad Litem Services at $65 per hour. Community Solutions Inc. for the provision of multi-systemic therapy services at the per diem rate of $65 per day for the period of July 1 through June 30, 2017. A public comment period also revealed a complaint by Williamsport resident Frank Steckel, who claimed he was told by a sheriff's deputy Tuesday morning to leave the courthouse, and that he would only be allowed to return if he had official business. Steckel said he had been in the courthouse to deliver a letter to the district attorney's office. The commissioners will vote on these and other issues during their 10 a.m. Thursday meeting. The only commissioner present was Rick Mirabito. Jack McKernan called in for a vote on the passage of the bills. Tony Mussare was absent. --------------------------------------------------- Morning Call (07/06/2016) http://www.mcall.com/news/breaking/mc-allentown-police-chief-son-fitzgerald-racialprofiling-suit-20160705-story.html Ex-chief's son claims racial profiling in suit over road-rage case By Peter Hall The son of former Allentown police Chief Joel Fitzgerald, acquitted of pointing a gun at Lehigh County detectives in a 2014 road-rage incident, claims racial profiling and political retribution against his father played roles in his arrest and subsequent trial. The detectives who tailed Christopher Fitzgerald in an unmarked car on their way to meet an informant did so because Fitzgerald is black, a civil rights lawsuit filed in federal court alleges. Despite weak evidence, the suit claims, Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin pressed forward with Fitzgerald's case on simple assault, reckless endangerment and traffic charges as payback because Martin had supported another candidate for the chief's job his father got. And county corrections officials stripped Christopher Fitzgerald of his job as a prison guard, even though he was found not guilty, to further penalize him, the suit claims. The lawsuit, filed June 24 in U.S. District Court in Allentown, alleges Martin, county detectives, Whitehall Township police and corrections officials violated Fitzgerald's constitutional rights through malicious prosecution, false arrest and imprisonment and deliberate indifference to his right to equal protection under the law. It also alleges the defendants conspired to deprive Fitzgerald of his constitutional rights. Martin, Whitehall Township Mayor Ed Hozza Jr. and Director of Corrections Edward Sweeney said Tuesday they would not comment on the allegations. An attorney for Fitzgerald did not respond to messages. The lawsuit comes nearly two years after the incident that led to Fitzgerald's charges, subsequent claims by his criminal defense attorney that they were racially motivated and stern warnings from the district attorney that such claims could ratchet up racial tensions in the city. Describing the events that led to Fitzgerald's arrest, the lawsuit echoes the narrative defense attorney Jack McMahon wove during the trial last spring when Fitzgerald was found not guilty. The suit states Fitzgerald was driving his fiancee to work Aug. 29, 2014, with the couple's 1-year-old in the back seat when he noticed a sedan with dark-tinted windows following close behind. He was unaware that the car following him was an unmarked police vehicle driven by county Detectives Christopher Cruz and Todd Frey, the suit says. As a corrections officer, Fitzgerald had frequently received threats from inmates who told him their friends on the outside could cause him harm, the suit says. The sedan continued to tailgate despite Fitzgerald's slowing to give the other vehicle opportunities to pass. Fitzgerald then stopped in the right lane and rolled down his window to speak to the occupants of the other car, the suit says. The suit claims Cruz and Frey pulled alongside Fitzgerald's car and boxed it in. Frey opened the door of the sedan, but neither detective identified himself as a law enforcement officer, the suit claims. Fitzgerald then drew his handgun, which he was permitted to carry, and held it at chest level, pointed toward the ground, according to the suit. It says Cruz and Frey then backed away, but continued to follow Christopher Fitzgerald's car as he drove away. They followed Christopher Fitzgerald to the parking lot of the Lehigh Valley Mall, where uniformed Whitehall police officers joined Cruz and Frey to place Fitzgerald and his fiancee under arrest, the suit says. The suit alleges Cruz and Frey targeted Fitzgerald because he is black and that they conspired to cover up their actions by giving false statements. It also alleges the district attorney's office has a history of false arrest and unjust prosecution against members of minorities and that it proceeded with charges against Fitzgerald because he is black. The suit also claims Martin proceeded with Fitzgerald's prosecution because Joel Fitzgerald held the Allentown police chief position Martin had actively sought for former Whitehall police Chief Ted Kohuth. In Christopher Fitzgerald's criminal trial, the detectives testified that Fitzgerald "brake checked" them as they drove behind his car on North Seventh Street. The officers said they had a responsibility to stop and check why the driver ahead was behaving erratically and that they feared for their lives when Fitzgerald pulled his gun. Jurors heard a 911 call from the detectives — whose radios were in the car's trunk during the undercover operation — frantically calling for backup. But video recorded by a bystander when police stopped and arrested Fitzgerald showed him calmly lying on the ground as he shouted "I don't know who you are." McMahon told jurors Fitzgerald displayed his gun because he was frightened for his family's safety. Assistant District Attorney Steven Luksa told jurors Fitzgerald "misperceived and misjudged" the situation, and committed a crime by threatening the men with a gun. --------------------------------------------------- The Altoona Mirror (07/06/2016) Inmate cleared of prison assault Public defender says lack of video might have made difference in Trice trial By Kay Stephens HOLLIDAYSBURG - A Blair County jury declined Tuesday to convict a prison inmate of assaulting another inmate, despite testimony from three inmates, a police officer and a deputy warden. After about an hour of deliberation, the jury acquitted Talen A. Trice, 21, of a simple assault charge from a Dec. 16, 2015, fight at the Blair County Prison, where inmate Brandon J. Silver of Bellwood suffered head injuries and was knocked unconscious. Silver identified Trice as the man who assaulted him. Fellow inmates Edwin Wilson and Henry Garran Jr. also identified Trice as the inmate who assaulted Silver. District Attorney Richard Consiglio put all three inmates on the witness stand, along with Hollidaysburg Borough police officer Mark Lingafelt, who investigated the fight, and deputy warden Mark Masucci. "Maybe the lack of video made a difference," Chief Public Defender Russ Montgomery said of the jury's acquittal. "I know they didn't have video of the assault, but maybe the jury wanted to see what video they had." Masucci said the assault took place in an area where a stationary camera's view is blocked by a pillar. Of the video recorded at the time of the fight, Masucci said he reviewed it and provided it to Lingafelt. "The video wasn't helpful," Lingafelt testified. Consiglio had Silver, Wilson and Garran testify about the fight and what they observed. Silver said he was alone in his cell when Trice came toward him and told him to "strap up." "I turned around to face him, and that's when I got hit in the face," Silver testified. Wilson said he saw Trice and Silver come out of Silver's cell, with Silver holding his bleeding nose. Wilson said he pushed a button to summon corrections officers for medical help, then went to get some toilet tissue for Silver's bloody nose. Garran said he was with Silver, listening to his account of what happened, when Trice came toward them. "He kind of forced me out of the way and started hitting Silver," Garran said. "My coffee went flying," he said. "I could tell (Silver) was dazed, like Mike Tyson just hit him." Consiglio, surprised by the jury's verdict, said he had no explanation for it. Jurors contacted by the Mirror either declined comment or did not return phone calls. In his closing, Montgomery acknowledged that Silver was assaulted but suggested that someone else may have been behind the attack. When testifying, Silver said he had problems with some inmates and corrections officers. Silver also said he was previously assaulted in prison in 2013, but those assaults weren't reported to police. At the time of the fight, Silver was serving time in connection with theft and receiving stolen goods. Trice, at the time of the fight, was facing 113 charges in connection with leading police on a high-speed chase in June 2015 and endangering hundreds of people in the parking lot of the Logan Valley Mall where a carnival was being held. Trice subsequently entered a guilty plea to some of those charges and was sentenced in April to spend at least two years in prison. He has also been ordered to return to Maryland to face attempted homicide and robbery charges. --------------------------------------------------National Corrections The Washington Post 07/05/2016) https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/weak-staff-search-policy-aids-federal-prisonsmuggling-report-says/2016/07/05/9ec58014-42d7-11e6-88d06adee48be8bc_story.html Weak staff-search policy aids federal prison smuggling, report says By Joe Davidson Are prison employees behind “the persistent problem of contraband smuggling” in federal prisons? An investigation into the Justice Department’s Federal Bureau of Prisons cites weak and ineffective procedures that make it easier for workers to get prohibited items to inmates. And employees, albeit a small percentage, do smuggle. Justice Department news releases show seven cases of smuggling-related crimes charged against individuals while they were federal prison employees so far this year. That does not include staffers disciplined administratively. To put that in context, contraband represents about 5 percent of the prison staff misconduct cases. A new report from the department’s Office of the Inspector General says 134 BOP staffers, less than 1 percent of the agency’s workforce, were implicated in substantiated contraband-related investigations over the two-year period that ended in July 2014. More employees might have been investigated directly by the prison system, but a spokesman said he couldn’t immediately provide that information. While the portion of employees involved is small, contraband “poses grave dangers” to the 200,000 prison inmates, as well as staffers, visitors and the public, the report warned. The most common prohibited items found in federal prisons during fiscal years 2012 through 2014 were cellphones. “Inmates with cellphones can direct criminal activities from behind bars, including intimidating witnesses and victims,” Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz said in a statement. “Inmates also have used cellphones to coordinate escapes. We found that cellphones are one of the most prevalent and dangerous contraband items that the BOP recovers in federal prisons, with over 8,000 phones confiscated during a recent 3-year period.” That’s almost eight every day. Here’s a big problem — “BOP still does not have an effective policy for searching staff when they enter prisons, despite our raising this issue more than 13 years ago,” Horowitz said. “For example, we found that correctional officers and other staff entering federal prisons are rarely subject to random pat-down searches.” The inspector general’s analysis found that high-security federal penal institutions do the equivalent of one random pat search every three months. A staffer could probably escape that. The BOP agreed with the report’s recommendations and said it “will develop and propose changes to the staff search policy that includes a minimum frequency and duration requirement for randomly pat searching staff.” Lackadaisical procedures don’t stop with searches. The inspector general’s office said prison officials do not “comprehensively and reliably” track recovered smuggled goods and that employees need more guidance and training on new technologies to detect contraband. In 2003, the inspector general told prison officials they should require searches of workers and their property when they enter facilities. Apparently it was not considered a top priority, because a staff-search policy was not implemented until 10 years later, following talks with the American Federation of Government Employees. That policy lasted only two years before it was thrown out by the Federal Labor Relations Authority. It acted on a complaint by the union’s Council of Prison Locals that the search policy had not been “fully negotiated” with the labor organization as required. Although prison officials agreed that the current level of staff searches are “not conducted with enough frequency to be an aggressive and effective deterrent,” the report says the bureau is limited because any new policy requires additional labor negotiations. While AFGE officials did not comment for this story, the report said union leaders pointed out that relatively few employees engage in illegal activities and “emphasized that random pat searches subject the rest of the rule-abiding staff to harassment, intimidation, and coercion by institution management.” Union officials said they would support staff searches when there is reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing. Because it took a decade for prison officials to implement the 2003 recommendation for staff searches, the report said, “we believe the BOP must make this issue a priority with the goal of much more timely corrective action to improve the safety of BOP institutions.” The staff-search policy was reinstated with minor changes in March. While the policy allows random staff searches, it does not dictate any level of frequency. Lax policy means searches are rare. Another problem is that staffers can take containers of any size into work, according to the report, “including duffle bags, briefcases, and large and small coolers,” contrary to a 16-year-old inspector general’s office recommendation against that: “We reported in 2003 that unrestricted property and large personal containers are among the significant methods for introducing contraband.” This contrasts with state prison systems that “employ more stringent measures to deter contraband introductions,” the report said. Also, the prison system’s security camera operation has “blind spots known to inmates and staff” that “further reduce the BOP’s ability to deter contraband introductions.” The report concluded, “The safety and security of staff and inmates will continue to be at risk until the BOP develops and implements a comprehensive and effective staff search policy.” --------------------------------------------------- Arkansas online (07/06/2016) http://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2016/jul/06/ex-prison-chaplain-gets-5-years2016070/ Ex-Arkansas prison chaplain says guilty in sex assaults By Jeannie Roberts ASH FLAT -- Kenneth Dewitt, the former chaplain at a women's state prison, sat silently and alone in the back row of a Sharp County courtroom Tuesday for about a half-hour before he heard his name called. Four rows directly in front of him sat Wendy Kelley, director of the Arkansas Department of Correction and Dewitt's former boss. Kelley's gaze followed him, never wavering from Dewitt as he somberly walked down the aisle to the bench of 3rd Judicial Circuit, Division 1, Judge Harold Erwin. Standing with his hands folded in front of him, 67-year-old Dewitt, sporting a cleanshaven head and face, and wearing a gray polo shirt and dark slacks, pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting three female inmates at the McPherson Women's Unit in Newport. He quietly answered, "Yes, sir," when Erwin asked if he accepted the plea deal. Initially charged with 50 counts that carried a possible 500 years in prison, Dewitt was sentenced to 10 years each on three counts of third-degree sexual assault, a Class C felony. The sentences are to run concurrently. The judge suspended five years of each sentence, meaning he will serve five years in the Arkansas Department of Correction. Dewitt has until Aug. 8 to "get his affairs in order" before beginning his incarceration. The former prison chaplain answered simply, "Yes, sir," to Erwin's rapid-fire procedural questions, then looked down at his feet. Dewitt's head shot up and he grimaced when Erwin demanded that the attorneys spell out exactly the actions he took to merit the charges. "Give me the facts," Erwin said. Erwin listened as defense attorney Jeff Rosenzweig and prosecutor Henry Boyce relayed the claims of repeated forced sexual favors from the three inmates in Dewitt's chaplain's office at the prison unit. "At the time of the offenses, he was an employee of the Arkansas Department of Corrections and used that position of authority to take advantage of these women," Boyce said. Dewitt stared directly into the judge's eyes and said loudly, "I did not use my position." Dewitt never made eye contact with Kelley during Tuesday's court appearance. Gov. Asa Hutchinson handed the reins of the Correction Department to Kelley in early 2015, the first woman to hold the position. Kelley began her tenure with the prison in 2006 as the director for health and correctional programs. Dewitt worked for the agency from 2001 until he was asked to resign last September amid allegations of sexual misconduct. The allegations that spurred an investigation by the state Department of Correction's internal affairs office and the Arkansas State Police spanned from January 2013 to September 2014. It happened under her watch, a fact she takes to heart. "He didn't use his position?" Kelley asked rhetorically in an interview after the court hearing, referring to Dewitt's earlier remarks. "He took advantage of three women for several years. Tell me how that's not abusing your position." Boyce looked at Kelley and nodded. "He apparently has a different opinion than I do on the subject," Boyce said. "He's rationalizing it," Kelley added. She said she didn't see how the assaults occurred in such a visible location. Dewitt's former office was on the unit's main hallway and had a floor-to-ceiling clear glass window. "But that clearly wasn't good enough," Kelley said, grimacing. "So we made some moves to prevent that from ever being able to happen again." Those moves included knocking down some office walls to make visibility unavoidable. No other employees were reprimanded as enablers, Kelley said. "He was calling the women to his office in the mornings when he knew everybody was busy," she said. Boyce said the prosecution team prepared for the trial by interviewing witnesses and visiting the prison facilities. "We diagrammed the office space where these crimes took place. We interviewed several other collateral witnesses within the unit who corroborated the stories of the three victims," Boyce said. "They consistently told the same stories as far as his modus operandi of how he carried out these acts in his office, which in my opinion gave our case a strong degree of believability and entered into the process of him admitting his guilt." The three female inmates came forward only after Dewitt was forced to resign last fall when a former employee admitted to a "moral failure" with Dewitt. Former McPherson Unit inmate Stacey Smith told prison authorities the sexual relationship with Dewitt began in 2010, six years after she was paroled. According to documents obtained under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act, Smith continued to work with Dewitt -- first as a volunteer, then as a chaplain -spending 40 hours a week working with inmates in the faith-based Principles and Applications for Life (PAL) program, which Dewitt founded in 1998. Dewitt's relationship with Smith violated the department's Administrative Directive 1233, which prohibits managers from having sexual relationships with subordinates. Applications to the faith-based initiative is competitive. As a leader and as a chaplain, Dewitt could recommend inmates to the Classification Committee for admittance into the program. The Parole Board looks favorably on inmates who complete the program, a former prison official told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette previously. "He was paid a salary and he was paid to develop that program," Kelley said outside the courthouse. "And he was being paid when he took advantage of these women. As taxpayers, everyone should be appalled." With Dewitt gone from his chaplain position, Kelley said the victims were "no longer fearful of him" and came forward. One of the inmates told investigators that Dewitt told her that he was going to train her as a mentor for the Principles and Applications for Life program. On her first morning of training in 2011, the 35-year-old inmate said, Dewitt told her that she "wanted to touch" him and "wanted to be with" him, according to the affidavits. Dewitt stepped from behind his desk and began touching her, the affidavits say. From that point on, the inmate said, she and Dewitt had sexual contact -- including intercourse and oral sex. In 2013, after having a hysterectomy, the inmate told Dewitt she wanted to end the sexual relationship. Dewitt told her "she didn't have a choice." He threatened disciplinary action and that he would ensure that she "would not ever go home," affidavits say. The distraught inmate said she considered suicide. A second inmate, a 40-year-old woman who was a clerk in the program, told investigators that Dewitt repeatedly forced her to perform sexual favors from 2010 until 2014. Dewitt ordered the inmate not to tell anyone and stressed that "no one would believe her" over him anyway. Dewitt had a schedule, the inmate said, of sex with one female prisoner on Sunday, another on Monday, and then another on Wednesday. Another inmate, also a clerk in the program, said that a sexual relationship with Dewitt began in 2010 and continued until his resignation. Dewitt began calling her to his office at 6 a.m. on Sundays. The former chaplain would have her sit in a chair and perform oral sex on him while he stood at the door watching for anyone approaching down the hall, the inmate said. The charges against Dewitt came on the heels of an announcement by the U.S. Department of Justice in June 2015 that it was investigating the McPherson unit after receiving "numerous allegations" of sexual abuse and sexual harassment, as well as mistreatment of transgender women. The investigation is not yet resolved and Kelley said that she has not received any notice letters. Kelley said Tuesday that attorneys from the federal agency told her that Dewitt's case did not spawn the investigation. "They were not aware of it when they began," Kelley said. Dewitt hurriedly left the courtroom Tuesday after the hearing. Rosenzweig said, "No comment," when asked about his client's feelings on the plea agreement. Boyce was direct in why he felt a guilty plea on three counts instead of the original 50 was good enough for him. "The average life expectancy of a man today is 77," Boyce said, pressing his lips together. "He's 67. A five-year sentence is half of his life expectancy."

