Biography
Charles Carrington is currently located at Pennsylvania State Correctional Institute (SCI) Fayette after being transferred from SCI Rockview in March 2024. In his commentaries for Prison Radio, Carrington recounts severe mistreatment, gross negligence, and blatant racism in a series of incidents beginning in late November 2023, when SCI Rockview prison guards crafted and hung a noose in their officer station, visible to those in detention at the facility. When asked about the noose, an officer simply replied, “It’s Black Friday.” Attempts by Charles and his peers behind bars to speak out and raise awareness within SCI Rockview were denied, swept under the rug, and resulted in backlash. While the state does its best to silence Charles, it is ever important to amplify his voice. Charles and his others at SCI Rockview shared their testimonies to local journalist Brett Palotto who published an article highlighting the abuse at SCI Rockview in March 2024. His voice is essential in our fight to expose and dismantle the inhumane treatment that is consistently and casually doled out in American carceral facilities.
