On 1/13/26 Julia Broberg of WRIC ABC News, confirmed the news, that had already been shared by an alert and attentive Virginian on VIRGINIA PRISONS ACCOUNTABILITY COMMITTEE, FACE BOOK PAGE, that the in over his head Chadwick Dotson, Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections had finally got his good riddance, in the story titled VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS DIRECTOR CHADWICK DOTSON TO LEAVE AS SPANBERGER ADMINISTRATION TAKES OFFICE. Of course to the People of Virginia this isn't only great, but exceptional news and to the Virginia Prisoner, its okay so let's see what tone incoming Governor Abigail Spanberger sets with holding the Virginia Prison Official accountable, because the self-serving status quo, shamelessly and incorrigibly evidenced in Dotson's flailing and gasping comments of what ?, his, "I haven't come to bury Caesar" moment or is it another example of his seedy tenure, a Swan song, cannot continue. No one is irreproachable, no one and in particular those given the privilege of authority as the Virginia prison official. I leave much more comprehensive and incisive response to Dotson's in summation of his tenure drivel, to Virginian Family, Friends of the Virginia Prisoner and most importantly victims of the adjudicated acts of the Virginia prisoner, because its a travesty of everything that claims recognition of a victim's experienced harm, when the response then is to in turn break the same law and process that is intended to convey an aspiration of justiciability as the Virginia prison official does in the treatment of the Virginia Prisoner in their professional capacity. What I want to respond a bit to is Julia Broberg of WRIC ABC news and its in this context. Look Ms. Broberg, contrary to the koolAid propaganda that you and your colleagues are accustomed to. The Virginia Prisoner isn't a specific type of human being and socio-person existing to be objectified by the hypocrisies and Steve Urkel-like oops did I do that misadventures of the sadistic presumptions of the Virginia prison official and for too long Virginia's main stream media has taken what is by any standard an unjustifiable stance, that is of disservice to the People of Virginia in the communication of Virginia prison official pronouncements. In your 1/13/26 WRIC-ABC NEWS on the departure of Chadwick Dotson, you did what you're clearly used to which is swallowing hook and sinker stuff that comes out of the Virginia Prison Official mouth, as a matter of fact, the Bible and other religious works are not given the sort of presumptions as Virginia Department of Corrections speech. You repeated Chadwick Dotson's assertions without any qualification that everything he said must be taken with a grain of salt and, yes you'd still have been within your idealistic notions of whatever passes for journalism these days. Simply throwing out an anaemic and quite frankly anorexic statement that an investigation into Red Onion, that prisoners set themselves on fire, then lumping in that a prison guard was killed is in itself the sort of editorializing you and your colleagues have slyly practiced when dismissing a counter status quo narrative, yet claiming you don't editorialize. Chadwick Dotson tenure as Director was rife and full of nothing less than the Virginia prison official pining for pre-Civil War Virginia and all you had to do is interrogate it, instead of giving us quoted Dotson pablum, indicative of the Virginia prison official's mind set of his/her expected professionalism.

SOMETHING IS OFF WITH OUR PERCEPTION AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE RELATIONSHIP HELD WITH OUR POLITICIANS by William Thorpe

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

I'm a prisoner under Virginia's jurisdiction as such, my relative perception of the Virginia Politician is primarily under the rubric of the necessary and fundamental issue of prison reform and the Virginia prison officials' accountability-function. I BEGIN : There seems to be a disconnect with the perception, understanding and the anticipated response to or in other words there is this expectation, that in a lot of ways borders on the paternalistic, of the perception and understanding of the relationship held with the Virginia politician as if there is this confusion of the nature and exact terms of the relationship between the People and the Politician they voted for. For example, there is this murmuring that Governor-Elect Abigail Spanberger's position on Virginia's criminal justice infrastructure along with the inexorable and inevitable reform isn't clearly known and properly understood. Now publicly this is factual. However, the question and its speculation reveals something that is too damn fundamental to this simple and basic existence of being human, that society as a specific and particular entity has nothing to do with. In other words when an issue is developed and organized with that maturity of its critical mass, it dictates, because it is the will of the people. So the issue is then straight forward, the question of Virginia's Justice Infrastructure and reform of its Prison System, isn't dependent on the supposed benevolence or "morality" of a politician, but it is the work, energy and effort of its development as a critical mass value by the people within the demands of Virginia's Social Contract, because the savagery and barbarism of the Virginia prison officials professional behavior claims to have its legitimacy from the presumption that it is the desired intent and will of the People of Virginia. So if governmental activity claims its existence, as being supported by the people and if it is understood that the activity notwithstanding its supposed popular support is at odds and contrary to the constituted aspirations of the Social Contract, which in this case, is the Commonwealth of Virginia and the much needed reform of its decrepit Prison System, then the energies of the People should go towards reminding fellow Virginians, why dehumanization of the Virginia Prisoner as prison policy is simply incompatible with Virginia's civilization. Surrendering on this stance and the work of communicating the reminder to fellow Virginian, upon the expectation that elected politicians will instinctively remember their person hood and shake off that crystalized hypocrisy and its antagonisms that defined their electoral success, is quite frankly naiveté. What a Politician presents is relative responsiveness and the level of critical mass that will bring on their cognizance of that proverbial which way are the political winds blowing or in plain speak, to what extent is it politically advantageous or a liability. We cannot simply expect the status quo of which the politician is a foot soldier to recognize that the existence of its impunity as the mechanism of its business of pursuing its self-interest, its survival, as it pays lip service to "equality under law" as a sedative of control (which has nothing to do with "Justice") while concealing that its real existence is already in enmity with the people which is its two-faced nature, as it unmasks its true self, personified in the corrupted labor, but not absolved, of the Virginia Prison Official.

