“The Wrath of Public Support and Scrutiny: From Physical to Psychological Warfare- A Failed Project”

Written by: Jason Renard Walker, Deputy Minister of Labor- NABPP- PC

The value of having support beyond these prison walls is invaluable.  The Prison Administration knows this as well, which is why they set rules and guidelines that can only be fought and petitioned outside of their procreated prisoner grievance and appeal procedures.

If they are individually challenged from within, staff of all ranks CAN and WILL use each other’s written in stone integrity to escape punishment.  One example of this is the grievance procedures.

During the Investigation of our Complaint: a Sgt., Lt., Cpt., or Grievance Member will collect evidence.  Since most Texas prisons are in redneck and desolate areas, a majority of the staff know and hang out with each other.

Simply speaking, a friend will approach another friend; collect their statement, which will normally be a denial of the allegations; then the investigation is closed, and our claim found unsubstantiated since “no evidence was found to support your claim.  Staff denied your allegation.”

This in itself frustrates and discourages many prisoners from filing complaints.  In many instances most of these prisoners don’t have someone on the outside willing to do more than send them the occasional birthday card and money.

This is one-way prisons have been able to effectively escape scrutiny and public-supported prison reform for years.  Things are doing undocumented.

There’s No Support Like Outside Support!!!

On January 23, 2018 all of my legal and personal property was confiscated under the guise that it was improperly stored in an excessive amount.  But this wasn’t true at all.  The reason for the confiscation was a retaliatory response to an article I wrote on Jan 18, 2018 about the staff’s role in a prisoner being killed the day before.

This particular article never reached its destination, so I wrote another that did and was circulated throughout the World.

I note that I never received a disciplinary case for unauthorized storage of property (35.0 level 3 offense) nor was it sent to or documented by the Property Officer.  Instead it remained in the Supervisor’s Office until the complaints poured in as I will explain.

On January 24, 2018 I contacted an outside source who acted then.  This call to the Warden prompted Officer Ayo and Sgt. Aleman to quickly fill out and sign a confiscation form that stated, “improperly stored” “excessive amount” and “books and magazines” as what was being taken.  No actual inventory was ever conducted.

I was given a copy of the confiscation on January 25, 2018.  My legal property was returned this same day.

On January 31, 2018 I was removed from school and sent to the Property Room, my items weren’t in the storage area but rather sitting along a wall and public place where everyone has access to roam.  Everything had obviously been gone through and a Bible I had important addresses in, gone.  (No big deal)

The Property Officer never inventoried or documented the confiscation.  Her focus was on having nothing to do with it as she stated to the degree.  “Look here’s everything, I ain’t signing nothing, keep me out of it” she nervously stated.

After putting everything up and, to their surprise, officials seeing it all fitted within the limitations of being in compliance, I was sent to see Joe M. Lopez.

He explained that a Chris Vance and Others were simultaneously filing complaints to Ombudsmen about my property.  I wrote a Statement saying the problem was resolved.  Lt. Lopez, or as his ranking counterparts call him “J. Lo” sent me back to school.

On February 1, 2018 during my morning class J. Lo pulled me out and into an empty room.  His tone was demanding, aggressive, and straight to the point.  “What the Hell is this shit, who the fuck is Brian Buck.” He yelled, inches away from my face.  And while showing me a stack of individual Ombudsman complaints.

He claimed that the Warden was getting on his ass because he couldn’t’ explain why my property was taken for being excessive and improperly stored and given back without me receiving a disciplinary case or any of it being properly documented.  “All of them are about the same shit, you better make them stop.”  He said while pointing a finger in my face then rudely dismissing me.

I assume that the Warden’s Investigation didn’t turn out as J. Lo had expected.  On February 2, 2018 I was approached by J. Lo and Sgt. Aleman while I was in my cell.  The purpose was to con me out of my copy of the confiscation form.  “Hey where is that pink copy I had you sign” Aleman said.

Knowing what they were up to I stated that I put it in the same bag that contained the original and file copy.  In fact, the former and latter was left in the property I got from the Property Officer.  Remember she didn’t want any involvement in my property actually being taken.  So, I put several books in this bag with the form and told J. Lo and told him to send it back to the property room.  As of 2-3-18 those particular items are still in the Supervisor’s office.  I still have my copy.  I believe that J. Lo and Aleman had plans on destroying the original confiscation form, then claim the event never happened, but couldn’t until they get my copy.

