In the midst of the 9/11 hysteria, the publication of this article in Don Diva magazine in the summer of 2001 turned Seth into ‘BOP Enemy #1’ and resulted in his transfer to a higher security prison. His transfer was based solely on the words appearing in this article. During that transfer, Seth was put through a nightmare journey courtesy of the BOP that included diesel therapy, SIS investigations, trips to the hole, and a stay in a drycell. The BOP tried to break him, but Seth wouldn’t stop writing. The retaliation and harassment from his keepers only made him stronger mentally and forged his pen hand in steel.