CCA said it hoped guards and other employees at the facilities, known as "residential reentry" centers, would stay on. The company also announced that it would continue operating the facilities under the old owner's name, Corrections Alternatives, because of its "strong and positive reputation." Yet according to a former guard, CCA's acquisition led to cutbacks in staff, food, and programming meant to help inmates reintegrate into the community. "The transition was ridiculous," says Mark Bartlett, who worked at the Ocean View reentry facility until he was fired in 2015. "It's turned into a business where they're cutting corners on everything. Whether it's with cutting staff on payroll, cutting food, the lack of nutrition, cutting programming." Bartlett, a 33-year-old who served as an Army prison guard in Afghanistan and grew up near the San Diego facility, kicked off a hunger strike on Tuesday evening to protest what he sees as poor conditions at Ocean View. He and a group of local activists have drawn up a list of demands, compiled with the input of current inmates. Their top demand is that San Diego County end its contracts with CCA—and they want federal and state agencies to do the same. Bartlett says he will not eat until the demands are met. While he was a guard at Ocean View, Bartlett says he began reporting issues, including forged documentation of searches and falsified hours spent training guards, to the facility's director and to CCA's human resources office. He says he took a "stress leave" from his job last August after he found that working in the prison was triggering his PTSD. When he couldn't set a date to return to work, he says, the company let him go. Bartlett doesn't have records documenting the alleged conditions inside Ocean View. He is demanding that the federal Bureau of Prisons release its audits of the facility, and that San Diego police and fire departments disclose community complaints about Ocean View, as well as records of emergency calls there. He is also demanding official investigations of staffing levels, narcotics use, sanitation, and medical care at Ocean View. CCA spokesman Jonathan Burns said that the company’s San Diego facilities are "appropriately staffed," and that their staffing patterns are approved by public agencies. According to Burns, CCA's only cutback at Ocean View in 2013 was eliminating a single administrative position. He also says that CCA has no record of Bartlett making formal allegations regarding employee training logs. CCA, the country's second-largest private prison operator, leases the reentry facility at Ocean View, which houses local, state, and federal inmates. It also owns Boston Avenue, a federal reentry facility in San Diego, and the Otay Mesa Detention Facility, a 1,500-bed federal immigration detention center south of the city. Its acquisition of the Ocean View and Boston Avenue facilities in 2013 was its first foray into the business of halfway houses. Since then, its investment in the sector has grown. It currently owns or runs 25 halfway houses with more than 5,000 beds in six states. Inmates assigned to halfway houses are typically nearing the end of their sentences. Some are allowed to leave the facility to go work, while others prepare for employment in training programs and counseling. Catherine Mendonca, a women's rights activist who will fast alongside Bartlett, wonders whether CCA's San Diego facilities are fulfilling their promise to help inmates prepare for freedom. "If they're getting proper nutrition, if they're getting opportunities to actually get a job—all of these are actually questionable," Mendonca says. "Is this actual rehabilitation? Or is this something to profit off the backs of those incarcerated?" --------------------------------------------------- Greenfield Daily Reporter (07/05/2016) http://www.greenfieldreporter.com/view/story/8851d1f364ec453580d9b085c4caf9e3/WA --Auburn-Shooting-Federal-Charges Auburn man indicted on charges of shooting corrections officer The Associated Press SEATTLE — A 31-year-old Auburn man accused of wounding a state Department of Corrections officer during a shootout last month has been indicted on a federal weapons charge. A criminal complaint filed in federal court says Randy Lee Hall was the subject of an ongoing federal firearms investigation since the spring after he "had been linked to multiple firearms and shots-fired incidents. The Seattle Times says Hall was charged last week with unlawful possession of a firearm. He isn't allowed to have guns because of four prior felony convictions.

