The formerly incarcerated man said he was still able to give commands to other Mexican Mafia gang members, either from his cell or in meetings at the prison law library. “I used to run a whole crew from the SHU [special housing unit],” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The varying definitions of solitary confinement in California make tracking the number of people in solitary difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that there are other units around the state under different names that are called step-down units or other things like that where, in practice, people are still spending 22, 23, 24 hours a day in solitary confinement,” Reiter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that’s one of her concerns about the bill: If prison and jail officials can simply call solitary confinement another name, then they probably will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state prison system is one version of solitary confinement, but the 58 counties each have their own jails with their own definitions of the practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendelson, of the Prison Law Office, described the county incarceration system in California as “the Wild West for solitary confinement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is nothing limiting the totally unprincipled and excessive use of solitary confinement in county jail,” said Mendelson, who has regular contact with incarcerated people at jails in Northern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In those county jails, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said he’s faced with a changing population, and he needs solitary confinement to deal with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prison realignment, mandated by \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billAnalysisClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120AB109\">Assembly Bill 109 in 2011\u003c/a>, reduced prison populations in part by housing more people at county jails. Honea, who is also the president of the California State Sheriffs’ Association, said that led to a “more criminally sophisticated inmate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re dealing with people who have long criminal histories and prior experience in state prison,” Honea said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Then those prison politics, which used to not be so prevalent in county jails, now are far more prevalent,” he said. “The last 12 years, there are increased assaults on staff. Our facilities generally were not designed to meet the needs of these individuals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honea said he and other sheriffs also need to be able to use long-term solitary confinement for disruptive people suffering from mental health disorders who put themselves and others in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not suggesting solitary is a solution to mental health. The impact that solitary confinement and administrative segregation can have on mental health is out there,” Honea said. “But we can deal with that without simply mandating something that would apply across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriffs’ association wrote in opposition to the bill that the Board of State and Community Corrections, rather than the Legislature, should regulate the use of solitary confinement. The board sets standards for prisons and jails and conducts inspections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Costs disputed\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The projected cost to the California prison system is \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/covid-health-california-immigration-government-and-politics-17e5a54ddcdfabbed3df83bc39df93c7\">$1.3 billion up front\u003c/a>, with another $200 million per year to pay for more staff. The costs to county jails would vary by location. Honea said he did not yet know the potential cost to the Butte County Jail should Newsom approve the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the bill’s supporters argue the measure would actually save the state money. \u003ca href=\"https://imadvocates.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Solitary-Cost-Report-AB2632.pdf\">In a report published in July\u003c/a>, the nonprofit Immigration Defense Advocates argued that solitary units “require more custody staff.” Closing down solitary confinement facilities and repurposing them for other uses would be “covered by the massive savings generated by this transition,” the report found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Solitary confinement is usually reserved for disruptive or violent people, or validated gang members. But at least one formerly incarcerated Californian, \u003ca href=\"https://solitarywatch.org/2020/09/02/inside-the-hole-enduring-solitary-confinement-in-california/\">author Kenneth E. Hartman, wrote in 2020 on the website Solitary Watch\u003c/a> that he was put in solitary confinement for political reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartman was convicted of murder and sentenced to life without parole in 1980; former Gov. Jerry Brown commuted his sentence in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartman contends the reasons he was placed in solitary confinement included testifying against the prison system in federal court, organizing a letter-writing campaign to legislators and encouraging fellow incarcerated people to sign political petitions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation did not respond to a request for comment on Hartman’s allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you look at solitary, what you see is people who are challenging the system in some way,” Reiter said. “Challenging its categories, challenging its rules, and that makes it harder to reform, right? Because these are the people that the system is struggling to deal with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendelson of the Prison Law Office said limiting solitary confinement doesn’t mean the prison or jail is unable to take any disciplinary measures at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, she said, a facility would still be permitted to house a problematic person in a single cell. But the additional burdens of solitary confinement — 22 or 23 hours per day in a cell, with no opportunity for education or socialization — would end.