Dear Ombudsman, TDCJ, UTMB

 I contacted law firm and they suggested to contact you and start over. I was wrong in the way I was handling it because of my strong emotional responses.

So I want to apologize for my part in our conflicts due to my fear for my son's life. I am a mother who has been trying to help save her child

Kind Regards,

Help Save Bryce
WRONGFUL CONVICTION SET-UP
FRAMED for Murder via the Victim’s
Wife & their Oldest son.
BryceVandergrift 01661857 9-9-1994
VIOLATION OF EIGHTH and FOURTEENTH AMENDMENTS RIGHTS. By acting with an evil motive or intent, or with reckless or callous indifference.
A list of professional persons in the state of Texas, that I have requested assistance from, for my son in this on going matter. The list includes those that ignored my pleas for help to save my son and those that misdirected me, gave me the run around and or flat out lie.
💰 $1,273.80 = RECEIVED EVERY 30 DAY’S
PER BODY IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT=hole
💰 💰 $3,697.80 = EVERY 60 DAYS, “OR”
TWO BODIES IN ONE ADMINISTRATIVE
SEGREGATION CELL. aka the hole.
FOUR MONTHS = OVER 7K tax payer 💰
GO LOOK AT MY SON AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. They REMOVED HIS SCHIZOPHRENIA DIAGNOSIS “AGAIN” AND PUT HIM IN THE HOLE, Mid DEC 2019- Bryce also has MAJOR DEPRESSIVESIVE DISORDER. They then diagnosed him with “SEVERE PSYCHOSIS, I exspresed that psychosis is a SYMPTOM of schizophrenia. It runs in my blood family. They seriously don’t appreciate when you advocate for your child, they take it personally. I’m just trying to save my child from dying at the hands of ADULTS.
Bryce has been a G2 for years. I suspect this unit will attempt to build a false BEHAVIORAL disciplinary case history against my son. Some how Bryce will be blamed. He’s conditioned to reply with… I’m okay.
If an inmate speak out about any form of abuse by those who have power over them… that inmate WILL BE TAUGHT A LESSON… he will wish he was dead. I bet he already does.
WHAT SKYVIEW TDCJ TELL ME
I’m being told by TDCJ, that it’s UTMB medical and mental health staff who are AGAIN removing Bryce’s diagnosis of schizophrenia. I can’t be sure because, with this diagnosis removed, it’s TDCJ STAFF that will BENEFIT by removing him as needing protection, and staff isn’t required to check on non-schizophrenic prisoners as often.
RIPE FOR SUICIDE.
Bryce is a passive 25 yr old young man, who is being placed under brutal conditions “ON PURPOSE” by TDCJ Staff. When will Skyview-UTMB mental/medical staff report this, and or INTERVENE? UTMB website gives a list of items that lead to suicide. Yet it’s acceptable for TDCJ to force inmates into a SUICIDAL MINDSET!

https://youtu.be/3copCtmkZ0k
MOVE HIM OUT OF THIS UNIT BEFORE HE TURNS UP DEAD.
THE ABUSE CONTINUES
He has now dropped “A LOT” of WEIGHT from these SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS NON-STOP-RESTRICTIONS & PUNISHMENTS & removal of his true diagnosis…
My son is over 6 ft tall. HIS TEETH are now the size of a five year old. HIS SKIN IS TRANSLUCENT WHITE from LACK of NUTRITION & LACK of SUN. HIS EYES LOOK SUNKEN IN. Just Twenty five years old and he’s dying.
Bryce Seton Vandergrift 01661857
I’m still trying to find out if his commissary funds have been stolen.
  • ***waiting for reply or call ***
  1. -Skyiew Wardens Secretary
  2. Ombudsman 50+ emails over a year. Ombudsmen’s unwillingness or inability to assist my son, has compounded his deterioration. This office redirects me, no matter if I contact who they suggest, that person says we don’t handle that here. It’s A GAME
  3. Sky Therapist Ms. Green ***

