Yes...this is very real. Only by the grace of God did I endure 152 days (5 months) of solitary confinement at the beginning of my 60 month sentence. Alone in my concrete & steel 7’x12’ cell. One 15 minute telephone call to family every month. Still broken.
#StopSolitary
Real talk folks - solitary confinement and the harm it causes affects people and their loved ones who are trying to be supportive even years after a person’s release. Combine that with collateral consequences of a conviction, and it’s an uphill climb.
