The spiteful misdeeds of a vengeful police official have far-reaching and long-lasting effects on the life of a young ‘gay’ man whose liberal lifestyle is seen by the detective as a depraved attack on his own ultra-rigid moral code. The catastrophic results of his misguided actions and malfeasance as a policeman are only the beginning of the flood of tribulations that befall Chris as becomes deeply entangled with the powerful Department of Justice of the United States of America.
Chris Wehner has become the target of an abusive corrections officer at a Federal prison facility. But the sexual abuse is the least of Chris’s difficulties. Swelling of his optic nerve, ignored by the medical personnel of the Bureau of Prisons is eroding Chris’s vision while he struggles to bring medical maltreatments to the attention of forces outside of the prison system. Proper attention may enable him to recover some of his eyesight, or at least retain the little that remains. Chris’s fate hangs in the balance.

Non-fiction first person account of how one deranged policeman can set events in motion that might result in sexual abuse and neglect just because an individual may be of a different sexual persuasion.
Chris Wehner is a prisoner of the United States. His homosexuality has become a thorn in the side of authorities resulting in abuse and neglect as Chris is slowly going blind.
Deliberate Indifference: A Gay Man's Maltreatment by the United States Department of Justice reveals how a few twisted individuals can totally wreck the life of an inmate just because he is different. The book is a wake-up alarm for the public, who sleep feeling secure in that the Bureau of Prisons is protecting them from vile criminals.



Excerpt

You may find it difficult to believe, but now that I was a possession of he Kentucky penal system, I felt somwhat safer. After all, now that I was behind bars, Detecive Ammon had no reason to be concerned about any retaliation from me and I was certain that he would soon forget about me and find another target for his vitriolic animosity.
Right?
Not!
Little did I realize he depth of his vindictiveness, but I was surely going to learn.
