I am a former inmate and reading this article the inmate stated is not lies it is actual true story's I was in arthurkill in 2010 and while I was there I was assigned to control unit b janitorial duties around the facility the control officer J ragallis if I moved to another location you receive a ticket of out of place I asked the co for a pass to get a drink of water needless to say didn't end well the co got raged and told me to get on the wall in pat frisk position I complied heard the co tell the other 3 officers there were clear he proceeded to punch me in my mouth causing my mouth to bleed and loose a tooth I was placed in handcuffs as they continued to kick me and assault me while their Sgt stood by and watched they then escorted me to the shu where other cos joined in in the 2nd assault I wrote letters to family that they was throwing in the garbage and never made it home I had to figure out the cos that were not involved and finally 2 letters reached my family i went to my disiploneary hearing and the lieutenant was corrupt they proceeded to give me 90 days in the shu the co wrote up that he believed i was in possessition of contraband and that would have to be entered in evidence and was never produced at my hearing i wasnt in possession of any contra band the inmates get beat on and if your in the facility go ahead and say something your time and stay gets worse as the corrupt cos sgts and lieutenants areball in cohurts together the inmates need to speak up and express the truth expose those for the wrong they do you have good cos and they even will get ficked by the superiors yhe inmates yes you occasionally have a inmate who we consider a buggout mental health who will attack a co but it don't happen like they keep reporting the cos mess with the inmates talk trash to them and the inmate already has enough stress let along a co who comes along and fucks with them inmates
