Biography

New Afrikan political prisoner held at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary, #84244. Listed as a North American political prisoner in PFOC Breakthrough magazine during the 1980s and 1990s. Documented in PFOC Breakthrough magazine.

Federal sentence and release kept separate from state custody

The original Tenth Circuit order07-6204,page1, records a1982 federal assault conviction and five-year consecutive sentence. Page2 gives July18,1996 release from federal custody. The authorized official locator returns RickkeLeonGreen03949-064 with the same endpoint. A separate federal row preserves that evidence without assigning it to Oklahoma state confinement. No exact1982 sentencing day, federal entry date, state release, or political motive for the assault is inferred. The identified missing portrait remains unresolved.

Oklahoma custody began in 1972; exact day unverified

Green v. Seymour, 59 F.3d 1073 (10th Cir. 1995), dates the beginning of Rickke Leon Green's Oklahoma imprisonment to 1972 following an armed-robbery conviction. This supplies a year, not an exact admission day. January 1 is only a storage placeholder. The generic charge label has been replaced with the court-identified charge; the opinion does not establish a political motive for that offense. His state release remains unverified, and the separately documented federal release is not substituted for it. The duration counter remains blank.

Charges: Armed robbery
Incarcerated: 1972
Sentence: Green v. Seymour, 59 F.3d 1073 (10th Cir. 1995), states Oklahoma imprisonment began in 1972 following a state armed-robbery conviction and continued with additional convictions. YEAR precision only: January 1 is a storage placeholder, not a verified admission day. No state release date established. The separate July 18, 1996 federal release is not a state endpoint; no complete duration or political motive is inferred. https://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/F3/59/1073/496112/
Institution State: Oklahoma
Charges: Federal assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm, without just cause or excuse; Western District of Oklahoma82-CR-62-W
Sentenced: 1982
Released: Jul 18, 1996
Sentence: Five-year federal sentence in1982, consecutive to previously imposed sentences, as documented on page1 of the2007 Tenth Circuit order. YEARprecision only; storedJanuary1 is a placeholder, not an exact sentencing day. Page2 explicitly dates release from federal custody July18,1996; authorizedBOP RickkeLeonGreen03949-064 independently matches that day. Federal arrest and admission are unverified; no entry date is back-calculated from the five-year sentence. This is distinct from Oklahoma state custody and does not date a state release or assert uninterrupted freedom thereafter. The original court identifies an assault prosecution; it does not establish that the charged act was Black-liberation activity.
