“Former Alabama governor Don Siegelman was sent back into solitary confinement after being interviewed for a Washington Post article this week, the newspaper reported.

Siegelman, now 70, is incarcerated at a federal correctional institution in Oakdale, La. He was transferred into solitary after the story appeared online Monday, his son Joseph Siegelman told the Post.”

Rather humorous that Obama urged states to curtail the practice, then off goes the Don to same.   Of course, some idiot will claim that Spider King Carl Rove was even responsible for the latest punishment.

“The Obama administration is pressing individual states to join its mission to cut back on the use of solitary confinement in US prisons, in the hope of reining in a practice that is still widespread despite having been denounced as potentially amounting to torture.

The drive from the White House and Department of Justice is tacit recognition that without the cooperation of state corrections departments and legislatures – many of them Republican-controlled – the goal of reducing solitary confinement will remain a pipe dream.”
