I got to CIM level one minimum yard Feb 22, 2019 and have yet to see any of the things that they told me about. At this place it still seems to be about punishment and not rehab like it says in the title of CDCR. There is so much division here amongst staff, inmates, free staff, it is very discouraging. We were promised microwaves and here at CIM the other two yards has gotten theirs and we have yet to receive ours or a reason as to the delay.

Some yards are still being stand offish towards the LGBTQ community. They refuse to let them be housed in the West dorm setting, which is a single cell unit. South dorm allows them to house there where I am currently housed and there have been no problems between them and the rest of the inmates in here.

No one can stop all the things that go on in a prison setting. Violence, drugs, removals, it’s going to happen because there is nothing new under the sun. What’s done has been done and it will continue to be done. Each of us is created for a purpose, some for honor some for dishonor. So in order for things to stop, the good Lord would have to create robots with no free will. And according to the Word, that’s not something he is going to do. Or whoever your higher power is because if he/she was go- ing to do it, it would’ve been done long ago.

I have spent the last 10 plus years working my way down this prison system. You would think the lower you go the better it would be, but no. It gets worse. Some of us have made mistakes whether it’s the first or however many it’s been. To be on this low yard most of us have learned a lesson and just want to go home. I know I am. Lord willing I’ll be home soon, but I will still try and fight for the rights and the equality for all inmates no matter who they are or what they done. I’m not the judge God is.

Hello San Quentin News,

Just want to say that you are doing a really good job and San Quentin News is one of the few newspapers that I read regularly. The difference between San Quentin News and other media is that it is genuine and credible, which in this context means everything.

I am from Sweden myself, live in Denmark and I look forward to more good articles and hope you all have a good day,

Best Regards Jonas

To San Quentin News,
I write to you because there is a problem that

many inmates are having with the interpretation of SB136, the new law that removes the 1-year prison prior enhancement. The counselors are telling us that they know nothing about it. The case records departments are saying that it is up to the inmate to petition the court, and the courts are saying that it is up to the prison admin to recalculate your time. On top of that some people are saying that SB136 isn’t retroactive so people already sentenced don’t qualify. But even if that’s true SB136 clearly states and I quote, “SB136 removes the 1-year sentence enhancement that is applied to current sentences.” Please can you bring some clarity to this very important issue?

Your loyal reader, S. Chase

Affected California Inmates Hope to Challenge Their Restitution Obligations

California inmates have privately expressed hope in reducing or possibly eliminating their restitution obligations in the wake of Timbs v. Indiana (Timbs), 2019 US LEXIS 1350,203 L. Ed. 2d 11, the United States Supreme Court decision that found the Excessive Fines Clause of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution applies to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due process clause.

In Timbs, a defendant pled guilty drug and theft offenses. Based on these criminal convictions, the State of Indiana initiated a civil suit under its civil forfeiture laws to seize Defendant’s Land Rover (“vehicle”) since it was used to transport drugs. Since the vehicle’s value ($42,000) exceeded the maximum fine allowed under the applicable penal statutes ($10,000) defendant pled guilty to, the trial court and Court of Appeals found that the forfeiture of the vehicle would be “grossly disproportionate to the gravity” of the defendant’s offense and thus, would be unconstitutional under the Eighth Amendment.

However, the Indiana Supreme Court, without decid- ing whether the fine was excessive, held that the Excessive Fines Clause only applies to the federal government and does not apply to the fines imposed by a state.

In reversing the Indiana Supreme Court, the Timbs court held that the Excessive Fines Clause of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution applies to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Pro- cess clause and remanded the case back to the Indiana courts for further proceedings not inconsistent with its holding.

In California, recent California appellate decisions have come to conflicting decisions on whether a defendant must object to the restitution amount at his or her sentencing. For example, in People v. Frandsen (2019), 33 Cal.App. 5th 1126 the Second Appellate District, Di- vision Eight, found the restitution challenge forfeited on appeal because the defendant did not object to the restitution fine at sentencing. But in People v. Jones (2019) 36 Cal.App.5th 1028, the Fourth Appellate District, Divi- sion Two, found the restitution challenge not forfeited on appeal, even if the defendant did not object to the restitution fine at sentencing. Clearly, many restitution issues will need to be decided by the California Supreme Court and California Appellate courts to provide guidance to trial courts and the legal bar.

If inmates believe that their restitution amounts may violate the Excessive Fines Clause of the Eighth Amendment, an inmate may obtain relief by exhausting their administrative remedies through the CDCR 602 process and, if the issue is not resolved at Third Level Appeal stage, then filing a petition for a writ of habeas corpus with the appropriate court may be necessary.

