Thank you for your publication. I share it with others inside to report
the horrific abuse I have suffered recently as retaliation for my
federal complaint filed in the local court 4/3/18. On 4/10/18 the
harassment started. I was denied my dinner tray and put on camera to be
threatened with chemical agents by several staff, none of whom managed
to feed me the food brought and prepared for me to consume. Then on
April 14th I received 3 false disciplinary reports from different
security staff, after none all year. This weekend I was not given the
library books sent from the general library. The same officer, Ms Baez
was eager to break the law to falsify state documents as leverage
ordered by the mobsters in the management but could not feed me or hand
me a library book while I am locked in a room. This same officer
arranged for more than one inmate to get attacked with pepper spray
while doing nothing wrong. The sadistic and malicious use of pepper
spray has been reported at FDOC since at least 2007. This is all done on
camera with audio evidence with none of the personnel worried that there
will be any consequences for their criminal acts.
On April 19, while in the shower, the sergeant Ms Taylor went into my
cell and threw out my hygiene supplies just given to me days prior,
donated by the community. When I told her I was allowed to have those
items and needed a property receipt, she ignored me and went to get the
captain Harvey. While I was bathing and unclothed he came into the
shower area and began to argue with me. This had all been done to
provoke me just as the denial of my food had been done to provoke me.
After I was placed in my cell, I was put on camera again to be
threatened with chemical weapons warfare by Lt. Desmond, who had never
come to my door before. After 10 pm I was taken from my cell again and
strip searched in the shower, my room was ransacked and more of my
property stolen including my new clothes given to me the day before by
laundry. When I asked for my property receipt the officer Ms. Jorgensen
rallied to report I was “on the door”. Then a crew of several state
workers paid to take care of me tortured me with chemical weapons
warfare while I was in my cell not making a sound. My property was all
taken away and most of it stolen or confiscated.
To deprive me of basic necessities, shampoo, dental floss, q-tips,
vitamins and my legal notebook were taken. I was put in a cell with no
bed roll, any of my hygiene or even extra clothes. I would not even
brush my hair for days. My legal papers had all been handed off on March
22, 2018 to sabotage my post-conviction relief, crippling me of my
ability to handle my legal work. The management had stolen my legal
papers sent in to the law library to be copied and typed, then denied me
law library access for months which was the subject of the complaint
filed in April on Lowell Correctional Institute, the world’s second
largest prison for women.
On April 24th the same officer who refused to feed me earlier that
month, Ms Baez, threw my tray on the floor, glared at me and headed off
to report that I had thrown the tray at her. She had me served with a
fake DR for battery. Again I was not fed. Between 4/14-4/28 I was served
12 disciplinary reports falsified by the state workers paid to take care
of me and given months of “discipline” so I cannot use the phone, have a
razor to shave, earn gain time, go to the dog room, have a visit or
check out a book from the general library. My mother, 74 years old, was
planning to drive 4 hours to visit me for 2 hours on 4/29 but could not
because of the false reports issued by the sadistic sociopaths that
gravitate to those jobs because they enjoy hurting people.
I received 2 more DRs in May while locked in a room from the state
carrying out reprisal and pretending it is discipline. My grievances are
mostly denied and when approved nothing really changes. The officer who
threw my food on the floor was promoted to sergeant, her reward for
following the orders to persecute me as punishment for exercising my
right to access the courts to document the corruption at LCI.
Last year I was assigned several violent roommates at FWRC in Ocala to
batter me for my grievances reporting the misconduct of officers at the
WFRC. I was given 30 DRs December 2010 to November 2017, and all but 15
were overturned or dismissed through the government probes. The last
roommate put me in the ER. She was sent to general population after
putting more than one inmate at FWRC in the hospital and I was sent to
closed management for more behavior “mediation” (for the 3rd time in
2012) on the pretense I am endangering the inmate population. This is
just long-term solitary confinement torture that is expensive, does not
improve anyone’s behavior and causes irreparable psychological damage.
I am 41 years old and have hurt no one in or out of prison and did not
all of the sudden become violent. I will have permanent scars on my face
from the attack on me, all orchestrated by the management at FWRC intent
on stifling my efforts to use the grievance process to report the
rampant human rights violations in this penal system. The employees
receive no discipline and have free reign to break the law to carry out
reprisals at the taxpayer’s expense. Many of my grievances are not
responded to and what answers I get are full of lies to cover up the
criminal acts of the personnel. I have a $65.00 lean on my account for
postage, copies and typing fees as a result of seeking relief in the
courts, with several courts sanctioning me to prevent me from exposing
the corruption in the criminal justice system. No court has intervened
as of yet with record numbers of inmate deaths since 2012 even with
populations declining along with natural deaths plummeting.
Since 2010 I have received 109 disciplinary reports, hauled off to
confinement 22 times, lost years of gain time and been kept locked in a
room (at 2-3 times the cost to keep me in GP) about half this period.
Blatant retaliation the FDOC pretending it is discipline to justify
their wrongdoing. My correspondence to the FPLE, FBI, Florida State
Police, Department of Justice, POTUS (2), U.S. Congress, Attorney
Generals, U.S. commission on civil rights, Criminal Justice committees,
governor, Chief In over Florida, Statewide prosecutor, Florida
legislature, local police, local state attorney, etc. is largely
ignored. I have spent nearly 13 years in Florida jails/prisons,
wrongfully convicted, no attorney I have contacted has ever conducted
any real investigation or intervened on my behalf. Each time I am taken
to confinement or my property is stolen, gain time revoked, privileges
denied and I am kept locked in a room for extended periods of time –
days, weeks, months, and even years at a time. The commission on ethics
refuse to send me completed forms and the FDOC refuses to notarize them
to prevent me from filing complaints on the corrupt officials.
