THE CORRUPTION OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS IS A PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA PROBLEM By William Thorpe

I BEGIN: Besides the work of the Virginia Prison Official being that of a narrative and what I mean, is this, in order to do what the Virginia prison official does, which is maintain Virginia's Imprisonment scheme, it requires a world view which considering the fact no one person has all the answers to anything more or less, everything, not even theology and its interpretive presumptions as justification. Then the Virginia prison official is as all things, Human Condition, hypothesizing then supposing it in narrative. The thing though is in all other aspect of Life and The Social Contract, no one assumes certitude, but Prison Officials exploit such certitude as professional privilege.  

Yes the history and practice of imprisonment in Virginia exposes itself as having nothing to do with criminality, punishment or justice, which in itself isn't excuse. However and because those who benefit from its variegated and multi purpose, have in effect perfected and mastered the minting of buzzwords as lattice and frame for the perverted construction of a world that is in effect an idea of "purpose" for their existence. So for example we have a redefinition of for starters crime or acts that actually harm and are existential to Virginia's Social Contract, based on their specific and personal interests, which in actuality are at odds with the interest of the common good of The People of Virginia.

Yes, I've described the debacle with The Virginia Department of Corrections as a People of Virginia problem, but I'm not isolating it as the only issue that is Virginia people specific and oriented. Because everything Virginia is a Virginia people problem including the perpetrators and those they subjugate and victimize. My intent isn't to lecture, proclaim or instruct. What I do is present a facet of perspective that some of us might not have or realize, which due to its lack and omission those who perpetrate actual and destructive harm not just on the individual Virginian but the collective of the Commonwealth, not as "they" (to mean the exploiters) would have us realize and understand it, but as it is.

Who amongst us thinks, for example, that Chadwick Dotson, Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections has life figured? Yet he has the presumption from the people of Virginia that he has, because you The People of Virginia gave him dictatorial powers and authority under Virginia Code 53.1-10 to do as he sees fit in treating Virginians entrusted to him as prisoners, implying that he has all the answers, as it concerns human behavior and the idea of Justice and we know that such is folly and unrealistic.