OUR WRITINGS AND SPEECH ON THE VIRGINIA PRISON SYSTEM AND CONDITION SERVES A COUPLE OF PURPOSES By William Thorpe

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

If it was just about a narrative of the savagery and barbarism of the Virginia Prison Official's professional behavior, then besides accounts by the harmed Virginia Prisoner to Family, Friends and formal recounts, chronicled in Virginia law books would sure as hell convey and accomplish it. But writings and speech on the Virginia Prison system and condition by Virginia prisoners serves a more primary and practical function, which is, a connecting insight into the fact that, the Virginia prison system is a fundamental anticipation and paradoxical fact of Virginia society as historically structured by its Social Contract. A illustration of this, one of the allies of the Virginia prisoner was recently participating in a rally, protesting the ICE murder of Ms. Renee Good of Minneapolis and they had the presence of mind to recognize the sameness of the dynamics and issues, one having a National character, the State murder of a Mother of 3 kids with Virginia Prison reform and holding the Virginia Prison official accountable for their professional behavior. What insight from the Virginia prisoner organically presents is that tying up of the loose ends of the ever present contradictions and antagonisms revelatory of the various conniving intersections of terms of Virginia's Social Contract, that despite being experienced as a daily dialectic of life and existence in Virginia society, the people can, understandably be excused for the lack of attention, being ignorant of and not noticing the obvious connections, for one due to the deliberate and purposeful formulations of onerous terms of Virginia's Social Contract, that is specifically imposed to cause that lack of attention and inhibit and distort the necessary clarity of insight, requisite or required for the people to attain and achieve that mature and maximal realization as Social Person. The space then which insight from the Virginia prisoner works to fill, is one that even as the Virginia Prison official dehumanizes the Virginia prisoner as philosophy, the dehumanization spills over or we should reverse phrase it and say, that the spill over is a symbiotic sloshing from society to the prison and from the prison to society, as the dehumanization also begins from and as basis of Virginia society. Not to get caught and twisted up in the "chicken or egg-ness" of it, the fact is dehumanization of the human person, isn't ever conditional, because as soon as human life and its person is reduced to otherness and less than, which is the attitude of the Virginia Prison official and their Virginia Republican political ally towards what is Virginia's justice imposition and its prisoner subject, all human life and person are subsequently dehumanized as fact of the emergence of that above-the-lawism and its impunity. What insight from the Virginia prisoner accomplishes is it provides, equips and enables that correct scrutiny of anything coming out of the mouths of the Virginia Prison official and their allies, be it Religion, Institutional Establishment of Virginia's Social Contract on its terms as nothing more than crass supposititious that only pursue one purpose, which is impeding that maximal and mature realization of the Virginia Social Person, demanding the accountability-function in all aspects and terms of Virginia's Social Contract.

SO WHAT IS VIRGINIA PRISON REFORM ACTIVISM NOW THAT A NEW DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR IS COMING IN By William Thorpe

