Resignation of Warden Ronald Neal and Assistant Warden George Payne

Removal of Warden Ron Neal and Assistant Warden George Payne

Why is this important?

Warden Neal of Indiana State Prison Michigan City, IN. and Assistant Warden George Payne need to resign immediately due to the continued conditions at the State Prison. One person was burned alive April 7, 2017, because no one would roll the doors under Warden Neal's watch. Many other men suffered serious smoke inhalation due to being left in the cell house for quite sometime following the death of the inmate, and most have not received medical treatment. Since the fire retaliation began. Cameras are now placed in the attorneys booths, all mail including legal mail is copied and the offender gets the copy while the original is maintained. These men have no means of getting outside help, because their mail is scrutinized. The grievance policy has went to the wayside. No more touching upon arrival at the prison between loved one's, nor when leaving. Inmates are forced to wear jump suits backwards which is not only extremely uncomfortable, but dangerous. If an inmate were to be attacked get near an electrical spark there is no way to get out of this heavy garment. Drugs and contraband are easily obtained from the guards. This place was built in the mid 1800's and is not fit for human habitation. If a family member calls the prison regarding their loved one, the loved one is usually shaken down with orders from Assistant Warden George Payne to the guards to not leave until there is some sort of infraction found. Please take a stand and sign and support.
