This week, we share a statement from former political prisoner Ray Luc Levassuer about the recent death of his comrade, Tom Manning. Then, we speak with Micol Seigel about e-carceration, otherwise known as electronic monitoring. Seigel works with the group Indiana Against E-Carceration, who have a series of upcoming events lifting the voices of people affected by e-carceration. In this interview, Seigel discusses the unforeseen complications, burdens, and tragedies produced by electronic monitoring – everything from prohibitive costs to users to to the punitive measures those users face when their monitoring devices malfunction.
