Prison aint for sensitive boys I still think about every fight every scraping – making of knives wondering what happened to those lives they were sharpened for? I still feel every spray every breath it stole away wondering what violence will come today W/the squad at your door I still hear every screaming voice every life isolation destroyed prison ain’t the place for a sensitive boy I don’t want this no more

Ways ADX is different from SHU: 1. 2 doors 2. No cell-to-cell contact 3. TV 4. Books 5. You ‘program’ in your cell 6. Rec is totally by yourself—indoor and outdoor 7. Bunk is made of concrete 8. Desk is made of concrete 9. Every door is 100% electronic 10. Every man is 2-man hold 11. Guards have batons in hand 12. No screaming or rapping-thank god 13.

Recently, at the end of Eric’s time at USP Lee, he experienced brutal deprivation, threats and retaliation. So much that while he was there, he didn’t speak on it for safety concerns. Right before he left, the Bureau of Prison’s Southeast Regional office outside of USP Lee jurisdiction held his disciplinary hearing, allegedly to be “impartial”. The lieutenants let him know that Regional instructed them to find Eric guilty in case his ADX transfer didn’t go through so they could try forcing the ADX transfer again later on if needed. The BOP found him guilty of “rioting” because of a global noise demo that happened outside prisons on New Year’s…
