2d 1491
Unpublished Disposition
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of
West Virginia, at Elkins. William M. Kidd, Senior District Judge. (CA-9086(E))
Nevil Kirk Hamilton, appellant pro se.
N.D.W.Va.
AFFIRMED.
Before SPROUSE and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior
Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
Hamilton also alleges that conditions on the Protective Custody Unit are
potentially dangerous. He identifies no acts of violence, and nothing in the
record suggests the existence of a pervasive risk of harm which officials would
be bound to protect against. Cf. Ruefly v. Landon, 825 F.2d 793 (4th Cir.1987);
Shrader v. White, 761 F.2d 975, 979-80 (4th Cir.1985). Again, Hamilton's
contentions regarding security risks are meritless.
AFFIRMED.
These include lack of daily access to counseling and the canteen, inadequate
recreational equipment, and lack of "ready" access to telephones
