As he explains in his post, he is mentally ill and is asking for help in getting “beyond the point where he feels he needs to fight the system”. He is in prison for a money crime ( related to gambling addiction). Many prisoners go through years of acting out at every humiliation and find themselves forever with conduct reports, in segregation etc. It is along learn , to learn that “you are captain of your own soul” . Please consider sending him a note of encouragement either by mail or through commenting on this blog. He will be updating his post regularly.

Jack Bailey 136683
JCI
PO Box 233
Black River Falls, WI 54615
Jack Bailey is one of the some 3-4 thousand inmates convicted before truth in sentencing , eligible for parole consideration after 12 years and still sitting in prison after 30 years. While FFUP works on crafting an elderly release bill that would give a real path for release for prisoners over 55, Jack is trying to open his criminal case, claiming that all evidence was circumstantial. Here is a copy of his Application to the UW Innocence Project and a letter from him. A note of encouragement would mean much. There are many people like Jack in prison senselessly. See our parole blog (underconstruction now) and ( also coming) Read here studies of the growing health care crisis in our prisons due the no parole policy .http://ffuppenpalclub.blogspot.com/2013/03/jack-bailey.html

Juan is acutely aware of the injustices in our “just- us” system . He has spent the last to decades trying to prove his innocence, He also helps other prisoners with their legal work and has written a book. It was a particularly struggle for him to endure the system , as it often is for those who see themselves as innocent, and the racism of the system has been hard for him to stomach. Also, Like many others, he has taken his difficult learning and passes it on to the younger inmates. See his blog with essays here:

DarRen Morris" goal Setting guide " :http://guidebydarrenmorris.blogspot.com
In Administrative confinement a person can be kept in solitary for unlimited time because they are deemed some kind of threat,. The requirements are vague and this kind of solitary , used around the country in different guises, keeps thousands of people entombed. Many are mentally ill in solitary because the society does not know what to do with them , many are what we call political prisoners- if out, they would be leaders taking the country in new direction.
