Letter to Texas Anti-Death
Penalty Activists
Jan. 14, 2002
You want some evidence on what's been
going on here on Polunsky Unit,
get an attorney or someone down here with
a camera and call out Richard
Cartwright #999224..His face should be good
and black-and-blue by then..
Last night 1-11-02 about 9pm a 5 man extraction
team ran in on him.
After he was handcuffed and shackled a Sgt.
Griggs punched him several
times in his face splitting his lips, other
officers kicked and hit him.
I'm sure as usual the video camera was
conveniently off to the side but
there is no denying the evidence of the
brutality upon Rich's face.
Sgt. Griggs has been known to hurt several
people while at the same time
him as supervisor should not be on the team
anyway..He suits up only
when it's certain inmates.
Ya'll all wanted evidence get down here before he heals up.
Things are getting out of hand here and
if someone doesn't act NOW it
will escalate and an officer or inmate will
end up in a fatality. The
ball is now in your court.
