CW: Occasional Foul Language. Always Political.

Martin Soto (Delaney hunger strike leader) is in an emotional crisis. His wife is asking for people to write letters. Sending even a short note would make a huge difference. He’s been in solitary for 4 months, where he found out his wife miscarried. Spanish is best, English is fine.

‘Losing my mind’: Inmates sue to stop use of #SolitaryConfinement in #Oregon prisons

https://www.koin.com/news/oregon/losing-my-mind-inmates-sue-to-stop-use-of-solitary-confinement-in-oregon-prisons/

Anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-harm, night terrors, panic attacks, and hallucinations are some of the symptoms inmates say they experience after being locked in solitary confinement.
Solitary confinement in Oregon prisons consists of 23 to 24 hours a day in a windowless cell smaller than a parking space. Inmates in solitary confinement are often forbidden from spending any time outside and are cut off from contact with other inmates and their loved ones outside of prison, according to the lawsuit. Some are kept in solitary for weeks or months at a time, and others are held there for years.

Almost Hell: The Slow Cruelty of Remaining

towards the US regime:

"growing body of evidence shows that solitary confinement causes extreme suffering and mental and physical breakdowns even in individuals with no history of psychiatric disabilities,with symptoms that include anxiety,depression,psychosis,self-harm,and suicide. For people with underlying mental illness,who are more likely than others to land in solitary,the effects are even more dire and deadly."—"prison guards were withholding basic necessities,like toilet paper,from them"

"Many of these people really need mental health assistance.But instead of getting proper help, they’re being held in cages and treated like they’re not people"—"lights are bright and never turn off,which can make it difficult for prisoners to sleep at night"—"piles of moldy food,swarms of bugs,and layers of dust on the floors,beds,and toilets"—"fluids“seep into the foam where it can’t be decontaminated"—"would only dispose of a mattress when it was torn, not because it posed a health hazard"

"sleeping on a contaminated mattress creates serious health risks.The mattress begins to mold,creating ammonia and causing long-term respiratory complications,and even death when inhaled for long periods of time"—"blood all over the bed,floor,and hallway"—"would defecate in his hand,rub it all over the wall,smear it under the bed,and in between the doorjambs.Occasionally,he would urinate on the floor"—"loud and would jar other prisoners from their sleep in the middle of the night"—"forced him to work on his day off"—"more than 122,000 people were in solitary confinement"—"should have more time out of their cells,regular showers"—"Prisoners with mental health issues should be getting treatment instead of being placed in solitary for months on end"

That's because the conditions at ADX are some of the most restrictive in the federal system. Unlike in other prisons, where #SolitaryConfinement is often reserved as a punishment for bad behavior & there are opportunities for prisoners to spend time in groups, in ADX, the prisoners are always confined alone & are required to stay inside cells no larger than a parking spot 22 to 24 hours a day.

10 of the prisoners were transferred to one of the most restrictive maximum-security prisons in the US, an infamous facility in Colorado nicknamed "the Alcatraz of the Rockies" where every prisoner is kept in #SolitaryConfinement. 2 were taken to states where prosecutors have pledged to seek the #DeathPenalty against them again, in state court.

"The justice system is a "stain on Australia's reputation"."

"A delegation of United Nations inspectors have raised the alarm about Australia's treatment of children, First Nations people, people with disability and migrants in detention."

"The UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention visited detention facilities in New South Wales, Western Australia and the ACT, but was denied access to all Northern Territory institutions in an international first... The Northern Territory barred all access to inspectors in a worldwide first."

ACLU Suit Targets “Dire” Conditions at CoreCivic-Run ICE Jail in California

People held at the Core Civic-run Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) jail in Kern County, California are denied medical care, access to their attorneys, and, for disabled detainees, the most basic accommodations, according to a class-action lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and others this week in the the U.S. District Court for Northern California.
