One Response to “State Arrests Two Atmore Residents On Contraband Charges”
I am a lobbyist for Alabama Corrections Officers and know that there is a certain percentage of officers and staff that are complicit with all types of contraband smuggled in and out of Alabama prisons weekly. To that point when the Covid restrictions shut down of all visitors and non-essential access the contraband was just as bad as any other time since I began lobbying against the corruption inside the ADOC. The Alabama Solution on HBO shows a thorough investigation and proof that bullying, retribution, murder, contraband and political misconduct and abuse of power was and is still practiced by camps in the ADOC.