Mr. Galack, 46, had come to the end of a long downward spiral, overcoming a painkiller addiction only to struggle with crippling anxiety. Now, he was to be driven more than a thousand miles to Butler County, Ohio, where his ex-wife and three children lived, to face a judge. Like dozens of states and countless localities, Butler County outsources the longdistance transport of suspects and fugitives. Mr. Galack was loaded into a van run by Prisoner Transportation Services of America, the nation’s largest for-profit extradition company. Crammed around him were 10 other people, both men and women, all handcuffed and shackled at the waist and ankles. They sat tightly packed on seats inside a cage, with no way to lie down to sleep. The air conditioning faltered amid 90-degree heat. Mr. Galack soon grew delusional, keeping everyone awake with a barrage of chatter and odd behavior. On the third day, the van stopped in Georgia, and one of two guards onboard gave a directive to the prisoners. “Only body shots,” one prisoner said she heard the guard say. The others began to stomp on Mr. Galack, two prisoners said. The guards said later in depositions that they had first noticed Mr. Galack’s slumped, bloodied body more than 70 miles later, in Tennessee. A homicide investigation lasted less than a day, and the van continued on its journey. The cause of death was later found to be undetermined. “This is someone’s brother, father, and it’s like nobody even cared,” said Mr. Galack’s ex-wife, Kristin Galack. Every year, tens of thousands of fugitives and suspects — many of whom have not been convicted of a crime — are entrusted to a handful of small private companies that specialize in state and local extraditions. A Marshall Project review of thousands of court documents, federal records and local news articles and interviews with more than 50 current or former guards and executives reveals a pattern of prisoner abuse and neglect in an industry that operates with almost no oversight. Since 2012, at least four people, including Mr. Galack, have died on private extradition vans, all of them run by the Tennessee-based Prisoner Transportation Services. In one case, a Mississippi man complained of pain for a day and a half before dying from an ulcer. In another, a Kentucky woman suffered a fatal withdrawal from anti-anxiety medication. And in another, guards mocked a prisoner’s pain before he, too, died from a perforated ulcer. Robert Downs, the chief operating officer of P.T.S., declined to comment on the deaths. He said guards were instructed to contact local officials when a serious medical emergency arises. “Unless it’s life or death, we can’t open the cage on the vehicle,” Mr. Downs said. “We don’t know if they’re setting us up for something.” This concern was echoed by guards at several companies, who said prisoners often feigned illnesses and injuries. Training for guards, many of whom are military veterans, is often limited to a tutorial on handcuffs and pepper spray and a review of policies and paperwork, leaving them unprepared for the hazards of driving a van full of prisoners. At least 60 prisoners have escaped from private extradition vehicles since 2000, including one who later stabbed a police officer and another who was accused of sexual assault on a minor and is still missing. The companies are usually paid per prisoner per mile, giving them incentive to pack the vans and take as few breaks as possible. Crashes have killed a dozen prisoners and guards. Operating primarily across the South and Midwest, guards travel up to weeks at a time along circuitous routes, typically picking up and dropping off prisoners in 15-passenger vans or sometimes minivans retrofitted with interior caging and darkened windows. These vans do not have prisoner beds, toilets or medical services. Violent felons are mixed with first-time suspects. A plexiglass divider is usually the only thing separating women from men. At least 14 women have alleged in criminal or civil court since 2000 that they were sexually assaulted by guards while being transported by these companies. “Just stay in jail. It’s better,” said Lauren Sierra, 21, who said she was repeatedly sexually assaulted by a guard in 2014 while being transported by U.S. Corrections, a rapidly growing company registered in North Carolina. Ms. Sierra, who is suing the company, was taken into custody after she faced charges, later dropped, that she used someone else’s Bed, Bath & Beyond gift card. Dustin Baldwin, the executive director of U.S. Corrections, declined to comment beyond saying that the accusations had not been proved. Because the vans cross state lines, accountability falls into a gray zone. Jurisdictions that hire the companies often disavow responsibility for prisoners not under their direct custody, and federal regulators have largely ignored the industry. “It’s like the airport shuttle from hell,” said Zachary Raines, a former P.T.S. guard. Strained Jails and Budgets At a time when a swollen United States prison and jail population has strained law enforcement budgets, transport companies offer a significantly cheaper alternative to traditional extradition, in which local deputies are sent miles out of state for one person. Continue reading the main story “Some agencies take huge advantage of the taxpayers’ money by sending deputies ‘on vacation’ to extradite an inmate,” said Mr. Baldwin of U. S. Corrections, and pay them “a considerable amount of overtime” for doing so. They also have to cover fuel costs or plane tickets and, often, hotel rooms. Private vans can save considerably by picking up and dropping off other prisoners along the way, charging 75 cents to $1.50 a mile per prisoner. Corrections departments in 26 states, law enforcement in cities such as Chicago, Atlanta and Las Vegas, and local agencies nationwide use extradition companies. Although about two dozen private prisoner transport companies have registered with the Department of Transportation, only seven have state-level extradition contracts, with P.T.S. having the most by far. But maintaining tight profit margins depends on relentlessly shaving time and costs on the road, industry veterans said. “You route the prisoner like a package, but miss a single deadline, and you lose money,” said Kent Bradford, a former director of operations for TransCor America, a subsidiary of Corrections Corporation of America, the largest private prison company in the United States. TransCor stopped performing extraditions in 2008 because of liability and cost concerns, but still moves prisoners between C.C.A. locations. Guards — who earn about $150 to $250 per 24-hour shift, and who rotate driving duty — are generally paid only while they are on the road. Because they often have to pay out-of-pocket for a hotel room, most said they rarely chose to stop. Bunking overnight also requires finding a jail willing to offer beds and showers to prisoners, which is difficult because jails do not always want to house unknown prisoners from other jurisdictions. “I’d have an exhaust fan installed in the hall to get that smell out,” said David Osborne, who runs the Daviess County Detention Center in Kentucky, which used to be a P.T.S. hub for transferring and housing prisoners en route. To keep up with demand, vans drive across as many as a dozen states on a single trip. “The bosses would be on the phone, saying, ‘What, you can’t do it? You can’t push it, you can’t make it to the next jail?’ ” said Fernando Colon, who worked as a guard for two years, first for a company that is now defunct and then for U.S. Corrections. On most trips, every meal for days is a fast-food sandwich. Water is rationed and bathroom stops limited. Prisoners who cannot wait often urinate in bottles or on themselves, and sometimes defecate on the floor of the van, according to guards and lawsuits. “People were screaming, complaining, passing out. I threw up,” said Roberta Blake, 37, who spent two weeks in 2014 being transported by P.T.S. from California to Alabama, including a week in a stifling van. Lacking both privacy and sanitary napkins, she had to use a cup in front of the male guards and prisoners when she began menstruating. After another prisoner ripped off her shirt, she spent the rest of the trip in a sports bra. Ms. Blake, whose account was confirmed by two other prisoners in the van, had been arrested on a warrant issued after she failed to return a rental car on time. For some prisoners, the ride ends in serious injury, or even death. Michael Dykes, who has diabetes, had both of his legs amputated after three days in an Inmate Services Corporation van in July 2012. Mr. Dykes said he had already been in declining health when he got into the van after spending nearly three weeks in a South Carolina jail with poor medical care. But once in transport to Missouri, his condition worsened, he said. Black sores on his toes were exacerbated by pressure from ankle shackles, a lawsuit alleges, and his repeated requests for medical care were ignored. His insulin, which must be kept cold, was stored on the dashboard in the sun, Mr. Dykes said. Randy Cagle Jr., the president of the Arkansas-based Inmate Services Corporation, denied the accusations. “We always follow protocol and get medical information when we pick an inmate up,” he wrote in an email. “I am confident that we will be vindicated.” Mr. Cagle said in a brief phone interview that some prisoners lied or sued frivolously. “You are not going to get through this business without hurting people’s feelings,” he said. “You just have to remember to treat people fair.” When suspects are arrested on a warrant, they often spend considerable time in a local jail before being picked up for extradition. About a dozen guards from several transport companies said jails provided substandard medical care and little information about prisoners’ health status or prescribed medications, which the guards are expected to dispense en route. Guards are not required by law to have any medical experience other than training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation. “They did an hourlong class on their policies, taught us to put on handcuffs, gave us our uniforms and put us on the road. And then we’re expected to deal with this stuff,” said Kenneth Adams, one of two guards aboard a P.T.S. van in which Denise Isaacs, 54, died in Miami in 2014. Like Mr. Galack, Ms. Isaacs began experiencing bizarre symptoms while on board: muttering, drooling and gasping. When she was unable to climb back into the van after a stop, the guards phoned P.T.S. headquarters. But their supervisors said to keep going, Mr. Adams told investigators with the Miami-Dade Police Department. “I would have taken her to the hospital,” the other guard, Kirk Westbrooks, said in an interview with The Marshall Project. “I wanted to.” Ms. Isaacs, who had been arrested on charges of violating probation on a theft conviction, died a few hours later in a Taco Bell parking lot. An autopsy later found that she had been experiencing delirium tremens caused by withdrawal from diazepam, an anti-anxiety medication that P.T.S. staff members said they were never informed she was taking. The Miami-Dade police closed the investigation after determining that the death was from natural causes. In January of this year, P.T.S. guards transporting William Culpepper Jr., 36, from Kentucky to Mississippi told officials at a stop at a company jail hub in Missouri that they believed he was faking stomach pains, according to a sheriff’s report. Mr. Culpepper, who was wanted for a parole violation, died minutes later from what the coroner handling his case called a “perfectly treatable” perforated ulcer. It was the second time in two years that a P.T.S. prisoner had died from a perforated ulcer. In 2014, William Weintraub, 47, a former physics professor charged with threatening a South Carolina newspaper over an article he disputed, was found blue and covered in urine in the back of a P.T.S. van when it reached Georgia. Investigators there determined that P.T.S. guards had mocked Mr. Weintraub’s complaints of severe stomach pain. The investigation was closed. In 1993, he molested and murdered his 11-year-old North Dakota neighbor, Jeanna North. Six years later, he escaped from a private transport van. His absence was not noticed for nine hours, and guards did not notify the police for another two hours. The escape warranted a segment on “America’s Most Wanted.” After the episode, Byron Dorgan, then a Democratic United States senator from North Dakota, introduced a measure to impose controls on the industry. “My colleagues and I were all shocked that a guy and his wife with an S.U.V. could start a business to haul violent offenders around with no requirements,” Mr. Dorgan said. The law, commonly known as Jeanna’s Act, passed in 2000. Jeanna’s Act mandates that extradition companies must notify local law enforcement immediately after an escape, dress violent prisoners in brightly colored clothing and maintain a ratio of one guard for every six prisoners. It also sets broad standards for training and background checks of guards, and for treatment of prisoners. But the federal law is almost never enforced. The Justice Department could identify just one instance: In 2011, a suspect accused of child molestation escaped from an unlocked van in North Dakota, a few hours from where Jeanna had been murdered. Local farmers cleared a cornfield to flush him out. The company, Extradition Transport of America, was fined $80,000 and went out of business. “Well, it’s regulated by the Department of Justice, but I’ve never seen anybody come out to actually check on us,” said Mr. Downs, the chief operating officer of P.T.S. “We’re just supposed to follow the guidelines.” Extradition companies are not required to report escapes to federal regulators, and there is no centralized tracking. But a review of dozens of local news accounts shows that since Jeanna’s Act was passed, at least 56 prisoners were reported to have escaped from for-profit extradition vehicles. At least 16 were reported to have committed new crimes while on the run. By comparison, the prison systems of California, Florida and Texas — which together transport more than 800,000 inmates every year, most of them in-state — have each had just one prisoner escape from transport vehicles over the same period. “We thought we’d closed the door on this,” Mr. Dorgan said in reference to the widespread use of small extradition companies and the escapes that have occurred. While the Department of Transportation has no role in responding to escapes or prisoner mistreatment, it is responsible for monitoring vehicle and driver safety, including whether guards get enough downtime away from the wheel, under the same regulations that govern all passenger carriers. A Marshall Project review of Department of Transportation records shows that the agency’s monitoring is infrequent, and companies are typically given advance notice of an audit. Between 2000 and 2015, records indicate, the department issued fines 20 times, most below $10,000. While P.T.S. has been registered with the department since at least 2005, the agency did not audit the company until 2009, records show. U.S. Corrections, which was founded in 2014, was audited for the first time in March. Because passenger carriers are not required to specify to the Transportation Department what kinds of people they move around, a department spokesman said he could not comment on specifics about the prisoner transport industry. Local news reports and court records show that there have been more than 50 crashes involving private extradition vehicles since 2000. In almost every instance, the prisoners were shackled but not wearing seatbelts, leaving them unable to brace themselves. In addition to the dozen deaths, a dozen prisoners have suffered injuries to their necks, skulls or spines, according to lawsuits, hospital reports and accident reports obtained from state and local agencies. Fatigue seems to have played a role in many of the accidents. Of 26 accidents for which a time could be determined, 14 occurred between midnight and 6 a.m. Mr. Downs, who took over operations at P.T.S. after it merged last year with one of its biggest competitors, the Florida-based U.S. Prisoner Transport, said he had taken steps to make the company safer. The company had already installed sleeper berths for guards in its vans. Mr. Downs said its agents were now required to stay in a company-paid hotel room every 36 hours, although he said that was not always possible because of scheduling pressures. The company also has three full-size buses and has bought four larger shuttle buses, all with bathrooms on board, in addition to its fleet of nearly 30 vans. Guards are monitored by GPS, and their pay has been increased, Mr. Downs said. “It’s a tough industry,” he said. “The profit margins aren’t as good as you would think they are.” He declined to answer a list of written questions about specific occurrences in the company’s vans. Security Transport Services, which is based in Topeka, Kan., and has been in the business since 1990, says it puts all prisoners in seatbelts and requires agents to stay in a hotel every night. A Kansas sheriff said the company had also partly reimbursed his department for the cost of a manhunt after a 2012 escape, which is required by law in cases of negligence but rarely occurs, according to a survey of law enforcement officials in jurisdictions where escapes occurred. But the company charges about 30 percent more than its competitors, said Tom Rork, its vice president. Security Transport Services has contracts with three state corrections departments, compared with nearly 20 held by P.T.S., and it recently lost its Pennsylvania contract to U.S. Corrections. P.T.S. says in federal filings that it has “contracts or relationships” with about 800 agencies. It is also poised to acquire U.S. Corrections, one of its main competitors, next month, according to a filing with the national Surface Transportation Board. Answers Are Elusive After Mr. Galack’s death, his brother, Robert, made repeated calls to the Tennessee authorities, trying to determine what had happened. “I mean, he was fully in shackles and ended up dead?” he said. It was hard to find answers. Only one prisoner in the van, Chelsie Hogsett, told investigators that Mr. Galack had been beaten. Another, Joseph Allen, did not confirm the account until a later civil suit. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation decided within eight hours of arriving at the scene that if a crime had occurred, it had happened in Georgia. It sent the van on its way. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation declined to follow up, records show. The medical examiner noted Mr. Galack’s injuries — a broken rib, bruises on his head, torso, arms and legs, a broken tooth and cuts around his nose and eyes — but did not believe they had led to his death. The investigation was determined to be “as thorough as the circumstances warranted,” said Josh DeVine, a spokesman for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Anthony Dwyer, the chief deputy of the sheriff’s office in Butler County, Ohio, said he had been told only that a prisoner had died en route, not that a beating might have been involved. “It wasn’t really our responsibility,” he said. He said he monitored P.T.S.’s performance by speaking to prisoners when they arrive. Darnell Ball, one of the guards in the van that transported Mr. Galack, declined to comment, citing a confidentiality agreement. The other, Leroy Creese, did not respond to two attempts to contact him at an address believed to be his home. A P.T.S. official said in a deposition taken in a civil lawsuit that Mr. Galack had sustained the injuries in a fall in the van. This spring, Mr. Galack’s family won a confidential settlement against P.T.S. But Mr. Galack’s son, Jordan, found it paltry consolation. Now 20, he had talked to his father every day on the phone and lost 30 pounds after his father’s death. Kristin Galack said she had never had any idea what her ex-husband would face when he was arrested. “Steve and the other people on these vans, they’ve made mistakes,” Ms. Galack said. “But that doesn’t mean he couldn’t come back from it. People do.” Three months after Mr. Galack was found in the back of the van, P.T.S. sent Butler County a bill for $1,061 — the cost of the 752 miles he was transported before dying. --------------------------------------------------- ABC3340 (07/06/2016) http://abc3340.com/news/nation-world/8-georgia-prisons-on-lockdown-after-death-ofinmate-brawl-that-injured-16 8 Georgia prisons on lockdown after death of inmate, brawl that injured 16 By the Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Authorities say eight Georgia prisons are on lockdown after a bloody June that included the killing of an inmate in one prison and a brawl at another facility that sent 16 inmates to hospitals. The Georgia Department of Corrections said Wednesday that the lockdowns are a response to rising tensions between prison gangs following the violence. An autopsy found Joshua Brooks died of blunt force trauma after he was found unresponsive in his cell at Calhoun State Prison in southwest Georgia on June 11. Multiple fights broke out in Smith State Prison in south Georgia on June 20. Authorities they've canceled visitation at the following state prisons: Autry State Prison Calhoun State Prison Hancock State Prison Macon State Prison Smith State Prison Telfair State Prison Valdosta State Prison Ware State Prison Las Vegas Sun (07/06/2016) https://lasvegassun.com/news/2016/jul/06/nevada-prisons-ending-segregation-of-hivpositive/ Nevada prisons ending segregation of HIV-positive inmates By Cy Ryan CARSON CITY — Faced with the threat of a federal lawsuit, the Nevada prison system will no longer apply segregation policies that deny inmates with HIV access to work programs where other prisoners earn credits to reduce the length of their sentences. The state Department of Corrections “will not support denying an inmate a job or housing an inmate differently from the general population based on the reasoning that they have HIV or other blood-borne disease,” prisons chief James Dzurenda said. Dzurenda instructed prison officials not to disclose the condition of HIV-infected inmates to correctional officers or those who assign work details. He also said medical records that identify HIV inmates must be kept confidential. Justice Department lawyers warned Nevada's attorney general last month that they might sue the state under the Americans with Disabilities Act if it didn't change the policies based largely on unfounded fears about the transmission of HIV. They recommended the state pay compensatory damages to inmates who've been discriminated against — and in some cases threatened and harassed — as a result of the "medically unnecessary" segregation policy that stigmatizes those with HIV. HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, causes AIDS but cannot be transmitted through ordinary activities such as shaking hands or sharing drinking glasses, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Rebecca Bond, chief of the Justice Department's Disability Rights Section, notified the state in a June 20 letter it's violating the ADA by routinely denying HIV-infected inmates — and some others with mobility disabilities — assignment to low-custody facilities, including conservation camps and transitional housing where inmates earn the most work credits. "No inmate should have to stay in segregated housing because of a HIV diagnosis or serve a longer sentence because of a disability," said Vanita Gupta, deputy assistant U.S. attorney general and head of the department's Civil Rights Division. "Real and lasting reform in Nevada will require not only systemic changes in its policies, practices and procedures, but also a commitment to address unfounded stereotypes, fears and assumptions about individuals with disabilities," Gupta said. Nevada law says these inmates must be segregated from other prisoners if there is a risk of transmitting the virus by battery, sexual activity or use of illegal drugs. Mike Willden, chief of staff for Gov. Brian Sandoval, said there will have to be a change in Nevada law to comply with the federal statute. The Justice Department launched an ADA compliance review in Nevada after receiving complaints from two inmates at the High Desert State Prison in Indian Springs. After interviewing more than 30 inmates and more than 20 corrections workers, the department concluded Nevada's "house alike/house alone" policy "stigmatizes inmates with HIV and indiscriminately disclosed their confidential HIV status to NDOC employees and inmates." As a result, inmates with HIV have been exposed to "potential harm from inmates who may hold unfounded fears of, or prejudices against, those with HIV," the department said, adding that other "inmates have harassed or threatened those whom they believe have HIV." The department noted the CDC has concluded HIV "cannot be transmitted through ordinary daily activities such as sharing toilets, sharing dishes or drinking glasses, shaking hands, hugging, touching, sneezing, coughing or exposure to the saliva, tears or sweat of a person with HIV." Nevada's policy actually allows for inmates with HIV to work in the prison kitchen. "But some NDOC employees either are unaware of, or have knowingly disregarded, this policy," the report said. It said some inmates' jobs have been terminated upon discovery that they have HIV. --------------------------------------------------- Kristen M.

