Kodak Black Says Prison Officers Are ‘Killing Me Slowly’ Behind Bars
Written by SOURCE on January 16, 2020
Kodak Black claims that there is a “big conspiracy going on” at Miami’s Federal Detention Center. He took to Instagram Thursday to talk about his experience serving his prison sentence in the facility.
The “ZEZE” rapper called out Lieutenant F. Arroyo and Santiago Torres, who are apparently officials inside of the detention center, for allegedly conspiring against him, setting him up, falsifying incident reports, and interfering with his mail.
“Lieutenant F. Arroyo has been very vindictive towards me and I have a strong feeling it has something to do with me being set up, laced, bruised and brutally beaten two weeks before my court date,” he wrote on Instagram.
“There is a big conspiracy going on in this building on Me. Santiago Torres is using her position wrongfully in Miami FDC and is abusing her authority,” he continued. “She has been writing falsified incident reports on me, to take phone privileges that I get once a week while in solitary.”
Kodak claims Torres threatened to take his girlfriend off his visitation list, blocking her from seeing the rapper during his prison sentence. “One morning, she pulled me out my cell to tell me she is going to ‘Take my pretty little girlfriend off my visitation list’. For no other reason but to add insult to my distress. Not being able to see my significant other while locked away in this hell hole.”
The rapper also said his mother was blocked from seeing him before Christmas, on December 23rd. He details other incidents, like his family not getting any of his letters, and that he wasn’t fed breakfast on New Year’s Eve.
“My family hasn’t received none of my letters for the holidays. Which is borderline cruel and unethical, but as if all this is not enough, on December 31 New Year’s Eve to be exact, I was handed an empty tray for breakfast,” he explained. “I brought it to their attention, but nothing was done for me. Since the camera shows them entering a tray through my flap, but meanwhile there is nothing in my tray when i opened it.”
Kodak also wrote an Instagram post detailing the life of Pete, one of his fellow inmates. The rapper says Pete took his own life after being constantly ignored by the officers in the building.
“It’s sad because everyone was aware of his health issues and one C O could have found it in the kindness of the heart to do their jobs and simply call medical, his family wouldn’t be mourning his loss as of now,” Kodak said. “Everyone here knows of this tragedy but it’s being hidden from the public eye. I am grateful that I was blessed with a platform to shine a light on this catastrophe and the injustices that go on within the land of these walls.”
“They are strategically killing me slowly in here. I have been humiliated over and over again,” Kodak stated. “I am highly disappointed in the way they have treated not only me, but all the other inmates in this facility.”
While he’s been in prison, Kodak made a variety of donations to charity groups, religious institutions, and individual families in need over the holidays.
