And you know what unless the People of the Commonwealth say enough is enough. Enough with the selective criminalization, enough with the selective outrage, enough with re-characterizations and saying up is down and down is up and WE ARE ALL HELD TO THE SAME DEFINITIONS, this roller coaster existence of the exploitation of "harm" and "injustice" will persist. I BEGIN: During the Administration of Governor Glen Youngkin and his Republican cabalistic stooges, much noise was made about the Virginia Parole Board rarely paroling eligible Virginia Prisoners. Even to the extent that the Chairperson of the Board, Patricia West felt comfortable enough to publicly state (and I paraphrase) that she'd never vote to parole anyone imprisoned for a violent offense. I started this work with, "enough with the selective outrage, enough with re-characterizations".Because as much as it is historically and intractably convenient to highlight a type of deviance and criminality, the more destructively insidious and warned of "enemies from within" of the Social Contract are the nose thumbing of the likes of a Patricia West and the collective lawlessness of the Virginia Parole Board under Youngkin and egged on by the inherent lawlessness and corruption of reactionaries and in this case, Virginia Republicans, whose nose thumbing compromises and betrays that weary trust and faith held by "the people" in the aspired commonweal of the Social Contract. In an ideology-less Social Contract, (and contrary to the propaganda canned for us, nothing about Virginias' or for that matter, the National construct is ideological or driven by it, not to get into it, but a Social Contract structured on Ideology, is comprehensively Revolutionary, questioning and critiquing each and every aspect and circumstance of its existence. Imagine doing that in a deluded construct whose introspection is incapable of shaking mythological and theological presumptions and is endeared to that, sirenic Sisyphean-quixote wheel reinvention which is where Virginia and the Nation preen), the bastion of the People are the whimsy of "trust and faith" along with the enormous baggage of it's contradictions and antagonisms. The behavior of the Glen Youngkin appointed and Patricia West led Virginia Parole Board, for the four years of their Republican lawlessness painted all of this for us in the bright red strokes of nose thumbing, daring the Virginia People to say enough is enough. You cannot on the one hand claim authority from a law then with a wink and nod blatantly violate it. Because Parole and its process in the Virginia imprisonment scheme, isn't that of, should the confinement and imprisonment continue but why it shouldn't. Nor is it an ad hoc opportunity for a re-litigation, of an adjudication process that has already satisfied its Virginia law provisions or better put, a second guessing of a realized and maturely constituted Virginia Jury. A process that contains within itself Parole. Parole whose sole existence in the imprisonment scheme is that of "releasing the prisoner from confinement". This is the law, those Youngkinites on the Virginia Parole Board, casually and systematically violated, by failing to parole eligible Virginia prisoners, even as they kept on collecting their Virginia tax payer provided six figure pay checks. Which for those aggregate four years of tenure, added to an approximate $4 Million scam. This isn't complicated and obfuscating to grasp. Virginia law is clear the Parole Board's duty and legal obligation is to review the provision of parole, not preside over its denial. The Virginia tax payer wasn't paying Patricia West and co.to second guess the law and its will.

VIRGINIA'S IMPRISONMENT SCHEME WOULD RATHER WE FOCUS ON INDIVIDUAL VIOLATIONS, THAT OLD TWO STEP, WELL WE SHOULD BY NOW KNOW BETTER By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes on