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That doesn’t mean there can’t be a significant set of consequences,” Mendelson said. “Those consequences just can’t be torture, which is what solitary confinement is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former member of the Mexican Mafia doubts that approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look, is it a bad place? Sure,” he said. “But they have to have bad places for bad people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The formerly incarcerated man said he was still able to give commands to other Mexican Mafia gang members, either from his cell or in meetings at the prison law library. “I used to run a whole crew from the SHU [special housing unit],” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The varying definitions of solitary confinement in California make tracking the number of people in solitary difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that there are other units around the state under different names that are called step-down units or other things like that where, in practice, people are still spending 22, 23, 24 hours a day in solitary confinement,” Reiter said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that’s one of her concerns about the bill: If prison and jail officials can simply call solitary confinement another name, then they probably will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state prison system is one version of solitary confinement, but the 58 counties each have their own jails with their own definitions of the practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendelson, of the Prison Law Office, described the county incarceration system in California as “the Wild West for solitary confinement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is nothing limiting the totally unprincipled and excessive use of solitary confinement in county jail,” said Mendelson, who has regular contact with incarcerated people at jails in Northern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In those county jails, Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea said he’s faced with a changing population, and he needs solitary confinement to deal with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prison realignment, mandated by \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billAnalysisClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120AB109\">Assembly Bill 109 in 2011\u003c/a>, reduced prison populations in part by housing more people at county jails. Honea, who is also the president of the California State Sheriffs’ Association, said that led to a “more criminally sophisticated inmate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re dealing with people who have long criminal histories and prior experience in state prison,” Honea said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Then those prison politics, which used to not be so prevalent in county jails, now are far more prevalent,” he said. “The last 12 years, there are increased assaults on staff. Our facilities generally were not designed to meet the needs of these individuals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honea said he and other sheriffs also need to be able to use long-term solitary confinement for disruptive people suffering from mental health disorders who put themselves and others in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not suggesting solitary is a solution to mental health. The impact that solitary confinement and administrative segregation can have on mental health is out there,” Honea said. “But we can deal with that without simply mandating something that would apply across the state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sheriffs’ association wrote in opposition to the bill that the Board of State and Community Corrections, rather than the Legislature, should regulate the use of solitary confinement. The board sets standards for prisons and jails and conducts inspections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Costs disputed\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The projected cost to the California prison system is \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/covid-health-california-immigration-government-and-politics-17e5a54ddcdfabbed3df83bc39df93c7\">$1.3 billion up front\u003c/a>, with another $200 million per year to pay for more staff. The costs to county jails would vary by location. Honea said he did not yet know the potential cost to the Butte County Jail should Newsom approve the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the bill’s supporters argue the measure would actually save the state money. \u003ca href=\"https://imadvocates.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Solitary-Cost-Report-AB2632.pdf\">In a report published in July\u003c/a>, the nonprofit Immigration Defense Advocates argued that solitary units “require more custody staff.” Closing down solitary confinement facilities and repurposing them for other uses would be “covered by the massive savings generated by this transition,” the report found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Solitary confinement is usually reserved for disruptive or violent people, or validated gang members. But at least one formerly incarcerated Californian, \u003ca href=\"https://solitarywatch.org/2020/09/02/inside-the-hole-enduring-solitary-confinement-in-california/\">author Kenneth E. Hartman, wrote in 2020 on the website Solitary Watch\u003c/a> that he was put in solitary confinement for political reasons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartman was convicted of murder and sentenced to life without parole in 1980; former Gov. Jerry Brown commuted his sentence in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartman contends the reasons he was placed in solitary confinement included testifying against the prison system in federal court, organizing a letter-writing campaign to legislators and encouraging fellow incarcerated people to sign political petitions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation did not respond to a request for comment on Hartman’s allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you look at solitary, what you see is people who are challenging the system in some way,” Reiter said. “Challenging its categories, challenging its rules, and that makes it harder to reform, right? Because these are the people that the system is struggling to deal with.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendelson of the Prison Law Office said limiting solitary confinement doesn’t mean the prison or jail is unable to take any disciplinary measures at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, she said, a facility would still be permitted to house a problematic person in a single cell. But the additional burdens of solitary confinement — 22 or 23 hours per day in a cell, with no opportunity for education or socialization — would end.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That doesn’t mean there can’t be a significant set of consequences,” Mendelson said. “Those consequences just can’t be torture, which is what solitary confinement is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former member of the Mexican Mafia doubts that approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look, is it a bad place? Sure,” he said. “But they have to have bad places for bad people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This right here shouldn’t be happening.

