A 35 year old "drug-bro" and #entrepreneur from #Kent SE #England got 15 years #prison for producing #MDMA / #ecstasy tablets and other #partydrugs and filming his own lab on a mobile phone to show off to prospective customers.
Quite a long stretch for a #guilty plea (he would have got even more had the #Court case gone to trial, probably 20 years +). He will likely serve 10 years inside.

Today in Labor History July 11, 1947: Eight black prisoners were killed in Brunswick, Georgia, during the Anguilla Prison Massacre, for refusing to work in a snake infested swamp without boots. The New York Times reported it as a failed prison escape. However, a handwritten note, by one of the survivors, describing what really happened, reached the NAACP. After refusing to dig ditches, barefoot, among poisonous snakes, they were driven back to camp where, the warden, drunk and angry, opened fire on them with a submachine gun. No one was ever convicted of their murder.
I doubt Trump knows this history. Hell, the idiot didn’t even know that English was the official language of Liberia. But this prison sounds eerily similar to Alligator Auschwitz, which is located in the Everglades and surrounded by alligator- and python-infested waters. The first group of prisoners arrived there on July 3, 2025 and have already reported human rights violations like limited access to water, insufficient food, and restrictions on the practice of their religion. Proponents claim the facility is designed to withstand Category 2 hurricanes. However, the facility was built in only eight days and is likely to contain flaws. Furthermore, with the number and severity of storms intensifying due to the Climate Crisis, and the prison’s location in the heart of hurricane country, it could easily experience storms that are much more severe than Category 2.
The cost of phoning family from prison can be extortionate. Last year, the FCC voted to cap the price at 6 cents per minute for phone calls, and 16 cents per minute for video calls, and this was supposed to kick in this year. On June 30, FCC chair Brendan Carr blocked the new rules from being enforced. Philip Vance Smith II, who is currently incarcerated at Neuse Correctional Facility in North Carolina, explains what that means to him, his family members and other people in prison, and takes a look at what happens to the money. "According to an investigation last year by the Prison Policy Initiative, 19 states use a portion of profits earned from these prison phone contracts for so-called Inmate Welfare Funds, which are supposed to be used for purchases that benefit the incarcerated population — but in reality are often just slush funds for prison and jail officials to spend with little accountability or oversight," he writes for @bolts.
Bolts · Priced Out of Phone Calls Home - BoltsThe FCC blocked Biden-era limits on the exorbitant rates and fees charged by prison telecom companies, leaving incarcerated people and their families to fight for state-level reforms.

There is no rule of law in Hungary! Maja, a non-binary person who was abducted from Germany to Hungary, has been on hunger strike for over a month.
Instead of releasing Maja from custody, it is now being considered to insert a pacemaker into Maja in order to be able to continue the show trial! Act at last, Commission President von der Leyen!
Bring Maja back!

Today in Labor History July 9, 1917: Alexander Berkman and Emma Goldman were sentenced to two years in prison, $10,000 each, and deportation to Soviet Russia for their antiwar efforts and their anarchist activism. Their persecution by the U.S. government was part of the Palmer Raids, or the first anti-communist witch hunt in the U.S., which led to the imprisonment, death and/or deportation of hundreds of anarchists, communists, and labor organizers. The witch hunt decimated the IWW. And it jump-started the career of J. Edgar Hoover, future head of the FBI and persecutor of activist groups under COINTELPRO, who was then the underling of his mentor A. Mitchell Palmer.
Though Berkman and Goldman were both born in Russia, they were also naturalized U.S. citizens. The U.S. also deported anarchist Mollie Steimer in 1922. So, Trump’s threat to strip Zohran Mamdani of his citizenship and have him deported would be nothing new for the U.S. The U.S. has also denaturalized and deported people on the right, including several dozen Nazis in the 1970s-1990s.
Today in Labor History July 9, 1947: The Greek government ordered the arrest of 11,500 people on charges of plotting a Communist revolution. It occurred during the Greek Civil War (1943-1949), between Royalists (supported by the UK and US) and various Communist factions (supported by Yugoslavia and the USSR). It was the first US proxy war against Russia during the Cold War. Well over 200,000 people died and over 1 million were displaced. Nearly 80 years later, the U.S. continues its attempts to usurp Russia’s regional hegemony through another proxy war. This war has a similar number of deaths and refugees, but in only one-third the amount of time. And this time, both nations possess nuclear arsenals large enough to destroy the planet several times over.
Surpopulation carcérale : la #prison c’est avant tout de l’humain, et je crois que cette notion disparaît. […] Ici, il faut tellement économiser que le kit hygiène individuel n’est plus remis à chaque détenu, mais à la cellule. Un kit pour deux, quatre, six détenus, voire plus. Il nous faut maintenant acheter nos sacs poubelle, acheter tout notre papier toilette… Jamais vu cela en 16 ans d’incarcération. J’attends sous peu un loyer à payer… https://blogs.mediapart.fr/observatoire-international-des-prisons-section-francaise/blog/080725/surpopulation-carcerale-en-seize-ans-d-incarceration-j?at_account=mediapartblogs

Why drugs are wreaking havoc on the prison system – Channel 4 News
Methods the drugs are coming in include drones & being thrown over the wall. I can see the possibility of prisons needing to be covered by netting.

Channel 4 News · Why drugs are wreaking havoc on the prison systemDrugs and organised crime have such a grip on many prisons that they’re undermining every aspect of life inside, damaging work to reduce reoffending and protect the public. That’s the stark message today from the Chief Inspector of Prisons for England and Wales.
Surpopulation carcérale : les personnes détenues prennent la parole
Pratiquement pas un mois ne passe sans que la surpopulation des prisons françaises ne batte un nouveau record. Au 1er avril, le parc pénitentiaire français était occupé à 133%. Le taux d’occupation moyen des maisons d’arrêt et quartiers dédiés, où vivent sept personnes détenues sur dix, frôlait 162%.

This drawing is from my homie JG, someone who would love some letters/support. The state has hit him with 8 grand in fines! He's a good dude and my homie, slowly politicizing him! He'd love zines and books that are radical, too. He's also interested in selling his art if someone wants it.

A "student focused #drugs operation" almost sounds like something you'd see in a prospectus!
Shame about the violence one of the lads had got into (leading to longer #prison time) and that #partydrugs networks are now also blighted by this #roadman culture and #violence (which will only entrench the views of those who want further #prohibition ).
The #student who got the lesser sentence was studying Computer Science - in my youth it was unusual for STEM students to get into #crime like this (liberal arts students tended to push boundaries more), but I guess "drug-bro" culture is all pervasive
The US Constitution, Amendment 13, in modern parlance:
"Slavery is hereby illegal unless they like, REALLY deserve it"
Truly, its a loophole large enough to fit an entire prison industrial complex thru
Today in Labor History July 6, 1918: Uprising against the Bolsheviks by the Left Socialist Revolutionary Party (SR) during the Russian Civil War. One of their goals was to restart the war against Germany, which was helping suppress revolutionary activity in neighboring Ukraine and Finland. They also were frustrated by Bolsheviks’ move away from Revolutionary Socialism and toward “opportunistic service to the state." Maria Spiridonova, who spent years in prison under the Czar, and later under the Bolsheviks, was one of the leaders of the Left Socialist Revolutionaries. She was also a member of the Shesterka ("Six")—6 women SR terrorists who were sent to Siberia. The failure of the SR Uprising facilitated the Bolsheviks consolidation of power and contributed to their creation of a one-party state in the USSR.
