Narrative/Report Excerpt (House Oversight Release) • 1.24 MB
View

This document appears to be an excerpt from a narrative or report discussing prison censorship. It details the specific case of Todd McCormick, whose book 'Magic Mushrooms and Other Highs' was rejected by prison authorities, and notes that upon his 2003 release to a halfway house, his reading materials were confiscated. A postscript discusses a 2011 legal challenge by the ACLU and 'Prison Legal News' against a South Carolina jail that banned all books except the Bible.
