this petition is a plea to stop the inhumane treatment that my husband LINDEN MARK BROWN is recieving at "FEDERAL PRISON TERMINAL ISLAND" My husband has multiple physical ailments including a shattered hip that already has had x5 total hip replacements attempted to no avail and now is just jagged bone on bone which has caused several other problems including shortening of the damaged leg by several inches causing curviture of his spine,drop foot, etc.He has excrutuating pain daily.At sentencing it was ordered and promised by the prison it that he was to continue getting his meds. and did for 6 months,now without any kind of doctor seeing him hes told he don't need his meds. and has been taken off of them.I am not sure the warden is aware of this,being it is a life threatening situation,even stated by prisons doctors that to discontinue his meds. would be endangering his life.PLEASE this is a urgent pet. that I need to send to warden "Joseph Woodring"by this Thurs.Nov.13th THANK YOU in advance

The volume of support has secured a meeting with a legal advocacy group to formalize our complaint to Warden Woodring. I am currently finalizing the petition packet for courier delivery to ensure it reaches the administration directly.

Whatever he did he is still a human being. Stop torturing him and give him his meds back immediately.

This is sick. How can they just stop medication that a doctor already said was necessary? Poor man, he deserves basic human decency.