http://wesa.fm/post/higher‐education‐program‐inmates‐be‐piloted‐pa‐universities  Interview with Secretary Wetzel  Higher education program for inmates to be piloted at PA universities  By Megan Fair  The U.S. Department of Education has revamped a higher education program for prisoners, and four schools in the  Commonwealth have been selected to participate. Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Villanova, Bloomsburg University  and the Lehigh Carbon Community College will create the curriculum to educate prisoners selected for the grants under  the new Second Chance Pell Grant pilot.  Pennsylvania Department of Corrections Secretary John Wetzel thinks education can be the key to undoing the social  conditions that led to incarceration.  “When you look at who comes in our front door, you have to see the barriers to the success that led them to commit  crime.”  This particular program hopes to address the addiction, mental illness, lack of access to education and sustainable  employment that often leads people to become incarcerated and fall into recidivism.  “I don’t think it’s a silver bullet, but the research has been stunning in its success,” said Wetzel. He added that  throughout the pilot, the state will be tracking program statistics.  Ultimately these Pell Grants will relieve a burden on the taxpayer, Wetzel pointed out. He said it costs $42,000 a years to  incarcerate one individual, not including the financial burden on social services like foster care and the juvenile criminal  system.  “The return on investment is an absolute no‐brainer,” said Wetzel.  Wetzel added the prison population is disproportionately composed of low‐income and/or folks of color due to systemic  racism and class inequality. He hopes this will be a step in undoing some of the damage inflicted before the prisoners  were incarcerated.  In addition to the liberal arts angle that IUP, Villa Nova and Bloomsburg offer, Wetzel was pleased to see the selection of  a community college as they teach “practical, skills to be successful in their community.”  “We’re all invested in people coming out of our prisons and being successful,” said Wetzel.

http://www.post‐gazette.com/opinion/editorials/2016/07/07/Recidivism‐antidote‐Ex‐cons‐need‐a‐seamless‐path‐back‐ to‐Medicaid/stories/201607310016  Recidivism antidote: Ex‐cons need a seamless path back to Medicaid  By the Editorial Board  A person released from a county jail or state prison faces no shortage of challenges readjusting to life in society.  Accessing health care shouldn’t be one of them.  The Legislature has recognized as much by passing a change to the state Human Services Code that would suspend,  rather than terminate, Medicaid benefits while a person is incarcerated for up to two years. The change would make it  easier to restart benefits when an offender is released. That translates into quicker access to psychiatric medications  and other health care services that can help lower recidivism.   Medicaid is a federal‐state program that provides health care to the poor, which many inmates and prisoners are. Right  now, those benefits are terminated during incarceration. Some offenders, but not all, get help applying or reapplying for  Medicaid before they walk free.  Jails and prisons also provide a certain amount of medication to keep released  offenders going until benefits kick back in and they can go to doctors and pharmacies again.   However, these arrangements are far from perfect. The state Department of Human Services needs more than a month  to process a Medicaid application, and some recently released offenders exhaust their prison‐supplied medications or  encounter other health problems in the interim. Inmates at county jails, which have a rapid turnover in population and  provide varying levels of re‐entry assistance, are especially vulnerable.  Offenders need stability — in health care, housing and employment — as quickly as possible if their return to society has  any chance of success. A quicker resumption of Medicaid benefits after confinement — a change pushed through the  Legislature by Republican Sen. Patricia Vance of Cumberland County — would help offenders make the most of their  new start. Faster access to Medicaid rolls also would help the state leverage more federal dollars for offenders’  medications. Gov. Tom Wolf hasn’t signed the legislation but has said he supports the concept behind it.  The state Department of Corrections and Department of Human Services had been working to streamline the re‐entry  process before the Legislature took up Ms. Vance’s bill. Some state prisons have DHS caseworkers to help with Medicaid

After 37 years, inmate pleads for end to solitary confinement  By Angela Couloumbis  HARRISBURG ‐ The question for convicted murderer Arthur Johnson seemed simple: Could he explain what his days are  like, from the moment he wakes to the time he drifts off to sleep, in the 7‐by‐12‐foot prison cell where he has spent  nearly 37 years in solitary confinement?  His response was an unstoppable, eight‐minute soliloquy about despair and mistrust and lessons learned on the street,  the words spilling from his mouth in a crush of thoughts as he tried to convince a federal judge on Wednesday that  nearly four decades is enough time for any one person to spend alone.  "Every single day, you do the exact same thing," Johnson told Judge Christopher C. Conner, chief judge of the U.S.  District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, during a hearing that lasted nearly six hours. "You live by the rules,  you follow the policy, and it doesn't mean anything. . . . It doesn't count."  Johnson, 63, is serving life in prison without parole for the 1970 gang‐related murder of Jerome Wakefield in  Philadelphia. After several attempts at escape ‐ during one, he allegedly bound a prison guard and locked him in a cell ‐  he was placed in solitary  In May, he sued the state Department of Corrections, alleging that he is a victim of cruel and unusual punishment in  violation of the Eighth and 14th Amendments to the Constitution.  4 He is seeking a preliminary injunction to be released back into the general population at the State Correctional Institute  at Frackville, so he can live out the remainder of his life.  The Department of Corrections is fighting his motion, saying he remains at high risk for misbehavior and has signaled  that he has not abandoned his plans to escape as soon as he gets another chance.    Just in the last week, as Johnson was preparing to be transported to Harrisburg for the hearing, "he began to say his  good‐byes . . . and talked about prior escape attempts," Senior Deputy Attorney General Abbegael Giunta, whose office  is representing the Corrections Department, told Conner on Wednesday.  Giunta noted Johnson's level of fitness and his access to books, newspapers, a television, and a radio. She said Johnson's  cell has a small window with a view to the outside; his cell door has another window through which he can see prisoners  in the general population pass by.  "He will not suffer irreparable harm if his injunction is denied," she said.  Another hearing is scheduled for Aug. 11, during which the state will present its witnesses.  Wednesday was Johnson's time.  Led into the courtroom by eight Department of Corrections officers, Johnson shuffled to the witness stand with shackled  feet, fumbling with the microphone for the first few minutes. At first, he spoke too far away from it to be heard, then  too close to it for his voice to be anything but muffled. As he gave testimony, he kept knocking it with his hand.  Under questioning from his attorneys, Johnson said he spends 23 hours each day in his cell. He is allowed outside in the  prison yard for an hour Monday through Friday, but only in a small, caged‐in area. He is allowed showers three times a  week, and he is led there in handcuffs, with a towel wrapped around him.  Before Wednesday, when he walked into the courtroom and shook the hand of one of his attorneys, he said he had not  touched another human being in any meaningful way for nearly 37 years.  Johnson's legal team includes lawyers from the Jones Day law firm in Pittsburgh; Bret Grote from the Abolitionist Law  Center; and Jules Lobel, a professor of law at the University of Pittsburgh.  Craig Haney, a psychology professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who has researched the impact of long‐ term solitary confinement, testified Wednesday that social contact is a basic human need. Solitary confinement,  especially prolonged, "is painful. It's a stressful environment."  Johnson, he said, "has struggled to maintain his sanity."  Sitting quietly in the courtroom Wednesday was Julie Burnett, Johnson's first cousin. She said she was 4 years old when  Johnson went to prison. Seated next to her were two of Johnson's adult grandchildren, who Burnett said Johnson had  never seen ‐ and might not recognize.  As he was led out of the courtroom at the end of Wednesday's hearing, Johnson glanced their way. He nodded his head,  then shuffled off.    ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Lancaster man too late in request from relief from life sentence  By Lindsey Blest  A Lancaster man's request for relief 31 years into his life sentence has been denied by a Pennsylvania court.  Garey Thomas, now 68, was convicted of first‐degree murder after shooting Ricky Coward at King and Plum streets in  1984. Coward was seated on a bicycle when Thomas approached and shot him in the chest just after midnight on June  27.  A criminal complaint filed by a Lancaster city police detective described the shooting as "a planned act" and "done  intentionally with premeditation." Thomas received a life sentence in 1985.  He filed a petition for relief last year, based on a 2013 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that deemed certain mandatory  sentences unconstitutional.   If the petition had been accepted, Thomas would have been eligible for a new trial and potentially a different sentence.  5 A Lancaster County judge denied his petition in December. Thomas then filed with the state Superior Court, which also  denied him relief.   Thomas' petition was too late, according to Assistant District Attorney Julie Slabinski.   The five‐page opinion by the Superior Court states challenges after the 2013 U.S. Supreme Court ruling had to be filed  within 60 days of that ruling. Thomas filed nearly two years later, the opinion states.  Also, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling doesn't apply to sentences that are final and not on active appeal at the time of the  ruling.  Thomas is being held at the state prison in Graterford, Montgomery County.  According to newspaper records, Coward was 31 at the time of the shooting.   A report published on March 15, 1985 stated the men had been at odds since 1982 when Thomas began living with  Coward's wife. The shooting was the culmination of their differences.  Previously, Thomas had been arrested several times. In 1972, he escaped from Lancaster County Prison while serving 11  to 23 months for aggravated assault. He was recaptured and charged with prison breach, but the case ended in a  mistrial.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

By Jeff Morret (inmate at SCI Laurel Highlands)  For far too long we have viewed our nation’s drug problem through the lens of the criminal justice system, creating  grave costs to taxpayers.  The United States has been fighting our “War on Drugs” for five decades. Reaching victory in this war is hopeless. Five  decades, and we are more distant from victory than the day we started. There has to be a reason for this.  Unknown to many is the fact that the prison system has become one of our nation’s biggest industries. The  government’s war has failed to stop the supply. Their new strategy now is trying to arrest and incarcerate their way out  of it. Another failure. We’ve ended up with prisons full of people who cannot function when they get out. We end up  with people’s lives being shattered.  Law enforcement, by now, has to recognize they “will never” be able to arrest and incarcerate their way out of this.  Curbing and disrupting the supply with harsh punishments will do little to no good as it has, until those on the demand  side have access to treatment.  I believe that one of the main causes of all these overdoses is the word “addict” carries with it negative suggestions and  associations: As if addiction is a living, breathing actuality caused by the lack of morals, lack of strength or a flawed  character. It’s this stigma that society has created that keeps the ones who need help alone, hopeless and ashamed.  When people have substance abuse problems, they’re hijacked by cravings. People who are addicts can’t just simply  walk away. However, it’s not because they’re bad or weak; it’s because the receptors in their brain are stuck in the “on  call daily” mode. It's like a craving cycle.  Addiction is an illness centered in the part of the brain that drives instinct and leads to manipulative behaviors such as  lying, cheating and stealing, which in turns leads to shame and guilt.  All the facts, statistics and stories about heroin addiction only tell a small part of the story. The real story is a human  one. One that I’ve come to know well. If it seems as though I’m able to see further than others on this, it’s only because  I’m standing on the shoulders of experience.  Back in the 1970s, Betty Ford admitted she was addicted to alcohol and painkillers. When she announced this, people  sat up and listened, because she had the ear of people in power. Many have died due to this epidemic, and many more  will die again. Unfortunately, those who have learned from those lessons (the parents of dead children) are not the ones  who sit in Congress or state offices with the power to change the system.  We have to change the way our country views addiction – not as a moral failure but as a chronic illness that must be  treated with skill, urgency and compassion. There are many across our nation caught up in addiction. If our government  really wants to approach victory in its War on Drugs, programs must be implemented. Only then can we help those  suffering in the midst of their own storms to learn how to dance in the rain.    6

The two commissioners met with Gary Tennis, the secretary at the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs for the  state, to discuss possible treatment options for the county. The meeting was encouraging, according to McKernan.  "It was a good conversation and he sounded receptive to either further discussion or possibly coming to Lycoming  County to talk about helping us out," McKernan said.  Mirabito said the commissioners are not considering building a new prison right now, and would like to exhaust all other  options first.  Previous projections for building a new prison put the project at roughly $40 million.  In other business, the commissioners unanimously approved final disbursement of $50,000 for the Homes in Need

