Currently we are considering placing all Maximum and Medium security male facilities on restricted movement during the September 9thweekend. Subject: Work Stoppage Good afternoon, I felt compelled to apprise you of some information that may be beneficial to you and the fusion center. You may already be aware. If so, please disregard. Over the past couple of weeks our Facility mailroom staff have been receiving and reviewing correspondence from a guy named Randall Paul Mayhugh, of Terre Haute, IN. Mr. Mayhugh poses as a Union member for a group that call themselves Industrial Workers of the world (IWW). Our mailroom staff have confiscated nearly 100 of the incoming flyers (attached), all to different inmates located at the Wabash Valley Correctional Facility. As you can see within this particular flyer is a massive promotion advocating the offender work stoppage on September 9, 2016. One such offender receiving this correspondence is Leonard McQuay # 874304. Leonard McQuay is a very influential inmate, who killed a correctional officer many years ago. McQuay is also a confirmed member of the Vice Lords Security Threat Group. Mr. Mayhugh recently submitted a visitation application to visit Leonard McQuay. The application was approved. Gleaned intelligence suggests that Mr. Mayhugh will be attempting to visit offender Mayhugh either on August 19, 2016 or August 21, 2016. We are in the process of disallowing this visit, due to Mr. Mayhugh's direct involvement supporting the work stoppage. A quick review of OIS confirms that Mayhugh has not visited any offender within the IDOC previously. He does J-Pay with Leonard McQuay and a Kim Baldwin # 151763 at the Rockville prison. We are in process of reviewing additional J-Pay messages. The bulk of the messages pertain to McQuay requesting assistance from Mayhugh to post things on Facebook and a "go fund me page". We have not found anything about the September 9thwork stoppage. Currently, we have not confirmed that the offenders located at this facility are planning a work stoppage. Additionally, we are not certain what Mayhugh and McQuay's agenda consists of. However, since we have confirmation that Mayhugh is promoting the work stoppage we plan to place a visitation restriction on him and revoke his J-Pay access. With that being said, should we allow the visit and attempt to record their meeting since we aren't really sure what is going on with the work stoppage, state-wide? We have not interviewed McQuay, as he has no idea that we are on to their antics. We will await further instruction from your office on how to proceed. 63 Please advise.

  • Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents
    CALIFORNIA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY Riverside, California Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities A Dissertation Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Public Administration George Richard Austin, Jr. Division of Online and Professional Studies Department of Public Administration April 2019 Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities Copyright © 2019 by George Richard Austin, Jr. ii ABSTRACT Factors Leading to Civil Unrest in the Wake of Police Lethal Use of Force Incidents: A Tale of Two Cities by George Richard Austin, Jr. Since August 9, 2014, the day Officer Darren Wilson shot and killed Michael Brown in the small city of Ferguson, Missouri, large-scale protests after police-involved lethal use of force incidents have become much more prevalent. While there is much academic and public debate on why civil unrest occurs after these unfortunate incidents, there is very little scholarly literature that explores the structure of civil unrest events or literature that attempts to explain why and how peaceful protests turn violent. This dissertation, through exploratory content analysis of extensive after-action reports, provides insight into two instances of civil unrest in the wake of officer-involved lethal use of force incidents: the Minneapolis, Minnesota, civil unrest in the aftermath of the November 15, 2015 shooting of Jamar Clark and the Charlotte, North Carolina, civil unrest in the wake of the September 16, 2016, shooting of Keith Lamont Scott. The study examines the phenomenon of civil unrest from the theoretical frameworks of representative bureaucracy and rational crime theory and utilizes a case study comparison and content analysis research design.

