Silenced smut bard, behind bars, sues DOC
By Laurel J. Sweet
Tuesday, December 27, 2005 - Updated: 02:03 AM EST

The clink was the muse for Miguel de Cervantes’ “Don Quixote.”
Fellow “writer” Joseph Schmitt, 41, a convicted child rapist, simply wants to save for retirement by churning out pulp-fiction gay porn. But the state Department of Correction thinks it’s time he find a new hobby.
Banned-behind-bars Schmitt, who claims his naughty novellas, published in raunchy periodicals, once earned him $19,400 in one year, filed suit against the DOC Thursday, arguing it’s not just a paycheck, but his constitutional rights on the line.
Four years ago, while Schmitt was doing time for raping a 9-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy, the DOC “confiscated” 40 of his sexually explicit works.
“We, as an agency, feel we are within our rights to discipline any inmate who is engaging in pornography,” DOC spokeswoman Kelly Nantel said yesterday. “They have to be held accountable for their behavior.”
In court papers, Schmitt, who is currently a civil detainee at the state’s Nemansket Correctional Facility in Bridgewater for the sexually dangerous, argues it’s his right “to earn a living.”
He seeks to recoup the $19,400 in lost wages, plus an additional $50,000 for the damage done to his reputation as a smut laureate.
Three months after the manuscripts were seized, according to federal court papers, the DOC revoked Schmitt’s television, radio and phone privileges when he tried to mail a child pornography story to an inmate in New Mexico.
Schmitt insisted the work was autobiographical and based on a boyhood experience, but a DOC hearing officer, apparently not inspired by his prose, wrote, “Hopefully inmate Schmitt will re-evaluate his personal goals and intentions while incarcerated.”

What a POS

Posted by: KozmoKramer

Can somebody tell me why the other inmates arent pummelling the shit out of this worm?
Isnt that the type of "in-house" justice we on the outside keep hearing about with these scum-bag pedophiles?? I guess I under the delusion that child rapists got their "due" in the joint, pity if that isnt a demonstrable fact.

Child molestors are kept in a segregated section. I'm sure this guy wouldn't last 30 seconds in general population.

wishful thinking........there's so many inmate sex offenders now,that it doesn't carry the stigma it once did in the inmate population.Most inmates have no real morals anyway.

I'm not entirely sure that is true Delta.
Take a look at this thread from last year; it details the life that fat pig who raped and killed the Curley boy from Cambridge has in Concord.
Sounds like he has the life he loves in the joint...
Homosexual sex anytime the fat cowardly punk wants it.

This guy must be joking...he actually thinks he has the right to earn a living...okay maybe earn a living at like fifty cents an hour like most of the scumbags in prison. This guy needs a dose of what he dished out and then some and a good f****** beat down... which I would be more then glad to help with

SGT GRUNT hit it right on the nose. there are so many f***ing

POS in my joint they actually take a stand againt that type of action. Its disgusting because if I as a C.O. ever even called them a "name" I could be sued. They live, work and walk with GP inmates everday. As a C.O you have to give "normal" inmates respect because we all have disgust for these POS. Its easier to work with max custody inmates because nobody wants to work with "them"

Because if you put him in the population...

If you recall, Jaynes actually had scalding water thrown in his face, shortly after arriving at Concord. I work with a guy that was DOC in Concord when Jaynes & Sicari were brought in, and he told me they were both marked men in general population.
