Topic: Letter of The Law / Lethal injection… cruel and unusual?

The death penalty is given only to the criminals who killed their victims in a most violent,heinous manner.The innocent victims suffered a lot of pain before dying.I believe that lethal injection is too mellow.The criminal should die in a very slow and torturous death.

Topic: The Club House / story of a stupid inmate

I have an inmate in my unit who has been disciplined several times for directing profanity toward staff.I opened the cell door so that he could go into his cell to get some coffee.While he was in there, I told him to close the cell door and to press the intercom beeper when he was ready to come back out into the dayroom.He went in and left the door open,so I called him on the intercom and asked him why he left the door open.He responded with “I’m getting some G@##^%&&&((& coffee.I then ordered again to close his cell door.I left the intercom turned on and listened to and recorded every word that he was saying.He called me a racial slur several times and said to his cellmate that "I don't care what that no good BLACK M&&%^ F###$ thinks."He's nothing but a "no good BLACK M$$#^& F&&%4” On the discipline report I wrote it exactly as he said it word for word.When I presented him the discipline report,he responded with “Boss,I admit that I called out of your name,but I DIDN’T say that ,please don’t write me up again.I have to live with these people everyday,you don’t.” A few minutes later the sergeant called him to come to his office,and when returns my unit he says to everyone in the unit that I am racist and that G%% D*& officer is liar.He then shows his copy of the discipline report to a black inmate and calls me a racist again.The black inmate wanted to pound him into the ground immediately.Two days later,he was “pounded into the ground” by three black inmates.My sergeant told him that he was going to go to the Disciplinary Detention Unit for five days,but because he initiated the fight he was sentenced to serve fifteen days in Disciplinary Detention after he returns from the hospital.