Congress can change the rate, but \u003ca href=\"https://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4726&context=caselrev\">hasn’t done so since 1978\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Senators Dianne Feinstein and Alex Padilla declined a request for comment. But Padilla is “actively engaged on the issues being raised” at Mesa Verde and Golden State Annex, according to a spokesperson for the senator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He is working to increase transparency on how these concerns are being addressed in order to ensure proper oversight,” the spokesperson said in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Mousa sent to solitary due to demonstration\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Mousa said he was kept in isolation until Thursday because he was “standing up for his rights and the rights of other detainees,” including by signing his name on a letter supporting the work stoppage on June 28.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s retaliation, it’s cruel, it’s punishment,” said Mousa, adding that his depression and anxiety have soared. “They want to break me. They want me to stop advocating. I’m already in hell. Detention is hell.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GEO documents show Mousa was ordered to “administrative segregation” on June 29, and later found guilty of “engaging in or inciting a group demonstration” and “conduct that disrupts or interferes with the security and orderly operation of the facility.” Both charges are labeled as \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/detention-standards/2011/2-2.pdf\">high offenses\u003c/a> by the ICE standards Mesa Verde must follow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The facility denied Mousa’s appeal on July 15.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Mohamed Mousa, ICE detainee\"]‘They want to break me.

Yet, the agency’s guidelines fail to spell out any limits for the administrative kind, which leads to abuses, according to immigrant advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE did not immediately respond to KQED’s requests for the number of detainees currently held in solitary confinement. Between 2013 and 2019, the agency recorded nearly 13,800 segregation placements nationwide that lasted longer than 14 consecutive days or involved vulnerable detainees, such as those with mental illness, identifying as gay or on a hunger strike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency’s watchdog found the figure could be higher, because ICE ignores the full extent of segregation use at its more than 200 detention centers around the country. Facilities owned or operated by for-profit companies such as GEO hold most immigrant detainees in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2021-10/OIG-22-01-Oct21.pdf\">lack of comprehensive isolation data hinders\u003c/a> the agency’s “ability to ensure compliance with policy, and prevent and detect potential misuse of segregation,” according to a report by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General published last fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, inspectors found no evidence that detention centers considered any alternatives to isolating detainees in 72% of the incidents they studied.

Their walls are covered in photos and postcards of their global adventures. \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 75-year-old Gene Ampon agreed to an interview in August 2021. The Seattle home he’s shared with his life partner for four decades sits atop peaceful Queen Anne Hill. Wind chimes that Ampon collected cover the porch.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He suffered a stroke in 2019, and at the time of the interview he had just completed a round of chemotherapy for cancer in his liver and lungs. His hope in openly sharing his experience, he said, was that “moving forward,” the country and world would have more “enlightened attitudes toward dealing with gay people, especially young gay people.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon was born in the Bay Area in 1946 to a Filipino father and Irish mother, who soon split up. Money was tight and chaos in his home life gave him some freedom to roam. At age 13, he was spending school days at an arcade near San Francisco’s Tenderloin and its thriving gay scene. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I used to like pinball machines,” he said. “And there were always older men who would say, ‘Oh you need another quarter?’ I said sure, why not?”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Soon, Ampon was lying about where he was spending the night in order to hang out with other gay teens – and hook up with men for a place to sleep and a free meal. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“We did actually a lot of cuddling,” he said, “and there was some sex.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He’d been picked up for truancy before, so Ampon was on the radar of local police. One day, while he was having lunch at a diner, officers strolled in to question him. He landed in juvenile hall and “it snowballed from there.” He said youth corrections officials told him they didn't want his “homosexuality” to corrupt other kids, so they moved him through a series of youth facilities for nearly five months.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Men in Ampon’s era were \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066379-criminallawsusedagainstlgbtq\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">often criminalized for being gay\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. They could be charged with “lewd and lascivious behavior” for simply holding hands, kissing in public or dancing in a bar. Undercover cops who posed as potential sex partners entrapped men in public parks and restrooms. Charges included solicitation, loitering, vagrancy and indecent exposure. Oral and anal copulation carried more serious consequences. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Ampon was a juvenile, so all he had to do to get locked up was skip school and hang around the gay scene. Because back then, a judge could find a teen to be a \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066368-psychopathicdelinquent\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic delinquent”\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> simply for violating social norms.

