For my Louie,

My dearest Louie, 22 years in Seg and you never hurt anyone!  How much longer does this madness need to continue. This latest blow is the hardest to comprehend. I am praying for your strength to continue forward until this vendetta by the state of Texas and Allred prison is over. I pray that the Lord open their eyes, so that they can see that they (Allred) are holding a terrible grudge against you. Stay strong and remember your true family would never hurt you in any way. The ones who really love you will always show you, even if it means putting their own selfishness and embarrassment aside.

For my Louie,

I pray that someone reads this and has the courage to help us. You never hurt anyone; never raped or murdered, and yet you are sentenced to ad Seg for 22 years. This makes no sense, only that the Texas prison system is prejudice and vengeful. One day, my love, you will come closer to home and start to recover. I miss you so much and your real family loves you very much.

For Louie,

I am praying for your strength. Hang in there...the Lord will send me someone soon and that person will help us get you educated..

For Louie,

My birthday wish...that Allred would start to move and realize that you never hurt anyone and never will....you only want to better yourself and redeem yourself for past mistakes. Your true family loves you very much and we will never give up on you. You are the one who has suffered the most...everyone else has had a choice since then. Now it is time for you to get the chance to prove yourself to society and make amends for what you have done. I will never give up on you. I promise I will be there and here for you, through thick and thin. I continually pray that the Lord will send me someone who has the courage to help us...I pray for guidance. I love you...

For my Louie,

You are in my heart everyday and you are not forgotten. Many people love you very much and we will get you through the pain. I pray that Allred starts to move and allow you to be educated and better yourself. You never killed or maimed yet you are continually being tortured. I am still fighting for you. I know the Lord will send someone soon to help us get you through. Hold on tight and watch!

My Heart is Yours Mi Amor



For my Louie,

I am still praying for you. How alone and lost you must feel. But you are not alone. Your real family loves you and has not forsaken you. I will continue to fight for you. Be strong and walk straight.

For my Louie,

I have been praying for you to continue gaining your strength. The thought of you being in isolation for 22 years makes me sad, especially when you have never killed or hurt anyone.  The injustice of the prison system is mind-blowing. I am praying for Allred and Huntsville to get their stories straight and come to one accord. Stay strong while the Lord moves to get you educated and ready for the free world.

For the young one reading this, you wounded him deeply, but we all still love you and forgive you. Praying for your healing, too.

For Louie,

This is for Louie, who has made some bad choices and who has hurt people, even the ones he loves. I have no idea what he was thinking, but I tell you that I am unable to throw that fist stone. Honestly, the difference between Louie and the rest of us is that we have never been caught. I am not asking that he be released because he needs to pay for what he did. I am only asking that Allred accept that he has been rehabilitated and educate him. Isn't that what Allred wanted? He has no discipline problems. Let's get him educated.

Thank you for your prayers. And loved one, if you are reading this, you have accomplished what you had hoped for.

For my Dearest Louie,

I can't imagine the pain you are going through...losing your daughter and not being able to do anything about it. ALLRED, Have you considered the psychological damage that 21 years of Ad Seg has done to your men? They have done horrible things, but they are not animals. I will continue to pray for ALLRED and that the Lord moves in you...and that you will let go of your vendetta against this man that never killed, maimed or raped.  Let him get educated, let him get educated, and let him get educated. What kind of man will you set free in six years? You don't even provide GED's at ALLRED? Shameful!

For my Louie,

I thank God for those who are stepping up now, to help Louie. Everyday, I think about how this man has never killed, raped or molested a soul, yet has been placed in Ad Seg for 21 years. He has been sentenced to another year in extreme isolation. Even murderers have been let out of Ad Seg, only typically being there for no more than six months. I have ruffled some feathers and Huntsville and Allred...they are really angry.   Oh well.

Thank you to all who are helping me get Louie Sapien Loya out of Ad Seg!

For my Louie,

How I wish I could at least see you now. The enemy is out in full force and all I can do is pray for you and your strength. I pray that those who are now fighting against me will realize that I refuse to back off. I will continue to fight for you because you are worth it. No man should be put through that torment and torturous third-world treatment that Allred prison has put you through. You never hurt any one. It doesn't make sense as to why they continue to want you isolated. Even murderers  have been released a head of you. This is confusing, but I will still fight for you, to be educated and trained for your freedom. I can't allow this retaliatory system keep you in isolation 23 hours a day, moved every thirty days, and no communication with your loved ones...for another year!!!