CDCR and CCHCS Unveil Expanded Priorities

Through Renewed Mission and Vision Statements

SACRAMENTO — The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and California Correctional Health Care Services (CCHCS) have unveiled expanded mission and vision statements meant to reflect the joint priorities of creating a prison environment that provides the incarcerated population with the tools necessary to be drug-free, healthy, and employable members of society upon their release.
The expanded priorities in the new mission and vision statements focus on enhancing public safety by providing treatment, rehabilitative, and restorative justice programs to our population, in a safe and humane environment. The new vision and mis- sion statements result from legislation in 2016 (AB 2590) that added restorative justice to the purpose of imprisonment, along with punishment and rehabilitation, and directed CDCR to update its mission statement accordingly.
“We are envisioning new ways of fulfilling our mission of public safety that align with our ideals and values for 2020,” said Ralph Diaz, CDCR Secretary, and J. Clark Kelso, CCHCS Receiver, in a joint statement. “Most of California’s incarcerated individuals will one day return to their community. When we address the roots of criminality through addiction treatment, mental health care, and education, combined with reentry services in the community, we are helping to make California safer and more productive.”
Vision

We enhance public safety and promote successful community reintegration through education, treatment and active participation in rehabilitative and restorative justice programs.

Mission
To facilitate the successful reintegration of the individuals in our care back to their communities equipped with

the tools to be drug-free, healthy, and employable members of society by providing education, treatment, rehabilitative, and restorative justice programs, all in a safe and humane environment.
Some highlighted examples of how CDCR and CCHCS are fulfilling their new missions:
Expanding substance use treatment: In 2020, CDCR and CCHCS will roll out an enhanced Integrated Substance Use Disorder Treatment program, which uses a scientifically based treatment approach to battle the chronic illness of addiction. This program will offer participants medicated assisted treatment, comprehensive cognitive behavioral interventions and safe, therapeutic housing. This initiative will focus on whole-person treatment from incarceration through return to the community.

Addressing criminality: CDCR has increased capacity in Cognitive Behavioral Intervention programs focused on criminal thinking, anger management, family relationships, and victim impact by almost 300 percent over the last five years. Career training: The department has more than doubled the capacity of Career Technical Education opportunities, providing our population with real-world job skills. The new “Microhome” initiatives at Correctional Training Facility in Soledad and Folsom State Prison in Sacramento provide in-demand job training to help inmates succeed when they return to society.

College education: CDCR offers face-to-face community college programming in 34 prisons, with more opportunities growing every day. When California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi offered only distance learning college courses, it averaged 200 to 250 participants a year. When the prison introduced face-to-face courses, in partnership with Cerro Coso Community College in 2017, enrollment in those classes jumped to 740 with an additional 200 enrolled in distance learning courses. Providing face-to-face instruction at Kern Valley State Prison, offered through Bakersfield College, increased the number of students from 30 to 498.

Restorative justice: In 2019, CDCR awarded grants to eligible nonprofit organizations to implement victim impact programs in California prisons. These programs will share a common goal of giving victims the opportunity for their voices to be heard and for incarcerated men and women to fully understand the consequences of their actions.
Reentry: Since 2014-2015, CDCR has increased its Transitions reentry program capacity from 2,430 to 20,734, a more than 753 percent increase. Transitions is a five-week program provided near the end of an inmate’s incarceration to focus on their community reentry needs; such as, financial literacy, job search skills, and provides community resources. This increase aligns with our priority of facilitating the successful reintegration of individuals in our care back to their communities.

Community partnerships: We continue to expand our relationships with community partners throughout California, including an historic undertaking to open the first-ever firefighter training program for recently-paroled firefighters. Through a partnership with CAL FIRE, California Conservation Corps and the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, the Ventura Training Center provides advanced industry training and reentry services aimed at helping those who served as incarcerated firefighters find success in the fire service field.

Can America continue to ignore the massive impact excessively harsh incarceration tactics are having on this country? How many children must go through life without a mother or father because we refuse to address alternative resources that would allow fami- lies to be reunited sooner.

Most child psychologist agree that alienating children from either parent leads to “toxic stress” resulting in lasting psychological and physical health problems. As children grow older without parental guidance of both parents, it can also lead to criminal behavior spurred from the anger or confusion of a missing parent in their life for so long.

