Brother Is Being Abused In Prison. How Can I Protect Him?
Location: VA
My younger brother is in prison with about 6 years left of a 10 year sentence. The past few months and possibly, longer than we are aware, my family and I have picked up on intense anxiety and fear from him whenever we communicate (messaging, calls, in-person visits). I’ve been aware of bullying and abuse going on from what little he actually tells us. Many times we speak on the phone just to have him say he’ll be back and come back sobbing as if something happened. Everytime we ask, he alludes to have had something happened but he never discloses exactly what. He is in his 20s and he’s told stories of being violently beaten by men 2x his age, size, and strength. Just now he has made us aware that a gang in the prison has been particularly targeting him. There is a plan to have about 10 of them beat him tomorrow and he is scared relentless, as are we. I know the prison system is incredibly corrupt. The times I’ve visited, the stories I’ve read and heard, all absolutely disgusting and heartbreaking. Especially with the guards involvement. I am pleading for what actions my family and I can take to keep him safe and alive, specifically for tomorrow’s beating, but also in the future. I also fear as I do not want whatever measures we take to help him potentially put another target on his back for retaliation. Any help or guidance is so appreciated. Thank you.