For those of you who pray...thank you for praying for the Lord to send me someone who can help me free Louie.

For Louie,

Yet another disappointment, but you wouldn't know it if you spoke with him yourself. He is positive and somehow has kept his sanity while in isolation for 21 years. Keep in mind that he has never killed, raped or molested. There are men who have done those things, and they get moved out of AdSeg, educated and allowed to talk to their loved ones. Atrocious. And after this year's hearing...a three minute meeting with boxes that were most likely already check-marked...he was told he will be in isolation for another year. 22 years in Ad Seg??? Where are all the advocates? Where are all the Hispanic leaders??? Do you all have your head in the sand or are you just afraid to take of the Texas prison system??? Am I the only one out here who thinks this smells like vendetta and retaliation?

For my Louie,

My attention is now directed toward Huntsville. I have come to find through my research, that Allred has very little power and control over what goes on in their prison. Huntsville is in charge of everything that happens in Texas prisons. I suppose this is much like TEA having authority over me in my classroom. So, heads-up Huntsville...here come a bunch of letters and emails...

A short meeting and a few check marks...a man who never killed anyone and is currently listed as a level four trustee, continues to endure more inhumane treatment in Ad Seg...more than 21 years of this hell. Enough is enough, Texas. I am frustrated at the prison system grouping these men into one category! How about looking at each man individually? How about looking at how he has improved himself without your help! Come on Texas...come out of the 1800's.

An update...

I was so happy to finally get a response to my letter writing campaign for Louie. This was the last person I though would ever respond and yet he is the first. Today, I received a nice letter from the Warden at Allred. I was impressed with his candor and his respectful tone. Honestly, I was impressed that he responded at all! Anyway, thank you Warden Wathen.

I am still praying for my Louie. 21 Years in isolation is inhumane. Did you know that he can't even call or touch the ones he loves. Please keep  in mind that Louie never raped or killed anyone. Yes, sin is sin in God's eyes...but someone explain to me how men who have murdered are not in Ad Seg. but this sweet man is.  This is all I want to know!

For Louie,

Try to imagine what it would be like if you were away from your family, and were not allowed to talk to them on the phone. Louie, who has been in segregation for 21 years (the longest I have researched is 6 months) is not allowed phone calls home to his family but for every three months! This is an outrage. He told me he no longer calls home because the prison charges him for each call. Even more ridiculous is that he is forbidden to call cell phones...in a day where most of us  don't have land lines, he is unable to call cell phones. This is all due to being classified as a gang member.

Please keep in mind that Louie never killed, raped or molested anyone. It is hard for my brain to imagine that the murderers that Louie has met in Ad Seg over the past 21 years have been allowed to go to Gen Pop, phone home, and shower whenever they want.

I am looking for someone with courage to help me get Allred's gang classification code removed, so that he can go to Gen Pop, get a job and be prepared for parole.

 

Thank you for your prayers :)

For Louie...

Louie has been in Ad Seg for 21 years. Please remember that Louie has never murdered, raped, molested or seriously harmed anyone. He is in isolation for what I believe to be a personal vendetta on behalf of the Texas prison system. Louie was in fear for his life and he felt he was in danger. Yes, his reaction was serious and not unlike something any of us would have done, but he never seriously harmed anyone. He deeply regrets his reaction to a very intense situation. His treatment is inhumane.

Where are my Hispanic friends in defense of this Hispanic male,

socio-economically disadvantaged, who's lawyer was provided

by the Texas prison system???

It is time to act! Louie's classification hearing is in one month. Louie should not have to endure another moment of isolation....21 years is too long, inhumane, and outrageous.

For Louie

It breaks my heart that Allred has the power to remove the code that prevents Louie from bettering himself. I had hope that the Texas prison system be concerned about educating inmates so that they can enter into society and be productive, law abiding individuals. Third-world tactics of isolation (21 years for Louie) is cruel and very unusual punishment.