2014 road‐rage incident, claims racial profiling and political retribution against his father played roles in his arrest and  subsequent trial.  The detectives who tailed Christopher Fitzgerald in an unmarked car on their way to meet an informant did so because  Fitzgerald is black, a civil rights lawsuit filed in federal court alleges.  8 Despite weak evidence, the suit claims, Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin pressed forward with Fitzgerald's  case on simple assault, reckless endangerment and traffic charges as payback because Martin had supported another  candidate for the chief's job his father got.  And county corrections officials stripped Christopher Fitzgerald of his job as a prison guard, even though he was found  not guilty, to further penalize him, the suit claims.  The lawsuit, filed June 24 in U.S. District Court in Allentown, alleges Martin, county detectives, Whitehall Township  police and corrections officials violated Fitzgerald's constitutional rights through malicious prosecution, false arrest and  imprisonment and deliberate indifference to his right to equal protection under the law.  It also alleges the defendants conspired to deprive Fitzgerald of his constitutional rights.  Martin, Whitehall Township Mayor Ed Hozza Jr. and Director of Corrections Edward Sweeney said Tuesday they would  not comment on the allegations. An attorney for Fitzgerald did not respond to messages.  The lawsuit comes nearly two years after the incident that led to Fitzgerald's charges, subsequent claims by his criminal  defense attorney that they were racially motivated and stern warnings from the district attorney that such claims could  ratchet up racial tensions in the city.  Describing the events that led to Fitzgerald's arrest, the lawsuit echoes the narrative defense attorney Jack McMahon  wove during the trial last spring when Fitzgerald was found not guilty.  The suit states Fitzgerald was driving his fiancee to work Aug. 29, 2014, with the couple's 1‐year‐old in the back seat  when he noticed a sedan with dark‐tinted windows following close behind.  He was unaware that the car following him was an unmarked police vehicle driven by county Detectives Christopher  Cruz and Todd Frey, the suit says.  As a corrections officer, Fitzgerald had frequently received threats from inmates who told him their friends on the  outside could cause him harm, the suit says.  The sedan continued to tailgate despite Fitzgerald's slowing to give the other vehicle opportunities to pass. Fitzgerald  then stopped in the right lane and rolled down his window to speak to the occupants of the other car, the suit says.  The suit claims Cruz and Frey pulled alongside Fitzgerald's car and boxed it in. Frey opened the door of the sedan, but  neither detective identified himself as a law enforcement officer, the suit claims.  Fitzgerald then drew his handgun, which he was permitted to carry, and held it at chest level, pointed toward the  ground, according to the suit. It says Cruz and Frey then backed away, but continued to follow Christopher Fitzgerald's  car as he drove away.  They followed Christopher Fitzgerald to the parking lot of the Lehigh Valley Mall, where uniformed Whitehall police  officers joined Cruz and Frey to place Fitzgerald and his fiancee under arrest, the suit says.  The suit alleges Cruz and Frey targeted Fitzgerald because he is black and that they conspired to cover up their actions  by giving false statements. It also alleges the district attorney's office has a history of false arrest and unjust prosecution  against members of minorities and that it proceeded with charges against Fitzgerald because he is black.  The suit also claims Martin proceeded with Fitzgerald's prosecution because Joel Fitzgerald held the Allentown police  chief position Martin had actively sought for former Whitehall police Chief Ted Kohuth.  In Christopher Fitzgerald's criminal trial, the detectives testified that Fitzgerald "brake checked" them as they drove  behind his car on North Seventh Street. The officers said they had a responsibility to stop and check why the driver  ahead was behaving erratically and that they feared for their lives when Fitzgerald pulled his gun.  Jurors heard a 911 call from the detectives — whose radios were in the car's trunk during the undercover operation —  frantically calling for backup. But video recorded by a bystander when police stopped and arrested Fitzgerald showed  him calmly lying on the ground as he shouted "I don't know who you are."  McMahon told jurors Fitzgerald displayed his gun because he was frightened for his family's safety. Assistant District  Attorney Steven Luksa told jurors Fitzgerald "misperceived and misjudged" the situation, and committed a crime by  threatening the men with a gun.  ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐      The Altoona Mirror  (07/06/2016)  Inmate cleared of prison assault  Public defender says lack of video might have made difference in Trice trial  By Kay Stephens  9 HOLLIDAYSBURG ‐ A Blair County jury declined Tuesday to convict a prison inmate of assaulting another inmate, despite  testimony from three inmates, a police officer and a deputy warden.  After about an hour of deliberation, the jury acquitted Talen A. Trice, 21, of a simple assault charge from a Dec. 16, 2015,  fight at the Blair County Prison, where inmate Brandon J. Silver of Bellwood suffered head injuries and was knocked  unconscious.  Silver identified Trice as the man who assaulted him. Fellow inmates Edwin Wilson and Henry Garran Jr. also identified  Trice as the inmate who assaulted Silver.  District Attorney Richard Consiglio put all three inmates on the witness stand, along with Hollidaysburg Borough police  officer Mark Lingafelt, who investigated the fight, and deputy warden Mark Masucci.  "Maybe the lack of video made a difference," Chief Public Defender Russ Montgomery said of the jury's acquittal. "I  know they didn't have video of the assault, but maybe the jury wanted to see what video they had."  Masucci said the assault took place in an area where a stationary camera's view is blocked by a pillar. Of the video  recorded at the time of the fight, Masucci said he reviewed it and provided it to Lingafelt.  "The video wasn't helpful," Lingafelt testified.  Consiglio had Silver, Wilson and Garran testify about the fight and what they observed.  Silver said he was alone in his cell when Trice came toward him and told him to "strap up."  "I turned around to face him, and that's when I got hit in the face," Silver testified.  Wilson said he saw Trice and Silver come out of Silver's cell, with Silver holding his bleeding nose.  Wilson said he pushed a button to summon corrections officers for medical help, then went to get some toilet tissue for  Silver's bloody nose.  Garran said he was with Silver, listening to his account of what happened, when Trice came toward them.  "He kind of forced me out of the way and started hitting Silver," Garran said.  "My coffee went flying," he said. "I could tell (Silver) was dazed, like Mike Tyson just hit him."  Consiglio, surprised by the jury's verdict, said he had no explanation for it.  Jurors contacted by the Mirror either declined comment or did not return phone calls.  In his closing, Montgomery acknowledged that Silver was assaulted but suggested that someone else may have been  behind the attack.  When testifying, Silver said he had problems with some inmates and corrections officers.  Silver also said he was previously assaulted in prison in 2013, but those assaults weren't reported to police.  At the time of the fight, Silver was serving time in connection with theft and receiving stolen goods.  Trice, at the time of the fight, was facing 113 charges in connection with leading police on a high‐speed chase in June  2015 and endangering hundreds of people in the parking lot of the Logan Valley Mall where a carnival was being held.  Trice subsequently entered a guilty plea to some of those charges and was sentenced in April to spend at least two years  in prison. He has also been ordered to return to Maryland to face attempted homicide and robbery charges.      ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐    National Corrections

Weak staff‐search policy aids federal prison smuggling, report says  By Joe Davidson  Are prison employees behind “the persistent problem of contraband smuggling” in federal prisons?  An investigation into the Justice Department’s Federal Bureau of Prisons cites weak and ineffective procedures that  make it easier for workers to get prohibited items to inmates.  And employees, albeit a small percentage, do smuggle.  Justice Department news releases show seven cases of smuggling‐related crimes charged against individuals while they  were federal prison employees so far this year. That does not include staffers disciplined administratively. To put that in  context, contraband represents about 5 percent of the prison staff misconduct cases.  10 A new report from the department’s Office of the Inspector General says 134 BOP staffers, less than 1 percent of the  agency’s workforce, were implicated in substantiated contraband‐related investigations over the two‐year period that  ended in July 2014. More employees might have been investigated directly by the prison system, but a spokesman said  he couldn’t immediately provide that information.  While the portion of employees involved is small, contraband “poses grave dangers” to the 200,000 prison inmates, as  well as staffers, visitors and the public, the report warned. The most common prohibited items found in federal prisons  during fiscal years 2012 through 2014 were cellphones.  “Inmates with cellphones can direct criminal activities from behind bars, including intimidating witnesses and victims,”  Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz said in a statement. “Inmates also have used cellphones to coordinate escapes.  We found that cellphones are one of the most prevalent and dangerous contraband items that the BOP recovers in  federal prisons, with over 8,000 phones confiscated during a recent 3‐year period.” That’s almost eight every day.  Here’s a big problem — “BOP still does not have an effective policy for searching staff when they enter prisons, despite  our raising this issue more than 13 years ago,” Horowitz said. “For example, we found that correctional officers and  other staff entering federal prisons are rarely subject to random pat‐down searches.”  The inspector general’s analysis found that high‐security federal penal institutions do the equivalent of one random pat  search every three months. A staffer could probably escape that.  The BOP agreed with the report’s recommendations and said it “will develop and propose changes to the staff search  policy that includes a minimum frequency and duration requirement for randomly pat searching staff.”  Lackadaisical procedures don’t stop with searches. The inspector general’s office said prison officials do not  “comprehensively and reliably” track recovered smuggled goods and that employees need more guidance and training  on new technologies to detect contraband.  In 2003, the inspector general told prison officials they should require searches of workers and their property when they  enter facilities. Apparently it was not considered a top priority, because a staff‐search policy was not implemented until  10 years later, following talks with the American Federation of Government Employees. That policy lasted only two years  before it was thrown out by the Federal Labor Relations Authority. It acted on a complaint by the union’s Council of  Prison Locals that the search policy had not been “fully negotiated” with the labor organization as required.  Although prison officials agreed that the current level of staff searches are “not conducted with enough frequency to be  an aggressive and effective deterrent,” the report says the bureau is limited because any new policy requires additional  labor negotiations.  While AFGE officials did not comment for this story, the report said union leaders pointed out that relatively few  employees engage in illegal activities and “emphasized that random pat searches subject the rest of the rule‐abiding  staff to harassment, intimidation, and coercion by institution management.” Union officials said they would support  staff searches when there is reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing.  Because it took a decade for prison officials to implement the 2003 recommendation for staff searches, the report said,  “we believe the BOP must make this issue a priority with the goal of much more timely corrective action to improve the  safety of BOP institutions.”  The staff‐search policy was reinstated with minor changes in March. While the policy allows random staff searches, it  does not dictate any level of frequency. Lax policy means searches are rare.  Another problem is that staffers can take containers of any size into work, according to the report, “including duffle  bags, briefcases, and large and small coolers,” contrary to a 16‐year‐old inspector general’s office recommendation  against that: “We reported in 2003 that unrestricted property and large personal containers are among the significant  methods for introducing contraband.”  This contrasts with state prison systems that “employ more stringent measures to deter contraband introductions,” the  report said.  Also, the prison system’s security camera operation has “blind spots known to inmates and staff” that “further reduce  the BOP’s ability to deter contraband introductions.”  The report concluded, “The safety and security of staff and inmates will continue to be at risk until the BOP develops and  implements a comprehensive and effective staff search policy.”

Ex‐Arkansas prison chaplain says guilty in sex assaults  By Jeannie Roberts  ASH FLAT ‐‐ Kenneth Dewitt, the former chaplain at a women's state prison, sat silently and alone in the back row of a  Sharp County courtroom Tuesday for about a half‐hour before he heard his name called.  Four rows directly in front of him sat Wendy Kelley, director of the Arkansas Department of Correction and Dewitt's  former boss. Kelley's gaze followed him, never wavering from Dewitt as he somberly walked down the aisle to the bench  of 3rd Judicial Circuit, Division 1, Judge Harold Erwin.  Standing with his hands folded in front of him, 67‐year‐old Dewitt, sporting a clean‐shaven head and face, and wearing a  gray polo shirt and dark slacks, pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting three female inmates at the McPherson Women's  Unit in Newport.  He quietly answered, "Yes, sir," when Erwin asked if he accepted the plea deal.  Initially charged with 50 counts that carried a possible 500 years in prison, Dewitt was sentenced to 10 years each on  three counts of third‐degree sexual assault, a Class C felony. The sentences are to run concurrently. The judge  suspended five years of each sentence, meaning he will serve five years in the Arkansas Department of Correction.  Dewitt has until Aug. 8 to "get his affairs in order" before beginning his incarceration.  The former prison chaplain answered simply, "Yes, sir," to Erwin's rapid‐fire procedural questions, then looked down at  his feet.  Dewitt's head shot up and he grimaced when Erwin demanded that the attorneys spell out exactly the actions he took to  merit the charges.  "Give me the facts," Erwin said.  Erwin listened as defense attorney Jeff Rosenzweig and prosecutor Henry Boyce relayed the claims of repeated forced  sexual favors from the three inmates in Dewitt's chaplain's office at the prison unit.  "At the time of the offenses, he was an employee of the Arkansas Department of Corrections and used that position of  authority to take advantage of these women," Boyce said.  Dewitt stared directly into the judge's eyes and said loudly, "I did not use my position."  Dewitt never made eye contact with Kelley during Tuesday's court appearance.  Gov. Asa Hutchinson handed the reins of the Correction Department to Kelley in early 2015, the first woman to hold the  position. Kelley began her tenure with the prison in 2006 as the director for health and correctional programs.  Dewitt worked for the agency from 2001 until he was asked to resign last September amid allegations of sexual  misconduct.  The allegations that spurred an investigation by the state Department of Correction's internal affairs office and the  Arkansas State Police spanned from January 2013 to September 2014.  It happened under her watch, a fact she takes to heart.  "He didn't use his position?" Kelley asked rhetorically in an interview after the court hearing, referring to Dewitt's earlier  remarks. "He took advantage of three women for several years. Tell me how that's not abusing your position."  Boyce looked at Kelley and nodded.  "He apparently has a different opinion than I do on the subject," Boyce said.  "He's rationalizing it," Kelley added.  She said she didn't see how the assaults occurred in such a visible location. Dewitt's former office was on the unit's main  hallway and had a floor‐to‐ceiling clear glass window.  "But that clearly wasn't good enough," Kelley said, grimacing. "So we made some moves to prevent that from ever being  able to happen again."  Those moves included knocking down some office walls to make visibility unavoidable. No other employees were  reprimanded as enablers, Kelley said.  "He was calling the women to his office in the mornings when he knew everybody was busy," she said.  Boyce said the prosecution team prepared for the trial by interviewing witnesses and visiting the prison facilities.  "We diagrammed the office space where these crimes took place. We interviewed several other collateral witnesses  within the unit who corroborated the stories of the three victims," Boyce said. "They consistently told the same stories  as far as his modus operandi of how he carried out these acts in his office, which in my opinion gave our case a strong  degree of believability and entered into the process of him admitting his guilt."  12 The three female inmates came forward only after Dewitt was forced to resign last fall when a former employee  admitted to a "moral failure" with Dewitt. Former McPherson Unit inmate Stacey Smith told prison authorities the  sexual relationship with Dewitt began in 2010, six years after she was paroled.  According to documents obtained under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act, Smith continued to work with Dewitt  ‐‐ first as a volunteer, then as a chaplain ‐‐ spending 40 hours a week working with inmates in the faith‐based Principles  and Applications for Life (PAL) program, which Dewitt founded in 1998.  Dewitt's relationship with Smith violated the department's Administrative Directive 12‐33, which prohibits managers  from having sexual relationships with subordinates.  Applications to the faith‐based initiative is competitive. As a leader and as a chaplain, Dewitt could recommend inmates  to the Classification Committee for admittance into the program. The Parole Board looks favorably on inmates who  complete the program, a former prison official told the Arkansas Democrat‐Gazette previously.  "He was paid a salary and he was paid to develop that program," Kelley said outside the courthouse. "And he was being  paid when he took advantage of these women. As taxpayers, everyone should be appalled."  With Dewitt gone from his chaplain position, Kelley said the victims were "no longer fearful of him" and came forward.  One of the inmates told investigators that Dewitt told her that he was going to train her as a mentor for the Principles  and Applications for Life program.  On her first morning of training in 2011, the 35‐year‐old inmate said, Dewitt told her that she "wanted to touch" him  and "wanted to be with" him, according to the affidavits. Dewitt stepped from behind his desk and began touching her,  the affidavits say.  From that point on, the inmate said, she and Dewitt had sexual contact ‐‐ including intercourse and oral sex.  In 2013, after having a hysterectomy, the inmate told Dewitt she wanted to end the sexual relationship. Dewitt told her  "she didn't have a choice." He threatened disciplinary action and that he would ensure that she "would not ever go  home," affidavits say.  The distraught inmate said she considered suicide.  A second inmate, a 40‐year‐old woman who was a clerk in the program, told investigators that Dewitt repeatedly forced  her to perform sexual favors from 2010 until 2014. Dewitt ordered the inmate not to tell anyone and stressed that "no  one would believe her" over him anyway.  Dewitt had a schedule, the inmate said, of sex with one female prisoner on Sunday, another on Monday, and then  another on Wednesday.  Another inmate, also a clerk in the program, said that a sexual relationship with Dewitt began in 2010 and continued  until his resignation. Dewitt began calling her to his office at 6 a.m. on Sundays.  The former chaplain would have her sit in a chair and perform oral sex on him while he stood at the door watching for  anyone approaching down the hall, the inmate said.  The charges against Dewitt came on the heels of an announcement by the U.S. Department of Justice in June 2015 that

