The Institution 10 (Conclusion)

Chapter 10 – Penectomy

(A certain young offenders’ institution in a certain state of the U.S.A. – May 2002)

Rich was returned to dormitory 64 at the same time as another young inmate who had been in solitary. Their arrival had also coincided with that of a young newcomer, just sentenced to life without parole for murder, which was actually his second such offence, although he had never been suspected, let alone accused, of the first.

Miller could not believe his eyes as the young cuffed trio were brought into dormitory 64, as one represented past retribution and one future, whereas the other, if he wished to avoid the fate of the others, would share the bully’s bunk soon. The brute thought that his wildest dreams had come true but his delight was such that he could not initially decide what, or rather who, he wanted to do first.

Miller eventually decided to progress through the boys in order of institutional seniority. He would first invite the surprisingly returned cockless Gerry into his bunk that night so that unfinished business could be conducted before Rich was similarly rendered without a male member in the morning. Then the new inmate would be invited to become the new focus for the bully’s penile pleasure the following night in return for remaining able to experience similar with others.

That evening, Gerry actually went to his fate meekly, having been threatened with the removal of his scrotum if he did not obey the summons. The other inmates of the dormitory subsequently clearly heard the now 15 years old’s yelps as his virginity was taken away, along with several loud comments from Miller regarding how strange genitals feel without a penis to adorn them. However, for Rich, the worst to be heard was the intensely frightening suggestion “And someone nearby’s also going to be like this soon!”

The night passed sleeplessly but ultimately uneventfully for Rich, with Miller seemingly content in Gerry’s company. However, Rich maintained a careful vigil during morning ablutions, fully aware as to how Gerry had suffered his penectomy. Nevertheless, the now naked boy’s precautions were to no avail as the shower he was in suddenly emptied and, before the tremulous 15 years old could follow, the washing facility was quickly invaded by Miller and his cronies, blocking all escape.

It was then that Rich saw that Miller had a knife in his hand and soon afterwards a young severed cock was trapped against the shower’s drainage hole grilling, amidst much bloodied water.

There was the usual perfunctory investigation into the appalling assault but as previously only the victim was prepared to tell what happened, with all the other occupants of his dormitory professing no knowledge of the assailant. The investigation was also hampered by the fact that the weapon used to cut off another young penis could yet again not be found despite an intensive search.

The youth accused by the victim, now placed in the medical wing of solitary for his own protection, of perpetrating the vicious crime stood up to interrogation well, continually and convincingly pleading his innocence of any wrongdoing. He suggested instead that the new cockless inmate was mad and had severed his own member. This was a perspective that not only became the official explanation to avoid any more trouble but also led to the subject of the appalling injury being transferred to a secure mental institution. Here his outrage and frustrating disablement did indeed lead to violent insanity, causing him to spend his life alone in a straightjacket in a padded room.

On the night prior to the successful assault, Gerry had been allocated Cy’s old bunk, as the black boy had been released after serving his sentence, with Rich returning to his old bed below. The boys had chatted in a low whisper before lights out, with both very interested to discover each other’s histories and present dangers.

Rich had been particularly startled to learn that Gerry had volunteered to return from the protection of solitary not only to the scene of his penectomy but also to certain attempts at anal and oral assault with an offensive weapon, namely Miller’s cock. By way of explanation, the latter, with the last lie he would ever tell to his new lifelong friend, advised the former that he had specifically requested a return to dormitory 64 to end his loneliness and to become reacquainted with friends.

In fact, Gerry was intent on inflicting terrible revenge, an act that, as a result of the influence of Rich, who did not possess even a modicum of vengeful passion in his nature, he would later regret and spend his subsequent reformed godly life trying to atone for. However, his success in evading accusation for the deed had partly stemmed from the staff's evident sympathy for what they considered obvious, although unproven, just retribution.

Despite his normal non-violent nature, Rich was nevertheless forever grateful that Gerry had been amongst Miller’s cronies because, before the bully could launch his own attack, the 17 years old, like the others naked for morning ablutions, had been kneed in the groin by his previous penectomy victim. This had caused his knife to spill from his monstrous hirsute hand and, before the bully, mind befuddled by the excruciation in his loins, could fully appreciate what was happening, his monstrous cock was no longer attached to his scrotum.

One lesson that Rich and Gerry drew from the incident was to beware of sycophants, something that considerably aided the former in particular during his later life, as, without exception, all of Miller’s cronies immediately changed allegiances. This, allied to the fact that inmates were never supposed to grass on each other, caused them later to deny all knowledge of the crime, as they now all wanted to befriend the obvious new king of the dorm.

On his part, Gerry at first did not mind the acquisition of fawning sycophants who wished to be in his company as much as possible, as they provided useful back-up decoration for a particular task he felt obliged to undertake. After the ructions caused by Miller’s penectomy had died down, the new king of the dorm approached the newest inmate and threatened, in the company of his smirking cronies, to cut this youth's cock off as well. However, his motive, unlike that of his predecessor bully, was not to secure a new sex toy but instead a confession.

Rich had recognised the newcomer immediately. It was the youth who had perpetrated the crime for which the former choirboy had been arrested, charged, convicted, sentenced and then despatched to the institution in ignominy to suffer much distress. However, he had been unable to persuade the youth to admit to the crime, even though it would not have led to any increase in sentence as he was already serving life without parole.

The essentially non-violent Rich was not prepared to coerce the young double murderer by other means and so settled for trying to persuade him over time. However, Gerry was not so patiently accommodating to the newcomer and therefore, without advising his friend of his planned course of action because he knew he would object, confronted the youth, who quickly asked for an interview with the governor of the institution because he had a confession to make.

