My husband, my hero: The story of a prisoner labeled ‘worst of the worst’ | San Francisco Bay View ~~ Then imagine you worked very hard in prison to appeal your wrongful conviction while completing programs to transfer out of the supermax prison to a regular level IV prison within the span of seven years and then were framed again by prison gang officers using a tattoo you got as a child, a symbol in a birthday card and other fabricated evidence to “validate” you as a “prison gang associate” and label you “worst of the worst” and placed in segregation in a Security Housing Unit, or SHU, for years on end. That is exactly what happened to my childhood best friend and husband, Robbie Riva.
