Has anyone else been put under 23-hour daily isolation given the same charges?
Not that I’m aware of.
Their position is that someone will try to assault Paul if he were in general, which may be true when you think about it. He shouldn’t be in jail at all, he should be home on bail. They’re saying he tried to bribe a witness while he was on bail or something so the judge revoked it and put him there.
The long and the short of it is they are putting the screws to PM and trying to squeeze him. This is wrong on so many levels and I never thought I would see the day when this can happen to an American by his own govt over politics.
It’s disgusting and it’s scary.
They claim his isolation is for his own protection (Protective Custody). They can use that as an excuse to keep him confined. He may have even requested segregation. If he did, it probably wouldn’t be released to the public.
He’s in isolation to assure his safety, not because of what he’s done. He should be thankful he’s not in the general population.
