THE UNDERTAKER IS DEAD! CUMMINS UNIT WARDEN DALE REED ORDERED THIS DEMONIC PIECE OF EQUIPMENT REMOVED FROM THE UNIT AND NEVER AGAIN RETURNED! A NEW LAUNDRY CART SYSTEM IS NOW IN PLACE AT THE UNIT AND MANY INJURIES AND DEATHS WILL BE PREVENTED AS A RESULT. I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU WHO SENT MESSAGES TO THE GOVERNOR TO SEE THIS ACCOMPLISHED AND WE ALL WANT TO THANK WARDEN REED FOR THIS FIRST ACTION TO MAKE THE ADC A MORE HUMANE INSTITUTION. READ THE NOVEMBER 20 ARKANSAS JOURNAL ENTRY ABOUT THE DEMISE OF THE UNDERTAKER



On July 15, 1999, at about high noon, The Undertaker claimed yet another victim. Inmate Michael Rodgers, #101980 accidentally lost control of the fully loaded cart on the West Hall and severely sliced and mangled his hand and arm as the momentum and mass of the cart pushed his body through the reinforced safety glass door in front of the riot gate.

Michael Rodgers was bleeding profusely and a nearby officer ordered him to be taken immediately to the Infirmary to be treated.

While some medical treatment was being administered, in order to cover the asinine, inept butts of the ADC once again, two ranking officers wrote incident reports stating that Inmate Rodgers had been horseplaying with the cart by "swinging" from the handlebars like a monkey as the cart was hurling down the hall. However, the officer who requested medical attention for Rodgers had seen an entirely different thing. In fact, the falseness of the report from some of the officers is exposed simply by the fact that it is not possible to "swing" from the bars of the cart while it is in motion, simply because it is fulcrumed on two wheels, where even a push of a finger down would ram the cart into the ground, or up and stop the roll of the cart from the resistance of the rear end dragging on the cement floor.

More, the bullet-like hole made by the blunted handlebar as it punched through the reinforced glass is at waist level - again meaning that Inmate Rodgers could not have been swinging on the handlebars simply because it is a veritable physical impossibility for the handlebars to have punched a waist-level hole into the glass and then rammed Rodgers through it if the weight of his body had been pushing or pulling down on the bars at the end of a two wheel fulcrum in the center of the cart.

No, it is as one of the other officers accurately said: as Rodgers was passing through the swinging glass doors in front of the riot gate the person who had opened the doors to allow Rodgers through let go, and the frame of the door on one side where the reinforced glass is inset snagged on the handlebar and turned the cart to ram into the glass, completely beyond Rodgers' control. But, of course, this version of the facts would subject Rodgers' keepers to legal actions, particularly if he was bright enough to assert the criminal negligence associated to the constant injury caused by this asinine, ignorant, and irresponsible practice.

Needless to say, the incident was then officially "written up" as though it was Rodgers' fault even though one officer's truthful account indicates that it was an accident.

The callousness and cruelty of prison staff is also made known by the fact that a few weeks previously, the Laundry Supervisor had issued a memorandum stating that henceforth three inmates were required to attend the laundry cart at all times in order to protect against damages to the doors and glass throughout the building (to hell with the safety and well-being of the inmates).

Inmate Michael Rodgers was subsequently written a major disciplinary report for some unspecified rule infraction - something which he certainly knew in advance would happen to him. Therefore, as a direct result of the prison staff's incompetence, callousness and criminal negligence Rodgers' sentence will be extended, his "preferred" job will be taken away and he will be required to endure yet another stint on the hoe squads and otherwise be made to suffer punishment.

Inmate Michael Rodgers has also been charged with having to pay for the safety glass that "he broke" while getting his arm and hand sliced up nicely. The glass itself would cost $23. However, he was also billed for $15 for the free world supervisor that oversaw the replacement of the pane (who is already on state salary), and $15 for the inmate labor involved in replacing the broken glass - whose job assignment is mandatory under threat of disciplinary sanctions and who gets paid nothing under any circumstances. Why is the state actually billing for inmate labor? Some good ol' boy will be $30 richer still, that's why - and that's assuming that the pane of safety glass was not already scrapped our on one of the inventories and actually cost nothing at all.