Gene Ampon’s life partner, Roger Anderson, obtained a rare copy of this 1965 supplement. It moved all types of so-called 'sexual deviance,' homosexuality included, to the catagory of 'sociopathic personality disturbance,' from the former 'psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.' \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if you were gay in 1962, when Ampon got to the hospital, you’d be diagnosed with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066383-1965dsm\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.” \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The teens at Atascadero were in the minority, housed with grown men, some of whom were seriously mentally ill and had committed violent crimes.

The longest stint stemmed from “a puppy love” crush. When hospital guards noticed the friendship, they shipped his crush off to prison, and Ampon to a sweltering windowless concrete cell, with nothing but a thin sleeping mat. He spent a month there, lost in thought, composing poems about spiders and doom.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beyond punishment and pills, \"treatment\" consisted of pressuring Ampon to not be gay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I remember this one doctor who was talking about homosexuality,” Ampon recalled with a mischievous smile. “And he said, 'Well, there is a normal homosexual period between 8 and 12 and then beyond that it’s abnormal.' So I piped up and said, ‘Is that a.m. or p.m.?’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">His humor was a testament to his resilience even then. But Ampon wanted out, and he’d end up trying to play the game, telling his treatment team he wanted to “explore” heterosexual experiences “They thought that was good,” he said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When Gene Ampon turned 18, in mid-1964, he was released. His parents had hardly visited. He was on his own, with no follow-up support. As it happens, he got out just in time. Because “treatment” at Atascadero was about to become even more sadistic. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://mindsitenews.org/2022/06/24/when-gayness-was-a-crime-and-a-mental-illness-one-mans-journey-from-involuntary-confinement-to-pride/\">Read a full-length version of this story at MindSite News\u003c/a>, and learn about a few key people who stepped in to fight on behalf of gay men while they were confined at Atascadero, and as they were released to the community.\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Lee Romney is an independent journalist with a specialty in mental health and criminal justice.

Wind chimes that Ampon collected cover the porch.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He suffered a stroke in 2019, and at the time of the interview he had just completed a round of chemotherapy for cancer in his liver and lungs.

One day, while he was having lunch at a diner, officers strolled in to question him. He landed in juvenile hall and “it snowballed from there.” He said youth corrections officials told him they didn't want his “homosexuality” to corrupt other kids, so they moved him through a series of youth facilities for nearly five months.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Men in Ampon’s era were \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066379-criminallawsusedagainstlgbtq\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">often criminalized for being gay\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. They could be charged with “lewd and lascivious behavior” for simply holding hands, kissing in public or dancing in a bar. Undercover cops who posed as potential sex partners entrapped men in public parks and restrooms. Charges included solicitation, loitering, vagrancy and indecent exposure. Oral and anal copulation carried more serious consequences. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Ampon was a juvenile, so all he had to do to get locked up was skip school and hang around the gay scene.

Gene Ampon’s life partner, Roger Anderson, obtained a rare copy of this 1965 supplement. It moved all types of so-called 'sexual deviance,' homosexuality included, to the catagory of 'sociopathic personality disturbance,' from the former 'psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.' \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if you were gay in 1962, when Ampon got to the hospital, you’d be diagnosed with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066383-1965dsm\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.” \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The teens at Atascadero were in the minority, housed with grown men, some of whom were seriously mentally ill and had committed violent crimes. On Ampon’s second day, a group of adult patients sexually assaulted him. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It was in the utility room, one of the few rooms that didn’t really have a door,” he said. “It’s where the buckets and mops were.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">To reclaim some power, he converted future assaults into transactions – agreeing to sex in exchange for cigarettes and food. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I guess I was a growing boy and I always wanted more,” he said, “kind of like Oliver Twist.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Atascadero would get excoriated in the radical gay press in the early 1970s for a host of inhumane treatments.

