I was in the shower the other night & I heard some commotion on the walk. I looked out & watched this older guard (CO 1 ******) grab a black inmate (in cuffs) by his throat & slam his head against the wall while another guard (CO 1 ******) was agreeing with the inmate, that he did nothing wrong. She then threw her hands up as though to say, “What is this officer doing?” The male guard then slammed the inmate to the ground & when their superior officers came in, the female maintained that the inmate never did anything to deserve to be slammed against the wall or onto the floor. The male guard was then removed from the housing unit. It was later that we found out that the guard that did this was going through a nasty divorce. See if you can relay that story to the MO Prison Reform lady. It happened the night of the 27thinto the 28thduring showers.”

    My son went through something similar at Pacific and now they are trying to charge him. He has been in solitary confinement for 2 years and they keep denying his release date. He is getting harassed at Potosi by guards, they done stripped him naked in front of everyone, slammed his hand in the door. It is ridiculous.