Thank you for your continued prayers!!!

For Louie

If you know any one who is an inmate (over two million people are incarcerated in American prisons) then you know how much they love their mom and family.

Louie has been in Ad Seg for over 21 years and is not allowed to call home to a cell phone. He is only able to call his family once every three months. He is charged for the call.
I read in the news yesterday that inmates in California are on a hunger strike because the prison system has them labeled as gang members when they renounced the gang, which allows the prison to keep them in isolation for what ever length of time the prison decides. This is exactly what is going on with Louie.
Allred refuses to lift the gang code on Louie. Remember that he renounced the gang years ago. So, because of their refusal to do so, Louie is in a cell 23 out of 24 hours a day, no physical contact with anyone, no phone calls, He is moved to a different cell every thirty days, he is lucky if he gets a shower. Listen, he never hurt anyone...this is a personal vendetta perpetrated by Allred because Louie made a really bad decision that changed his life forever. Remember, no one was ever killed.
I wonder why the Hispanic community is not outraged! Where are you? Where are the attorneys who fight for these men who are treated so inhumane...yes isolation is third-world tactics. This is shameful coming from such a great nation! Speaking of attorneys...Louie's attorney worked for the Texas prison system!

Hello??? Where are all of my Hispanic friends who are fighters?

Where are the attorneys who fight for those who are prejudiced against?

Are you sleeping???

It is time to wake up and help this man who yes, made a horrible mistake, but is the highest level inmate trustee, has a clean jacket, who is Godly, and who only wants to get out of prison and do something good for society, who never killed or raped.

Please help me contact Allred Prison Classification to remove the H.S. code and allow Louie to move into the Grad Program so that he can get educated.

Thank you for your prayers. With God's help, we can do all things!

For Louie

Today, I wrote another letter to the Allred Classification Unit in hopes that they will drop all vendetta and retaliation against Mr.Loya. He has been in Ad Seg for 21 years (that is 21 years of isolation) when he has never killed anyone. His neighbor who has killed, went from Ad Seg to the Grad Program just this past weekend.

I hope and pray that Allred please reconsider your vendetta...Yes, he placed great stress on one of your own and I understand the retaliation that Louie has had to endure for 21 years, but he has never killed a soul and has a clean jacket due to good behavior. He only wants to better himself, get educated, and move to a prison closer to home (El Paso) to serve out his time. Please allow him to move on. Please put your retaliation aside, please let this 53 year old Hispanic male move forward and become a better person.

Allred,  would Louie be in Ad Seg for 21 years if he wasn't Hispanic? What if the aggrevated kidnapping had not been a CO? He is not in a gang and never killed anyone. Please reconsider Louie's classification, please allow him to get educated, become corrected and continue to show you that he is a changed man who fully regrets what he did in a moment of panic and fear.




Everyone...please continue to pray with me...pray for wisdom from Allred. If you have the time, will you please contact Allred with me and let "Classification" know that it is time to follow the Texas Department of Criminal Justice protocol to lift the Aggravated kidnapping code after ten years (it has been 17 for Louie) and that he be placed in the Grad Program today of which he has already been accepted. 

For Louie Sapien Loya

Ad Seg for over 21 years is inhumane and may only be used as serving out a personal vendetta by the prison. I found out yesterday that Louie's neighbor in Ad Seg was moved to the Grad Program. This program is the educational group that is suppose to help those who renounced the gang. Remember, this is what Louie did many, many years ago. The crazy thing is that Louie has been ACCEPTED into the program, but Allred refuses to change his gang relations code! Outrageous! You should be outraged as well, especially if you are a Hispanic male. This is a Hispanic man who never killed or raped. Yes, he did a serious crime, but how is it that Louie's neighbor, who killed another inmate, was just moved to the Grad Program. This is unreal and something needs to be done. Please, help me contact Allred classification and demand that justice be served for Louie. He must enter the Grad Program, get educated, be given the tools to do good, and move forward.

For Louie

Louie is no saint! He has done hard time and for good reason. My question is...Could this hard time be a vendetta and retaliation for his crime? I am asking for someone to help me, someone who fights for those who have been treated harshly, inhumane and unjustly. I believe that you have fought for much less and this will be a fight you will easily win!

