ABOUT JAILHOUSE LAWYERS SPEAK: JLS's core committee and decision making processes originate from within the prisons. We are not an external advocacy group with imprisoned members, but rather an organization whose very foundation & direction come from prisoners themselves






This month, men in VA State Prison self-immolated. This isn't isolated. Prisoners in EVERY STATE, incl. SC, where one person died [while laughing pigs watched], have resorted to self 🔥 due to desperately trying to be moved. The most common you hear of is self-harm cutting.



** Self-harm cutting is where the person cuts on themselves. Sometimes, self cutting results in unaliving because pigs and nurses just let them bleed out (medical neglect) or refuse to respond with speed because they have become desensitized after numerous episodes
