I'd like to address the concerns raised by Tim Drake in his most recent post. Namely, that I used torture on David as punishment for when he kidnapped and impersonated me for a week. I didn't.
David was not harmed or mistreated, and that can be corroborated by both another warden and another inmate. I was teaching him a lesson about the misuse of his powers; he's been unethical with them in the past. The only way to get through to him was to use a punishment that would stick. I saw no viable alternative, and if one had been available I would have used it.
And I was angry. I'm no saint, but saintliness is not in the job description.
The punishment was harsh; so was what he did. I underestimated how much it would affect him, but I will not apologize for doing my job.
Lynch me for that if you want.

[Warden Filter] - He is really annoyed with having to repeat himself so much :|
He made me an enemy in his head before we were even paired. And all the stuff I've done to help him out - which is not insignificant, by the way - is getting buried under something I did because I was angry and a little deranged. And I have moved on from it. I'm not going to do this to him again.
Again, I'm not a saint. Not pretending to be. Never did. The Admiral obviously wanted me for a reason - maybe it's my way of looking at the world, maybe it's my methods - but I'm not going to please everybody with how I do things. And frankly, I shouldn't have to.

Costigan came in of his own accord. He even talked me down on the length of time for the punishment. And he's friendly with David, from what I understand. If you don't want him talking to me, then take that up with him, but I was not about to ignore him pounding on my door after that post.
