Convicted murderer Ryan Ferguson has been separated from the general population in prison after officials found "dangerous contraband" last month in his cell, a prison spokeswoman said. Ferguson was placed in administrative segregation Aug. 17 after receiving a "No. 3" violation, said Angie Daly, a public information officer for the Missouri Department of Corrections. The violation indicates that "dangerous contraband" was found, but Daly declined to elaborate.

Solitary confinement. Those two words carry a lot of meaning to Raymond Luc Levasseur of Waldo, who said he spent 15 years in solitary confinement during his 18 years in federal prison after a conviction for a string of terrorist bombings in the 1970s and early 1980s.
The American people cannot seem to reconcile how two law enforcement officers whose job was to protect our borders from illegal aliens, drug smugglers, human traffickers, and terrorists could end up sitting in solitary confinement, facing over a decade in federal prison, for shooting and wounding an illegal alien in the process of smuggling over a million dollars worth of drugs across our Southern border in Texas. Every law enforcement officer who discharges his weapon in a split-second, deadly force situation, now faces the possibility of being charged under 18 U.S.C. 924 (c)- "discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence" - which carries a mandatory 10-year minimum sentence.