He was given ECT in the late 1960s to “cure” his attraction to men. Then the doctor taunted him, “I bet you won’t do that again.” Ampon knew about these treatments, and wrote about them in his prose poem. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He saw the electric shock box wheeling down the hall\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">stopping at someone else’s room; the guards taunting\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">him with the threat, “Your turn next.”\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A new terror shot through his thoughts as the overhead light \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">flickered while each jolt burned into some unfortunate brain. \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon’s age spared him the electroshock. Instead, for more than two years, he got a morning dose of phenobarbital – a barbiturate used to control seizures or, for very short periods, to control anxiety. Psychiatric medication was relatively new but widely used, often with the sole goal of sedating patients. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon was also punished with solitary confinement, he said. The longest stint stemmed from “a puppy love” crush. When hospital guards noticed the friendship, they shipped his crush off to prison, and Ampon to a sweltering windowless concrete cell, with nothing but a thin sleeping mat. He spent a month there, lost in thought, composing poems about spiders and doom.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beyond punishment and pills, \"treatment\" consisted of pressuring Ampon to not be gay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I remember this one doctor who was talking about homosexuality,” Ampon recalled with a mischievous smile. “And he said, 'Well, there is a normal homosexual period between 8 and 12 and then beyond that it’s abnormal.' So I piped up and said, ‘Is that a.m. or p.m.?’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">His humor was a testament to his resilience even then. But Ampon wanted out, and he’d end up trying to play the game, telling his treatment team he wanted to “explore” heterosexual experiences “They thought that was good,” he said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When Gene Ampon turned 18, in mid-1964, he was released. His parents had hardly visited. He was on his own, with no follow-up support. As it happens, he got out just in time.

Officials at the Mesa Verde ICE Processing Center locked him up for about 23 hours per day, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was depressed. I felt helpless,” said Edmondson, who has lived in this country for nearly 20 years and has three U.S.-born sons. “They served me food through a hole in the door. They made me feel like I’m a terrorist or a murderer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson’s experience is echoed by other ICE detainees, whose reports to advocates and in court records suggest widespread use of solitary confinement as COVID-19 proliferated in immigration detention centers around the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Based on evidence we’ve gathered, this is the practice that they are allowing their contractors to use,” said Elizabeth Jordan, an attorney with the Civil Rights Education and Enforcement Center in Denver, who represents plaintiffs in \u003ca href=\"https://creeclaw.org/fraihat-v-immigration-and-customs-enforcement/\">Fraihat v.

Instead, they took him to an intake cell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The windowless room, used by staff to interview new detainees, was very small, with a toilet but no bed, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was horrible. I didn’t want to be there,” Edmondson said. “No fresh air. I’ve never been in a place like that for so long in my life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guards brought in a TV and DVD-player for Edmondson to watch movies on. But he was forced to sleep on a mat on the floor and had no access to the commissary, which he depended on to comply with his plant-based, Rastafarian diet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People must not be kept in such a hold room for more than 12 hours, according to ICE’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/detention-standards/2011/2-6.pdf\">standards\u003c/a>. But Edmondson said officials left him there for seven days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, guards confined him in a Restricted Housing Unit (known as a RHU) for two more weeks, according to ICE reports to a district court in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson said he only had his Bible to read. Sometimes, he stood by a small window on his cell’s metal door to watch a TV in the hall outside, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration officials did not explain why he could not live in a dorm with others who had also tested negative, according to Edmondson and his attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The GEO Group, which owns and operates Mesa Verde, referred questions to ICE. An ICE spokesman declined to comment on Edmondson’s case.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>More ICE Detainees Isolated During Pandemic\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Since June, ICE facilities have been isolating detainees with coronavirus symptoms and placing new arrivals in quarantine for 14 days, according to the agency’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/coronavirus\">guidance on COVID-19\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But detainees are usually housed in dorms; most detention centers only have a few units where people can be isolated for disciplinary or other reasons, such as medical isolation, according to advocates and researchers who have visited ICE facilities in California and other states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mesa Verde, where Edmondson was detained, has at least one medical isolation room and at least one intake cell, and three RHUs that have been generally full since August, when ICE began reporting on the facility’s COVID-19 outbreak to a district court.

