Wasted Honor -- - Say What you Need To Say......: 10/23/11

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.

Fox News and Arizona Loves Paul Babeu

The Sheriff of the Year 2011 has announced his desire to run for Congress. He has an aggressive record in the state of Arizona that supports his stand on Illegal immigration but he never said he wasn't for legal immigration. In fact his words regarding this matter were on the record as reflecting "I support legal immigration. But I oppose illegal immigration, because I've taken an oath to uphold and defend our laws and our Constitution. I know it's a novel concept for the left, but I'm in law enforcement--that means all of the laws, not just the ones Obama and his cronies decide to enforce on any given day. " I can't flaw the man for wanting to follow the laws of the land. It's his job to do so and out of respect for this, I support his efforts to become a United States congressman from Arizona. It is likely he will be attacked from the left, the center and the far right because he is a reasonable man. A man with ethics and an American patriotic spirit that is refreshing in these times of turmoil and uncontrolled political corruption. When he said these words "When 400,000 people unlawfully enter Arizona every single year" referring to the illegal immigration problem in this state it was clear he had a pulse on the problem.

In his email asking for support he wrote how he felt about this problem. It has been known that Sheriff Babeu has been interviewed on Fox News numerous times and appears to be clear on how the illegal immigration problems have impacted his own county of Pinal, those surrounding his county and the population in a whole. Now he is accused of being in love with Fox News with ads stating ""Fox (News) seems to love Babeu as much as Babeu loves Fox." He responds by saying "They think this is an insult? You bet I love Fox News, because they're willing to tell the truth about the Obama administration. If not for Fox, nobody would be covering the "Fast and Furious" debacle, where Obama's Justice Department transferred over 2,000 guns to the Mexican drug cartels. These are the most dangerous criminals in North America, who have killed over 42,000 of their own people. Guns from "Fast and Furious" have turned up at crime scenes throughout Mexico, and were used to murder an American hero, Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry on American soil. The Obama Justice Department then denied Agent Terry's family victim status in a Court of law. Maybe "Media Matters" should investigate why other media outlets don't treat this for the national scandal that it is." Now as recent as the last two days, Fox News has covered the travesty of justice related to Border Agent Jesus Diaz and how the federal government violated his rights on the words of an illegal immigrant who was granted immunity to testify against this border agent that resulted in a 2 year incarceration sentence for this American lawman.

Only Fox News had the courage to view, ask questions and drive home their theme of being fair and balanced. Therefore, the relationship between Babeu and Fox News is welcomed in this concept and context anytime the truth has to be told to the American people as other media outlets muzzle the news and omit it deliberately in favor of the current administration in Washington D.C.

America's Toughest Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Palace

Maricopa County Jail ends lawsuit

Facts revealed over this period of time as described by JJ Hensley, a writer for the Arizona Republic in a story written on October 23, 2011, outlined serious discrepancies that created both unconstitutional and dangerous jail conditions to exist without much attention by jail officials to correct them immediately and choosing a path of litigation to stall reforms and eventual compliance. According to the Arizona Republic “Attorneys for inmates and the Sheriff's Office scheduled to present their cases to a federal judge last week in the decades-old fight canceled the hearings after lawyers on both sides agreed they were close enough to resolving a final few issues that they did not need to go before a judge.” This is good news for taxpayers who have been burdened with heavy settlements and costly oversight for years. The jail is not out from within this lawsuit as they have to deal with another separate piece of litigation over the medical and mental health care of jail prisoners.

Outstanding issues that need to be resolved are the agreement of a daily caloric intake for the meals served within the jail, overcrowding that has been a direct result of aggressive prosecution of crimes within the county and proper safety and sanitation issues that will improve the overall conditions of the jail within constitutional standards and resolution to decades of disagreement and discrepancies inside that jail. Records reveal that between the mid eighties and today many changes have been made to operate these county jail facilities as standards were adopted to ensure quality and preservation of humane treatment within these jails. Many standards have been adopted to prepare jail administrators to conform to acceptable operational standards and avoid the ignorance of the past that jail conditions must meet a minimum standard in order to avoid court ordered oversight.
Looking at one of those available resources out there nationwide is the National Institute of Corrections that has developed information that assists states and county jails with developing or updating standards and inspection programs to lower liabilities, improve key elements of operational concerns, technical assistance and the implementing of sound jail related programs to set models of proper operational methods for those who want the help in making jail improvements.

This would be a good time for the Maricopa Jail administrators to look at these resources available especially those created to enhance jail conditions into compliance. Taking a look at the mission of the National Jail Exchange Journal option for administrators it reads “. The mission of the National Jail Exchange is to promote and provide a vehicle for the free and open exchange of ideas, information, and innovation among jails professionals. Our belief is that, collectively, professionals are likely to have developed successful strategies to meet challenges that arise. Jails professionals and the local governments, states, communities, staff, and inmates they serve and represent benefit greatly when there are systematic ways to share information among each other.”

It has been said that the element of time can add benefits to improvements and changes. It can be agreed that this is partially truthful. On the other hand, time can also hide those problems that exist deep into the culture and conceal cultural deliberate indifference towards jail prisoners that result in neglect, abuse with associated risks of serious injuries or death if conditions exist that permit such incidents to occur. Since the arrest and prosecution of a former Maricopa County jailer who assaulted a mentally ill prisoner and was sentenced to do a one year sentence inside his former employer's jail, there are reasonable concerns that he was just a small portion of a culture that exists to punish jail prisoners for being in their custody even before their trials had commenced and not found guilty of any crimes or wrongdoings but subject to the pain and harassment of those who have assumed the role of the “punisher” inside these jails.

Now that the Maricopa Jail has overcome the litigation of previous concerns to this jail, perhaps now they will focus on another ongoing problem and seek assistance from the NIC and develop better training for employees in the area of supervising the severely mentally ill persons who are put in jails awaiting pre-trial status but subject to harsh conditions what is best described as a toxic environment where rules are broken by those who wear the badge of law and order and rights are ignored under the American Disability Act that covers such disproportionate conditions and makes coping inside a jail difficult. Looking at the current events in the Los Angeles County Jail where Sheriff Lee Baca is under fire for prisoner abuse and mistreatment, Sheriff Joe Arpaio can take a proactive course of action and begin correcting staff behaviors and conduct accordingly as outlined in those professionals standards contained with the manuals of the NIC jail programs.