There isn't a violation and harm inflicted on the Prisoner and specifically for purposes of this work, THE VIRGINIA PRISONER, that isn't reflective of what is happening in the larger and "free" Society, with the only distinction that on the Prisoner it reaches and achieves maximum intention and revelation. First of all I need to dispense with this confusion, that only serves, that "self-check" function of how the socio-person is "controlled", meaning our grasp and understanding of conditions, circumstances and situations which in turn determines our responses and reactions. Which is the theological narrative and present it's nakedness, which simply is, the contradiction of "Property" and its MATERIAL formulant, has always, when in that unanalyzed and uncritiqued state been that proverbial "fly in the ointment", imposing its confusion, which in turn has been symbiotically exploited by "our", human conditional short sightedness, as justification, or proof, grounding a narrative, that serves a truly monstrous Liege Lord, which our ancients in a brief moment of honesty, gave us (and I paraphrase), we've encountered the enemy and it's us. This work isn't going down that rabbit hole, I had to however establish it as preface, because our work of holding the Virginia Prison Official demands that before we engage the antagonism presented by the Commonwealth's organized-violence in its prison-official form, we recognize and come to terms with that, we've encountered the enemy and its us, because without our complicity in all its myriad expressions, there isn't anything for the violating narrative to hide behind. This is not the first time I'm stressing the fact, that Virginia's imprisonment scheme would rather we only speak to its countless individual misdeeds. Because it accomplishes a couple of sub-functions:(1) individualizing misdeeds, legitimizes its self asserted mission and (2) we unconsciously moderate our analysis and critique, regardless of intensity and extremity of language. Because as soon as we affirm the misdeed by complaining of its occurrence, at the expense of focusing on the fact that whatever logic presented by "Virginia's" imprisonment scheme is fundamentally fraudulent, we've participated in that Brer Rabbit syndrome of ignoring that the entire construct is covered in sticky tar. The issue isn't whether imprisonment should be aspect of Virginia's Justice Infrastructure, because, Virginia's Social Contract, hasn't ever democratically presented it for debate. Instead, its antebellum, chattel slavery origin was simply redressed and reclothed in other suppositionary garbs post the Commonwealth's defeat in its traitorous Civil War misadventure and foisted from the supremacist presumptions. So its one thing to speak of a Due Process of peers, when the qualifications of "peers", is just another presumptive contradiction that is yet, to be resolved. So when we speak of the Accountability-Function of governance we are not doing it within the biases of Virginia's aspirations, but upon that legitimacy, which the Great Schizophrenic In Chief Thomas Jefferson grounded whatever claim the rebellious and separatist North American Colonies had as logic, from The Britain of King George, with this in the 1776 declaration of Independence," To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:", this Jeffersonian imploration of a "candid world", attest to an accountability-function of governance existing in itself.

The work is an analysis of Richard Wright's seminal work NATIVE SON and from my point of view all of theses sorts of effort behave as if we are fundamentally clueless as to the nature of the American Justice Infrastructure and the "why".

Conservatism per virtue of its insularity is systemically corrupt, while Liberalism in its efforts at resolving those inevitabilities of the business of human existence, acknowledges the inherent corruption of approximations.

"[T]HE CONSTITUTION DOES NOT MANDATE COMFORTABLE PRISONS"-----THE MAJORITY IN RHODES v. CHAPMAN 452 U.S.337 (1981) By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes on