What drew me to this conclusion is the fact that as soon as they left, a prisoner told me that he heard J. Lo say “I’m fucked without that copy, my rank on the line.”  But the troubles that J. Lo and his Cronies face is a result of people’s power and your willingness to help me in a situation they usually are able to justify.

FROM HIV TO HEP C

If it isn’t one thing its another!  I have never had any phobias about taking STD tests and have regularly taken HIV and Hep C tests for years- each time they are negative, including the most recent.

On January 30, 2018 I was removed from class and rushed to the infirmary.  The fake news, the nurse said, was that I had tested positive for HIV.  By coincidence I had my last HIV results handy which she viewed and then looked on the computer.  After arguing to debunk this myth, she claimed that I had Hep C and had tested positive for it on July 25, 2016.

Knowing that my last Hep C test was negative, I asked her to show me the blood test results and lab reports that say I’m positive.  She assured me that she looked at and verified them before sending for me “So no need to beat a dead horse” she said.

In contradiction “to cause paranoia” she showed me a digital copy of a Hep C notification form that had my signature forged on it “7-25-16”.  But wouldn’t show me the lab reports (which are negative).

She loudly gave me a staged pep talk about being “positive for Hep C” which she repeated over and over again until gossiping guards and prisoners were heard discussing it by another nurse who closed the door to the room I was in.

This was obviously done to spark rumors about my health condition, while causing prisoners to avoid socializing with me.  Im currently undergoing the Hep C treatment process.  But one of the smarter nurses told me during a Feb 2 visit that “I don’t know whats going on but you’re lab report shows Hep C negative”.

I recently filled out a protected health info form (PHI) and listed Professor Wallace and Dr. John Dolley as having authorized to collect medical records for the 2014-2018 year.  I recommend that my HIV and Hep C, lab reports, and relevant records be collected to expose this attempt to cause emotional and psychological distress.

The Book Stealing Peeping Tom

Somce I arrived to this Unit on Nov 1, 2017 I’ve had problems with the Mail Room handling my mail correctly and stealing my books.  In fact I immediately sent the Mail Room Supervisor, Dinah Hoffman, a request asking them to make sure all of my legal/media mail was handled correctly.  I received a reply back that stated mailroom policies are followed.

In the month of December I was expecting a total of 4 books.  One was W.E.B. Du Bois Black Reconstruction in America, which I received on December 28; the second was Mao Tse Tung’s: Selected Works Vol III, which I received on December 7; the third was Charles E Jones: The Black Panther Party {Reconsidered} Order #111-7725366-2998647, which I never received; the fourth was Assata Shakur: Assata An Autobiography Order #111-1341081-9582636, which I also did not receive.

After contacting the Book Buyers I learned that the Panther Book was expected to reach me Dec 6 and Assata’s book was sent Dec 12.  Hoffman sent me a reply to this complaint which stated “our records showed you receiving: 1 book on 12/7/17 (not Amazon) & -1 book on 12/28/17 (Amazon), if you haven’t rec’d you’ll need to contact the sender to track it for you”.

I had the senders do just that which reveal that the books never made it out of the Mail Room, despite it reaching its destination.

I also have a copy of an order # to Amazon’s book mailing log for these particular books.

As per media mail!  Following my most recent prisoner death expose being posted and opportunistically used in part by mainstream media journalist Keri Blackinger and her counterparts, media mail from the managing editor of socialism and democracy was supposedly opened in error, but not before the contents were read and an enclosed letter denied.

Following this, on January 31, 2018 a letter from the Editor of Socialist Viewpoint was opened, read, and sent to me as general mail.  They claimed that the address wasn’t listed in the Gale Directory, so I recommend that the Editors check to make sure this is true.  They were listed in the Gale Directory when I receibed mail a month or so before.

But in any event the recent exposure of the prisoner’s death is a big reason why my outgoing mail gets intercepted and incoming mail highly scrutinized- even if it requires the mailroom to break their own rules.
