In prison judges and lawyers are targets...
Celebrities, actually. The post conviction legal services prisoners need are endless. The best friend you can have in prison is a lawyer even if he is also a judge. I have two friend who served over 10 years combined both for agg vehicular homicide and they each had a thriving, if not profitable law office from their prison cells. They ghost wrote thousands of motions on everything from special diets to habeas corpus.
So what. Everyone is a target in the joint. Besides, they a get the protective custody cage. It’s no problem.
