This is a story of a man named Jesus Diaz Jr. who was a former United States Border Patrol Agent and now in solitary confinement in Del Rio Texas. Imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit, he is fighting the government in his appeal to be heard by a neutral party and to expose the criminality in how his trial was conducted and swayed by a criminal justice system that was filled with subjective officials who had a political motive to incarcerate this man for the pleasure of our neighbor down south, the Mexican government. This Border agent was imprisoned for pulling on a set of handcuffs on an illegal drug smuggler in the middle of the night back in October, 2008. He was investigated after a complaints was filed by the Mexican Consulate in Eagle Pass and although he passed the internal affairs review, the government would not settle for anything less than a conviction of a “color of law” violation that alleged human rights were violated that night when he use a sanctioned, academy procedure to use the restraints as a compliance tool and abandoned by his own government to please a foreign power.
The relationship between a man and his government is one of trust and simple loyalties that are shared between two entities whenever they engage in the business of citizenship and their respective human rights. To further embrace this relationship for so many years, you have thoughts remembering how you have given your oath to be faithful to this country and the Constitution, worn a badge to enforce this country’s laws and changed your priorities in your own personal life to fulfill this most important journey you shared with the government of the United States of America and the Border Patrol. Thinking back about some of those amazing moments in your career fills your experiences with some amazing personal moments of success and dedication towards law enforcement and what it stands for. Again, you can feel the connection and you feel satisfied of its existence. Realizing that this treasured relationship is not perfect you accept it for what it is and has been for seven years or so and then one day you have a moment where the government breaks the relationship between you two and created a wall of distrust that brings tears to your eyes and a dark feeling of betrayal as they [government] tear away at your heart a little more each day to penetrate your soul and break you down and cry.
You realize that this treatment of indifference is targeted on you and your questions remain left unanswered as you wish they would tell you why they are doing this to you and what prompted such a vicious cycle of mistreatment and persecution towards you and your existence. Answering no questions asked, they remain closed mouth as to their motive and their purpose for hammering your credentials, your ethics and your dedication to your country. Day after day, the friction multiplies between you two and the law of survival causes you to not hold back and fight back as hard as you can to break down these walls of prosecution and demeaning assaults on your dignity and emotional capacity. Your rights have been infringed as you become a target for criminality actions and while challenging this assault upon your person and soul, you realize that these forces are immense and overwhelming in efforts to capture your mind and body and make it submit to surrender any fight you have to give them victory.
To further inflict extreme punitive pain and mental anguish they put you in a solitaire confinement status that separates you from physical contact from everyone in your world. Most men become very vulnerable to a breakdown of his own emotional walls as they use the excuse to put you there for your “own safety” but hiding the true reasons for this deprivation and isolation which is to make it safe for them to control your mind and body at whim and pleasure as they [government] torture you until no end to control your mind and surrender. There are no defenses for solitary confinement and there are no barriers that can keep you sane from the insanity that surrounds you. Cruel barriers imposed to control your mind, your body; your movement and your thinking are taking effect as time goes by. They want you to surrender and show them you can indeed be trusted to understand why they are doing this to you and making an example out of someone who breached the trust between man and his government.
The only major problem is that you did nothing to breach this trust to your country. You did everything they taught you and used their training tools to the best of your ability to do your job effectively. Unfortunately, the government is motivated by political influences that are more important than your own interests, dignity and human rights. Thus as a last resort, you throw up your own defenses and fight back to this injustice of your life and your family. The relationship, abused and mistrusted, has challenged you to a new level to successfully combat the enemy [your government] with every ounce of strength you have left and hope and pray others will join you in this fight to make it right again.
The more you fight, the harder the government comes chasing you. Opening up with more resources that one man can barely fight off with limited resources and human spirit. As a result of this fight, you challenged the truth and create your own barriers to avoid being swallowed up by this enemy as they try to coax you out of your human shell by isolating you inside a concrete box left alone and nobody to talk to or occupy your mind with thoughts. A most common psychological tool used in the prison of Abu Ghraib and condemned by many but obviously condoned by the current administration.
I received a letter today from former agent Jesus Diaz written in pencil from his prison cell in Del Rio Texas. The prison, an agent for the government has kept him “safe” thus far and is challenged to keep his safe until his appeal will reveal the corrupt practices engaged during his pretrial and second trial will reveal. Americans everywhere need to take the time out of their busy daily schedule and write this man a post card, a letter or something to support him and let him know he is not alone and that the government can’t break him down as he has the help and the trust of many who also embraced a relationship with this government and have been let down by its treacherous and selfish political ways to please others even if it means the violation of Americans to please foreign powers and influence.

SOLITARY CONFINEMENT -SHORT STORIES - NEWS AND OPINIONS - JUST PLAIN OLD STRAIGHT TALK ~~
Wasted Honor -
Carl R. ToersBijns is the author of the Wasted Honor Trilogy [Wasted Honor I,II and Gorilla Justice] and his newest book From the Womb to the Tomb, the Tony Lester Story, which is a reflection of his life and his experiences as a correctional officer and a correctional administrator retiring with the rank of deputy warden in the New Mexico and Arizona correctional systems.
Carl also wrote a book on his combat experience in the Kindle book titled - Combat Medic - Men with destiny - A red cross of Valor -
Carl is considered by many a rogue expert in the field of prison security systems since leaving the profession. Carl has been involved in the design of many pilot programs related to mental health treatment, security threat groups, suicide prevention, and maximum custody operational plans including double bunking max inmates and enhancing security for staff. He invites you to read his books so you can understand and grasp the cultural and political implications and influences of these prisons. He deals with the emotions, the stress and anxiety as well as the realities faced working inside a prison. He deals with the occupational risks while elaborating on the psychological impact of both prison worker and prisoner.
His most recent book, Gorilla Justice, is an un-edited raw fictional version of realistic prison experiences and events through the eyes of an anecdotal translation of the inmate’s plight and suffering while enduring the harsh and toxic prison environment including solitary confinement.
Carl has been interviewed by numerous news stations and newspapers in Phoenix regarding the escape from the Kingman prison and other high profile media cases related to wrongful deaths and suicides inside prisons. His insights have been solicited by the ACLU, Amnesty International, and various other legal firms representing solitary confinement cases in California and Arizona. He is currently working on the STG Step Down program at Pelican Bay and has offered his own experience insights with the Center of Constitutional Rights lawyers and interns to establish a core program at the SHU units. He has personally corresponded and written with SHU prisoners to assess the living conditions and how it impacts their long term placement inside these type of units that are similar to those in Arizona Florence Eyman special management unit where Carl was a unit deputy warden for almost two years before his promotion to Deputy Warden of Operations in Safford and Eyman.
He is a strong advocate for the mentally ill and is a board member of David's Hope Inc. a non-profit advocacy group in Phoenix and also serves as a senior advisor for Law Enforcement Officers Advocates Council in Chino, California As a subject matter expert and corrections consultant, Carl has provided interviews and spoken on national and international radio talk shows e.g. BBC CBC Lou Show & TV shows as well as the Associated Press.
