The Lucasville Uprising was a rebellion against oppressive and racist policies at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility (SOCF) in Lucasville, OH. Nine inmates and one guard died during the uprising in April of 1993. Today, many people are serving time or condemned to death by the state of Ohio in relation to the uprising. We demand amnesty for all of these inmates. The conditions at SOCF were (and still are) intolerable and unconscionable.

ManCI guards targetting Abdush-Shahid Faruq
You can call ManCI and complain. We have heard many complaints about ManCI's unruly staff and corrupt RIB practices. Anyone familiar with Sean Swain's recent troubles with ManCI staff won't be surprised by Faruq's story. Let the warden know that people outside are paying attention to his staff's misdeeds.
Please call (419) 525-4455 ask to speak to Warden Terry Tibbals or Deputy Warden Scott Basquin.
You could also call Director Gary Mohr's office at 614-752-1150 and request better oversight of the Warden and staff at ManCI.
Details from Faruq, after the jump.
