“When we walked into that section of the jail that is completely separate from the rest of the inmates and the other pretrial defendants there – what I saw is what appeared to be men who were political prisoners of war,” Greene told Friday’s “Greg Kelly Reports.” “They had thought that they were forgotten. They had thought that everyone didn’t care about them. They felt hopeless.”
Despite being abandoned and abused by their country for Jan. 6, the inmates share a love of the country that does not love them back, singing the national anthem 9 p.m. every night in the “patriot wing,” Greene told host Greg Kelly.
“There’s people in this country that take a knee for our national anthem, people that make millions of dollars, but these men in jail, they sing, they stand for the national anthem, and they put their hand over their heart and they sing it more patriotically than I’ve ever heard in my life,” she added, saying Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, and their congressional staffers sang along with them.
Greene had been rejected on demands for months to visit the controversial D.C. jail – which has been scrutinized for inhumane treatment of inmates – and was only permitted to visit the “patriot wing” after being initially denied access. She said she refused to leave and it required phone calls on her three-hour tour to get access to the “political prisoners of war.”
“It should never happen to anyone, and here’s what everyone can do: Stop being complacent, stop sitting on the sidelines, because complacency and sitting on the sidelines and refusing to speak out is why we are where we are in America,” Greene continued.
“You know this is the greatest country in the world, and we are not a country where people should just languish and rot away in jail simply because they didn’t like the outcome of an election.”
Federal Judge orders January 6 political prisoner set free after ‘deplorable’ conditions found at DC jail…
By: Kane, Citizen Free Press, November 8, 2021:
A federal judge on Thursday ordered that a Jan. 6 defendant diagnosed with cancer be transferred to another prison after an inspection at a D.C jail found that prisoners were living in “deplorable” conditions.
Judge Royce Lamberth ordered that Christopher Worrell be immediately transferred to another jail and then released to home detention for chemotherapy as soon as possible, CNN reported. He stated that the “court has zero confidence” that the D.C. jail would provide proper treatment and not retaliate against Worrell.
Last month, Lamberth called on the Department of Justice (DOJ) to conduct a civil rights investigation into the alleged civil rights violations that Jan. 6 defendants suffered under D.C. Jail Warden Wanda Patten and the director of the D.C. Department of Corrections, Quincy Booth.
“I don’t know if it’s because he’s a January 6th defendant or not, but I find this matter should be referred to the attorney general of the United States for a civil rights investigation into whether the D.C. Department of Corrections is violating the civil rights of January 6th defendants … in this and maybe other cases,” Lamberth said at the time.
Lamberth held the two officials in contempt following a long delay in paperwork needed to approve a surgery Worrell reportedly needed after a fall earlier this year.
The U.S. Marshals Service is currently moving 400 prisoners out of a section of the D.C. jail – Worrell being the first of them – after an inspection discovered poor conditions, including water being shut off for days, toilets being clogged and one inmate developed an infection when he was unable to wash himself.
Worrell has been indicted on six federal charges and has pleaded not guilty.
Since being incarcerated, Worrell has contracted COVID-19 and has been diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Last month, prosecutors argued that Worrell was making false claims about his health, writing in court filings that they have “repeatedly been unable to sort fact from fiction.”
An attorney representing Worrell, Alex Stavrou, shot back at prosecutors’ characterization and asserted that his client’s medical issues were real. “Mr. Worrell also suffers from Non-Hodkins Lymphoma. To date he has not received chemotherapy. He has never caused any delay in seeking treatment for his cancer,” Stavrou said.
When reached by The Hill regarding Lamberth’s order, Stavrou said in a statement, “We are pleased with the Court’s Order allowing Mr. Worrell to obtain the life-saving cancer treatments he needs. We are also pleased that over 400 inmates will be transferred to facilities where they will receive proper treatment and care, and not be subjected to the deplorable conditions noted by the United States Marshall’s investigation.”
