Richard arrived at the state prison, as a young man, for a relatively small offense.

As you can see from below he ended up staying a lot longer than originally anticipated. He was targeted after winning the strip cell case by the guards and their inmate thugs. Conditions in the prison were exteremely violent back then and Richard testified about the violent conditions in the prison when the Ad Hoc Committe held hearings.
