Krystal Clark

Hi, my name is Krystal Denise Clark. My inmate number is 435064. I’m in the Valley of Death. Krystal birthed the Valley of Death. It is time to shut this place down. It’s no way I should be treated like this. No one should be treated like this. It’s no way we shouldn’t be dying in here. It’s no way we should be living like this at all. I’ve been waiting patiently, I file to see them every month for chronic care. I’ve been waiting so patiently. I saw the hum hum faithfully. Don Jones came into unit. I showed them my whole body off. I showed them my ears, showed them how swole I am. I’m in severe pain, like I can barely really talk like normally how I talk because one of the nodules in my throat has moved right there by my airway.

It’s really scary. I’m really angry what they are doing to me. They won’t see me. It’s the end of the month, I said, y’all I’m supposed to be seeing me [inaudible] the hum, the man who always sent some information from day one, before he was the [hum], and my files? How is these people getting upgraded to a higher position? And look what they are doing for us! Like it’s something is going on, but make a long story short, I’ve been telling him every day when I see him like I need to be seen. I’m having severe pain like it’s scary how my heart was racing, how sleepiness [inaudible]. I show everybody, the staff, the officers, PC, my ears next day they could look at it like, “What the hell!” It’s so bad. When I say, I was shocked and see how this stuff is growing out of my ears, all over my chest, how it’s growing, I have never saw nothing like this in my life! So he had a little spurt today, and I’m like they are really playing with my life!

“Oh, and if the Doctor Ellison wanna see you, he’ll see you, that’s up to him.” So y’all feel like this doctor in here, that start no goodness, will; that’s lying about my health, picked false information. Everybody, he sent me outside doctors, he tell them it’s like I’m faking and nothing is wrong, so when I get there these PD, doctors, they ain’t believe in nothing I say, looking at me like I’m just a criminal and inmate, not doing anything! This is unacceptable. Enough is enough. I matter. This is my life. I have family. I have kids and I have people who care about me. This is unacceptable y’all, I’m s,. I’m so tired. I haven’t been there. I had a mail come in from somebody from Chicago. Mohammed.

They reject my mail and sent it to the warden. They didn’t even tell me what it was, sent it to the warden. Like so, I’m not getting my mails. Whole month, no mail, that’s unbelievable and stuff but they kept the JPay down for a whole week straight so I couldn’t get the mail from the JPay. Finally it came once a day and I see emails from people. Like come on y’all. Well, we can’t let them get away with this. I need y’all to stand with me. Stand with us. Like I’m gonna stand for us, I’m gonna speak for us. I don’t care. Like I’m tired. Enough is enough.

I’m telling y’all, they are killing me. And you can feel that they want me to die. They really want me to die because how is it possible that everybody can go up — a person can just cut a little fingernail and they can send them to the hospital. Like they did not document anything because they tried to make it seem like I’m crazy, it’s all in my head. Ain’t nothing crazy about me. They are crazy from doing me like this and letting me sit here suffering like this when they know it’s killing me and they know they got medical records proving it. So, ever since I signed that medical release for the parole board, they haven’t saw me, they won’t see me. They telling their lawyers like I’m denying my medication. Like saying I’ve been denying — I never! I’ve been begging!