How can I tell you just how amazing Louie's family is and how much pain they have endured in his incarceration? Louie's heart is only for his little girl, the one he truly loves and the one who gives him daily hope to keep his faith and sanity. When Louie was sentenced 21 years ago and placed in Ad Seg, he was not the only one who was sentenced. His little girl has the strength and endurance of her Dad, though! She is strong like him and will continue to push forward to see justice done for her father.

 

Thank you for your prayers. I feel the Lord working in making this right!

for my Louie Sapien Loya...

First and foremost...Thank you for your prayers! I feel that the Lord is starting to move and things will start to improve for Louie Sapien Loya.

I asked Louie how he is able to survive being isolated for 21 years (we can only communicate through letters because he can only call loved ones every three months, and I want to ensure he uses that "privilege" for his immediate family). He said that the CO's have tried to kill him, they will refuse to feed him and disregard his belongings when there is a shakedown. A shakedown is when the guards go through inmate's belongings in search of paraphernalia. This is very legit, but keep in mind that Louie has no contact with anyone; that is isolation.

Louie's response to my question was truly amazing...He has seen inmates in isolation (none longer than him) "commit suicide", but he promised his Mom(his pillar of strength and next to his daughter, the love of his life) that no matter what...he would never give up. He tells himself everyday that it is ok and he has it in his mind that there is hope. This, I believe, is his faith talking!

Now, about his Mom...please hear me while I try to get you to understand and experience through my words what happened when Louie's beloved Mother died. Allred would not allow him to attend his own Mother's funeral. Outrageous, cruel and inhumane. Remember...I am not talking about a murderer, I am telling you about a gentle man who made a huge mistake in a moment of bad judgment (must like everyone else on the Planet). If you know a little about inmates, no matter what mistakes they have made...they love their Mom's more than life itself. The death of his Mother was almost the ruin of Louie and he almost gave up, but he remembered his promise. And then he was told he would not be allowed to go to the funeral. Now, this may certainly be policy...I honestly don't know, but is the retaliation against this man so strong that they would prevent him from going to say goodbye to his Mother or even "being there" at the funeral via conference call? How would you feel, never having hurt anyone, not being allowed to say goodbye to your precious Mother?  

God, help us and help me fight against this injustice, retaliation and personal vendetta.

Thank you for your prayers...they are working and the Lord is starting to move!

For Louie Sapien Loya

I believe that people should get a second chance. I don't believe any one should be thrown away like trash.  We are told to forgive so that we can receive forgiveness.  Louie has been an ideal inmate with only one issue on his record in prison...he had a pet mouse! That's a big no-no.

He completely regrets what he did in holding the officer against his will. He has been in isolation for the past twenty-one years; no human contact, shower every three days, moving to a new cell every thirty days, cannot call his loved ones.

He has renounced the gang years ago.

 

We need Allred to remove the gang code so that Louie can be forgiven and start to work on his future. This vendetta must end. Please help me pray for Allred to not cave to the pressure of "payback". I can't help but wonder if the CO involved has become a Warden somewhere in Texas...having great power and using it to take advantage of a minority of Hispanic culture.  Allred, please remove the gang code and allow Louie to move forward. Please pray that he no longer is treated worse than an animal.

Thank you for your prayers.

For my Louie Sapien Loya

The website dedicated to Louie Loya is now up and running.

Please go to louiesapienloya.com

My goal is to get information about Louie Sapien Loya's circumstance to you. Again, please pray, first and foremost. This is the only way I will see change for Louie Sapien Loya.

What do I pray...That Louie keeps his faith and his mental stability, regardless of being in isolation for 21 years. Also, that the Allred Prison Unit in Iowa Texas will put their life-long vendetta aside and show some humanity for Louie; lift the label of gang member (remember, he renounced the gang many years ago).

 

So, you may be wondering exactly what Mr. Loya did to wind up in jail in the first place.

First let me say that he is no saint! He committed a crime and yes, I believe he should be punished. He actually paid for his crime 17 years ago, but due to extreme mental anguish and fear for his life from the Texas prison system...Mr. Loya believed his life was in danger, and fought for his life. The prison says that he tried to escape. This is ridiculous due to the amount of security that surrounded him. I will tell you more tomorrow...