Former guard launches hunger strike to protest private prison company  By Madison Pauly  When the Corrections Corporation of America bought two halfway houses in San Diego for $36 million in 2013, the  company seemed committed to maintaining the status quo. CCA said it hoped guards and other employees at the  facilities, known as "residential reentry" centers, would stay on. The company also announced that it would continue  operating the facilities under the old owner's name, Corrections Alternatives, because of its "strong and positive  reputation."  Yet according to a former guard, CCA's acquisition led to cutbacks in staff, food, and programming meant to help  inmates reintegrate into the community. "The transition was ridiculous," says Mark Bartlett, who worked at the Ocean  View reentry facility until he was fired in 2015. "It's turned into a business where they're cutting corners on everything.  Whether it's with cutting staff on payroll, cutting food, the lack of nutrition, cutting programming."  Bartlett, a 33‐year‐old who served as an Army prison guard in Afghanistan and grew up near the San Diego facility,  kicked off a hunger strike on Tuesday evening to protest what he sees as poor conditions at Ocean View. He and a group  of local activists have drawn up a list of demands, compiled with the input of current inmates. Their top demand is that  San Diego County end its contracts with CCA—and they want federal and state agencies to do the same. Bartlett says he  will not eat until the demands are met.  While he was a guard at Ocean View, Bartlett says he began reporting issues, including forged documentation of  searches and falsified hours spent training guards, to the facility's director and to CCA's human resources office. He says  he took a "stress leave" from his job last August after he found that working in the prison was triggering his PTSD. When  he couldn't set a date to return to work, he says, the company let him go.  Bartlett doesn't have records documenting the alleged conditions inside Ocean View. He is demanding that the federal  Bureau of Prisons release its audits of the facility, and that San Diego police and fire departments disclose community  complaints about Ocean View, as well as records of emergency calls there. He is also demanding official investigations of  staffing levels, narcotics use, sanitation, and medical care at Ocean View.  CCA spokesman Jonathan Burns said that the company’s San Diego facilities are "appropriately staffed," and that their  staffing patterns are approved by public agencies. According to Burns, CCA's only cutback at Ocean View in 2013 was  eliminating a single administrative position. He also says that CCA has no record of Bartlett making formal allegations  regarding employee training logs.  CCA, the country's second‐largest private prison operator, leases the reentry facility at Ocean View, which houses local,  state, and federal inmates. It also owns Boston Avenue, a federal reentry facility in San Diego, and the Otay Mesa  Detention Facility, a 1,500‐bed federal immigration detention center south of the city. Its acquisition of the Ocean View  and Boston Avenue facilities in 2013 was its first foray into the business of halfway houses. Since then, its investment in  the sector has grown. It currently owns or runs 25 halfway houses with more than 5,000 beds in six states.  Inmates assigned to halfway houses are typically nearing the end of their sentences. Some are allowed to leave the  facility to go work, while others prepare for employment in training programs and counseling. Catherine Mendonca, a  women's rights activist who will fast alongside Bartlett, wonders whether CCA's San Diego facilities are fulfilling their  promise to help inmates prepare for freedom. "If they're getting proper nutrition, if they're getting opportunities to  actually get a job—all of these are actually questionable," Mendonca says. "Is this actual rehabilitation? Or is this  something to profit off the backs of those incarcerated?"

