I’ve heard that Supermax out there ain’t no joke.
23 hours in an 8x10 concrete cell with virtually no visitors.
Most peoples minds would check out after a couple of years.
Yeah, I’ve watched a lot of prison shows on YouTube.
That’s how I came to the “LWOP worse than death penalty” conclusion.
Horrible, absolutely horrible.
There’s a guy who murdered a cop in my home town back in the 1980s. He was 27 at the time. It’s in NY, so no death penalty.
They put him in ad-seg in Elmira, which is a dump compared to ADX. He hasn’t seen the sky since except for once when they brought him to Syracuse for a court hearing about something. That’s it.
Not know about the specific SuperMax he’ll be in, but I can say from experience it wouldn’t be fun. Years ago I got to tour a new SuperMax prison. Window to outside was maybe 2” wide and a tiny window in the door. They were fed thru a slot and got one hour outside in a concrete “moat” with a chain link a d razor wire roof.
The Supermax in Colorado is a Federal prison. This guy will be sent to a state prison.
He won’t be sent to any supermax at all, unless he really starts acting up in prison.