The title to this work is quoted from a "declaration" by the Supreme Court of The United States in 1981.From a law suit filed by Prisoners held at the SOUTHERN OHIO CORRECTIONAL FACILITY, a Maximum Security Prison at Lucasville, Ohio, claiming that the double celling of the tiny cell space, meaning having two prisoners share a small space of 63 square feet, violated the Eighth Amendment to The Constitution, prohibition against CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT. My focus with this work isn't to critique that 1981 declaration of the Supreme Court, that "the Constitution does not mandate comfortable prisons", but instead to use it to show that as much as we say that the Social Contract or in this case Virginia Society is based on the RULE OF LAW and it doesn't get anymore lawful than the CONSTITUTION. The reality is we are not. The "we are not" aspect isn't that mere and patently simple characterization of the predisposition to violate. Instead it reveals and exposes, that there is an inherent corrupt value in structure. Whether at the conceptual and idea stage to its realization, its negation or that which will undermine it as corruption is there with it. Secondly, (and this affirms and proves the existence of the corrupt value). LAW is an aspirational frame work from which we leverage and critique that which will enable our affirmation of the fundamental and primary BUSINESS OF HUMAN EXISTENCE. In other words, law as Constituted Aspiration, is guide or theory, notwithstanding a salute to BLACK LETTER LAW, if the existence of a status quo and privilege has thought us anything, it has imparted that, that eponymous "norm", is just that, contextually idealistic. I BEGIN: The Constitution of The United States, affirms and prohibits certain concepts. Which we generally refer to as "Rights. "Then it plays the sophist gimmick of other concepts or Rights are left to the People. Notwithstanding the fact that the Constitution is the Supreme Law. Or whatever conceptual framework emanating from it, is defacto fiat, still and despite that fact it squares the circle with The People are sole possessors of whatever the a priori Constitution in its omnipotent Supremacy, is paradoxically silent on. When the Supreme Court declared that the Constitution doesn't mandate comfortable prisons, in 1981 as response to Ohio Prisoner's assertion that subjecting them to imprisonment in an insufferably tiny space, what those Jurist or Judges conveniently didn't say is, nor does the Constitution say Prisoners should be imprisoned under those conditions either. The point is this, ever since the Supreme Court made that declaration, those words have become Law, without any elected legislator saying aye or nay to it. Those words have been used in approximately 1,708 law suits in the 4th Circuit, which the Commonwealth of Virginia is under its jurisdiction. Those words just as all our words comprehensively have a bias, a bias which in the context of a Social Contract, must be unambiguously stated, so it can defend itself. Because as Judge MARSHALL stated in dissent to what his colleagues had done in the RHODES case: "With the rising crime rates of recent years, there has been an alarming tendency towards a simplistic penological philosophy that if we lock the prison doors and throw away the keys, our streets will somehow be safe". People, Judge Thurgood Marshall, had this insight in 1981.Forty-Five years ago ! and here we are in 2026 with Virginia Republicans, who are bereft and bankrupt of what it even means to confront their very own structural corrupt values, regurgitating, the same tired noises against Governor Spanberger, who at least is confronting it.

Law as I've indicated is the Constituted Aspirations of The People. Meaning it exist for the People. Created by the People. Emerging as a contemporaneous symbiosis of Who Are the People with what segment of the People and it's percentage are commanding the status quo presumptive benefit of privilege. This presumptive benefit of privilege, is the materialization of that inherent structural corrupt-value in its anticipatory existence, for the accountability-function of governance, which in principle is energized by the People. However, when the People for any number of reasons and factors are, incapable, unwilling and unable to energize that accountability-function of governance, then, the existing vacuum is filled with and by that presumptive benefit of privilege or in other words, an ad hoc stamp on virtually the very intention of the Constituted Aspirations of Law. Yes its easy then to simply describe the consequence or its result as its crass violation, which it still is. But what is actually occurring (and it is revealing that it appears initially in issues with the Justice Infrastructure and the subsequent Imprisonment Schemes) is an attack, at times consciously and deliberate, but for the most past unconsciously on the expression-medium or idea of the constitution of aspirations, then lastly its purpose or objective. As I initially stated my intention with this work, isn't to indulge in the low hanging fruit of critiquing the ruling of the Supreme Court in RHODES v. CHAPMAN 452 U.S 337, but to show how whether intentionally or not, declarations or speculations by those embodying Governmental functions, which Judges are, negate the very basis of their relative authority as it exist as the fundamental undergirding PROCESS, along with the unforeseen consequence inexorability. What this points to isn't the fact that for example the RHODES majority, mocked the very Constitution they have its authority of defending by interpreting actions in its name are actually such, with their "The Constitution does not mandate comfortable prisons". But what it instead does is (and here is its relevancy to our work of reforming the imprisonment scheme in Virginia), it reminds and reinforces the demand for actual political involvement and activity by The People. Because yes robbed Jurist can render their "declarations", usurping the ayes and nays of elected legislators, but the People with their Speech are the Supreme and Final arbiters of what is law and whether its formulation is representative of their Constituted Aspirations. What this means for the Virginia Family, Ally and Friend of the Virginia Prisoner, is simple and clear cut. A more deliberate, exact, purposeful and organized focus and involvement in Virginia politics. Involvement means developing, supporting and maintaining a level off "SPEECH", that is capable of recognizing that which is specious. When we are being manipulated and fed gimminks and gambits, instead of the accountability-function of governance. Those Ohio Prisoners in 1981, behaved even more responsibly than the relatively non-imprisoned average Ohio citizen, with their simple claim, that double-celling two men in a cramped and tiny cell was a violation of the eighth amendment to the Constitution's prohibition against Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Instead, what we have come to learn is, in the past forty five years since the Supreme Court ignominiously and insidiously reframed and re-characterized, the Ohio Prisoners cruel and unusual punishment allegation and its insinuation of STATE CREATED DANGER into the snide and snarky, "comfortable prisons", thousands of Prisoners who were not sent to Prison to die, whether its prisoner on prisoner violence, or contracting any number of diseases due to the nature of the confinement, have. We see the same thing in Virginia and its time our Speech indicted it.

