NEW: NYS Focus reports on “special watch” torture cells in New York State prisons. These cells are extremely dangerous and the way NYSDOCCS uses them flagrantly violates the HALT Solitary Law.

It’s long past time to fully implement the HALT Law and end this torture.

Say his name.

Julian Pagan.

We joined @JailsAction @haltsolitary_ny and @legalaidnyc at the vigil of 29 year old Julian Pagan who died in city custody in Bronx courthouse. No one should die in arraignments. Our hearts go out to family members, loved ones, and his legal team.

“DOCCS ignored reports like these for decades before they tortured and murdered Robert Brooks,” said HALT’s Anisah Sabur. “Rather than more reports, we need urgent action to expand pathways to release from these racist & deadly prisons, and an immediate end to all abuses inside.”

Beautiful day in the Lower East Side talking with community members about justice and public safety.

32 people signed postcards to their local Assembly Member urging passage of the Elder Parole and Fair & Timely Parole bills. Several asked to join our work.

Antoine Galloway was sexually assaulted by a guard at NY’s infamous Clinton Prison. When he filed a grievance, other guards beat him with a deadly weapon & locked him in solitary. A decade on, he’s home working at a shelter, but still has severe pain. The guards were never fired.

“This year, our movement made enormous gains that must be celebrated, yet we cannot overlook the anguish of the 76 families grieving loved ones who died in prison or the tens of thousands at risk of meeting the same fate."
