MELBOURNE, Fla. -- Inmates in a state prison or county jail often write letters to the media insisting on their innocence, claiming they have been wronged by authorities and lawyers or abused while incarcerated.
But James Poulin, jailed almost four years while awaiting trial for DUI manslaughter, complains of "torture" at the Brevard County Detention Center, saying inmates are forced to watch the same movies over and over and it is taking a toll.
Poulin, 45, blames Brevard County Sheriff Jack Parker.
"Parker gathered up a bunch of old (movies) he had laying around and played them over and over for the next year," Poulin wrote to Local 6 News partner Florida Today. "I have seen 'Black Hawk Down,' 'Pearl Harbor,' 'Saving Private Ryan' and 'Battle Front' hundreds of times each, sometimes two or three times a day. ... Like the old Chinese water torture, the inescapable sounds of these movies over and over works on nerves and psyche."
