(SALEM, Ore.) - The story of an Oregon prison inmate who helped bust a state orchestrated act of Whistleblower retaliation has taken a turn for the worse. State officials say they will strip Terrence Kimble of his phone privileges and place him in the 'hole' again as he continues surviving a pattern of what clearly appears to be official misconduct and corruption. We have written about inmate Terrence Kimble several times. He helped a former prison guard who is also African-American, William Coleman, expose a mail tampering crime that involved a guard's racial scrawls on a People Magazine story about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's adoption of a black child. It took some effort, but Coleman was able to get the magazine out of the prison. It later would become part of his defense in a trial he never expected, for crimes he never committed. For exposing the situation with the magazine, Kimble was transferred to the Snake River Correctional Facility (SRCI) hundreds of miles across the state, in eastern Oregon, "Cowboy Country", as it is known in DOC speak. Kimble says he was sent there in retaliation, after reporting the racial incident at Oregon State Prison (OSP) in Salem. Read More. |
