I am sorry to hit you with this on the heels of my resignation, but Warden Pagan was unsure how a request from a former Inmate might come across and this is something we both feel strongly about.
In an effort to afford Inmates spending time in Zero a sense of humanity, we were hoping that one of the cells might be transformed into a shower dedicated to Zero. This would allow Inmates to clean up, rather than be forced to sit in filth, which can be damaging to the psyche. It would also remove any temptation to try to escort an Inmate up to the Inmates' showers, which would risk a vulnerability to attack or escape attempts.
Truly we are simply trying to maintain the integrity of Zero, but also taking steps to keep it from becoming a breeding ground for despair and worse behavior.
