The Rev. Gregory Clarke, pastor of New Hope Baptist Church, checked in to a federal penitentiary in Atlanta around 8 a.m. this morning to begin serving a 21-month sentence for tax fraud.Clarke walked into prison wearing a Crimson Tide jacket and baseball cap. He made the journey on a chartered bus, accompanied by about 50 church members. Other church members and supporters followed in vehicles.A federal jury convicted Clarke in July 2007 on charges he filed false income tax returns for 2000, 2001 and 2002. At trial prosecutors said Clarke underreported $110,000 in earned income and schemes to deceive the government about the money.Clarke has said he was singled out because of his friendship with former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, who is serving a prison sentence after he was convicted on seven corruption-related counts by a federal jury in Montgomery in 2006.Here is a video taken before the bus departed for Atlanta. Clarke tells reporters and supporters that he is ready to report and h
Prison Recidivism Drops:
By Juan McCartney -
Nassau, Bahamas:
The rate of recidivism has dropped, according to a statistical report on Her Majesty’s Prison, which Minister of National Security Tommy Turnquest tabled in the House of Assembly Wednesday night.
The report showed that the rate of recidivism declined from 32 percent in 2006 to 22.7 percent in 2007.
The recidivism rate is calculated based on persons returning to prison who had served a previous sentence.
"We do not want our young people who have been released from prison to go back again," Minister Turnquest said.
He was contributing to a debate on crime, which arose after the Opposition moved for the appointment of a select committee on crime.
The minister said the prison is now offering basic academic and skills training to inmates so that they have an advantage when reintegrating into society after they are released from prison.
Of the young men in prison, Minister Turnquest said, "our prison system will do its

The price, he says, was $1,100 in bribes to officers. He also says the main topic of conversation among Taliban inmates was how payoffs were being arranged for their release.More...
¿Qué será de Prison Break ahora que sabemos que la 3ª temporada terminará, salvo sorpresa, el próximo 18 de Febrero? Quedan menos de 2 semanas para que llega ese día, sólo 2 capítulos de Prison Break por emitir y demasiadas explicaciones que dar, no ya sólo de esta temporada sino de otras cuestiones que nos han surgido en estos 3 años.¿Quién está detrás de la Compañía?, ¿quién es Padman (alias el calvo misterioso que se comunica mediante tarjetitas y que maneja el cotarro desde la sombra)?, ¿qué es aquel laboratorio militar que nos mostraron en el Season Finale de la 2ª temporada y del que poco más sabemos?, ¿está vivo Paul Kellerman?, ¿y Sara?, ¿quién es realmente James Whistler y qué relación tiene con Susan y la Compañía?, ¿qué será de Michael sin Sara?, ¿acabarán juntos Lincoln y Sofia?…Muchísimas preguntas a las que dar explicación y otras tantas que me habré dejado y que seguro que se os vienen a la cabeza y salvo novedades sólo 80 minut
By Jane Sutton GUANTANAMO BAY U.S. NAVAL BASE, Cuba, (Reuters) - The U.S. military has lost a year's worth of records describing the Guantanamo interrogation and confinement of Osama bin Laden's driver, a prosecutor said at the Yemeni captive's war court hearing on Thursday. Lawyers for the driver, Salim Ahmed Hamdan, asked for the records to support their argument that prolonged isolation and harassment at the Guantanamo prison have mentally impaired him and compromised his ability to aid in his defense on war crimes charges. "All known records have been produced with the exception of the 2002 Gitmo records," one of the prosecutors, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Timothy Stone, told the court. "They can't find it." He said the military was still looking for the records kept at the remote U.S. naval base in southeast Cuba, which he referred to by its nickname. President George W. Bush authorized the Guantanamo court to prosecute suspected al Qaeda members on grounds that t

The guy steals a 50 cent package of doughnuts, because he had two previous felony theft convictions, this charge automatically became a felony charge under California law. He was busted for not paying for a small package of donuts, and now he could spend the rest of his life in prison. Friday in court, Robert Fassbender’s attorney, Michael Webb, tried to get the charges dropped before having to go to trial. But the District Attorney’s Office plans to prosecute the case to the hilt, even if it means life in prison for Fassbender under California’s controversial three strikes law. [...] But Kern County District Attorney Ed Jagels said Fassbender has earned his third strike, with two previous felonies dating back to 1977 and 1999 for robbery. My brother and I had argued about this yesterday. He says it's a waste of taxpayer money to send this guy to prison for 25 to life over a 50 cent package of doughnuts. I say good riddance, the law is the law and he broke the law. If he would n
No es la primera vez que se oyen rumores sobre un posible regreso del agente Paul Kellerman a Prison Break. En su momento se especulò que seguia vivo y en la Revista Prison Break la puerta fuè abierta en un reportaje a Paul Adelstein el actor que le diera vida .Prison Break Magazine: ¿Notaste mucha diferencia entre las 2 primera temporadas de Prison Break?Paul Adelstein: Prison Break fue rara en ese aspecto durante la 1ª temporada, me sentí como si hiciese una serie distinta. Quiero decir, durante la 1ª temporada no trabajé con Dominic, Wentworth o cualquier otro actor que interpretase a un preso.PBM: Entonces, ¿te alegraste por mezclarte con estos personajes en la 2ª temporada?PA: Sí, me encanta mezclarme.PBM: ¿Alguna vez te sorprendió Kellerman, como cuando disparó a Mahone?PA: Oh, sí, eso fue un giro genial.

