Introduction to his Blog:
I
started Jon's Jail Journal back in 2004 to expose the conditions in the
maximum-security Madison Street jail, Phoenix, Arizona, run by the
infamous Sheriff Joe Arpaio. I wrote with a golf pencil sharpened on a
cement-block wall or metal door, and my aunt Ann, who visited every
weekend, smuggled my writing out of the jail. My parents in England
posted my writing to the Internet. The blog went on to attract
international media attention, and the Madison Street jail was shut down
a few years later.
Sheriff
Joe Arpaio is still in charge of the Maricopa County jail system and
its various facilities. His detractors call him the Angel of Death, not
just because of the abnormally high amount of murder and death in his
jails, but also because he actually promoted guards that the federal
court had found responsible for murdering inmates.
Where
I was housed, there were only two guards supervising hundreds of
inmates, so gangs like the Mexican Mafia had more control over the
inmates than the guards. I got used to the sound of heads getting
smashed against steel toilets and bodies getting thrown around. Here's a
video of an Aryan Brother murdering another inmate in the jail:
