A Department of Corrections employee tried to extort a lady at CCCF today by refusing to give her her mail unless she talks. This is also a violation of her 5^th Amendment and a Federal Offense. We want DOC to stop breaking the law. This is the same lady who was sexually assaulted a few days ago. She was put on a loss of privileges for 7 days. Another lady tried to hang herself and was brought to the Segregation Unit. At CCCF punishment seems to be the answer for everything

There was another sexual assault in the kitchen at CCCF by the same female officer that targeted another lady mentioned previously. The lady went to tell the kitchen coordinators (who are supposed to be in charge) and she was immediately cuffed and sent to the Segregation Unit. We are very concerned about this situation as there are many more ladies being sexually assaulted in the kitchen at CCCF, but they are afraid to file reports or grievances because they do not want to be handcuffed and brought to the Segregation Unit. It is really saying something when ladies would rather be sexually assaulted, handcuffed, and brought to the Segregation Unit. According to past entries though, sexual predators are using the Segregation Units to isolate their targets. Ladies are not allowed to use the phone there and they make if very difficult to obtain envelopes. They are not even allowed to call their lawyers.

A lady here was sexually assaulted by a female officer upon leaving the kitchen. Two male kitchen coordinators watched as is happened.

We saw on the news today that a Sergeant Grey has sexually assaulted a lady here at CCCF. According to her he also gave her cocaine. According to another lady who has been here for several years he has done this to more ladies while they were in Segregation.

In the Segregation Unit two other officers sexually assaulted a 19 year old lady. She is still in the Segregation Unit. It is obvious that sexual predators us the Segregation Unit to target the women here. We need to do away with the Segregation Unit.

The same lady at CCCF that got a concussion had another one today. She obviously is not getting the right medication.

A lady at CCCF had a seizure. She now is walking around with her face bruised and a black eye. She has gotten a concussion as well. This facility has failed to keep us safe in many ways and this is an example of one of them. This is a violation of our 8th amendment in the Constitution.

Another violation of our rights is when CCCF takes money out of our accounts for petty rules here. One lady was given a week of Loss of Privileges for going out of her room during the line movement to talk to the laundry people about her roommate’s laundry, as she was in a lot of pain and could not get up fast enough. CCCF also took $20 our of her account. The facility has also refused to give her a job, which is also discrimination.

Another lady at CCCF us having her 8th amendment violated because the courts gave her restitution even before she had a chance to appeal her conviction. Her restitution is close to a million dollars. We need our rights to be respected here.

There has been a lawsuit against Washington County for respecting 6th Amendment Rights. This means there could be more for our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 7th and 8th as well as for the 13th, 14th and 15th !

The group Disability Rights Oregon had some of their representatives come to CCCF to talk to some of us individually, but there are so many here that need help. We are grateful for them and hope this is a step towards ending the suffering here.

We also had the CCCF Superintendent come around to the Segregation Units and talk to a couple of people. Some of us are still having “kytes” (handwritten request forms) sent back to us when we try to communicate with her.

Many of us are still being punished for exercising our constitutional rights, trying to get more food, and trying to help each other. We feel this is unacceptable for a facility and we need some changes.