Todo esto surge por unas palabras de LJ en el capítulo 3×09: “Boxed in” en las que aseguraba haber oído pero no visto como Gretchen mataba a Sara, lo que deja una pequeña puerta abierta para la posibilidad de ver de nuevo a Sarah en Prison Break. “Sin muerto no hay delito” pensarán algunos. Si LJ no llegó a ver como asesinaban a Sara podría ser que no estuviese muerta y que sólo la estuviesen torturando. Pero de ser así, ¿De quien es entonces la cabeza que le envían a Lincoln?A simple vista la opción de que la Tancredi siga viva es poco probable, aunque sí creo que podría ser que los productores se estuviesen guardando un as en la manga, de modo que si algún día se llegase a rodar una 4ª temporada pudiesen tener una coartada para recuperar el personaje sin que a nadie le parezca demasiado raro.

Her school track and field records will also remain, Kirschner said."We did not feel there was any reason to take down something she had earned fairly while she was competing here," Kirschner said, adding "but what she did in the 2000 Olympics has been stricken,

The United States has quietly expanded the number of “enemy combatants” being held in judicial limbo at Bagram military base in Afghanistan.

Both prisons hold inmates incommunicado for weeks or months and [...]
You may have missed Bill Sloat’s Bellwether report on this great disparity, but it’s worth taking a look. According to the Justice Policy Institute, drug use among blacks and whites is about the same, but more blacks continue to wind up behind bars. The statistics point to clear racial injustice and bias in our legal system.
We were initially delighted when the phrase "Swedish prison" came across the news wires, given the vast storehouse of research material at our disposal— shop keeps who archive a Smithsonian-like collection of similarly themed films, as well as a steady inventory of single cigarettes so we could get a sense of what prison life is all about without all those communal shower come ons. Unfortunately, without a working knowledge of the Nordic language, and the Ikea warehouse not returning our harassing phone calls (not to mention being indisposed to Googling the phrase “Swedish prison” for fear of incurring some librarian's bifocaled stink-eye) we were unable to figure out exactly what kind of penal institution ‘Brinkebergsanstalten’ is, the mouthful of a prison at the center of the following story. So, with no English language reports specifying the gender of those incarcerated, we decided to eschew modern crime statistics and 200 years' worth of temple-probing criminology and as

You'd think that a prison bus would be fairly obviously a mode of transport which doesn't leave room for much in the way of personal choice. Foxy Brown seems to think otherwise; her refusal to board the prison bus for a court appearance means that now, she's going to get a second chance to take that bus. Only this time in chains.
Man faces prison for doughnut theft Mon Oct 8, 6:48 PM ET FARMINGTON, Mo. - It's a hefty price for a pastry: A man accused of stealing a 52-cent doughnut could face time in jail. Authorities said Scott A. Masters, 41, slipped the doughnut into his sweat shirt without paying, then pushed away a clerk who tried to stop him as he fled the store. The push is being treated as minor assault, which transforms a misdemeanor shoplifting charge to a strong-armed robbery with a potential prison term of five to 15 years. Because he has a criminal history, prosecutors say they could seek 30 years."Strong-arm robbery? Over a doughnut? That's impossible," Masters told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch from jail. He admitted that he took the pastry but denied touching the employee. "There's no way I would've pushed a woman over a doughnut."Farmington Police Chief Rick Baker said state law treats the shoplifting and assault as forcibly stealing property. The amount of force and value of the property doesn't

The prosecutor has filed 10 felonies against O.J., the newest being kidnapping. Once again he faces life in prison. Let's hope he gets nailed this time. Prosecutors filed formal charges Tuesday against O.J. Simpson, alleging the fallen football star committed 10 felonies, including kidnapping, in the armed robbery of sports memorabilia collectors in a casino-hotel room. Simpson was arrested Sunday after a collector reported a group of armed men charged into his hotel room and took several items Simpson claimed belonged to him. Simpson, 60, was booked on five felony counts, including suspicion of assault and robbery with a deadly weapon. District Attorney David Roger filed those charges and added five other felonies, including kidnapping and conspiracy to commit kidnapping, according to court documents. Simpson, accused along with three other men, faces the possibility of life in prison if convicted in the robbery at the Palace Station casino. He was being held without bail and w
