 My name is Michael and I would like to tell you a little about myself and what I've recently been through regarding the WIDOC.But first I want to thank you for fighting the good fight and all that you do.

 I haven't closed the incident report I received on 6/17/25. I posted a sign in the library asking inmates to write Madison and complain about the conditions here at RCI. not getting our tablets. the lieutenant that locked me up was Furious. she acted like I did something personal to her. she waited for me to go to work( I'm a math tutor) and put me in handcuffs in front of my boss. I  the incident( conduct) report.  On 62425 I had a hearing. I was found not guilty of

 .303.24 but guilty of 303.03. The penalty  was 16 days from confinement. what you don't see is everything that I lost because of this.  I lost my job, my room, a lot of property. they punish us by taking property they deem excess .They took two pairs of shorts, my power strip, all open food and coffee, clothes, bedding, books. I am now in a restrictive housing unit. no phone, no rec, no job, no day.3

    I understand why most of the inmates here are scared to fight these people- what the” p i o cs” don't get is that if everyone fought them we would be unstoppable. and RCI They( capital T) used jobs to control the inmates. jobs are hard to get. they use them to oppress the rest of the PIOCs. many of the higher paying jobs are held by inmates serving years and they are rats, working for the administration.

    I  read in your newsletter that you help with purchasing things from Marcus. I really need a power strip. I understand that you do get a lot of requests. I also know that a lot of those requests are from p i o C's that have other outside support. I do not have outside support. I  am truly  in need.

 I will write soon and continue with my story and update you On the other  issues  that I am currently fighting in the DOC. keep up the great work  that you are doing

 sincerely Mike

 PS I'm in closing a copy of the sign I posted in the library
