"Even the mighty oak was yesterday's acorn that stood it's ground"
Behind the Fences
Even though I try my very best to follow the rules, I fail.
My last case was graded as a
Major Case-- the worst! I asked my mom to send another inmate
(my play
daughter) a Bible for her birthday. As usual, I received the
harshest
punishment-- 45 days of cell restriction. I was only allowed
to leave
my cubicle to go to work, chow, passes, and one church service a
week.
To use the restroom, take a shower, or go to the trashcan, I had to
ask
the officer's permission. After 30 days of restriction, I was
allowed
to go to the commissary to purchase stamps and specific hygiene
items
and correspondence supplies.
Disciplinary Case
On
September 28th, TDCJ began charging $100.00 a year to every
offender as a health care
fee. They prefer to take it out of our Inmate Trust Fund
accounts all
at one time, but they will make multiple withdrawals if the inmate
does
not have the full amount in the TDCJ Trust Fund
Account.
