"Since the bill’s introduction to the Senate on March 20, word has spread like wildfire. In the 30-plus years I’ve been incarcerated—and there are nearly 1,000 of us who have now been in Georgia state prisons that long—this is a first." By Jimmy Iakovos: filtermag.org/georgia-parole…
"If this becomes law, everyone eligible for the hearing will request it. Everyone. Some may just want to be looked in the eye when they’re told to try again in eight years, but all of us have questions only the Parole Board can answer." By Jimmy Iakovos: filtermag.org/georgia-parole…
"...meth use is hard on your heart. So is sleeping outside. So is prison. So is poverty... but we don’t single out any of them to put on the death certificate; we do with meth, though." filtermag.org/meth-overdose-…
"Aligning CM with harm reduction wouldn't mean making urine drug screens more accessible to providers, or developing tests to measure reduction in use. We don't need harm-reduction versions of drug tests. We need to get rid of them." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/contingency-ma…
Check out Tony's latest article. filtermag.org/tennessee-pris…
"While no one was really watching, our unit built a community where LGBTQ prisoners and older prisoners are cared for. Since March, at least nine of us have been shipped to a more violent facility. The mood here is anxious and gloomy." By @cellsecrets: filtermag.org/tennessee-pris…
"Fentanyl 'poisoning' refers to inadvertent exposure, and 'overdose' to using more than was safe. What's the difference, when we're talking accidental deaths? All exposure to fentanyl you didn’t intend to use is inadvertent exposure." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/fentanyl-poiso…
If your request is cleared by the prison, and then by DOC, it'll then go to a different private company that does the scheduling. So 1-8 months after you asked to see a doctor, an appointment will be made for the following year. By Charles Williams: filtermag.org/private-prison…
Customs and Border Protection announced the operation from Nogales, Arizona, which sits across the border from the first location the agency said it will target. Nogales, Mexico, is the site of almost half of CBP’s fentanyl seizures. By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/cbp-operation-…
“They tried to refuse paying for the blood transfusion because they deemed it unnecessary," said Frenchie, who's been here for over a decade. "They put me on two medications I’d told them I was allergic to, because they were cheaper." By Charles Williams: filtermag.org/private-prison…
The new Customs and Border Protection operation focuses mainly on surveillance and seizures of fentanyl, fentanyl precursors, pill presses, weapons and of course cash. By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/cbp-operation-…
Yesterday in the overdose prevention center, someone asked my boss and I to test their fentanyl for xylazine. Neither of us use opioids. While opening the bag, spilled it on our bare hands. And then... nothing happened. Secondhand fentanyl OD is a myth. filtermag.org/florida-fentan…
"'Reckless exposure' just means possession. If someone detained by cops doesn't volunteer that they use drugs, and cops then find fentanyl while going through their belongings, now they can be threatened with a second-degree felony." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/florida-fentan…

A headline that will stop you in your tracks: The Private Prisons Industry Is Changing What Constitutes “Food” This important piece highlights the detrimental impact of the predatory for-profit prison food industry: filtermag.org/private-prison…
"Violence is common here, but torture isn’t. Prisoners felt strongly that if the facility were adequately staffed, the incident couldn’t have happened. That living unit used to have three guards at night. No one works nights there now." By Lucas Zane: filtermag.org/georgia-prison…
"It’s hard to make a tray of shit taste like food. But with food items you can afford to buy at commissary, or from kitchen workers hustling them out on the side, you can then get creative with the microwave in the day room." By @cellsecrets: filtermag.org/prison-food-vi…
"In addition to being frequently expired or unrefrigerated, meats can be stretched with fillers of unknown provenance, then mashed together. Then the result is served as something innocuous-sounding, like 'meatloaf' or 'casserole.'" By @cellsecrets: filtermag.org/private-prison…
"food has ... become a way for me to not just defuse threats to my own safety, but also the safety of neighbors, many of whom are also older, queer or otherwise especially vulnerable." filtermag.org/prison-food-vi…

The legislation would ban tobacco sales to anyone born on or after January 1, 2009. It would then increase the legal age of purchase by one year, every year—no one turning 15 in 2024 will ever be able to buy regulated tobacco products. By @KiranSidhu41: filtermag.org/uk-tobacco-and…
“I reached out to about six different people, and said ‘Am I wrong here? Does this sound terrifying?’” said Utah State Senator @jennifer_plumb. “Folks in recovery, who work in harm reduction with me...we all had this same [worry].” By @A_Lekhtman: filtermag.org/utah-drug-over…
In some cases, if an inspection shows that unlicensed storefront poses an “imminent threat to health and safety” law enforcement can padlock it on the spot. Tampering with the padlock will be punishable as a misdemeanor. By @A_Lekhtman: filtermag.org/new-york-unlic…
"...meth use is hard on your heart. So is sleeping outside. So is prison. So is poverty... but we don’t single out any of them to put on the death certificate; we do with meth, though." filtermag.org/meth-overdose-…
"Aligning CM with harm reduction wouldn't mean making urine drug screens more accessible to providers, or developing tests to measure reduction in use. We don't need harm-reduction versions of drug tests. We need to get rid of them." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/contingency-ma…

TN Private Prisons Quietly Transfer Us, This Time Without Saying Why BY TONY VICK Since the beginning of March, by our count at least nine men from this unit have been transferred without explanation. filtermag.org/tennessee-pris…
Today, I was able to share time and stories with a dear friend. She has a wonderful giving heart and was able to visit Tony a while back. I'll never be able to visit Tony myself, so I'm forever thankful for her being able to see him. It's been a great day! instagram.com/p/C56P9utOYfS/…
"While no one was really watching, our unit built a community where LGBTQ prisoners and older prisoners are cared for. Since March, at least nine of us have been shipped to a more violent facility. The mood here is anxious and gloomy." By @cellsecrets: filtermag.org/tennessee-pris…
"Fentanyl 'poisoning' refers to inadvertent exposure, and 'overdose' to using more than was safe. What's the difference, when we're talking accidental deaths? All exposure to fentanyl you didn’t intend to use is inadvertent exposure." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/fentanyl-poiso…
Customs and Border Protection announced the operation from Nogales, Arizona, which sits across the border from the first location the agency said it will target. Nogales, Mexico, is the site of almost half of CBP’s fentanyl seizures. By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/cbp-operation-…
If your request is cleared by the prison, and then by DOC, it'll then go to a different private company that does the scheduling. So 1-8 months after you asked to see a doctor, an appointment will be made for the following year. By Charles Williams: filtermag.org/private-prison…
The new Customs and Border Protection operation focuses mainly on surveillance and seizures of fentanyl, fentanyl precursors, pill presses, weapons and of course cash. By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/cbp-operation-…
Yesterday in the overdose prevention center, someone asked my boss and I to test their fentanyl for xylazine. Neither of us use opioids. While opening the bag, spilled it on our bare hands. And then... nothing happened. Secondhand fentanyl OD is a myth. filtermag.org/florida-fentan…
“They tried to refuse paying for the blood transfusion because they deemed it unnecessary," said Frenchie, who's been here for over a decade. "They put me on two medications I’d told them I was allergic to, because they were cheaper." By Charles Williams: filtermag.org/private-prison…
"'Reckless exposure' just means possession. If someone detained by cops doesn't volunteer that they use drugs, and cops then find fentanyl while going through their belongings, now they can be threatened with a second-degree felony." By @kastaliamedrano: filtermag.org/florida-fentan…
