Inmate Loses 105 Pounds, Says He Is Being Starved

When I read this, I could not believe it! He should be grateful he is eating and with that amount of weight around is there any amount of food that could satisfy him? spock.gif

QUOTE
BENTONVILLE - Broderick Lloyd Laswell says he isn't happy that he's lost 105 pounds over the past eight months and is down to 308 pounds.

Laswell is an inmate in the Benton County Jail and has filed a federal court suit complaining about the diet he's been fed by the county.

According to the suit, Laswell weighed 413 pounds when he was jailed on a capital murder charge in September.

Police say he and a codefendant fatally beat and stabbed Randy Walker, then set his trailer home on fire. An autopsy showed that the Walker was dead when the Aug. 30 fire was started. Prosecutor Van Stone says he"ll seek the death penalty for both defendants.

Laswell's suit was filed without a lawyer in U.S. District Court in Fayetteville. He claims the jail doesn't provide inmates with enough food.

"On several occasions I have started to do some exercising and my vision went blurry and I felt like I was going to pass out," Laswell wrote in his complaint. "About an hour after each meal my stomach starts to hurt and growl. I feel hungry again."

This goes to show everyone you can sue for just about anything. He is getting three meals a day free of charge. I say let him have a extra meal or two but make him pay for the food. $15 a plate should work.

He is getting three squares good enough left him go hungry. After all what has he done d warrant special treatment. Better still charge him $600 a month for being in a weight loss clinic and ease the tax burden.

I am wondering how many times he has passed out due to his exercise he has to do daily too? Yeah a weight loss clinic now that will be a good way to use old jails. Treat people like prisoners and force them to lose weight. Charge them $400 a week to cover food and utilities. What an idea. I am glad this guy gave me this idea. biggrin.gif
