Serial killer likely to be watched carefully

SEATTLE - Life for Gary Ridgway in prison is likely to be a life lived under a microscope, but that may be the only way for him to survive.
"He's afraid for his future in prison," said King County sheriff's Detective Frank Spence, a member of the Green River Task Force. "He's said that before."
Ridgway's fear may be well founded, as more than one relative speaking at his sentencing Thursday expressed the hope he would be killed in prison. One went so far as to say she knew people in prison who would do it.
"I think he would be dead in a month if they put him in the general population," said Tony Savage, one of Ridgway's attorneys, adding that he's confident the Washington State Department of Corrections officials "will do their best to make sure he's safe."
Officials won't give out transportation schedules, but, after he was sentenced, Ridgway was returned to the custody of the King County Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention.
Officials expect Ridgway to be classified as a close-security inmate.
As such, he can expect to be under visual supervision at all times, even if he's in the general population.

Windtalkers [ RACKETEER INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATIONS US Title 18 ]
Tell me, did you ever run into any Injuns
on the Solomons?
-Indians, sir?
-Navajo, to be exact.
The Corps has developed a new code
based on their language.
It's had quite an impact.
So much so, the Navy have decided
to go to great lengths to protect it.
That's why you're here.
You're to pair with one of them,
keep his ass safe.
Your job is to keep him alive,
so he can do his job.
Begging your pardon, but I believe
I'd best serve the Corps killing Japs...
not babysitting some Indian.
We didn't pick your name out of a hat.
We need good Marines.
That's why you're standing here.
Take a look.
It's a Navajo, or was.
Tortured to death by Japanese intelligence
trying to bust our code.
Fortunately, he couldn't help them
even if he wanted to.
The man was a Navajo, not a codetalker.
The code's based on their language,
but it is still a code.
Tojo would like nothing more
than to catch a live one.
