Jail Mail
From the AP -- "Extremist Taunts His Victims From Prison" [How Appealing]:
In other jail mail-related news, you can access here the PA federal district court judge's order invalidating (on First Amendment grounds) the "Pennsylvania prison mail policy that permits prison staff to open [outside the presence of inmates] incoming legal and court mail that does not bear a prison issued control number."[Eric] Rudolph, who was captured after a five-year manhunt and pleaded guilty in deadly bombings at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta and a Birmingham abortion clinic, is serving life in prison at the "Supermax" penitentiary in Florence, Colo.
Housed in the most secure part of the prison, he has no computer and little contact with the outside world aside from writing letters.
But Rudolph's long essays have been posted on the Internet by a supporter who maintains an Army of God Web site. The Army of God is the same loose-knit group that Rudolph claimed to represent in letters sent after the blasts.