Civil Action No. ______________ City of Minneapolis, Minneapolis Chief of Police JURY TRIAL DEMANDED Medaria Arradondo in his individual and official capacity; Minneapolis Police Lieutenant Robert Kroll, in his individual and official capacity; COMPLAINT Minnesota Department of Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington, in his individual and official capacity; Minnesota State Patrol Colonel Matthew Langer, in his individual and official capacity; and John Does 1-2, in their individual and official capacities, Defendants. For their Complaint, Plaintiffs state and allege as follows: INTRODUCTION The right to assemble is fundamental, as is the right to speak out against injustice. These rights are enshrined in our Constitution. Ideas and movements that changed the course of our history came to the forefront of the American consciousness through assembly and protest. Law enforcement too often has been on the wrong side of history, attempting to suppress the right of the people to assemble. This freedom cannot be suppressed and it must be protected at all costs. Minnesota is no exception. Historically, law enforcement in Minneapolis specifically, and Minnesota more generally, have attempted to suppress the right of its citizens to assemble peacefully. Recently, they have been and are actively suppressing this right by exercising CASE 0:20-cv-01645 Document 1 Filed 07/28/20 Page 2 of 32 unnecessary and excessive force against protesters who gathered to express their outrage at the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department.

  • How “Making a Murderer” Went Wrong
    Save paper and follow @newyorker on Twitter A Critic at Large JANUARY 25, 2016 ISSUE Dead Certainty How “Making a Murderer” goes wrong. BY KATHRYN SCHULZ A private investigative project, bound by no rules of procedure, is answerable only to ratings and the ethics of its makers. ILLUSTRATION BY SIMON PRADES rgosy began in 1882 as a magazine for children and ceased publication ninety-six years later as Asoft-core porn for men, but for ten years in between it was the home of a true-crime column by Erle Stanley Gardner, the man who gave the world Perry Mason. In eighty-two novels, six films, and nearly three hundred television episodes, Mason, a criminal-defense lawyer, took on seemingly guilty clients and proved their innocence. In the magazine, Gardner, who had practiced law before turning to writing, attempted to do something similar—except that there his “clients” were real people, already convicted and behind bars. All of them met the same criteria: they were impoverished, they insisted that they were blameless, they were serving life sentences for serious crimes, and they had exhausted their legal options. Gardner called his column “The Court of Last Resort.” To help investigate his cases, Gardner assembled a committee of crime experts, including a private detective, a handwriting analyst, a former prison warden, and a homicide specialist with degrees in both medicine and law. They examined dozens of cases between September of 1948 and October of 1958, ranging from an African-American sentenced to die for killing a Virginia police officer after a car chase—even though he didn’t know how to drive—to a nine-fingered convict serving time for the strangling death of a victim whose neck bore ten finger marks.

  • Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey Faqs
    Frequently Asked Questions about the Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey Cases and the Netflix Documentary, Making a Murderer What role did the Wisconsin Innocence Project (WIP) play in producing the film? None, other than agreeing to a single interview in late 2005 or early 2006 of WIP co- director Keith Findley. The independent filmmakers asked for no other involvement than that. What role did WIP play in exonerating Steven Avery in the 1985 attempted rape and attempted murder case, for which he served 18 years before DNA proved his innocence? WIP represented Avery in that case and obtained the DNA testing that proved his innocence and identified convicted sex offender Gregory Allen as the true perpetrator. For a description of that case from the perspective of Penny Beerntsen, the victim of that crime, see “Penny Beerntsen, the Rape Victim in ‘Making A Murderer,’ Speaks Out,” https://www.themarshallproject.org/2016/01/05/penny-beernsten-the-rape-victim-in- making-a-murderer-speaks-out#.wem3FlkE8. Did WIP take down Steven Avery’s case from its website after the Halbach murder, and if so, why? After Teresa Halbach’s murder, WIP initially kept Steven Avery’s case on its website because there is no question that he was absolutely innocent of the 1985 crime, we wanted to present an honest accounting of the facts, and we wanted to respect the presumption of innocence to which Avery was entitled in the Halbach murder. Over time, the website became the focus for angry complaints that it was adding insult to the Halbach family’s very tragic loss, and the site was generating considerable anger directed toward Avery.
