sure, but that doesn't mean that the judge didn't recommend to send him there. You shouldn't send anyone to a Supermax, but if you do, it's for some Lex luthor type of villains, not a local gang leader. Even the three life sentences plus 105 years are ridiculous. He is neither a mass murderer nor an organized crime kingpin, he's a relatively minor figure. The only reason they threw the book at him in the way they did is because je pissed someone off.

Who knows. All I gotta say is that he must have a lot of power or be one dangerous dude to have to be sent there. Judging from that interview he did along with uncle murda and star, he seems like one of those types. I would not cross him and would stay far away from him. He's a goon.

Crips call bloods slobs for a reason. Rather Diggs problem is he got bigger then his money was, instead of waiting for his money to catch up. The only time this guy should've been in those projects is when he was picking up his money. That's why I don't think he was the boss
He's very powerful and high ranking but they're overdoing it with the sentencing and where they placed him. He's dangerous but he doesn't belong in a supermax with Terrorist and serial killers

When u go to supermax, u usually deserve it. I don't feel sorry for them. But I do think they should just execute them. I remember reading about a Mexican Mafia trial here in cali. It was no doubt these dudes were guilty and would never be released. And they managed to get orders out of the most secure unit in the state(SHU @Pelican Bay), out to the streets of Southern Cali. Yet California doesn't want to execute anyone. Shyt is :mindblown:. Pelican Bay is damn near in Oregom, yet Criminals can control the streets from a Jail Cell in a supermax unit. I dont know what more u can do w/ people like that. They ended up sending them to ADX. Feds dont seem to wanna execute people either.

If they're so dangerous put them down. If you're going to isolate people you can at least allow them outside. 23 hours in a cell is ridiculous. These anti death people don't want blood on their hands but you don't have to kill someone to get bloody. What they're doing to these prisoners is just as bad.

It's pointless. The death penalty is at this point too expensive to maintain or even use. Besides they make more money off of him alive than dead. They lose more money like that killing him. Only time they will start using the death penalty again is for political reasons.

Exactly. Then u get a situation like Tookie Williams. It was clear that when he was executes, he had actually been rehabilitated. He was no longer the person u incarcerated. And they killed him. You woulda thought they would at least commute his sentence to life. Sh1t makes zero sense. He could have done a lot more alive.

Whose to say where he belongs? Do u know what he was doing inside? Usually drug dealers try to run drugs inside tge institution as well. Serial Killers are usually food for inmates like this guy. He's charismatic, physically imposing and a high ranking memeber of a notorious gang. He's more of a candidate for Supermax than a Serial Killer.

Crips call bloods slobs for a reason. Rather Diggs problem is he got bigger then his money was, instead of waiting for his money to catch up. The only time this guy should've been in those projects is when he was picking up his money. That's why I don't think he was the boss

I'll never forget that Latin Kings Doc HBo had. King Tone was driving around in a bucket, eating Chili and Crackers at Wendy's. Hangin in the hood and shyt.

It was all political. Arnold got elected twice because of that.

I just feel supermax should be reserved for extremely dangerous criminals on a national security level. Ra Diggs isn't a threat to everyday citizens. He's not going to plot to blow some shyt up. He might still move drugs from his cell, but there's alternatives to supermax. That's like stabbing someone in the head for stepping in your shoe.

My guess is somewhere in there after or before his conviction, there were threats or the talk of threats to the proseceutors, the witnesses, the judge, and their families. That is a quick way to get sent to ADX, in addition to his other convictions and criminal history. I know Francisco Javier Arellano Felix, before his cooperation agreement leaked was in ADX Florence.
