Her Letter Reads>
"The staff here seems to warrant violence~There were a few girls fighting , it was   really bad they even cut one inmate. Instead of moving one or more of them. They are keeping them in the same unit.
The one that cut the other did not even go to Ad-Seg. Some of them have black eyes from being beat up all the time. Yet the staff is not moving them to safety, nor taking the abusers out.
It is very violent here at night, you can hear the fighting, screaming & later crying & staff does not
stop it, they do not intervene at all.  Staff hangs out right out side our windows & never come to see if anyone is hurt. There are 7 women with their faces all beat. Cuts & bruses, black eyes.One was beat so severly eyeis swollen shut.
My mind is on the brink of a break down.  I can not take this for much longer.
Please call up here or ask someone to please come help us.
 I was returning to my cell  when a staff member appeared out of no where, she grabbed my wrist and started dragging me behind her down the hall , she was yelling "you do not belong out here".
"It was not necessary to use force on me I would of went to her or stopped walking had she asked me to.
I have put in a complaint but I fear now they will start messing with me or allow another inmate to beat me.
This is a small setting & all the shady, violent stuff should not be going on like this.
Girls are written up all the time no matter how hard to keep good time.
Right after going to the bathroom they came in & demanded a urine sample,
the woman said she couldn't pee but would try. The sample was to small~she was written up.
Everyone is locked down every day for 22 hours a day. We have no visitation or  time  out side, just another way to  of us in lock down 23 hours a day,. I am becoming so depressed, I just don't know how much more I can stand.
We have No Voice, There Is No One To Help Us. PLEASE HELP!
 M. From C.I.W.