news&WT.nav=top‐news  Private prison vans’ long road of neglect (Mentions PA)  By Eli Hager and Alysia Santo  In July 2012, Steven Galack, the former owner of a home remodeling business, was living in Florida when he was  arrested on an out‐of‐state warrant for failing to pay child support. Mr. Galack, 46, had come to the end of a long  downward spiral, overcoming a painkiller addiction only to struggle with crippling anxiety. Now, he was to be driven  more than a thousand miles to Butler County, Ohio, where his ex‐wife and three children lived, to face a judge.  Like dozens of states and countless localities, Butler County outsources the long‐distance transport of suspects and  fugitives. Mr. Galack was loaded into a van run by Prisoner Transportation Services of America, the nation’s largest for‐ profit extradition company.  Crammed around him were 10 other people, both men and women, all handcuffed and shackled at the waist and ankles.  They sat tightly packed on seats inside a cage, with no way to lie down to sleep. The air conditioning faltered amid 90‐ degree heat. Mr. Galack soon grew delusional, keeping everyone awake with a barrage of chatter and odd behavior. On  the third day, the van stopped in Georgia, and one of two guards onboard gave a directive to the prisoners. “Only body  shots,” one prisoner said she heard the guard say. The others began to stomp on Mr. Galack, two prisoners said.  The guards said later in depositions that they had first noticed Mr. Galack’s slumped, bloodied body more than 70 miles  later, in Tennessee. A homicide investigation lasted less than a day, and the van continued on its journey. The cause of  death was later found to be undetermined.  “This is someone’s brother, father, and it’s like nobody even cared,” said Mr. Galack’s ex‐wife, Kristin Galack.  Every year, tens of thousands of fugitives and suspects — many of whom have not been convicted of a crime — are  entrusted to a handful of small private companies that specialize in state and local extraditions.  A Marshall Project review of thousands of court documents, federal records and local news articles and interviews with  more than 50 current or former guards and executives reveals a pattern of prisoner abuse and neglect in an industry  that operates with almost no oversight.  Since 2012, at least four people, including Mr. Galack, have died on private extradition vans, all of them run by the  Tennessee‐based Prisoner Transportation Services. In one case, a Mississippi man complained of pain for a day and a  half before dying from an ulcer. In another, a Kentucky woman suffered a fatal withdrawal from anti‐anxiety medication.  And in another, guards mocked a prisoner’s pain before he, too, died from a perforated ulcer.  Robert Downs, the chief operating officer of P.T.S., declined to comment on the deaths. He said guards were instructed  to contact local officials when a serious medical emergency arises. “Unless it’s life or death, we can’t open the cage on  the vehicle,” Mr. Downs said. “We don’t know if they’re setting us up for something.” This concern was echoed by  guards at several companies, who said prisoners often feigned illnesses and injuries.  Training for guards, many of whom are military veterans, is often limited to a tutorial on handcuffs and pepper spray and  a review of policies and paperwork, leaving them unprepared for the hazards of driving a van full of prisoners. At least  60 prisoners have escaped from private extradition vehicles since 2000, including one who later stabbed a police officer  and another who was accused of sexual assault on a minor and is still missing.  The companies are usually paid per prisoner per mile, giving them incentive to pack the vans and take as few breaks as  possible. Crashes have killed a dozen prisoners and guards.  15 Operating primarily across the South and Midwest, guards travel up to weeks at a time along circuitous routes, typically  picking up and dropping off prisoners in 15‐passenger vans or sometimes minivans retrofitted with interior caging and  darkened windows.  These vans do not have prisoner beds, toilets or medical services. Violent felons are mixed with first‐time suspects. A  plexiglass divider is usually the only thing separating women from men.  At least 14 women have alleged in criminal or civil court since 2000 that they were sexually assaulted by guards while  being transported by these companies.  “Just stay in jail. It’s better,” said Lauren Sierra, 21, who said she was repeatedly sexually assaulted by a guard in 2014  while being transported by U.S. Corrections, a rapidly growing company registered in North Carolina.  Ms. Sierra, who is suing the company, was taken into custody after she faced charges, later dropped, that she used  someone else’s Bed, Bath & Beyond gift card. Dustin Baldwin, the executive director of U.S. Corrections, declined to  comment beyond saying that the accusations had not been proved.  Because the vans cross state lines, accountability falls into a gray zone. Jurisdictions that hire the companies often  disavow responsibility for prisoners not under their direct custody, and federal regulators have largely ignored the  industry.  “It’s like the airport shuttle from hell,” said Zachary Raines, a former P.T.S. guard.  Strained Jails and Budgets  At a time when a swollen United States prison and jail population has strained law enforcement budgets, transport  companies offer a significantly cheaper alternative to traditional extradition, in which local deputies are sent miles out of state for one person.  Continue reading the main story  “Some agencies take huge advantage of the taxpayers’ money by sending deputies ‘on vacation’ to extradite an inmate,”  said Mr. Baldwin of U. S. Corrections, and pay them “a considerable amount of overtime” for doing so. They also have to  cover fuel costs or plane tickets and, often, hotel rooms.  Private vans can save considerably by picking up and dropping off other prisoners along the way, charging 75 cents to  $1.50 a mile per prisoner.  Corrections departments in 26 states, law enforcement in cities such as Chicago, Atlanta and Las Vegas, and local  agencies nationwide use extradition companies. Although about two dozen private prisoner transport companies have  registered with the Department of Transportation, only seven have state‐level extradition contracts, with P.T.S. having  the most by far.  But maintaining tight profit margins depends on relentlessly shaving time and costs on the road, industry veterans said.  “You route the prisoner like a package, but miss a single deadline, and you lose money,” said Kent Bradford, a former  director of operations for TransCor America, a subsidiary of Corrections Corporation of America, the largest private  prison company in the United States. TransCor stopped performing extraditions in 2008 because of liability and cost  concerns, but still moves prisoners between C.C.A. locations.  Guards — who earn about $150 to $250 per 24‐hour shift, and who rotate driving duty — are generally paid only while  they are on the road. Because they often have to pay out‐of‐pocket for a hotel room, most said they rarely chose to  stop.  Bunking overnight also requires finding a jail willing to offer beds and showers to prisoners, which is difficult because  jails do not always want to house unknown prisoners from other jurisdictions.  “I’d have an exhaust fan installed in the hall to get that smell out,” said David Osborne, who runs the Daviess County  Detention Center in Kentucky, which used to be a P.T.S. hub for transferring and housing prisoners en route.  To keep up with demand, vans drive across as many as a dozen states on a single trip. “The bosses would be on the  phone, saying, ‘What, you can’t do it? You can’t push it, you can’t make it to the next jail?’ ” said Fernando Colon, who  worked as a guard for two years, first for a company that is now defunct and then for U.S. Corrections.  On most trips, every meal for days is a fast‐food sandwich. Water is rationed and bathroom stops limited. Prisoners who  cannot wait often urinate in bottles or on themselves, and sometimes defecate on the floor of the van, according to  guards and lawsuits.  “People were screaming, complaining, passing out. I threw up,” said Roberta Blake, 37, who spent two weeks in 2014  being transported by P.T.S. from California to Alabama, including a week in a stifling van.  Lacking both privacy and sanitary napkins, she had to use a cup in front of the male guards and prisoners when she  began menstruating. After another prisoner ripped off her shirt, she spent the rest of the trip in a sports bra. Ms. Blake,  16 whose account was confirmed by two other prisoners in the van, had been arrested on a warrant issued after she failed  to return a rental car on time.  For some prisoners, the ride ends in serious injury, or even death.  Michael Dykes, who has diabetes, had both of his legs amputated after three days in an Inmate Services Corporation van  in July 2012. Mr. Dykes said he had already been in declining health when he got into the van after spending nearly three  weeks in a South Carolina jail with poor medical care. But once in transport to Missouri, his condition worsened, he said. Black sores on his toes were exacerbated by pressure from ankle shackles, a lawsuit alleges, and his repeated requests  for medical care were ignored. His insulin, which must be kept cold, was stored on the dashboard in the sun, Mr. Dykes  said.  Randy Cagle Jr., the president of the Arkansas‐based Inmate Services Corporation, denied the accusations. “We always  follow protocol and get medical information when we pick an inmate up,” he wrote in an email. “I am confident that we  will be vindicated.”  Mr. Cagle said in a brief phone interview that some prisoners lied or sued frivolously. “You are not going to get through  this business without hurting people’s feelings,” he said. “You just have to remember to treat people fair.”  When suspects are arrested on a warrant, they often spend considerable time in a local jail before being picked up for  extradition. About a dozen guards from several transport companies said jails provided substandard medical care and  little information about prisoners’ health status or prescribed medications, which the guards are expected to dispense  en route. Guards are not required by law to have any medical experience other than training in cardiopulmonary  resuscitation.  “They did an hourlong class on their policies, taught us to put on handcuffs, gave us our uniforms and put us on the  road. And then we’re expected to deal with this stuff,” said Kenneth Adams, one of two guards aboard a P.T.S. van in  which Denise Isaacs, 54, died in Miami in 2014.  Like Mr. Galack, Ms. Isaacs began experiencing bizarre symptoms while on board: muttering, drooling and gasping.  When she was unable to climb back into the van after a stop, the guards phoned P.T.S. headquarters. But their  supervisors said to keep going, Mr. Adams told investigators with the Miami‐Dade Police Department.  “I would have taken her to the hospital,” the other guard, Kirk Westbrooks, said in an interview with The Marshall  Project. “I wanted to.”  Ms. Isaacs, who had been arrested on charges of violating probation on a theft conviction, died a few hours later in a  Taco Bell parking lot. An autopsy later found that she had been experiencing delirium tremens caused by withdrawal  from diazepam, an anti‐anxiety medication that P.T.S. staff members said they were never informed she was taking.  The Miami‐Dade police closed the investigation after determining that the death was from natural causes.  In January of this year, P.T.S. guards transporting William Culpepper Jr., 36, from Kentucky to Mississippi told officials at  a stop at a company jail hub in Missouri that they believed he was faking stomach pains, according to a sheriff’s report.  Mr. Culpepper, who was wanted for a parole violation, died minutes later from what the coroner handling his case called  a “perfectly treatable” perforated ulcer.  It was the second time in two years that a P.T.S. prisoner had died from a perforated ulcer. In 2014, William Weintraub,  47, a former physics professor charged with threatening a South Carolina newspaper over an article he disputed, was  found blue and covered in urine in the back of a P.T.S. van when it reached Georgia.  Investigators there determined that P.T.S. guards had mocked Mr. Weintraub’s complaints of severe stomach pain. The  investigation was closed.  In 1993, he molested and murdered his 11‐year‐old North Dakota neighbor, Jeanna North. Six years later, he escaped  from a private transport van. His absence was not noticed for nine hours, and guards did not notify the police for  another two hours. The escape warranted a segment on “America’s Most Wanted.”  After the episode, Byron Dorgan, then a Democratic United States senator from North Dakota, introduced a measure to  impose controls on the industry. “My colleagues and I were all shocked that a guy and his wife with an S.U.V. could start  a business to haul violent offenders around with no requirements,” Mr. Dorgan said. The law, commonly known as  Jeanna’s Act, passed in 2000.  Jeanna’s Act mandates that extradition companies must notify local law enforcement immediately after an escape, dress  violent prisoners in brightly colored clothing and maintain a ratio of one guard for every six prisoners. It also sets broad  standards for training and background checks of guards, and for treatment of prisoners.  But the federal law is almost never enforced. The Justice Department could identify just one instance: In 2011, a suspect  accused of child molestation escaped from an unlocked van in North Dakota, a few hours from where Jeanna had been  17 murdered. Local farmers cleared a cornfield to flush him out. The company, Extradition Transport of America, was fined  $80,000 and went out of business.  “Well, it’s regulated by the Department of Justice, but I’ve never seen anybody come out to actually check on us,” said  Mr. Downs, the chief operating officer of P.T.S. “We’re just supposed to follow the guidelines.”  Extradition companies are not required to report escapes to federal regulators, and there is no centralized tracking. But  a review of dozens of local news accounts shows that since Jeanna’s Act was passed, at least 56 prisoners were reported  to have escaped from for‐profit extradition vehicles. At least 16 were reported to have committed new crimes while on  the run.  By comparison, the prison systems of California, Florida and Texas — which together transport more than 800,000  inmates every year, most of them in‐state — have each had just one prisoner escape from transport vehicles over the  same period.  “We thought we’d closed the door on this,” Mr. Dorgan said in reference to the widespread use of small extradition  companies and the escapes that have occurred.  While the Department of Transportation has no role in responding to escapes or prisoner mistreatment, it is responsible  for monitoring vehicle and driver safety, including whether guards get enough downtime away from the wheel, under  the same regulations that govern all passenger carriers.  A Marshall Project review of Department of Transportation records shows that the agency’s monitoring is infrequent,  and companies are typically given advance notice of an audit. Between 2000 and 2015, records indicate, the department  issued fines 20 times, most below $10,000. While P.T.S. has been registered with the department since at least 2005, the  agency did not audit the company until 2009, records show. U.S. Corrections, which was founded in 2014, was audited  for the first time in March.  Because passenger carriers are not required to specify to the Transportation Department what kinds of people they  move around, a department spokesman said he could not comment on specifics about the prisoner transport industry.  Local news reports and court records show that there have been more than 50 crashes involving private extradition  vehicles since 2000. In almost every instance, the prisoners were shackled but not wearing seatbelts, leaving them  unable to brace themselves.  In addition to the dozen deaths, a dozen prisoners have suffered injuries to their necks, skulls or spines, according to  lawsuits, hospital reports and accident reports obtained from state and local agencies.  Fatigue seems to have played a role in many of the accidents. Of 26 accidents for which a time could be determined, 14  occurred between midnight and 6 a.m.  Mr. Downs, who took over operations at P.T.S. after it merged last year with one of its biggest competitors, the Florida‐ based U.S. Prisoner Transport, said he had taken steps to make the company safer. The company had already installed  sleeper berths for guards in its vans.  Mr. Downs said its agents were now required to stay in a company‐paid hotel room every 36 hours, although he said  that was not always possible because of scheduling pressures. The company also has three full‐size buses and has  bought four larger shuttle buses, all with bathrooms on board, in addition to its fleet of nearly 30 vans. Guards are  monitored by GPS, and their pay has been increased, Mr. Downs said.  “It’s a tough industry,” he said. “The profit margins aren’t as good as you would think they are.” He declined to answer a  list of written questions about specific occurrences in the company’s vans.  Security Transport Services, which is based in Topeka, Kan., and has been in the business since 1990, says it puts all  prisoners in seatbelts and requires agents to stay in a hotel every night. A Kansas sheriff said the company had also  partly reimbursed his department for the cost of a manhunt after a 2012 escape, which is required by law in cases of  negligence but rarely occurs, according to a survey of law enforcement officials in jurisdictions where escapes occurred. But the company charges about 30 percent more than its competitors, said Tom Rork, its vice president. Security  Transport Services has contracts with three state corrections departments, compared with nearly 20 held by P.T.S., and  it recently lost its Pennsylvania contract to U.S. Corrections.  P.T.S. says in federal filings that it has “contracts or relationships” with about 800 agencies. It is also poised to acquire  U.S. Corrections, one of its main competitors, next month, according to a filing with the national Surface Transportation  Board.  Answers Are Elusive  After Mr. Galack’s death, his brother, Robert, made repeated calls to the Tennessee authorities, trying to determine  what had happened. “I mean, he was fully in shackles and ended up dead?” he said.  18 It was hard to find answers. Only one prisoner in the van, Chelsie Hogsett, told investigators that Mr. Galack had been  beaten. Another, Joseph Allen, did not confirm the account until a later civil suit.  The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation decided within eight hours of arriving at the scene that if a crime had occurred, it  had happened in Georgia. It sent the van on its way. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation declined to follow up, records  show.  The medical examiner noted Mr. Galack’s injuries — a broken rib, bruises on his head, torso, arms and legs, a broken  tooth and cuts around his nose and eyes — but did not believe they had led to his death.  The investigation was determined to be “as thorough as the circumstances warranted,” said Josh DeVine, a spokesman  for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.  Anthony Dwyer, the chief deputy of the sheriff’s office in Butler County, Ohio, said he had been told only that a prisoner  had died en route, not that a beating might have been involved. “It wasn’t really our responsibility,” he said. He said he  monitored P.T.S.’s performance by speaking to prisoners when they arrive.  Darnell Ball, one of the guards in the van that transported Mr. Galack, declined to comment, citing a confidentiality  agreement. The other, Leroy Creese, did not respond to two attempts to contact him at an address believed to be his  home. A P.T.S. official said in a deposition taken in a civil lawsuit that Mr. Galack had sustained the injuries in a fall in the  van.  This spring, Mr. Galack’s family won a confidential settlement against P.T.S. But Mr. Galack’s son, Jordan, found it paltry  consolation. Now 20, he had talked to his father every day on the phone and lost 30 pounds after his father’s death.  Kristin Galack said she had never had any idea what her ex‐husband would face when he was arrested. “Steve and the  other people on these vans, they’ve made mistakes,” Ms. Galack said. “But that doesn’t mean he couldn’t come back  from it. People do.”  Three months after Mr. Galack was found in the back of the van, P.T.S. sent Butler County a bill for $1,061 — the cost of  the 752 miles he was transported before dying.

8 Georgia prisons on lockdown after death of inmate, brawl that injured 16  By the Associated Press  ATLANTA (AP) — Authorities say eight Georgia prisons are on lockdown after a bloody June that included the killing of an

https://lasvegassun.com/news/2016/jul/06/nevada‐prisons‐ending‐segregation‐of‐hiv‐positive/  Nevada prisons ending segregation of HIV‐positive inmates  By Cy Ryan  19 CARSON CITY —  Faced with the threat of a federal lawsuit, the Nevada prison system will no longer apply segregation  policies that deny inmates with HIV access to work programs where other prisoners earn credits to reduce the length of  their sentences.  The state Department of Corrections “will not support denying an inmate a job or housing an inmate differently from  the general population based on the reasoning that they have HIV or other blood‐borne disease,” prisons chief James  Dzurenda said.  Dzurenda instructed prison officials not to disclose the condition of HIV‐infected inmates to correctional officers or  those who assign work details. He also said medical records that identify HIV inmates must be kept confidential.  Justice Department lawyers warned Nevada's attorney general last month that they might sue the state under the  Americans with Disabilities Act if it didn't change the policies based largely on unfounded fears about the transmission  of HIV.  They recommended the state pay compensatory damages to inmates who've been discriminated against — and in some  cases threatened and harassed — as a result of the "medically unnecessary" segregation policy that stigmatizes those  with HIV.  HIV, the human immunodeficiency virus, causes AIDS but cannot be transmitted through ordinary activities such as  shaking hands or sharing drinking glasses, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  Rebecca Bond, chief of the Justice Department's Disability Rights Section, notified the state in a June 20 letter it's  violating the ADA by routinely denying HIV‐infected inmates — and some others with mobility disabilities — assignment  to low‐custody facilities, including conservation camps and transitional housing where inmates earn the most work  credits.  "No inmate should have to stay in segregated housing because of a HIV diagnosis or serve a longer sentence because of  a disability," said Vanita Gupta, deputy assistant U.S. attorney general and head of the department's Civil Rights Division. "Real and lasting reform in Nevada will require not only systemic changes in its policies, practices and procedures, but  also a commitment to address unfounded stereotypes, fears and assumptions about individuals with disabilities," Gupta  said.  Nevada law says these inmates must be segregated from other prisoners if there is a risk of transmitting the virus by  battery, sexual activity or use of illegal drugs.  Mike Willden, chief of staff for Gov. Brian Sandoval, said there will have to be a change in Nevada law to comply with the  federal statute.  The Justice Department launched an ADA compliance review in Nevada after receiving complaints from two inmates at  the High Desert State Prison in Indian Springs. After interviewing more than 30 inmates and more than 20 corrections  workers, the department concluded Nevada's "house alike/house alone" policy "stigmatizes inmates with HIV and  indiscriminately disclosed their confidential HIV status to NDOC employees and inmates."  As a result, inmates with HIV have been exposed to "potential harm from inmates who may hold unfounded fears of, or  prejudices against, those with HIV," the department said, adding that other "inmates have harassed or threatened those  whom they believe have HIV."  The department noted the CDC has concluded HIV "cannot be transmitted through ordinary daily activities such as  sharing toilets, sharing dishes or drinking glasses, shaking hands, hugging, touching, sneezing, coughing or exposure to  the saliva, tears or sweat of a person with HIV."  Nevada's policy actually allows for inmates with HIV to work in the prison kitchen.  "But some NDOC employees either are unaware of, or have knowingly disregarded, this policy," the report said. It said  some inmates' jobs have been terminated upon discovery that they have HIV.    ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐      Amy Worden   Press Secretary  Department of Corrections  1920 Technology Parkway   Mechanicsburg, PA  17050  Phone: 717‐728‐4026  www.cor.pa.gov    20 Kristen M.

The Centre County Commissioners urged everyone to bike to work or try cycling for fun, fitness or transportation. To celebrate Bike to Work Week, President Judge Thomas Kistler and Vice Chair of the Centre County Commissioners, Mark Higgins biked from State College to the Courthouse in Bellefonte on Tuesday, May 17th. This is a distance of about 14 miles through the beautiful countryside between State College and Bellefonte. They arrived at the Courthouse around 7:30AM. The Judge and the Commissioner both said, “Biking to work is an efficient and fun way to get the exercise you need, without having to find extra time to work out. And this year, with gasoline prices rising again, biking to work makes more sense than ever.” For more information visit www.centrecountypa.gov. Following are some tips that will help you enjoy biking to work more. Have your bike checked over by your local bike shop.    Always wear a helmet to protect your head in the event of a crash. Ride in the right-most lane that goes in the direction that you are traveling.    Obey all stop signs, traffic lights and lane markings. Look before you change lanes or signal a turn; indicate your intention, then act. Be visible and predictable at all times; wear bright clothing and signal turns.

