I have to say that the prison conditions posited here don't sound believable. Every inmate has access to the prison law library (if he doesn't have pro bono counsel outside) and can sue in Federal court for guard misdeeds, cruel or unusual conditions or lack of medical care. So I'm discounting all that whining.

However, let's assume it was all a good-hearted mistake--like the strafing and bombing of the Liberty by the Israelis in 1967. Life isn't fair when you cross certain lines. Sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you.

Pollard had some of the best legal talent around. One of his attorneys was Ted Olson.