  5. Five emails to FL Gov

April 8th I contacted UTMB Supervisor Stephanie Cervantes. Within hours Skyview unit told me my son was off restrictions, he was now in a group therapy and has his own cell in the dorms…. That lasted a day.
EASY TARGET EASY PREY
Humans like Bryce cannot defend themselves. Not mentally or physically.
4-18-2020 Restrictions remain, he is still in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT or AdSeg, Segregation, It’s called different names. They placed him on strick restrictions, even restricting showers and drinking water. His Deterioration has exhilarated since SKYVIEW entered into his life. No tv, no outside, no socilizing, no phone calls or commissary, no visitors. A small amount of food passed through a slot…NOTHING! He was kept in hole for hours, days, months and it continues.
In Dec 2019, a reporter wanted to interview him. She didnt get to do that.
To be continued
I want my son alive and well. I want my son to come HOME, so I can get him well again.
Bryce’sMoM,
baby please hold on. 🙏
THE PATTERN
So many families have warned that their incarcerated loved one is in danger, they can’t take anymore abuse, they become suicidal because of the constant mistreatment. OMBUDSMENS DUTY IS TO PROTECT TDCJ STAFF. I’ve been emailing them non-stop! He looks at your report, and sends a responds back in a letter which reads: OFFENDER SAYS HE’S OKAY or HE’S FINE. You know & TDCJ knows he’s suffering… UTMB knows, SO MANY UNNECESSARY DEATHS.
THE DANGER REMAINS
I believe Skyview Personnel want to seek revenge against me for a letter I wrote on OpEdNews PRISON IS QUIETLY DESTROYING MY SON.
The Gov of Texas read that letter and had my son removed from dangerous COFFIELD UNIT where he was also put in AdSeg = SOLITARY CONFINEMENT. Bryce was reassigned back to SKYVIEW. Heard Coffield just had another SUICIDE in their AdSeg solitary confinement cell.
Please help save Bryce.
I request that my son be removed from Skyview and placed back to MONTFORD UNIT. Montford had a similar incident years ago. A 27 yr old died under same circumstances. I’m told they have not had another incident since.
PLEASE HELP ME SAVE MY SON.
OpenSocietyFoundation
Sir, GEORGESOROS and ALEXANDER SOROS, please help save my son.
I CAN PROVE THAT MY SON DID NOT SHOOT ANYONE. HE WAS SET-UP TO BE FRAMED. THE EVIDENCE, POINTS TOWARDS OTHERS and away FROM MY MENTALLY CHILD

-BRYCE

THE BOWELS OF HELL THAT IS IN
A TEXAS PRISON.

BEFORE YOU CONTINUE, I am requesting that you PAUSE, and look upon inmates as HUMAN BEINGS –
My son, an inmate, in your prison is
BryceSetonVandergrift-01661857-DOB:09-09-1994
After ten years of constant communication, my beloved child is no longer calling home, or writing. My fear is that he will continue to deteriorate. The forensic psychiatrist and psychologist said he would. Their reports were never presented to the newly appointed Judge. Convicting my then newely fifteen year old, mentally ill since birth, CHILD, is in for MURDER.
Bryce did NOT shoot his best friends father. That’s in the police report. Nor is he CULPABLE for this murder. This is also in a report. In fact the news dubbed this story MURDER or MANIPULATION. Bryce was easily manipulated. The news was told to hush about my son’s mental health history. Bryce was set up.
CONVICTION is all that mattered. He’s now 25 and yes, he’ll always be MY CHILD, MY SPECIAL NEEDS BABY, MY BELOVED SON. Bryce is a handsome young man, a life wasting away. Will he ever get married? Will I ever have a grandchild? He’s deteriorating in Prison because

