I have suspected that heat was killing people for years, and particularly that Americans in prison were secretly being killed in a variety of ways due to neglect and exploitation, and that heat was one of them.
Kwaneta Harris writes about the deaths happening and her experience and what is happening to the other women at her prison. I checked to see if she was actually a woman, and it seems she is. Although doing this to trans-identified males is not acceptable. Doing this to any human is not acceptable.
"The air is so heavy and humid that it’s like sucking a thick milkshake through a straw. I saturate my sheet with tap water and roll myself in it like a burrito, then I lay still while my fan blows on me. I have to wake up every hour and a half to repeat this cycle. I keep my sink filled with water to submerge my head. Sometimes, I fill my two large bowls with water for each foot. This is how I fight for my life."
"Daily, young women are under constant observation for suicide attempts so that they can get transferred to the air-conditioned psychiatric center. As a failed deterrent, prison staff places people under suicide watch in an empty cell, nude with only a gown and paper triangle for drinks. No fan, mat, toilet paper, or pads. The sergeant announces the psych center is full and threatens to tear gas anyone who cuts or hangs."
