Ramsey Orta
A letter from  Ramsey Orta  dated Oct. 16 says  he  was roughed up by correction officers at Franklin Correctional Facility that day and taken into isolation.  He  said a nurse was uninterested in taking a report of the abuse.
âI fear for my life in this facility and canât take the ongoing abuse anymore  please help me!â  Orta  wrote in the letter shared with the Daily News by  his  lawyer.

Orta  26  pleaded guilty in Staten Island court to drugs and weapons charges last year  resulting in a four-year sentence. Authorities said they caught him selling crack  heroin  oxycodone and marijuana in the Staten Island park across from where Garner died.  Orta  was busted with a gun in a separate incident.

 Orta  said in  his  letter from prison that five to seven correction officers were involved in moving  him  to solitary. One of them âshoved my face into the wall very hard and started to pull my hair from behind and began to slap me on the right side of my face a few times â  he  wrote.
During a pat-down   he  said  the same correction officer âgrabbed and pulledâ  his  genitals twice.  Orta  says  he  was then slapped again.

 Orta  was thrown in solitary for a âtier 3â infraction typically linked to contraband or fighting  Plasse said.  Orta  hopes to be out of solitary by Thanksgiving.
A notice of claim filed by Plasse says  Orta  was duped in December into trusting an inmate at Fishkill. The inmate lured  Orta  into an ambush where he was slashed  the legal papers say.
The attorney said he is still preparing a lawsuit over the incident to be filed in the Court of Claims. The notice says  Orta  will seek $10 million for the slashing.
 Orta  has at least five ongoing lawsuits against the city stemming from  his  frequent run-ins with the law â most while participating in protests.
His most recent suit  filed last month  says he was wrongfully arrested at an anti-police-brutality demonstration in September 2016. The lawsuit notes that  Orta  is the only person at the scene of Garnerâs death who has gone to prison.
