The “Good Guys”? Yes, but consider the source. November 23, 2007

When we went deep into the solitary-confinement area of prison this week, many inmates stared at us and called out questions or comments. They don’t have many visitors back there.
My investigator told the first inmate who asked that we were from the state agency that handles inmate defense. (He does that in hopes that it will make the inmates less likely to throw crap at us.)
That inmate immediately announced to all of the others, “It’s the GOOD GUYS!”
One of them asked me, “Are you conducting an audit or something?” I told him the truth, that we were there investigating a case. He said, “That’s the kind of lawyer I want!”
It was pretty good being called “the good guys” for once, but this IS the section where the prison claims to house the craziest inmates.
