I have a friend I met when I lived in the honor dorm in prison. She’s a “model inmate”, no write ups, captain’s clerk kind of gal, a lifer. She was found suitable for parole recently. She also voiced concerns about the implementation of the gender self ID 1/7
policy in a 602-the inmate appeals process that allows inmates to question policy when it adversely affects their welfare:A transfer under SB132 walked in on her in the restroom a few times-it bothered her. Her 602 stated that and was met with removal from the honor dorm 2/7
after at least 2 decades of living there write up free, to administrative segregation-the hole. She was released to another yard-with 2 write ups: harassment and falsifying a report. One was dropped. One stuck. There are 4 days left for her 3/7
write up to be reheard or to be dropped. 4 days for her parole suitability to be saved. 4 days of living in the lowest level of purgatory knowing she cannot even use the proper avenues to voice a concern about her own physical safety and mental health. 4/7
This was the ultimate silencing tool. This was the death blow to what little hope these women were holding onto. No one will speak up now. I physically felt a huge hand over my mouth and another around my throat when I heard this happened. I have 5/7
no ideas left and no more connections or favors to call in so I’m here on my knees begging anyone with a connection to the governor’s office to please message me. All it takes is a phone call to that office and for them to know someone cares about this woman. 6/7
Please do not let them erase these women. If you can’t relate let me tell you something-she is you. You are her. You have no idea what tomorrow holds or if you’ll end up there one day and to allow this to happen is contributing to your own erasure. Please help me. 7/7
I have a message from my friend. She’s ready to make some noise. She’s given the go ahead for us to rise up on her behalf. I’ll share the numbers to call and what to say shortly. Tomorrow we’ll be saying her name and making some LONG OVER DUE NOISE!!!
@_BarringtonII would you please tap in and share your thoughts on this situation?

🧵 Let me explain how messed up women’s prison is. Today at the California Institution for Women, they had an event to celebrate Captain Spinney, who passed a few months ago. A handful of inmates organized this. They were SELLING state issued hamburgers, and snow cones. 1/4
They were accepting trust withdraws from inmates to make donations to the American Heart Association in honor of Spinney. Under normal circumstances I wouldn’t have anything to say but there is nothing normal about the Ca Dept. of Corrections esp at CIW. 2/4
Im sharing an article about Captain Spinney and the “sting operation” at CIW that was for the purpose of catching an officer sexually assaulting 2 female inmates. Spinney didn’t send help when the 2 women repeatedly said the #codeword he waited until they were both penetrated 3/4

🪡 I’m on the phone with a young woman in prison who’s being stalked and harassed by the most manipulative psychopath I’ve ever encountered. She put in a request for mental health services. She told the psych she felt helpless because a rapist’s whims are being prioritized 1/4
over her safety. The psych got upset and asked this young woman, “WHY ARE YOU JUDGING HER!? BECAUSE SHE RAPED 1 PERSON?!” I would like to get in touch with this psych and let her know it wasn’t 1 person. HE has raped a lot of MEN. She went on to tell me his girlfriend 2/4
has moved into her cell and has started to harass her and try to get her in trouble. She said the staff allow him down their hallway to talk to the girlfriend. She said they have sex in there-loud. Staff told her they’re aware of the situation and they’re looking into it. 3/4