PRISON INSPECTION An inspection regarding compliance with PA Title 37 was held by the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections on March 15, 2016. Our Facility achieved 100% compliance on the inspection. This level of compliance was achieved with all staff working together as a TEAM. We regularly receive comments from the public that the facility is immaculately clean and has the appearance of a facility that only recently opened. In fact, the facility opened in 2005. Our Staff consistently dress and act in a professional manner. The Staff are caring and concerned about the safety of the public, safety and well being of both the staff and inmates. Prior to Warden Smith’s assignment to the Centre County Correctional Facility he was approached by four men that had been incarcerated at CCCF. They stated that they were embarrassed to admit that they had been incarcerated in several correctional facilities in their life, but stated that the only place they were ever incarcerated where they felt safe was in the Centre County Correctional Facility. As a Corrections Professional that was the ultimate compliment that facility staff can receive. This means that our staff operate the facility in a caring, fair and humane manner having complete control of the facility.

Page 8 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: PRISON um ?08. 4 A NOTE FROM PRISON Centre County Government Page 10 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: PRISON 2016 National Corrections Officer’s Week May 1—May 7 In 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed Proclamation 5187 creating “National Corrections Officers’ Week.” The first full week in May has since been recognized as National Correctional Officers’ Week to honor the work of correctional officers and correctional personnel nationwide. In 1996, Congress officially changed the name of the week to National Correctional Officers and Employees Week. The names of 585 correctional officers are engraved on the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial. These courageous heroes are forever remembered, and their light continues to shine through their memory, and through the selfless men and women who continue to serve each day. Proclamation 5187 - National Correctional Officers Week, 1984 May 5, 1984 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Correctional officers have the difficult and often dangerous assignment of ensuring the custody, safety and well-being of the over 600,000 inmates in our Nation's prisons and jails. Their position is essential to the day-to-day operations of these institutions; without them it would be impossible to achieve the foremost institutional goals of security and control. Historically, correctional officers have been viewed as "guards," occupying isolated and misunderstood positions in prisons and jails. In recent years, the duties of these officers have become increasingly complex and demanding. They are called upon to fill, simultaneously, custodial, supervisory and counseling roles. The professionalism, dedication and courage exhibited by these officers throughout the performance of these demanding and often conflicting roles deserve our utmost respect. The important work of correctional Officers often does not receive the recognition from the public it deserves. It is appropriate that we honor the many contributions and accomplishments of these men and women who are a vital component of the field of corrections. In recognition of the contributions of correctional officers to our Nation, the Congress, by Senate Joint Resolution 132, has designated the week beginning May 6, 1984, as "National Correctional Officers Week," and authorized and requested the President to issue an appropriate proclamation. Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning May 6, 1984, as National Correctional Officers Week. I call upon officials of State and local governments and the people of the United States to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies and activities. In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and eighth. RONALD REAGAN Page 1 1 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: PRISON Organization offering hope in opiate, heroin epidemic BY EILEEN MCKINNEY There is an opiate and heroin epidemic sweeping our nation, and it is directly affecting our local commu- nity by taking lives and devastating families. In September 2015, the Centre County Criminal Justice Advisory Board, a board that has been in- strumental in developing, expanding and implement- ing a variety of successful programs and initiatives within Centre County, created a drug overdose subcommittee. They were tasked with examining drug overdoses and overdose-related deaths occurring within the county and to determine what steps should be taken. According to the Centre County Coroner?s Of?ce, there were 16 overdose- related deaths in 2014, 15 deaths in 2015 and already in 2016, there have been 12 overdose deaths. In each of these deaths, it was determined that COMMUNITIES either heroin or multiple drugs were used. Many non-fatal overdoses occur but are not always record- ed. Given this alarming information, the subcom- mittee quickly realized that something needs to be done to bring awareness to the community and work to reduce the number of over- doses and overdose-related deaths in Centre County. At the beginning of 2016, the subcommittee began to meet more frequently and representatives from addi- tional entities were in- cluded in those meetings. By May 2016, the sub- committee evolved and the Centre County Heroin, Opiod, Prevention, Educa- tion Initiative was formal- ized. This group includes the Board of Commission- ers, the coroner and repre- sentatives from the Centre County CIAB, Dnig and Alcohol Of?ce, Criminal Justice Planning Depart- ment, law enforcement, Mount Nittany Medical Center, District Anomcy?s Office, Probation Depart. ment, county EMS/first responders, Centre County Correctional Facility, Youth Service Bureau and Chil- dren and Youth Services. vision is to col- laboratively work to elim- inate substance abuse, including the unsettling rise in opiate drug use and overdoses. They plan to achieve this goal through dedicated outreach, effec- tive education, raising awareness and offering support and treatment options to all members of our community. This year, the Ferguson Township, Patton Town- ship and State College police departments began carrying Naloxone,an opioid overdose anecdote. One of many initiatives HOPE is working on is to bring awareness to the community about the Good Samaritan Law, a law that permits certain criminal and civil protections for those who reach out to the authorities for help in an overdose emergency. For the law to apply, the person witnessing an overdose must call 911, remain on scene and cooperate with authorities. Individuals are encouraged not to run but to stay and call for help in order to save a life. HOPE has scheduled a town hall meeting for 7-9 pm. July 26 in the Mount Nittany Medical Center auditorium to begin to raise awareness and in- volve the community in ?ghting the opiate and heroin epidemic. Members of the community are strongly urged to attend the meeting to provide their perspective on the issue and learn more about what they can do to be- come involved. Together, we can work toward erad- icating drug overdoses and overdose deatln in our community. Eileen McKinney is a HOPE member and executive secretary of Centre County Criminal lattice Planning arrmenr. Page 12 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: PRISON PREA AUDIT REPORT 6/14/2016 PREA Compliance Manager: Jeffrey T. Hite AUDIT FINDINGS (NARRATIVE) (Auditor: Patrick Zirpoli) The first Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) audit of the Centre County Correctional Facility took place on June 8, 2016 and June 9, 2016. The purpose of the audit was to determine compliance with the Prison Rape Elimination Act standards which became effective August 20, 2012. Prior to the on-site portion of the audit I reviewed all policies and data pertaining to the PREA Standards. The facility was posted on March 1, 2016, allowing time for inmates to respond to me in writing, no inmates responded. I mailed a flash drive to the facility on March 1, 2016, this was returned to me on May 16, 2016, allowing ample time to review all policies and procedures prior to the onsite audit. All documentation requested by me was provided in a timely and efficient manner, any follow up requests were acted upon immediately. I wish to extend my appreciation to Warden Richard C. Smith and all of the staff for their professionalism they demonstrated throughout the audit and their willingness to comply with all request and recommendations made. I would also like to thank Centre County Correctional Facility Prison Board for their commitment to the operations of the Centre County Correctional Facility, and their dedication to the safety of the staff, as well as their dedication to the care, custody and control of the inmates incarcerated at the facility. I need to recognize Director of Treatment/PREA Coordinator Jeffrey T. Hite, and Lieutenant Jonathan Millinder. It is through their dedication and overall work ethic that Centre County Correctional Facility performed exceptionally well during the PREA Audit. They worked with me tirelessly through the audit process, and fulfilled any request I made. I would like to also recognize the Treatment staff for their assistance in preparation for the PREA Audit, and organizing all of the requested material for review. The administration of the facility, more specifically the Lieutenant’s, need to be recognized for their overall dedication to the operations of the facility, and their availability to the inmates. During the inmate interviews every interviewee expressed the accessibility of the administration, and especially the Lieutenant’s. Every interviewee told me that they are constantly touring the housing units and are available for questions and always take the time to assist if an inmate is having a problem. Furthermore the inmates related that they would check on them the next time they were making rounds through the block. Prior to the onsite audit I had several opportunities to discuss the audit process, and expectations of the facility with Director of Treatment/PREA Coordinator Jeffrey T. Hite. Upon my arrival on June 8, 2016 I met with Warden Richard C. Smith., Deputy Warden Melanie Gordon, Director of Treatment/PREA Coordinator Jeffrey T. Hite, Lieutenant Jonathan Millinder, and Krista Davis, Centre County Risk Management Coordinator. We discussed the audit process and the schedule for the next two days, it was at this time that I requested a copy of the current inmate population and staff schedules for the next four shifts. Page 13 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: PRISON After the entrance meeting I was given a tour of all areas of the facility. During this tour informal interviews were conducted with both staff and inmates in several different areas. I viewed the complete facility, all areas were accessible to me during the audit tour. During the interview portion of the audit twenty one formal staff interviews were conducted, as well as in depth discussions with other staff available during the tour. Included in the interviews were the Warden, Deputy Warden, PREA Coordinator, Medical Staff, Shift Supervisors, Counselors, Kitchen Staff, Volunteers, and First Line Staff. The staffs interviewed were randomly selected by obtaining a copy of all staff working during the audit, I then selected random staff from different areas within the facility, as well as all three shifts. Also during the interview portion twenty inmates at the facility were interviewed. I selected the inmates by randomly selecting them from the current population sheet, the inmates were selected from all housing units. The selected inmates included those who have identified as gay or bisexual, inmates identified as high risk for sexual victimization, and inmates who reported sexual harassment. All of the interviews were conducted in a very efficient manner; this was accomplished by the efforts of all staff of the Centre County Correctional Facility, but more specifically Treatment/PREA Coordinator Jeffrey T. Hite, Lieutenant Jonathan Millinder. The facility was prepared for the onsite audit and performed extremely well. Looking at the overall performance of the facility I was impressed with not only the facilities operations but the overall agencies operations and response to incidents of sexual abuse or sexual harassment. The seriousness of incidents of this nature are not overlooked by both staff and inmates alike. The interactions with the staff were positive and all were extremely helpful in making the audit process run as seamless as possible. I utilized an overall methodology to make my determination of compliance with the standards. This included a complete review of all policies and documentation provided to me prior to the onsite audit. The documentation was then corroborated through visual inspection of the facility, as well as interviews with staff and inmates. I was able to determine that the facility has the policies in place to address all standards, and has put these policies into daily practice. In the standard-by-standard discussion I have specifically identified the policies and documentation utilized during this process, these policies and documentation are listed verbatim in italic type. I have also listed any visual evidence, as well as interviews that aided. Centre County Correctional Facility has exceeded in 4 standards, met 38 standards, and 1 standard is not applicable to the facility. This determination was made after reviewing all materials provided during the pre-audit, the interviews and facility tour conducted during the audit, and the final review of all findings. Number of standards not met = 0 Centre County Government Page 14 A NOTE FROM: PRISON MELANIE GORDON EARNS NATIONAL JAIL MANAGER CERTIFICATION Deputy Warden Melanie Gordon recently received the national designation of Certified Jail Manager (CJM) by the authority of the American Jail Association through the Jail Manager Certification Commission.

The award was presented by Judge Linda Ludgate Page 18 Centre County Government A NOTE FROM: CRIMINAL JUSTICE PLANNING TOWN HALL MEETING: The Heroin and Opioid Crisis in Centre County on Tuesday, July 26, 2016, at the Galen and Nancy Dreibelbis Auditorium of the Mount Nittany Medical Center from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. The Centre County HOPE (Heroin and Opioid Prevention and Education) Initiative is a coalition compromised of local representatives from County government, the courts, law enforcement, the medical profession, the treatment field, and a variety of community organizations that are concerned about the heroin and opioid/prescription drug epidemic currently sweeping across the nation and the Commonwealth. The mission of Centre County Hope Initiative is to bring various community agencies together to work collaboratively with community members to eliminate substance abuse, including the unsettling rise in opiate drug use, overdoses, and overdose deaths. In recent years drug overdose deaths have surpassed the number of motor vehicle accident deaths, and are now the leading cause of accidental death across the United States. The Centers for Disease Control reported there were 47,055 drug overdose deaths in the United States in 2014, and 2,489 of those deaths occurred in Pennsylvania. That means in 2014, nearly 7 people died each day of a drug overdose in Pennsylvania. Centre County has not escaped this epidemic. According to the Centre County Coroner, 15 people died as a result of drug overdoses in 2015, and 12 people have died of overdoses during the first six months of 2016. In Pennsylvania and around the country, opiate addiction affects men and women of all ages, races, geographic locations, and socio-economic status. Anyone can become addicted. Anyone! The Centre County HOPE Initiative seeks to raise awareness not only about the national heroin and opioid epidemic, but also the impact the crisis is having on our state, and most importantly our local community. All are welcome to attend, which is the first in a series of three planned town hall meetings. To RSVP or for additional information please call 814-234-6727.

EMA office participated in a joint search and rescue exercise with Medic 24, Howard and Milesburg Fire companies, The PA National Guard, PEMA – PaHART, (Helicopter Aerial Rescue Team and Life Lion medivac. The scenario was an injured ATV rider and it took place at the DCNR Bloody Skillet ATV trails located in Curtin Twp. PaHART is a joint effort between PEMA, National Guard and the Pa. Fish and Boat commission conservation officers that specializes in hoisting patients through tree canopies or swift water rescue by utilizing Nat. Guard Black Hawk helicopters.

The photo to the right is a Hazmat clean up that occurred due to a tractor-trailer crash that occurred on SR 322 near the Philipsburg State Police station on 05/18/16 at 1 am in the morning. The scene took approx. 16 hrs. to clean up and clear wreckage. The acid in the tanker had to pumped into another tanker truck and both county Hazmat teams responded. The highway was shut down for an extended period and the driver of truck was regrettably deceased.

Since then PEMA has advised that we passed and they will meet with us with an improvement plan to become even more effective in the near future. The Centre Co. EMA office would like to thank and commend all of the county employees and volunteers who made this possible and will help in time of a real disaster. Job Well Done! On May 14th, the Centre Co.
