The Thorn is a newsletter published by individuals incarcerated at the Secure Treatment and Rehabilitation Center (STARC) - Oakview located at Marcy, NY. https://omh.ny.gov/omhweb/facilities/starc/
The editor hopes the reader will find the content of our newsletters of some use and interest.
Because the New York State Office of Mental Health (OMH) seems to believe they have the legal authority to restrict residents from communicating with one another, the editor will not provide copies of this newsletter directly to detainees at STARC-Oakview.
However, the Thorn is written in the hope the attorneys of civil detainees, public officials, and certain advocates will share the information it contains with individuals in civil custody.