“HE WAS MENTALLY ILL TO BEING WITH. In my care here in Florida he was fine. Shortly after moving to Texas, to spend time with his Father, Bryce ends up in Prison. All well documented.
Prison is destroying him, destroying me. His father and our older son Brett, had abandoned Bryce, years ago.
I have called the SKYVIEW UNIT and each time I’m told Bryce is free to call or write to me. I don’t know what to believe anymore. He’s NOT calling or writing. He has received letters from TWO very ATTRACTIVE WOMEN, one all the way from IRELAND! and he’s NOT responding? Do you know what that is? That there is A MASSIVE RED FLAG!
Maybe he’s not receiving any Jpay emails, letters, books, magazines, photos and or cards that are being sent to him. This would further his deep depression. And harm our strong bond.
ANY NUMBER OF REASONS COULD BE APPLIED.
1. DEATH-SUICIDE-MURDER-He is DEAD via SUICIDE or Murdered by another inmate or by prison personnel BLUNT-FORCE.
2.MALNUTRITION- He is too weak due to the LACK of NUTRIENTS because the food is worse that what is served a STRAY CAT. And or because he’s being fed two small meals a day, such as a baloney sandwich, a chocolate chip cookie and a cup of contaminated water.
3. RAPE-SNITCH-INMATE VIOLENCE- He’s been GANGED-RAPED and knows if he SNITCHES, it will only get worse. If you SNITCH, your going down, DOWN into THE BOWELS of HELL. I’ve heard first hand and second hand accounts of weakened inmates like my Bryce, being knocked out and raped, then sent somewhere to have their rectum stitched up, Only to be raped again and again as in PIMPED OUT for food, favors, drugs and more.
Is this what is meant by OUTSOURCED VIOLENCE? This system, that is unable or unwilling to protect an inmate from inmate assaults. Apparently, these acts of violence are only “NOT” okay, if they are done OUTSIDE of prison. Inside is another story.
By now Bryce knows there is NO GUARANTEE that reporting RAPE is going to solve the problem. Besides the fact you would now be known as a SNITCH, It’s my understanding that PREA reports are very carefully look over, or carefully OVERLOOKED, this is done in order to keep statistics down.
4. INCOHERENT- HE is INCOHERENT from repeatedly BANGING HIS SKULL up against The CONCRETE WALL, because of the mental anguish and or he just wants to be DEAD instead of being DEHUMANIZED and CRIMINALIZED because he was born PREDISPOSITION FOR SCHIZOPHRENIA, And he has schizophrenia. Managed with medications.
5. EXTORTION-He is being EXTORTED. All his phone funds and commissary funds are GONE.
MORE VIABLE REASONS.
6. GOVERNMENT-FUNDS-PRISON PERSONNEL want Bryce’s thirty year sentence to be IMPRISONED for LIFE, for the sake of THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR BILL. 💰 Thus they have cut his ties to the outside world. Is this part of the FIRST STEP ACT? I have witnessed Laws do the OPPOSITE of what they are suppose to do.
7. BRAINWASHED- He’s once again been brainwashed to go against the only family member left that LOVES HIM, HIS MOTHER.
8. THE HOLE-SOLITARY CONFINEMENT-ADSEG-ADMINISTRATIVE SEGREGATION. Inmates have been place in these for DECADES…DECADES. ISOLATED for
D-E-C-A-D-E-S. Is my son in one of these isolated spaces?
9. HE HAS BEEN MOVED- Has he been moved out of SKYVIEW MENTAL HEALTH UNIT? Is he now in an undisclosed location? Where is my son? WHERE is my son!
10. THE EMERGENCY ROOM AT A LOCAL HOSPITAL- Has he been sent by ambulance back to the Emergency Room? Is he okay? Is my son alive? Is my son ALIVE!
11. INCORRECTLY-DIAGNOSED-Did you change his diagnosis? From what I know, the mental health care is way below any viable standard. Percription drugs are plentiful. Inmates with schizophrenia are NOT suppose to be placed in the LARGER more DANGEROUS UNITS. They did this to him twice before. I’m surprised he’s still alive.
IN ENDING THIS POST I ASK OF YOU ONE LAST THING. PAUSE… Think about my Bryce and others, think about me as a
parent. NOW picture yourself, and YOUR LOVED ONE in our place. This could happen to anyone and IT IS happening.
To those that know and live what my son and I are trying to survive… It is hell on earth. IT IS BRUTAL.
PLEASE HELP ME TO SAVE MY SON. Or share our story. Drop him a letter in the mail… please.
I have thought about making videos whereby I am talking about Bryce’s tragic position. I haven’t because a lot of the time, I just cry. The cruelty that’s flourishing in PRISON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, is trying to crush my beloved son and I. 💔
I appreciate your time & consideration. Kind Regards,
Bryce’s-M❤M msdmariepelletier
PRISON INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX : GIVE ME BACK MY SON! Let me get him well again. I am familiar with this disease. My father had schizophrenia, he took his life at age 39. I have his death certificate that proves this.
Kind Regards, Bryce’sMoM msdmpelletier. 💔
If anything happens to me, please write to my son and tell him how much I love ❤ him and that I never stopped trying to find him help. I would die for my son.
Bryce, I LOVE YOU to infinity and Beyond. Love Your MoM. Always remember that being your MoM has been my most VALUED POSITION in my life. OxO ❤ 💔

SOME recent interesting ARTICLES
NOTES: If you want to know more about prisons and or mental health. I find it best to take time to research the subject. There are lots of places you can hear first hand stories from inmates and or their family and friends and other’s.
Some things sound absurd because they are ABSURD. Such as Texas holds the Gold standard for Mental Health Treatment… On the other hand some stories sound ABSURD, yet they are TRUE. Such as There are more mentally ill, severely mentally ill people incarcerated than are in
any hospital or place in the entire United States. This business is no longer first about any crime, real or fabricated. It’s first about getting those 💰 funds, free to cheap labor and destroying families.
In my opinion, the main reason children are deemed competent adults, is because funding is higher for adults, omitted rehabilitation and they can given longer sentences.
KARMA? NO. The rain falls on the Just and the Unjust.
🌟Dear Fred Cantu Jr. RIP as always Much Respect.
A NAVY VETERAN.
Shortly after he passed, before the case was finished in court. His wife Grace O Cantu collected the Insurance Money. A witness told police that she said in a divorced, she’d get the house or money. He told the officer she wanted both.