Almost all – 91 percent – agreed that the US criminal justice system needs reform. 61 percent preferred shorter sentences to spending on incarceration. Eighty-nine percent of crime victims favored additional spending on schools and education over build- ing more prisons and jails.

So it seems the only ones who support excessive incarceration is our government. The people have spoken and are largely against excessive sentencing, and for prison reform. The government does not control the civilian, we control the government. They serve America. It’s time for the government to do what the public demands of it.

Dear San Quentin News,

My name is Jessie Garcia from Centinela Prison. I’ve been read- ing the articles in the San Quentin paper about running for a few years now.

I started a 100 mile club about four years ago here at Centinela. We currently start from July 1st to June 30th for runners to com- plete 100 miles or more. We have between 40 to 50 runners. We have about 20 who complete between 100 to 1,000 and a few who complete over 2,000 miles.

We started this year having a 3 mile race. I’m planning on expanding to have 2 mile and 6 mile races also. The reasons I’m writing is to ask if the next time you get ready to have a 3 mile race if it would be alright if you let me know 4-6 weeks ahead of time and we can run one over here and can send you our times to compare with your runners and see how we place. Kind of like a competition. I hope this is something you would be interested in so we could get other prisons to do the same.

I hope that you take this into consideration. Sincerely,
Jess Garcia, Centinela State Prison

To San Quentin News,

My name is Danna Dan Vongamath, I am finally in prison at the Wasco State Prison Reception Center. But before I caught the chain, I was housed in a facility (a county jail) in Orange County. While I was there fighting my case for six months. I never in my entire life have taken so much verbal abuse, threats, personal property abuse, causing tension between other races fights and riots, all from an Orange County deputy. I am so tired of not say- ing anything, so tired being scared to talk about it. These past couple of months, inmates and deputies were getting into it. But the local county newspapers made us inmates look like the inci- dences with the deputies were for no reasons and that we are the ones with animal like behavior. I don’t ever think a deputy will ever come forward to the media that he has been abusing his power. How can we stop being abused? Who’s right and who’s wrong? Because they have a badge does that make them have the right to inflict pain and harm, mentally and physically? This is America so America I’m asking for your help.

San Quentin News,

In writing this letter, I express a grave concern I have regarding the Prop. 57 law. My main concern is the fact that it was created with discriminating efforts. Discriminating towards violent offend- ers. Violent offenders need just as much help as anyone else serving time. It makes no sense to exclude them, simply because their crime was considered “violent.” How are we (violent offend- ers) supposed to successively transition into society after serving an extensive amount of time behind bars? Milestones, they can have milestones! That’s all? What about all these enhancements and add-ons for a crime we’ve already paid for? Milestones will definitely help, but are not sufficient enough for proper rehabilita- tion. SB1393 takes away the 5-year enhancement for a serious felony and SB136 takes away the 1-year enhancement for prior felonies. What about the 3-year enhancement for a violent felony? Once again, laws are coming into existence that are backed by discriminating preference!

I’m not complaining, I know I messed up, but seriously an 11-year sentence to be served at 85% (now 80%) is a bit excessive! And, not being eligible to the many benefits that are available through Prop. 57 hurts me. I just want to get well, and part of getting well is making it home to my wife and family as soon as possible.

Prisoners’ Lives Matter

People don’t stop being humans when they offend society and commit crime
On the contrary we lose some of our best citizens at their prime In fact it is inside of their cell that many prisoners rehabilitate themselves

Coming out into society as reformed people having left the older version
Of their lives behind on prison shelves

Instead of breaking the fallen down even further we should pick them up
Let them drink from the fountain of change till they do away with their hiccup

They did wrong and must be held accountable for their acts Recidivism is a blight on society and statistics prove these facts

Men and women deserve a second chance when they are locked away in prison
These are our fellow citizens who went astray with their vision
A prison number doesn’t make them any less of a human being We all just have to guide their sight back to a civilized way of seeing

Drugs play a major role in their fall
Addicted to chemical substances under the influence of alcohol Many were at their lowest common denominator when they became criminals
Therefore we must all stand up and mentor better choices for the millennials

We can’t just lock up our citizens and throw away the key
The ultimate goal is to rehabilitate them so they can contribute to society
The world can’t afford to only see incarcerated people through the lens of
Their past clutter and clatter
Although we must never forget the victims of crime prisoners lives also matter

To San Quentin News:

I’ve written before about how I was shocked at the intelligence, integrity and openness of your writers. These feeling of mine are strengthened with each issue.

