...Clark University in Worcester, Mass., who has studied political prisoners, feels that Patty has been put through a form of psychological torture often inflicted on such prisoners, and believes that after her release Patty acted much like political prisoners who were suddenly freed.

...lawyers (Jerry Paul and Morris Dees, both white, and Karen Galloway, a black), Alligood carried sandwiches to Joan's cell at about 3 a.m., put them down, then took off his shoes and pants and entered the cell, nude from the waist down.
