I have wanted to have my story known by the public since I had escaped the events that had transpired. Unfortunately, due to legal reasons and fear for my life, I didn’t publish it until recently. My nightmare was not mine alone, it was and still is a dark, mostly unknown, fabric of our society. Few people are aware of what, exactly, is going on in many of our penal institutions. My goal is to not only expose the corruption, but just as importantly, the deviant behavior, outright racism and mindless torture bestowed upon individuals, many not convicted, (or in the least, wrongly convicted), in order to fill beds for profit. My story is a precursor to our modern day privatized correctional facilities. Presently, they may be more sophisticated, but make no mistake, can be just as brutal and profitable. To clarify, individuals profited by this unpaid labor, by billing Individuals, Local, State and Federal governments, as well as many large corporations. For instance, if we built a road, they got paid by the Local or State governments, dependent upon the particular contract. They then never paid for labor, creating huge profits. In my instance we cleared and paved roads, built out-houses and swimming pools, as well as other sundry jobs. We were forced to do this up to 12 hours a day, in the harsh, hot humid weather. Sometimes in the rain. The food was comparable to dog food. That is if we were “good” and behaved. We were at the mercy of the deranged, masochistic guards and those higher up. One lived in a constant state of fear. Fear of death, torture, meaningless jobs, ridicule and humiliation. A few went insane. They couldn’t believe their reality and never were able to cope with their unreality. Additionally, others were outright murdered. That’s where the fear came from. When the labor camp was finally discovered, why were the investigations and indictments suddenly squashed? It’s not hard to understand. Many of our “duly elected” officials were, to various degrees, involved and enabled the camp to exist. Racism was rampant in the camp. The guards, Warden, and involved police promoted it. “If you like N, then you can’t work here” was one of the guard’s favorite expressions. The reasons listed above are why I want the American public’s eyes to be opened, for them to be aware that, yes this is a reality. When I do interviews, the question I am asked the most is, “Does this REALLY exist in America?” Sadly, the answer is yes.
