from a radio e-mail list I subscribe to:
The below statement was just sent out from Prison Radio and is
is from Mumia's wife:
"I just received a call from my beloved husband who is now out of
Administrative Custody and in general population at SCI Mahanoy.
He is relieved after being in these solitary torture chambers
for over 30 years. He can't wait to face and embrace me, his wife, and his
children and grandchildren. The next moment is for him to be
released from the belly of the beast. He is surprised at how
many men are in these prison cells--black, white, hispanic. He
said he's been shown a lot of love, from the others in population.
We need to bring Mumia, and all the other men, home!"

then no, he's where he should be - not on Death Row, in prison where he can't harm those in civil society.

(37,549 posts)5. Danny Faulkner doesn't get to hug his wife.
I suspect he'll work up to max security within a year.
edited to add--I'm guessing he cut his dreads, then? That was the reason he was in AC in his new prison.
