Allred Unit guard gasses hung prisoner, ranking unit guard orders to leave him hanging

By Jason Renard Walker Despite the seasonal deaths and murders at Allred Unit’s maximum security prison, just outside Wichita Falls, Texas; prison guards are still responding to these incidents as if no remedial training or reprimands were ever dished out to curtail wrongful deaths. Though, chances are, none were. After I arrived back to this unit following an 18-month hiatus and brief stays at four different units; in less than two weeks, two Hispanic prisoners in 4 Building’s F-Pod hung…

ABUSIVE OVERSIGHT: SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS SHOW GUARDS’ ATTEMPT TO KILL BLACK AND BROWN PRISONER AT THE DISCRETION OF WHITE RANKING STAFF

By Jason Renard Walker, NABPP Minister of Labor Many citizens in society know little if anything about what actually goes on in an American prison. The little some do know usually portrays prisoners in a negative light. We can thank the mainstream media for falsely viewing prisons as places where violent predators spend their days: preying on the weak; lifting weights; watching movies and stabbing each other for no reason at all. Kinda like-how HBO laid out the prison environment…

Back to Clements Unit: The Original Scene of Crime and Punishment

By Jason Renard Walker, NABPP Minister of Labor After a brief 3 year hiatus from the Clements unit in Amarillo, Texas. I find myself returning to the original scene of crime and punishment, lawless order, sadism, racism and what have you.

Grey Suit Protection: Ellis Unit guards Admit Assaulting Prisoners, But Aren’t Held Accountable

On 1-6-19 at 12:27 AM officer Barnett (white female) and another Latina female and white officer sprayed a heavy dose of chemical gas in the vents and on the cell block to choke us out. They turned the industrial fan on, kept all the windows closed and laughed as it circulated, choking everyone. They all wore gas masks then closed my solid security door connected to my cell door so that I was trapped in the gas and as it…

Racist guard files trumped-up felony assault charge, then bribes coworker to bear false witness

Racist guard files trumped-up felony assault charge, then bribes coworker to bear false witness

Within the past year, prison guards are turning up the way they retaliate for my published exposés and activism. From false charges to legal property theft and now physically unprovoked beatings. Most recently, on Nov. 23, 2018, around 3:10 a.m., I was snatched out of the chow hall by known racist officer Brandon K. Pollock, who attempted to wrestle me to the ground so he and officer Zachary H. Williford, another known racist, could beat me to a bloody pulp….

It is actually part of a poorly-designed program designed…

Rashid Attacked – Again: Texas Prison Officials Will Not Stop Us From Exposing Them To The Media

As dirty as they are, officials here at the Clements Unit maximum security prison (mainly high ranking staff) have gone to the extreme to, what seems to be, retaliate against Kevin “Rashid” Johnson and those who are helping him organize and report staff abuse. Most notably on March 7, 2017, I was moved from the Ad-Seg restriction pod and placed on the same pod as Rashid (5 cells down). This move stemmed from a false major disciplinary case (which was…
