Riker’s Island green
cup — part of a basic personal
kit an inmate receives upon entering Riker’s Island prison. This
cup has a multipurpose function allowing an inmate to shave, brush his teeth, drink
water, or make a hot beverage to drink — using prison ingenuity — while in his cell. Often when prisoners “graduate” — leave prison — they bring their green
cup with them both as a memento and a reminder.
You don’t ever want to be put into a position where you have to use a Riker’s Island green up; or, to actually learn and experience how useful and versatile it is in the life of a prisoner.
Allen Weisselberg is drinking out of Riker’s Island green cup. Let him sip out of it for a bit; because If they sweat him a little and threaten him with more time; he may just
flip on Donald Trump.
You know how they do new prisoners who don’t know how to jail; have no
clout; and, no set to have their back. There is no such thing as
soft time or short time on Riker’s Island.