The result was Rich’s freedom but he never forgot his gratitude to Gerry, regularly visiting his friend until the day he too was released, despite the awkwardness and cost of the journeys from his home city to the institution. He was helped in this by the substantial financial compensation he gained from the State for his wrongful incarceration, which also now afforded him a good education.

The publicity Rich’s experiences gained additionally led to the dismissals and arrests of certain of the institution’s staff. However, the State Governor later managed to influence the legal system sufficiently to save the men from actual prosecution, being afraid that his own role in encouraging very harsh regimes in penal establishments might be revealed.

Nevertheless, the State Governor felt obliged to appointment another leader to the young offenders’ institution, ostensibly charged with instilling reform and correct legal behaviour. However, once Rich’s case had largely been forgotten by the public and the media, activities at the establishment reverted to former practices until, years later, another man was elected to the gubernatorial mansion.

The motorcade swept through the gates of the now deserted former institution, having travelled from the closest airport, and an immaculately dressed man stepped out of the central vehicle along with a local priest. The latter waited as his companion then purposefully strode around the place, wiping away the occasional tear from his eyes as awful recollections, not only of his own sufferings but also those of others of which he was aware, re-entered his mind. However, such remembrance, frequent over the years, had served the people of his State well for they had encouraged him to enter politics in order to pursue his zeal to make society better.

The man, now 54 years of age, had been, after graduating from university in law, a fringe politician for many years, his politics initially being considered too liberal and soft by most voters, an attitude encouraged by the reactionary media prevalent in his State. Nevertheless, he was sent to the State Congress as the Representative for a deprived district and this gave him the platform to air his views more widely. Subsequently, a steep rise in crime, especially of a violent nature, inner-city riots and not unconnected economic recession caused a change in public opinion and as a result more and more people paid attention to his radical ideas.

The man advocated much better law enforcement and correctional systems, but allied to strict gun control, the abolition of capital punishment and the promotion of alternatives to imprisonment for lesser offences, despite vehement objections from the usual lobbies. However, the major theme in his policies was to be vehement on solving crime whilst also being even more proficient on tackling the causes of crime. This induced him to suggest the previously unthinkable, an increase in both personal and corporate taxes in order to raise the money for new education, training, recreation, housing, infrastructure, employment and other social initiatives, especially in the most deprived communities.

The man was, of course, vehemently opposed in his stance by the right. However, the latter, in control of the State for many years, had seemingly run out of alternative workable proposals within their philosophy to tackle the various worsening chronic problems. Accordingly, the man was eventually afforded the opportunity to implement his programme by the people when they elected not only him as their new Governor but also an overwhelming number of his supporters to the State Legislature, in a vote that proved to be a rout of the incumbents.

The faith of the State electorate was to be rewarded, although improvement could not be secured overnight. In fact, it was not until the end of the principled, incorruptible and hard-working Governor’s third term of office that his policies could be seen by everyone to be bearing magnificent fruit. This had muted much dissent, especially in the media which, sensing the man’s success and his unprecedented popularity, suddenly became his most ardent supporters.

Amongst the new Governor’s first actions was securing a radical overhaul of staff and practices in the State’s penal establishments and the encouragement of alternative means of punishment in preference to incarceration whenever reasonably practical for offenders, especially those aged under 18. He was eventually especially pleased to be able to close a number of prison facilities, as the efficacy of his fuller policies came into play, with the termination of operations at a certain young offenders’ institution causing him the greatest pleasure.

The Governor’s accomplishments gradually enabled him to become more visible on the national scene, as he was increasingly being invited to propound his views and experiences on television news programmes and chat shows broadcast from coast to coast. As a result, he became an outside candidate for a certain public office and astonished everyone, not least himself, by securing the position. His success was helped by splendid oratory and debating skills, reinforced by much reading when a boy, and by a public who were despairing of more conventional politicians advocating the usual policies.

The man, such emotional outlet actually good for his faultless persona, eventually had to use a handkerchief to mop up his tears, as his secret unpublicised tour of the deserted and now dilapidated facility came to an end. The wooden post in the middle of the central compound, dormitory 64 and certain rooms in the administration block had, in particular, brought back painful memories. However, he took one last look at the whole scene before he stepped back into his limousine with the patient priest, as it would soon be no more. The site was to become an already fully let new industrial estate, the development being a by-product of the unparalleled prosperity the now former Governor had brought to his State, something that neatly summed up the success of his gubernatorial programmes.

“Well, Father, I never thought, in my wildest dreams, when we were inmates here, that we’d end up like this,” the man suggested, as he and his friend sat in the rear of the spacious limousine. His clerical companion had in fact been one of the many thousands who had benefited from the former Governor’s ideas and reforms by not only giving up crime but also being transformed into citizens contributing much to society.

“Neither did I, Mr….” the priest, unconcerned about problems of celibacy as he had suffered a penectomy inflicted by a young bully many years earlier, began to reply before he was interrupted with an amicable retort.

“Oh, please don’t call me that when we’re alone together,” his companion, now happily married with four wonderful children, politely requested, “as I should always be just ‘Rich’ to you!”

“Well,” Gerry responded with a smile, “I think that you’re more precious than rich, not only to me but to the whole of America and the world!” At the same time that the priest said these words, a certain cockless man by the name of Miller was banging his head against a padded wall.

Meanwhile, Richard Wright, formerly known as ‘61401 Wright R’ but now newly inaugurated as the 50th President of the United States of America, was being driven back to Air Force One.
