Office of the General Counsel (Yeah, Right)

Here is a letter that I submitted with my "child porn" appeal to the B.O.P. Central Office in Washington D.C. after it was rejected for reasons that, as usual, made no sense and even directly contradicted official B.O.P. policies (which you would think the Central B.O.P. Office would know):

And here is a copy of the actual appeal that I filed (and that got rejected):

After resubmitting my appeal the second time, along with the letter at the top, it was accepted (for processing) even though I made no changes. I basically had to tell them how to do their job (according to policy), which I seem to end up doing a lot, at all levels of the appeal process, from institution to regional and now even the Central Office. Go figure.

(To tell you the truth, I don't really think they don't know how to do their job, or what their own policies say. Instead, I think that they deliberately "pretend" not to know, and they think this feigned ignorance is actually part of their job. It's just "how the system works". Yeah. Right.)
