(Baraga, MI) – A Michigan prison inmate who started with a minor sentence – and then took on the administration and staff at Baraga Max – has filed a federal court lawsuit with accusations of brutality, racial slurs, and trying to provoke fights with inmates.
The revolving Michigan prison door often involves inmates and “guards” fighting – because some corrupt corrections officers act unprofessionally, instigate fights and conduct write-ups for revenge against inmates they hate
Plaintiff: Randy Beasley #631420

U.P. Breaking News believes in using the term”corrections officer” for true professionals however any CO that acts unprofessionally is nothing more than a miserable prison guard who should be locked up if committing crimes against prisoners. Under-staffing is one of the biggest issues – and of course certain state official are enriching themselves off the maggots that are fed to prisoners in the U.P mixed with rotten, non-nutritious food.
The Michigan union that represents corrections offices does little and considers those that exposes low-staffing and inmate abuses to be on their enemy list.
The Baraga Maximum Security Prison is located at 13924 Wadaga Road in Baraga, MI. Many of the inmates who organized the riot at Kinross were sent to maximum security prisons in U.P – including many to Baraga Max – to never be heard from again.
U.P. Breaking News is publishing these lawsuits because they never win in deferral court and it is the only way to put a spotlight on Michigan extremely corrupt prisons. U.P. Breaking News has been contacted by current and former COs who fear that unprofessional conduct by Cos and staff will lead to murder and riots. If you kick a dog – it will eventually bite you.

However, MDOC has a long policy of duping and lying to the media. U.P Breaking News lost faith in the honesty of MDOC when they lied about the Kinross riot and even fooled the Marquette Mining Journal into running a false story in their Sunday edition declaring it was a minor protest by a handful of Kinross inmates marching outside the eastern U.P. prison.
Allegations:
Excessive force against inmates by Baraga Maximum Security Prison corrections officers
Immediate Danger to inmate
Assault and battery
Constant danger of retaliation by corrections officers
Regularly using word “nigger” to provoke inmates
Mental and physical torture
Here is the state info on the convictions – and it bears the marks of an inmate who comes to prison on a short sentence – and then is given many more years after protesting his rights and a “assault” on Baraga Max Cos.