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

Let me begin by saying, that there are those who profess and claim to want prison reform in Virginia in all aspects, then they turn right around and undermine its efforts. Whether the sabotage is conscious or not is besides the point, because the results are the same. Undermining the efforts and work of wrangling a system to respect its own formulations, which is reform, has myriad expressions and variegated forms and again it makes no difference if it is conscious and diabolical or due to the consequences of ignorance, the results are the same regardless of immediacy, because impunity and its contradictions confronts only one objective, its resolve and excise. The work of being anti the mess of Virginia's Social Contract, as it is currently exposed in the hapless circumstance of its Prison System, is as historic as the existence of Virginia, firstly as an entity of commercial investment and speculation, then the subsequent exploitation. At each turn the dynamic of reform or to distill it to its irreducible function, the realization that, recognizing that terms and relations of the Social Contract is a human person with dictatorial agency objectified as terms of approximate value exchange, has as a ever present Caduceus, Siamese twin like been there. To what extent this recognition of the human person has been perfected isn't a reflection of its value, hell how many Virginians died during the Civil War in its opposition, yet here we are in the Virginia of the 21st Century, with gleaming tombstones marking the then and now of Lee's surrender on April 9,1865 at Appomattox to Grant and this, see this case: VA. STATE CONF. NAACP v. CNTY.SCH.BD.OF SHENANDOAH CNTY., 2025 U.S.DIST.LEXIS 11726 exists as a damn continuum of one of the worst slaughter of human beings ever under a banner that some humans were less, which is the exact and identical philosophy pursued by the Virginia Department of Corrections in its practice of dehumanizing the Virginia prisoner and maintained in its incorrigible opposition to reform, a practical mockery of those lives lost compelling and dictating Lee's surrender, a mockery that is nothing less than a dehumanization which isn't irony in its manifestation against the Virginia prisoner, but defiant speech of incorrigibility. I've developed the point of what this moment of Governor Abigail Spanberger's Administration presents, with firstly, prison reform in Virginia isn't apart from or besides that confrontation with certain fundamental facts that either educate and enlighten or engulf us in that bliss of ignorance which regardless of which denies that dehumanizing narrative of the Virginia Department of Corrections in its pursuit of its self-interest. Secondly, Dehumanization isn't a unilateral existence, it requires and is a reflection of a relationship The issue isn't complicity, tacit cooperation or compulsion but how is it opposed. The state, condition and circumstance of the Virginia prisoner isn't simply and only confined to the concertina and fenced enclosures of Virginia's prisons, but it extends or I should accurately and correctly put it as a symbiotic existence with all that is Virginia. What I'm saying is, let's take for example the neglect and deprivation of medical care to the prisoner, despite the fact that the prisoner is directly harmed by the deprivation and neglect, what do you think is happening to the medical and health care professional who is now corrupted due to their violation of their Hippocratic Oath and doesn't the ensuing corruption taint and makes toxic the healthcare professional as a social person.

WE DON'T KNOW HOW CONSCIENTIOUS GOVERNOR ABIGAIL SPANBERGER WILL BE ON ACCOUNTABILITY-FUNCTION, BUT THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS SIMPLY CANNOT CONTINUE BEING ABOVE LAW By William Thorpe

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

Virginia Prisoners have been shipped out to other State Prison Systems, away from Family all because the current Executive-Directorate of the Virginia Department of Corrections could do so. Of course they'll assert all sorts of squaring the circle reasons and logic, but if every circumstance were interrogated on its merits, the People of Virginia will recognize that the only logic is the dictatorship of they, the Virginia Prison Official can so they did. We currently have members on Virginia's Parole Board who expressly have stated, publicly, unequivocally that they would never agree to the parole of certain prisoners, which, would not only be a disqualifier and grounds for their removal off the Board and termination of employment, but cause for legal action of defrauding the People of The Commonwealth of Virginia and failing to administer fairly the laws of Virginia, were we in a honest Social Contract environment, but we are not. We have a culture and tradition maintained by the Virginia Prison Official that perceives the Virginia Prisoner and in extension the social environment of origin as "at odds with", as such is less than, therefore warranting treatment of the enemy combatant and if this isn't explicit it is tacitly accepted as objective of Virginia's Social Contract narrative. We see this in the manner, Virginia's corporate media treats and presents all and any exposé of misdeeds of the Virginia Prison official, either by minimizing or being dismissive. We see concurrently and in congruence, the brazen compromise and at the expense of, whatever honesty was imbued in that Social Contract pursuit of making whole "harm" suffered by "the people", due to the selectivity of what is accepted and understood within the accountability-function parameters as "harm", with the systemic, down played and ignored, while the particular and specific, hyped and sensationalized, despite the fact both the systemic and specific result in "harm". So we see The Commonwealth of Virginia appropriating more treasure and the corruption of labor to dehumanize the people as function of its Justice Infrastructure, including the prison system, than it does to fund their education, health care and job training. Whether Governor Abigail Spanberger can actually rouse Virginia's accountability-function from its Rip Van Winkle slumber is besides the point but what is required of her is what tone will she set? Will she in no uncertain terms convey it to the Virginia Prison Official that the Virginia Prisoner is not an experiment, or a public safety word salad mission statement, or any of those euphemistic buzz cliches deployed and exploited as professional behavior and its sham philosophy as cover and camouflage for that one and only impunity and its above-the-lawism culture and tradition habit of the Virginia Prison official. Yes, Virginia already has the necessary mechanics of accountability-function, what is lacking is its application and practice of "equality under law".
