That sick thread about that piece of shite that threw the kid off the 3rd floor at he MOA has me thinking.

Say he gets sentenced to prison X. If I look up prison X and find 10-15 guys that we’re sentenced in that prison and mail them a printed off article with he story and pics of that little boy and the sicko in it.

After that he’ll be brutally murdered. Could you get in any legal trouble for doing that?

It's hard to tell who would send a printed article from random post boxes


IOW, the burden of proof is on the State.

They don’t need you to send them info....they will already know his schedule and arrival time and at what prison before he does

The prison staff will take care of inmate notification within a day or two of his arrival. They have a person in charge of that. You would be interfering in prison protocol.


I would recommend allowing them to maintain the social control programs they already have in place.

It is likely to be caught in the letter screening and tossed.

BTW it is still showing in CNNs top stories and is also trending on CNN so it has "above the fold" coverage there. It is also near the bottom of the Fox front page in their crime section. These are not from their mobile sites, which obviously highlight fewer articles.

Retribution for street crimes in prison due to their nature is largely a TV myth. The notion that these people have some moral code or "line" just isn't true, and crimes in jail are driven by a personal link. When you see child molesters murdered in jail, you typically (not always) find out that he was propositioning people for sex in the prison.

Not unless you request an action.

You are free to take out front page ads if you so wish.

Idk if you'd get in trouble for doing it, but starting this thread wasn't very smart IMO if you had real plans

No there’s no law stopping you from writing letters to inmates. If that’s how you want to spend your time.

Thats just not true

I graduated high school with a guy who is a guard at Angola. I promise you they target child abusers. Molesters always lie about their crimes. I promise you whatever prison this guy goes to is going to have someone in it that will kill that guy, no doubt in my mind.

A vast majority of prison inmates are Christians. Many of them are guys in that believe that their moral code supersedes the law.

Watch any prison documentary on Netflix by the way.

I had a boss who’s brother was busted with child porn on his computer. It never made the news. He was convicted and sentenced to a prison 5 hours away. His second day in prison 2 other inmates beat the crap out of him and put him in intensive care for over a week. It’s not a myth.

Criminals who prey on children and women are picked on by other inmates because they're perceived as weak, not because of some sense of moral goodness by the other more violent criminals. Violence and the willingness to engage in violence assigns the pecking order more than anything else.

My great aunt (on my mom's side) was a nurse in San Quentin for many years. She ended up marrying one of the inmates who became my great uncle David. We met him finally in 2008, probably 6 years after his release, at a family reunion in Lake Tahoe. He was in for bank robbery, was a former Marine and had 2 grown children when he was jailed. His son also became a Marine and he was a really genuine guy that I enjoyed meeting and he was very open about his past experiences in jail, his personal struggles with drugs that led to the multiple bank robberies and ultimate personal rehabilitation.

(My dad's brother and my godfather is also named David, which is somewhat amusing, because we're all white and my great Uncle David is black, so I have to make a distinction between which uncle David we're talking about in conversations now.)

They'll know more about him than you will. It's not worth your time.

You can but the prison can also stop the inmate it was sent to from receiving it.