I get to read words from actual real people who have evolved from desperate, fierce criminals…who have transformed themselves into beings of compassion. I am not making this up. There are examples of this all through the San Quentin News…

Then in the September 2019 issue on page 17 in News Briefs (#4), Sharee Miller, in prison for murder, speaks of the OPPOSITE: ac- tual law officers performing horrendous torture. This is something ELSE that goes on that I’d not known: there are people whose job it is to PROTECT humans from torture and crime, who are themselves “desperate, fierce criminals…” and Miller having the guts and integrity to report it, at her OWN risk.

The San Quentin News helps me see the WHOLE picture. I send blessings and support and love to all San Quentin people.

To Editor,

I’m over here in Corcoran State Prison, in the ASU (Security Hous- ing Unit). I came across your newspaper while searching for the legal library address there at San Quentin. First I would like to say good work, the paper is great. Keep up the good work. Next I am trying to request a recall and resentencing form for the enhance- ments I was given. It’s Assembly Bill 2942-Penal Code 1170(d) (1). I’ve been struggling trying to get this form for a minute, any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and help.

Respectfully,
Randall Hinson, Corcoran State Prison

Dear San Quentin News,

First and foremost I would like to thank ya’ll for publishing my ar- ticle in the October 2019 issue, titled “Pelican Bay Inmates Break- down Barriers of Stigmatization.” It’s important that people all over especially California see the faces of the people who are making a heartfelt solid effort to stop racial tensions, violence in prison. Daily we are tested.

A lot of people do not like to see African Americans, Whites and Mexicans playing sports together, taking pictures together or greeting each other with a hug. Sometimes C/O’s say we are get- ting soft. Teaching individuals methodology instead of ideology is hard work. Getting people to think has always been a tough job, yet we are having success at Pelican Bay. I’m hoping my article reaches gangs everywhere and influences them to try peace to make our communities safer. A special shout out to all of ya’ll at the San Quentin. Be on the lookout for more of my writings.

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas. Emphatically, Little John Perry, Pelican Bay State Prison

In your April 2019 (Edition 115) issue of the SQ News ran an article about my having been found suitable for parole after nearly 50 years of imprisonment.

Now, ordinarily I would’ve felt honored that the editorial staff of SQ News had taken an interest in my situation. I have long admired the [organization’s] efforts around humanizing prisoners, promoting a higher level of understanding between citizens in the greater community and incarcerated population.

To begin with, the title. The unfortunate placement of an apostrophe (Manson’s Follower) makes it seem as if I were the only follower Manson had – when in fact I was never at any time a follower of his. While I was an associate of Charles Manson and his so-called family, I was not a resident member of the group or a follower of Manson. Since then, or until recently, I have usually been referred to as an associate or former associate, terms, I don’t much mind being used in that context.

Bobby Beausoleil

I can and do forgive the editorial staff for failing to preserve journalistic integrity in this case.

Enclosed is a copy of an open letter I wrote to my family and friends a few weeks later.

A few weeks have lurched by since I received a letter from Gov. Gavin Newsom informing me that the parole board’s decision to grant my parole had been rescinded by his office. Since then I have been sitting with my thoughts and assessing my feelings around this development.

There is the profound disappointment of being confronted by yet another setback, attended by a lot of other emotions. Certainly, I share many of these feelings with all the people who care about me, who have been let down by this outcome as well.

From a place of experiencing it firsthand, my heart goes out to the thousands of men and women, and their families and friends, who have been subjected to this specific kind of treatment. It is a cruel system that holds out the promise of a second chance after decades of imprisonment only to snatch it back at the last minute. I would be lying to myself and everyone else if I said it doesn’t hurt.

In this desperately confused and fearful era we’re living in, too many people are retreat- ing to their respective tribal camps, building the walls around them higher and higher while painting others thought to be outside of them with brushes loaded with shades of stark black and white, fingers twitching over the butts of their weapons just in case someone crosses a line. Too few people are willing to listen to a point of view that may be at some odds with their own; too few are willing to forgive wrongful or insulting behaviors they perceive in the other.

Nelson Mandela – a man who suffered greatly while imprisoned by the state for his stance against tyranny – famously said that the withholding of forgiveness is a poison one takes while hoping someone else will die. My arrival at this understanding comes out of having experienced both sides of the equation.

As politicians come, Gavin Newsom is a good one. I continue to believe he will do many good things for the people. For this very reason, he is attracting quite a lot of opposition to his policies and decisions, and some of it is uncompromisingly hostile. This early in his governor- ship he must be cautious in deciding what battles he will take on. My case presents some extra challenges due to its being associated with crimes that garner a lot of public fascination and the greater scrutiny this may bring to decisions relating to it. Some who are in opposition to my parole have chosen to politicize the process by exploiting this.

