1993 Ford Mustang Special Service Package (SSP) belonging to the Nebraska State Patrol. Equipped with a 5.0 302ci Windsor Engine. These were favored over the Camaros for the higher ride. Since its time in service, it has been restored by a Trooper and it lives its life mainly in Lincoln but moves around the state for parades, events, etc. It still does perform pullovers and backup, if anyone remembers the article from The Drive. Back in the 90s, they were used statewide, not only in larger cities or highways.

The Missouri State Penitentiary was a prison in Jefferson City, Missouri, that operated from 1836 to 2004. Part of the Missouri Department of Corrections, it served as the state of Missouri's primary maximum security institution. Before it closed, it was the oldest operating penal facility west of the Mississippi River. It was replaced by the Jefferson City Correctional Center, which opened on September 15, 2004.

Still owned by State of Missouri, The Missouri State Penitentiary (MSP) opened in 1836 along the banks of the Missouri River in Jefferson City, Missouri, the state capital. The prison housed inmates for 168 years and was the oldest continually operating prison west of the Mississippi until it was decommissioned in 2004. Now the Jefferson City Convention & Visitors Bureau offers a wide variety of tours at the site, once named the “The bloodiest 47 acres in America” by Time Magazine.
In 1831 Jefferson City’s hold on the capital city status was a tenuous one. To ensure that it remained the seat of government, Governor John Miller suggested a prison be built in Jefferson City. Construction began in 1834 and the first inmate arrived in 1836. From then on the prison became famous for being one of the most efficient in the country…and infamous for its notorious inmates and the 1954 riot on its grounds.
A former Union General, the first train robber, 1930s gangsters, world champion athletes, and the assassin that killed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. all came through the gates of the Missouri State Penitentiary (MSP) as inmates. Some left MSP for successful careers in the arts, sports, and even state government; others chose a life of more crime.
In September of 1937, Governor Lloyd Crow Stark signed a bill calling for execution by lethal gas. No longer would the local sheriff be responsible for carrying out the death penalty for those convicted in his county. The days of public hangings in Missouri were to finally come to an end. Many members of the legislature were strongly opposed to the bill and argued that more death sentences would result. Nevertheless, Missouri was, on the whole, a state that supported the death penalty for serious crimes. The bill was changed to lethal gas instead of the electric chair, and passed. In total, 40 inmates were put to death in the gas chamber between 1937 and 1989 when MSP death row ended and all capital punishment inmates were moved to the new prison at Potosi.
In 1985, officials from the MSP, the Department of Corrections, and the Division of Adult Institutions unearthed an old cell block that predated the Civil War. The discovery happened after a court order was issued to put in a recreation yard for offenders that were on death row. When the construction between Housing Units 2 and 3 began, and the crews started digging, they realized they hit something solid. This finding led to an exploration of six cells built around 1848, which were part of the long-buried Centennial Hall. Based on research, this is now believed to be the oldest existing building on the MSP property.
From the earliest days there was a need to isolate the female convicts that came to the Missouri State Penitentiary. Unfortunately, there was little provision for their incarceration. A number of female federal prisoners were sent to MSP because there were no federal facilities for women at the time. Their crimes were, in many cases, violations of immigration, naturalization or conspiracy laws, which coincided with the heightened fears during WWI.
During the years of 1953 and 1954 there had been a rash of prison riots across the United States. Many feared the Missouri system was ripe for an outbreak as well. The potential for riot became a popular topic of conversation which the Missouri Highway Patrol took very seriously, drafting a plan and training officers how to respond to such an event. The advance preparation would come in handy before long.
Keeping desperate and restless people behind bars will always present challenges to corrections officials. Early in the Missouri State Penitentiary’s history escapes were commonplace. Between a lack of a secure perimeter and prisoners working in the community, many escapes were accomplished without much planning or ingenuity.
In conjunction with the Missouri State Penitentiary tours, the museum residing in the lower-level of the Col. Darwin W. Marmaduke House provides additional historical information about the famous prison that operated for 168 years. The museum houses MSP memorabilia as well as a replica cell that demonstrates the living conditions at the prison. Visitors can view the many displays that provide information on prison industries, contract labor/private industries, life inside the walls and control/counter-control as well as items on loan from former Deputy Warden Mark Schreiber.
Unit D6 9, (Troop D, 6: New Castle County.) On its final day at the Fleet Garage in the Butler Barracks. With 122,718 miles, she is put out of service two days before this was taken. PSP's cutoff was 100,000 until budgetary issues moved it to 125,000. As far as I know, this is the last Ford Crown Victoria on the Western side of the state, for the Eastern side holds them for a long time.

Eastern State Penitentiary
Cell Block #7
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Built in 1829, Philadelphia`s Eastern State Penitentiary housed many of America`s most notorious criminals until it was abandoned in 1971. The most famous of these inmates was Al Capone. Built in the style of a wagon wheel, imprisonment here would be awful since there was no heat or air conditioning. This is a photo of cell block #7. It is considered haunted.

Most know all about these, for those that don't...
Laundromats often associated with machine manufacturers to get free or reduced cost signage. Some with Westinghouse, some with other brands, but with Norge, you got a cool spinning ball. There used to be many of these all over the USA, now most are gone. The survivors were mostly repainted & repurposed, but this one still sports the spots. In the middle band, it would have said "NORGE", and the name of the laundromat (if it fit).
I've shot this ball probably 20 times, this is my favorite one so far.

D.C. police strapping up. I'm not sure what branch of the D.C. police department they're from but they definitely remind of the NYPD SRG (Special Response Group) There are many similar militarized police units embedded within police departments across multiple U.S. cities.
NYPD'S SRG was created in 2015 for the purpose of counter terrorism but since its creation they have been used as a force of brutality against protests in NYC. The members of SRG are volunteering NYPD who are usually officers with a history of formal complaints against them for rights abuse and physical harm to citizens. Currently, there are human rights orgs and lawyers/activist calling for a disbandment of the unit.
