"Connecticut home invasion inmate seeks kosher diet" Associated Press September 13, 2014
NEW HAVEN — One of two men convicted in the gruesome killings of a mother and her two daughters in a 2007 Connecticut home invasion is suing the state, arguing that his rights are violated because he is denied kosher food in prison.
You get the same gruel as everybody else, right?
Steven Hayes, who is on death row at Northern Correctional Institution in Somers, describes himself in his federal lawsuit as an orthodox Jew and asserts that he has been requesting a kosher diet since May 2013, The New Haven Register reported.
That should go over good with the white supremacist faction in the prison population as well as with the black Muslims training to be terrorists.
Hayes, 51, said denying him a kosher diet violates his Eighth Amendment right that forbids cruel and unusual punishment because he is being forced to eat nonkosher food to survive.
Well....
‘‘I have been suffering almost starvation for the past year,’’ Hayes said in his lawsuit.
Not winning me over since people are dying all over the planet, every minute and all, innocent black people in Africa who never did a thing except exist.
A spokeswoman for the Department of Correction declined to comment and said the lawsuit has been referred to the attorney general. A spokeswoman said the attorney general will respond in court.
Public defender Thomas Ullmann, who has represented Hayes, said he is pleased that Hayes ‘‘has some spiritual interest and is occupying his mind.’’
‘‘He has been consulting and speaking with a rabbi and has been asking for more time with the rabbi,’’ he said.
Hayes’s desire for kosher food is a ‘‘legitimate request,’’ Ullmann said.
Bon appetite!
That would be an appropriate punishment. Ever see those meals? I'd rather starve.
Hayes was convicted of capital felony, murder, sexual assault, and other crimes and sentenced to death for the July 2007 killings of Jennifer Hawke-Petit and her two daughters, 17-year-old Hayley and 11-year-old Michaela, after a night of torment in their home in Cheshire. Another man, Joshua Komisarjevsky, was also convicted and sentenced to death.
I'm sure I could find the links somewhere, but you know.... so what does he think, diet suits will delay execution?
Hayes has sued before.
Uh-ha.
A federal judge denied a lawsuit in November 2012 seeking to change his prison conditions, ruling he did not provide evidence that his mental health treatment was inadequate or back up his request for changes to his diet.
He also complained his legal papers were confiscated as a form of harassment or retaliation. The judge said Hayes did not show irreparable harm.
And Hayes also sought an emergency motion seeking relief, saying his prison cell was too cold and that he was misdiagnosed by staff who said his suicidal tendencies, depression, and other issues stemmed from his crime rather than his conditions.
Poor fella.

Sure, it's a supremacist paper, but it's only serving its dwindling readership. Why do you think they make it?