She added that ICE’s “aggressive inspections program” includes targeted site visits and independent third-party compliance reviews, and that the agency has made improvements to detention conditions based on recommendations by the DHS Office of the Inspector General.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE “is fully committed to the health and safety of those in our care,” said Stacey Daniels, who directs public affairs at the agency. “However, it is clear this one-sided review of our facilities was done to tarnish our agency’s reputation, as opposed to actually reviewing the care detainees receive while in our custody.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE refers to the practice of isolating a detainee from the general population as “segregation,” and allows it for disciplinary or other reasons, including for a vulnerable detainee’s own protection. Facility administrators are required to notify ICE field office directors when detainees are segregated for 14 days or longer, according to the agency’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/detention-standards/2011/2-12.pdf\">standards\u003c/a>.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Caitlin Patler, UC Davis sociology professor\"]‘It’s a really, really punitive experience, regardless of the reason for someone’s placement into solitary confinement.’[/pullquote]Between 2013 to 2017, ICE facilities nationwide logged more than 5,300 cases of segregation that lasted two weeks or more, according to Caitlin Patler, an assistant professor of sociology at UC Davis who analyzed the incident reports. One person was isolated for more than two years, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a really, really punitive experience, regardless of the reason for someone’s placement into solitary confinement,” Patler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Patler was troubled to find that people with mental illness were overrepresented in ICE segregation cases. And immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean — with majority Black populations — experienced a quarter of all the incidents, though they comprised only 4% of the detainee population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There might be some really problematic racialized practices happening within detention facilities where a situation involving a Black detained person results in solitary confinement much more frequently than we would expect based on their portion of the detained population,” said Patler, who co-authored a \u003ca href=\"https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/zdy7f/\">study\u003c/a> on the issue soon to be published in the peer-reviewed journal Punishment and Society.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An ICE spokesman declined to comment on Patler’s findings, saying they haven’t been published yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11841227\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11841227\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1294\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/10/RS22944_GettyImages-450371255-qut-1-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A guard escorts an immigrant detainee from his ‘segregation cell’ back into the general population at the Adelanto Detention Center. \u003ccite>(John Moore/Getty images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>ICE is currently jailing about \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-management\">20,000 people\u003c/a> across the country, compared to about 38,000 immigrants who were in custody in late March.

He maintains his arrest stemmed from a racially-motivated traffic stop in a county where only about 1% of the population is Black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The criminal court had granted him bail, but he and his family could not afford to pay it, he said, and he remained behind bars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole thing was racial profiling,” said Edmondson, who was visiting a friend in California when he was arrested. “I was innocent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they arrested Edmondson in Nov. 2018, sheriff’s deputies did not find a firearm in the vehicle he was in, and the charges were filed based on a dubious eyewitness identification, according to court documents submitted by San Francisco Public Defender’s Office. The office sued, along with the ACLU and other legal aid nonprofits, to force ICE to release vulnerable detainees from Mesa Verde during the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson was told that if he lost his criminal trial, he faced up to 12 years of incarceration, but if he took the plea deal, he would be let out in four months, court records show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because of the racial demographics of the county, and pervasive racial bias among the likely juror pool, his attorney advised that his chances of winning at trial were slim,” according to the request for Edmond’s release from ICE detention filed by Genna Beier, a San Francisco deputy public defender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 26, as Edmondson was released from the Nevada County Jail, ICE officials arrested him and detained him at Mesa Verde.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson said he didn’t understand at the time that pleading guilty to the felony would lead to deportation proceedings and losing his green card, which has allowed him to lawfully work and live in the U.S. for nearly 20 years. But ICE disputes that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He signed an agreement acknowledging that he understood the nature of the crimes and allegations and the consequences of his plea,” said agency officials opposing his release, adding that Edmondson had two prior misdemeanor offenses related to marijuana possession and a DUI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Sept. 23, U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria ordered ICE to release Edmondson, who has asthma, along with more than 140 other detainees at Mesa Verde, where COVID-19 has infected nearly 60 detainees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chhabria’s release orders weigh each person’s health risk in detention against the likelihood that he or she will endanger the community or will fail to show up for immigration court proceedings if released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson is quarantining at a hotel in Bakersfield until Oct. 7, following the judge’s orders. He then plans to go home to Georgia, where two of his three sons live. The youngest is just 6, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel great, I feel freedom,” he said. “I want to see my kids.

