Day 28 — Swift Justice Hunger Strike


Listen Later

Day 28 of Swift Justice’s hunger strike marks a critical and deeply concerning moment. In today’s update, listeners hear from his wife and family as they continue to ask hard-hitting questions that remain unanswered by those in authority.

Warden McKee confirmed today that Kenneth “Swift Justice” Traywick is alive, communicative, and being monitored daily. However, despite this confirmation, the family has still been unable to identify a decision-maker with the authority to address the underlying issues that led to the hunger strike or to engage in meaningful dialogue to resolve them.

Attempts to reach Commissioner John Hamm or to schedule a meeting were unsuccessful, and no alternative leadership contact was provided. Efforts to contact YesCare at Bullock Correctional Facility resulted in unanswered phone calls with no option to leave a message.

At this stage of a prolonged hunger strike, monitoring alone is not enough.

The family respectfully requests:

  • Confirmation of formal medical contingency planning
  • Identification of the responsible decision-makers
  • A scheduled meeting between Commissioner Hamm and Mr. Traywick’s wife

This episode centers on prevention, transparency, and the urgent need for resolution. The family continues to seek answers—not just for Swift Justice, but for accountability within a system that should not require a life-threatening protest to prompt action.