Seeking Legal Representation

* http://youtu.be/3copCtmkZ0k





A state representative and fellow veteran has agreed to help me, help my son. I'm to find a lawyer preferably licensed in Florida & Texas to work with my son for a writ of habeas corpus.

🌟 I haven't yet heard back from the State Representative. I'm told it's called ghosting. 
I need a group of benevolent people to join in 
to help free Bryce.

I believe someone has made up a false habitual offender arrest record possibly dated MAY 05 2009. I did a background check on Bryce after this tragedy happened. He had no prior arrest. In the courtroom the defense told the Judge his client had never been in trouble with the law before. This was Honorable Judge L. k. Jarrett's first murder case.

-
Ten years have passed. He's now 25. He no longer has involuntary muscle movements. His tics from Tourettes, subsided years ago. There's more to TS than tics. His mental health is managed with medication. My Tourettes is finally mild!
-
Bryce believes in God. He does not swear, smoke or do drugs. He has no gang affiliation and no tattoos. He loves and respects me. Prison life is deteriorating him both mentally & physically.
-
The defense attorney Anthony B. Cantrell. was hired by Bryce's father, David Vandergrift, who was given immediate plausible deniability and has stopped communicating with our son since early 2013.
-
There are clear violations from being alone when waiving his Miranda Rights and giving a false confession in which he continued to have the details of crime wrong. No one told him there is substantial evidence to show that even the victims wife had motive, means and opportunity. Or that the weapon supposedly found near Bryce's father's home, was not the murder weapon.
-
A witness went to the station and told police about her involvement. The wife and her son wanted Mr. Fred Cantu dead, before they met my mentally disabled child. She was a speech pathologists for special needs children" like my Bryce. I have the police report.
-
What's in the courts case against my son is not what happened. Bryce's history and this case is well documented. I believe this is why I've been denied transcripts. Bryce still believes this was a Capital case and a jury would have given him a life sentence or death penalty. The court case also has fabricated negative information about me as a mother. It's meant to discredit me and is common practice in cases like this. The 55 page forensic psychologist report outlines that this negative info is also false. She told me if this case goes to trial, she will be a witness for Bryce. 
-
My son was told that he had shot a man three times in the chest with a shotgun while he laid asleep on the couch. Bryce said "oh I did"!? as he nearly fell backwards onto the floor tipping back in his chair, in his own astonishment! I was there. The autopsy report shows victim was shot once. Fred Cantu died during surgery at the hospital. I have the report and posted it online. Bryce continues to believe what he was told he did.

Fred Cantu  RIP. Much Respect.
A Navy Veteran. 
-
No one told Bryce that there is a 55 page forensic psychologist report, stating that he is not culpable for any part in the states case against him. And she found my 6'1 child, to be an incompetent child.
-
While EMS was working on the victim, he told police his own son Nick shot him. It's in the police report. As is a blood splattered t shirt upstairs in Master Bathroom, a shirt known to have worn by the victims son.
-
An officer suspected the victims wife and wanted her investigated. Why wasn't she investigated? The lawyer told the newly appointed Judge, well your honor, it looks like my client was the shooter!
-
I still live in Florida, Hillsborough county, Bryce is in Texas. I am a six year honorably discharged veteran. Could Bryce get transferred to Florida? He and I are all we have.

 This pic is from the news on sentencing day, it captures my sons deep frown and sorrow, after he was openly and publicly admonished in by victim's sister MelindaCastilleja, for the death of her brother Fred Cantu Jr.

 I did not attend the sentencing hearing. It was too much for me. I was under a bridge off Roosevelt street, near my hotel feeling suicidal, until I again realized that I'm all Bryce has and I'm the only one that cared/cares about him.

 It's my understanding that NickCantu her nephew and the real shooter, was not admonished. By now I am sure Melinda knows my son did NOT shoot her brother and that he was manipulated to be framed. Bryce still believes he did this.
Dear George Soros, please save my son.  

🌟 any benevolent people wanting to help save Bryce, 4brycesbattle, please contact me. It cannot be accomplished with out the help of others and or a person of influence. And or a lot of money. My son continues to believe what his lawyer and those in control of his case told him he did.