YES WE'LL QUIBBLE OVER GOVERNOR ABIGAIL SPANBERGER'S RESPONSES TO PRISON ISSUES WHILE RECOGNIZING IT'S HISTORIC NATURE. BUT WHAT WE SHOULDN'T DO IS REMAIN SILENT WHEN SHE IS ATTACKED BY FORCES THAT HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ON THE WRONG SIDE OF ACCOUNTABILITY By William Thorpe

Recently Nick Minock of WJLA 7NEWS attacked Spanberger for actions of Virginia's Parole Board. As I indicated in my initial response to his comments, his motive wasn't that of improving the Parole process with analysis of its reform. Instead his work was about critiquing the Board to break Virginia law, by not granting eligible prisoners Parole, which as a reminder exist to be granted. In other words analysis of Parole isn't from the vantage, why should it be granted, but why shouldn't it. All and everything that is wrong, unjust and compromising in Virginia's Social Contract didn't appear, just because a Democrat, is Virginia's Executive, which Governor Abigail Spanberger is. But rather all that is wrong, unjust and compromising exist in Virginia due to the continuum of the World View contained in the attacks against Spanberger, for the type of Speech her presence, existence and motive-force presents and represents. To what extent Governor Abigail Spanberger is able to course correct the Accountability-Function of governance, is something we can quibble over. But that doesn't mean that her responses as it currently stands to issues of Virginia's imprisonment scheme haven't been historic and we should acknowledge such. In the context that we understand that the work of Prison Reform in Virginia is primarily that of organizing-explanations and exposure of the narrative that has maintained the extra-judicial nature of the imprisonment scheme. In so many words, the work of reform is reclaiming correct word-definitions, pushing back against deliberate machinations, like Nick Minock critiquing the Parole Board to break the law, exposing euphemisms the dehumanizers of the Virginia prisoner deploy in acting out their extra-judicial impulses and above-the-lawism, challenging collaborations between the media and the reactionaries of Virginia's organized-violence, in their quest to propagandize their misdeeds and or sow dis and misinformation. In earlier times, this work required its very own infrastructure. However, considering the current quantitative and qualitative existing mechanisms of exposing the fraudulent narratives of the obstructionist forces, opposed to holding the Virginia prison accountable available to the FAMILY, ALLY and FRIEND. Works by the Nick Minock of the World shouldn't go unchallenged. For one we cannot expect Governor Abigail Spanberger in her official capacity to engage Nick Minock and his insidiousness. For one it doesn't allow those Virginians whose habit is to block out political activity from those elected, to pay attention. An attention they'd have when the debate is held by the averageness of a family member of a Virginia prisoner, with the likes of a Nick Minock. Or the attention that will focus itself if the debate is between the family member of the imprisoned with a survivor-victim of an alleged act a Virginian is convicted of and imprisoned for. Whatever the contours of the debate what it will not be about, is blame and finger pointing, because both survivor-victim and family of the imprisoned are victims. Both are harmed. As such there can be a level of honesty of expressions of how to approach and see Prison Reform in Virginia. Furthermore by speaking out against the attackers of Governor Abigail Spanberger, it allows her to express resolve upon the recognition that there is appeal and support for her efforts. Historically activity family of the imprisoned have engaged in, is complaints to officials, while being silent to the destructive work of a Nick Minock.So SPEAK UP.