There is no blame here; at least not aimed at anyone outside of myself. This is just another thing I must bear in consequence to some terrible failures in my youth. I alone own responsibility for my past failings. Unfortunately, not all the consequences are borne by me alone. To everyone who feels hurt or shame or sadness as a result of this current setback and the attention around it, I am truly sorry.

My release on parole will be reviewed again in a year. In the meantime, I will continue to plan and prepare for my eventual release from prison as I have been since the parole grant in January, because it would be foolish to wait until the decision becomes final before making these preparations.

To all those kind-hearted souls who have advocated for my release, know that I continue to draw encouragement from your support. I express my gratitude in my resolve to carry on in my fight for the simple dignity of redemption and reconciliation. God gave me this ground to stand on, and by God I will stand on it.

In peace and serenity, love holding at the center, trusting to the supreme intelligence at the foundation of all existence.

Worthy of Their Sacrifices
I had been incarcerated for almost seven years. I coasted through the system, took a large

amount of classes just for show and tried to avoid the everyday drama of prison yard politics. I continued to blame my victim (my wife Renee) for the crime I am responsible for, took no accountability, and just didn’t “get it.” I only wanted to falsely fill the empty voids in my life and get out of prison as soon as possible. Then, on February 17, 2018, I was called to the property room and my life was forever changed.

I knew I hadn’t ordered any items and really didn’t want to depart my weekend TV shows. I reluctantly got dressed and went to property, where I had to wait in line, outside, during winter in the Midwest. I made it to the window, signed the yellow property receipt, and received a book with some papers attached. The book looked cool with the face of a soldier on the front and was titled Stories of Faith and Courage from the War in Iraq and Afghanistan. I read the letter of support that was heartfelt and filled with compassion, knowledge and direction. It was from Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee. Her son, Marc Lee, was the first Navy SEAL killed in Iraq: Aug. 2, 2006 – Battle for Ramadi. I remembered Marc’s death due to the fact I was attending combat medic school and preparing for war that year.

As I started to turn the pages of my new found treasure, I noticed a handwritten message on the dedication page. I studied those monumental words, written in red ink, and it felt like a prize fighter had punched me in my solar plexus. My breathing paused, I felt my pulse bounding, eyes glossed over, and my pupils narrowed as I experienced a visual osmosis of the message. Several deceased soldiers, my friends, flashed before my eyes. I saw it, and by God, I felt it. The message: “Shon, live your life worthy of their sacrifices.” – Debbie Lee

——————————————————–

My emotions and thoughts went into a thousand directions as if a hand grenade went off inside my head. My past dishonesty, lack of moral courage and integrity, those I harmed, my suicide attempts, and chaos I created needs to be addressed. I wanted to save the world right now – at this moment. I needed to make things right for my family, community, veterans and God.

Accompanying the book and letter from Mrs. Lee was a copy of Marc’s last letter home – before this death. Marc’s Glory Letter emphasized “purity, morals and kindness.” I realized I first needed to bring closure to my crime – if there ever can be – by telling the truth, exposing my faults, and hoping that others can start to heal.

The first step was to admit all of my offenses, to the best of my memory, since alcohol was a contributor. I started by writing down the turmoil I put my family through. I compiled those events into a 10-page essay titled Demobilization. I needed to tell the story and bring my wife back to life. Not only was she a teacher at a college of nursing, she worked in an emergency room on weekends. I’m a numbers guy. With Renee’s untimely death, caused by me, there is a ripple effect in the universe. I have to account for every nurse she may have taught in her classes that would have gone on to save lives. Not only that, but also those she would have directly affected by working in the ER. Those are some big numbers. Her passion was helping others. I have to carry on her life’s purpose. I can’t work in the medical field due to the felony conviction, but I will share the story in hopes of preventing other families from pain and destruction. So I called up a television station and agreed to admit to what I did on the air. I had previously told many lies about my wife in an attempt to justify my crime. I needed to start being a man and “worthy of their sacrifices” for our country.

As my passion and zeal shot out of the gate like a bull, I’m still a work in progress. I recon- struct my personal identity by showing love through service to others. I have to reorient my identity significantly with the limitations of being a felon. That message, in my heart, came from a multitude of sources – Debbie Lee, Marc Lee, Renee and God.

I now have a purpose, a mission and a lot of work to do.