He maintains his arrest stemmed from a racially-motivated traffic stop in a county where only about 1% of the population is Black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The criminal court had granted him bail, but he and his family could not afford to pay it, he said, and he remained behind bars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole thing was racial profiling,” said Edmondson, who was visiting a friend in California when he was arrested. “I was innocent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they arrested Edmondson in Nov. 2018, sheriff’s deputies did not find a firearm in the vehicle he was in, and the charges were filed based on a dubious eyewitness identification, according to court documents submitted by San Francisco Public Defender’s Office. The office sued, along with the ACLU and other legal aid nonprofits, to force ICE to release vulnerable detainees from Mesa Verde during the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson was told that if he lost his criminal trial, he faced up to 12 years of incarceration, but if he took the plea deal, he would be let out in four months, court records show.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because of the racial demographics of the county, and pervasive racial bias among the likely juror pool, his attorney advised that his chances of winning at trial were slim,” according to the request for Edmond’s release from ICE detention filed by Genna Beier, a San Francisco deputy public defender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 26, as Edmondson was released from the Nevada County Jail, ICE officials arrested him and detained him at Mesa Verde.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson said he didn’t understand at the time that pleading guilty to the felony would lead to deportation proceedings and losing his green card, which has allowed him to lawfully work and live in the U.S. for nearly 20 years. But ICE disputes that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He signed an agreement acknowledging that he understood the nature of the crimes and allegations and the consequences of his plea,” said agency officials opposing his release, adding that Edmondson had two prior misdemeanor offenses related to marijuana possession and a DUI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Sept. 23, U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria ordered ICE to release Edmondson, who has asthma, along with more than 140 other detainees at Mesa Verde, where COVID-19 has infected nearly 60 detainees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chhabria’s release orders weigh each person’s health risk in detention against the likelihood that he or she will endanger the community or will fail to show up for immigration court proceedings if released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson is quarantining at a hotel in Bakersfield until Oct. 7, following the judge’s orders. He then plans to go home to Georgia, where two of his three sons live. The youngest is just 6, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel great, I feel freedom,” he said. “I want to see my kids. Missed them a lot.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Edmondson said he hopes that talking about his experience of isolation at Mesa Verde will make ICE detention more humane for others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s not right the way they treated me,” he said. “I think it’s very important for people to hear my story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The jailers' usual response: Send an “extraction team” of corrections officers to burst into the cell and drag him out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not in Contra Costa County, one of three in the state using a kinder, gentler approach in response to inmate lawsuits, a policy change that experts say could be a national model for reducing the use of isolation cells.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the inmate was asked: \"What if we gave you a couple extra cookies and another sandwich? Would you move?” recalled Don Specter, the nonprofit Prison Law Office director who negotiated the new policies. “He said yes. ... They were like, ‘Wow.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than a quarter of U.S. states and numerous smaller jurisdictions are looking for ways to reduce the use of solitary confinement, according to the Vera Institute of Justice, which encourages alternatives to a practice behavioral experts say is dehumanizing and can worsen mental illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new policies in California came after Specter’s firm sued seven of California’s 58 counties, alleging that conditions had grown inhumane as jails absorbed inmates who previously would have served their sentences in state prisons. The state in 2011 began sending less serious offenders to local jails for years at a time to ease crowding in state penitentiaries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some jurisdictions nationwide are banning isolation for young offenders, pregnant women or those with mental health diagnoses. The California counties’ approach of generally limiting it to those who engage in continued violent behavior has dramatically reduced the number of inmates in isolation and the length of time they stay there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Contra Costa started 2019 with about 100 people in solitary, most jailsfor more than a year. It had just three in isolation cells by December, after officials began using the new approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Rick Raemisch, executive director of the Colorado Department of Corrections\"]'Think of yourself being in a cell the size of a parking space for 23 hours a day.

