Investigate Menard Correctional Center Staff and Procedures.

If we truly yearn for change and a decrease in the crime rate, then we need to send message to prisoners that we welcome them to be civilized and abide by the law. And we need to send a message to the prison officials that we won’t tolerate them squandering tax payers money by incentivizing prisoners to stay the same. Right now we’re all paying to house and rehabilitate these prisoners to reduce the rate of recidivision, not just store them away. So it can be said that our money is being wasted, not because prisoners refuse to change but because the system won’t allow them to. It’s time to march on Springfield and demand answers.

  1. Why is Internal Affairs allowed to go ungoverned?

  2. Why an officer allowed to be a c/o, counselor, food supervisor, IA, chaplain ect?

  3. Why are prison staff allowed to retaliate against prisoners that file complaints against them?

  4. Why are prison staff allowed to break IDOC rules without consequences?

  5. Why has no one from Springfield ever interviewed Kenyatta Brown concerning his complaints?

  6. Why is racism allowed at Menard?

  7. Why are prisoners killed by staff at Menard?

  8. Why is Menard staff spitting in prisoners food? Not feeding them? Putting plastic bags over inmates heads and spraying mace in them? Why are they still using racial slurs?

  9. Why is Menard holding Kenyatta Brown there?

  10. Why is Menard still open?
