Robert Lietsch
1) Robert Lietsch is 28 years old , white
male. He came to prison in 2008. His
public defender expressed concerns with
his mental health at his sentencing and worries that he would be in and out
because of revocations and since that time has had two revocations . Each time Robert and his
lawyer were assured he would get treatment while incarcerated but that never
materialized .
2)He was in a mental institution 4 times
before he turned 12 and he says they it helped. “When The DHHS(the Department
of Health and Human Services) was involved with my life I made the most
advances.” he was diagnosed with lifelong ADHD, bi-Polar, depression, Childhood
PTSD, Conduct disorder by the DHHS in years before incarceration however the DOC refused to recognize his DHHS
diagnoses “and only has me as adhd, depressions and anti- personality disorder
with borderline personality.” He
states the DOC changes his diagnosis every time he comes back and now he is
a MH-w whereas he was MH-2 in the past. He was taken of medication
and
3) He was taken off medication and says
since he has been taken off medication his conduct has been terrible and he
spends a lot of solitary time.
4)He did “positive psychology” (says it
did not help) and was send to WRC for coping skills (30 days) but begged and
pleaded to stay for additional treatment “cuz I am so worried about y violent
thoughts and self harm.” But of course I was ignored and since have cut almost
daily and recently attempted suicide.”
5) I am in solitary TLU as of right now
but most likely they will put me in disciplinary separation for attempting to
kill myself, Timeline is unknown but if I am lucky, three months. Was sent to
ER to save his life.
they use punishment and obs as I deterrent for my mental illness. Has file complaints and many PSU slips asking to be seen because I am having scary flash back voices but none has ansred snce I came to solitary.

Segregation
_while I was on obs I had no running toilet water was give 6 squar pieces of
toilet paper in a room naked with only my thoughts, no book , blood and feces
all over the walls , feed small portions, and cold meals. I want on obs 8 p28
17 and was seen by Dr Norge for 4 to 6 minutes ( not removed from cell) , then
told I’d been seen by one doctor over a three day period * 30 17, 8 31- 17, 9 1
17- was engaging in self harm . hitting my head and requesting to talk to a
doctor but no one ever came in.
9)general
health care: to describe CCI’s health care please request info on all the
lawsuits and complaints filed- its astronomical
10)training
while in prison: HSED (2009)very useful. Vocational (ground maintenance) not
useful since we have winters in WI.
/ERP(2013) best program I’ve ever received, really helped me understand myself.
11)release:
invited to live with friends but was DOC rejected/ no id /30 days living
quarters he thinks/ n phone/ no clothes. Yes voucher for thrift store/no bus
pass/no money/transport by agent yes/ curfew yes/GPS and everything(
restrictions) “my PO won’t even allow me a x-box or gym membership. I have an
extremely strict PO
REVOKED FOR
NONVIOLENT RULE VIOLATIONS
12) specific
issues
a)Its crazy no politician is complaining about
the size of the DOC budget,
b)Everything
here in a max seems to be very old and outdates. They don’t have many resources
at all. I can’t write about this it upsets me. They continue to set e up for
failure each time I am revoked. Cuz they claim on each revocation that they are
going to give me rehabilitation mental health treatment – which is 11 years of
incarceration has only made me more ciminal and angry. C)So the rerelease
curriculum – you have to choose between going to rec or going to the library to receive the
curriculum-we only get 2 or three recs a week
d)No rec,
COS are very abusive
e)finally on
help with release: I have received absolutely the bare minimum. My parole agent
hasn’t even helped me find a place to live. I have a perfect situation up north
but PO refuses to let me over there.