Among other things, it encourages the use of low-cost incentives to reward good behavior, like the opportunity to listen to the radio, watch a movie or get an extra snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sacramento County has cut its isolated population roughly in half, to about 60 inmates, said Lt. Alex McCamy: “It’s a limited time frame and a limited group, but the initial impression is positive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rick Raemisch, who restricted the use of solitary confinement when he headed Colorado’s prison system, said the violent, tense, dirty conditions in Santa Clara County's jail improved markedly with the new policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Think of yourself being in a cell the size of a parking space for 23 hours a day,” said Raemisch, who consulted with county officials. “At a minimum you’re going to get angry, and when you get angry you’re going to fight back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inmates nationwide are most often segregated for nonviolent “nuisance infractions” like smoking, cursing, disobeying orders or having unauthorized items from the commissary, said the Vera Institute’s Sara Sullivan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County once locked a woman in solitary confinement for 2 1/2 years for talking back to correctional officers or yelling and banging on her cell door with other detainees, according to Specter's lawsuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California counties’ new policy of restricting its use to continued violent behavior could be seen as a national pilot program, Sullivan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"solitary-confinement\" label=\"Related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Jersey's Middlesex County Adult Correction Center has lowered the number of isolated inmates and the time they spend there, she said, but with a different approach that lets inmates out of their cells more frequently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Hampden County Correctional Center in Massachusetts increased its use of alternative sanctions and positive reinforcement. And Cook County, Illinois, no longer keeps troublesome inmates in isolation, allowing them to regularly spend time with about a half-dozen other inmates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s been a decades-long effort to reform solitary, especially in prisons. But what we haven’t seen is a paired reform effort for jails,” said Amy Fettig, director of the American Civil Liberty Union’s Stop Solitary campaign. “In Santa Clara what we’re seeing is an attempt to reform the whole process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long-term isolation can be so debilitating, Fettig said, that she’s had clients cut themselves “just to feel something because they’ve become numb.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County once had 400 inmates in solitary confinement. Specter’s client in Santa Clara County had been in solitary confinement for nearly five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By last fall there were about 40 inmates confined to isolation cells for an average of about two months, and just 26 by December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith said she and many deputies were initially skeptical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has surprised me, and I think it’s very, very good for our inmates,” she said. “I think what we’re doing is correct, and I think it’s working.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said she remains concerned that assaults on staff are up. She said the increase is logical, however, since inmates locked in their cells virtually around the clock have little opportunity to assault anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt. Todd Kendrick, president of the county's correctional officers association, attributed the increase to other less restrictive jail policies as well as the easing of solitary confinement. He and Smith both called for increased staffing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said the county fell into a pattern of protectively isolating inmates to separate purported gang members and those charged with murder and to safeguard jailhouse informants or sex offenders for fear they would be harmed. Officials sought to improve after several major incidents, including deaths in custody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like most jails, three-quarters or more of inmates had not been convicted of a crime and yet spent months and sometimes years awaiting trial in isolation. Under the new policy, “it’s really our philosophy to use that when it’s absolutely necessary, when there’s extraordinary risk,” Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jail employees work to get inmates out of segregation as quickly as possible, often using a system in which inmates agree, in writing, not to assault each other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One inmate refused for 1 1/2 years to leave solitary because he had testified against other gang members, recalled Capt. Thomas Duran, who coordinates the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he saw other longtime inmates leaving segregation and eventually agreed to try it. Rather than put him immediately in with other inmates, deputies paired him with a single inmate — then two other inmates, then four and so on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He spent more and more time out of his solitary cell until he was fully back into the general jail population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re trying to set the inmates up not to fail,” Duran said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

And Cook County, Illinois, no longer keeps troublesome inmates in isolation, allowing them to regularly spend time with about a half-dozen other inmates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s been a decades-long effort to reform solitary, especially in prisons. But what we haven’t seen is a paired reform effort for jails,” said Amy Fettig, director of the American Civil Liberty Union’s Stop Solitary campaign. “In Santa Clara what we’re seeing is an attempt to reform the whole process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long-term isolation can be so debilitating, Fettig said, that she’s had clients cut themselves “just to feel something because they’ve become numb.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County once had 400 inmates in solitary confinement. Specter’s client in Santa Clara County had been in solitary confinement for nearly five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By last fall there were about 40 inmates confined to isolation cells for an average of about two months, and just 26 by December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith said she and many deputies were initially skeptical.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It has surprised me, and I think it’s very, very good for our inmates,” she said. “I think what we’re doing is correct, and I think it’s working.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said she remains concerned that assaults on staff are up. She said the increase is logical, however, since inmates locked in their cells virtually around the clock have little opportunity to assault anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt. Todd Kendrick, president of the county's correctional officers association, attributed the increase to other less restrictive jail policies as well as the easing of solitary confinement. He and Smith both called for increased staffing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Smith said the county fell into a pattern of protectively isolating inmates to separate purported gang members and those charged with murder and to safeguard jailhouse informants or sex offenders for fear they would be harmed. Officials sought to improve after several major incidents, including deaths in custody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like most jails, three-quarters or more of inmates had not been convicted of a crime and yet spent months and sometimes years awaiting trial in isolation. Under the new policy, “it’s really our philosophy to use that when it’s absolutely necessary, when there’s extraordinary risk,” Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jail employees work to get inmates out of segregation as quickly as possible, often using a system in which inmates agree, in writing, not to assault each other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One inmate refused for 1 1/2 years to leave solitary because he had testified against other gang members, recalled Capt. Thomas Duran, who coordinates the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he saw other longtime inmates leaving segregation and eventually agreed to try it. Rather than put him immediately in with other inmates, deputies paired him with a single inmate — then two other inmates, then four and so on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He spent more and more time out of his solitary cell until he was fully back into the general jail population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
