New rules on Property, as well as YardTime and Food routinely denied/reduced at CSP-Cor-SHU

Zaharibu's support suggests sending emails to the CSP-Corcoran SHU Ombudsman Cherita Wofford to let her know prisoners held in CSP-Corcoran SHU unit 4B-1L (maybe in other units also but this is what we know) are NOT receiving their rightful property that was ordered via vendors by their family, and they are receiving paper trays of food, which means a smaller portion every day. 

Also they routinely get NO YARDTIME.

ACTION:
Email of the Ombudsman: cherita.wofford@cdcr.ca.gov and cc it to: sara.malone@cdcr.ca.gov.

Here is what Zaharibu wrote:

"We routinely get beat out of everything that we have coming: 

- Yard 
- Personal property items that we are allowed to have (there is a new property matrix out since January and Zaharibu was denied boxer shorts sent in by his parents via a vendor!).
- We are fed on paper trays almost daily.

I have personally spoken to an associate warden here, and the guy who is in charge of implementing the SDP (step down program), both agree that we should get everything that we are entitled to, but neither of them will do anything, nothing at all, to enforce policy and ensure that we are issued those items that we have coming: receive our yard, and receive our full portion of food (something that is not possible on paper trays)."