Everyone, I would have lost my mind 20 years ago if I had been placed in isolation. Ad Seg is a temporary assignment, but as you can begin to see, Texas has a personal vendetta against Mr.Loya and has issued an inhumane punishment that we wouldn't even see in a third world country. I thank God everyday for Louie...his heart is in the right place, he deeply regrets what he did when he took matters into his own hands and acted against the Texas prison system because he believed he was in danger. He has paid dearly. The blatant vendetta against him must stop.

 

Inmates take their own lives due to the extreme and inhumane punishment dished out by the Texas prison system. I thank God for Louie's strength and courage.

Please help me bring Louie Sapien Loya home

Thank you and God bless you for your help

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Louie Sapien Loya

Louie has been improperly "coded" as a gang member. As a result, he is unable to leave Ad Seg. This is an outrage. I am concerned that the prison does not keep accurate records of their inmates gang activities. They seem to be unaware that some inmates are not gang members. If so, then the opposite is true...they don't know of inmates that are truly gang members. Hence, they will either be placed in Ad Seg like Louie Loya when not a gang member, or placed in general population and do serious harm as a gang member. 

 

This threatens the integrity of the unit



For my Dear Louie,
Today I was reminded that Ad Sag is for the worst of the worst. Killers, rapists, child molesters. Louie Loya has done none of that! Please hear what I am saying...

Louie Sapien Loya has been in isolation for 21 years due to a vendetta by the Texas prison system

He is not in prison for murder, rape or molestation, but has been isolated for 21 years.

This is outrageous and must be stopped

The James Allred Unit has labeled him a gang member, however he renounced the gang many, many years ago. Allred refuses to remove that label and has instead decided to throw away the key due to a personal vendetta. My concern is that by speaking out for him, the Texas Prison system my retaliate more...

Please help me pray for him. Pray for wisdom on behalf of the Texas Prison system and please pray that the Lord will send me someone who can help me fight for Mr. Loya's freedom.

Dedicated to Louie Sapien Loya

Louie Sapien Loya has been in Ad Seg for 21 years. For those of you who do not know what that means, here is a brief explanation...
Administrative Segregation (Ad Seg) is another term for isolation. Some of you may know it as "The Hole". This is where the murders are sent, in order to be kept away from general population (gen pop). These men are in their cell for 23 out of 24 hours a day. Their food is brought to them. Whenever they go to recreation (rec), these men are cuffed and escorted by two officers to a cemented, small yard with very little sunlight. Ad Seg means that these men are not touched by any other people, ever. They are not allowed to make phone calls to loved ones as with gen pop.  They may get three minutes of phone, every three months. In essence, they are not allowed any contact or communication with other people.

 

Louie Sapien Loya has never killed or raped

yet he has been in isolation for 21 years

 

This is an outrage

 

This must be stopped

Louie Sapien Loya

Mary & Petra (2013)

Hello and welcome to my blog.

• This blog is dedicated to a very special person.
• Louie Sapien Loya is someone that I hope will be important to you by the time I accomplish what I have set out to do.

 

My name is Mary Compton and I have set my mind and heart to helping Louie gain his freedom.

You see, my dear friend is being wronged and prejudiced against by the Texas prison system, more specifically the Allred unit in Iowa Park, Texas.

Louie was locked up 21 years ago. Louie made some really bad mistakes, much like most of us, only he was caught. He made one horrible mistake, out of fear for his safety, that resulted in additional years added to his original sentence.

He has six more years to go, however I am hoping that he gains his freedom sooner than that.

LOUIE NEVER KILLED, MOLESTED OR RAPED

 

This is very important and please try to understand the unjustified and inhumane method of his treatment at the Allred Prison Unit in Texas...

 

LOUIE HAS BEEN IN ADMINISTRATED SEGREGATION FOR ALL 21 YEARS!!!

 

I am asking for your prayers and any other help you can give me in helping Louie gain his freedom. A website is being created and I will continue to provide information. Feel free to contact me (only serious offers of help, please), especially if you know anyone involved with civil liberties and/or the criminal justice system.

 

Thank you
