DILLEY,(AP) — A state in
mate claims prison guards or
dered him to catch and kill hun
dreds of rattlesnakes using onlj
his hands and a hoe.
The prisoner, Tim Volk, who is
serving 12 years for armed rob
bery, said he got bitten by oneo[
the snakes, which led to his beinj
passed over for early release.
Now Volk is suing prison
ficials in federal court in San
Antonio.
Volk was quoted as saying in
Monday’s San Antonio Express
News that he caught and killed
rattlesnakes during his twi
stints as a field trusty between
1992 and 1994.
“At first, you don’t mind. It's
kind of a novelty, but it got very
tiring very quick,” said Volk, 35.
He said he killed the snakes
and turned over the valuable
hides to the guards.
Volk said he complained, but
to no avail.
In a civil rights lawsuit filed
last month, Volk claims he was
bitten on Sept. 14, 1994, when
guard Robert McHazlett told
him to remove a small snake
from the work area.
Volk said he saw two inmates
in the hoe squad fighting. As he
tried to toss the rattlesnake
away, “a single fang caught me
on the finger,” he said.
He was taken to a Pearsall
hospital, then was airlifted to
University Hospital in San
Antonio.
Back at prison, Volk said he
was soon written up for three
major infractions: possession of
narcotics, violation of safety
rules and disobeying an orderin
handling the snake.
Volk lost on all three counts.
He said the write-ups kept him
from getting early release and
cost him another year in prison.
He is asking the judge to de
clare the working conditions at
the Briscoe Unit unconstitution-
