said no but might have talked about it as an alternate activity to their criminal activity. Mr. Berg also stated
that he might have talked about his divorce and children but only as a tool when counseling inmates.
Mr. Berg when asked if he knew why allegations like this might have been made he replied "they get
crushes on me fast" and "maybe this isn'tthe place for me." Mr. Berg when first asked if he had ever made
any inappropriate comments to any inmates he replied no but late in the interview Mr. Berg stated that he
might have made some inappropriate comments, but awhile ago. In fact now he has been told by CUS
Daniels to lighten up with inmates. When asked if CUS Brown had talked to him last year when another
inmate had been found coming down to his office from MSU, Mr. Berg stated no. I n m a t e " - '
the inmate from last year is presently out to court and refused to be' interviewed.
Mr. Berg was then questioned as to why he was no longer teaching the ASA course (information had been
received that he had been asked to leave) Mr. Berg stated that it was due to nothing he had done himself but
that he had gone to dinner with some instructors and students and that in the course of conversation he had
mentioned another student. Mr. Berg went on to say that the student thought he had been talking about her
and because they were changing things in ASA and had some new instructors M~. Kupers who manages the
program thought it would be better ifhe stepped down for awhile. This concluded the interview. other
allegations that needed to be.addressed were not known at this time and were not addressed.

women and described him as a man on the prowl. After dinner some or all the group went to a bar where
his flirting behavior continued. At some point in the evening most of the group left the bar except for Mr.
Berg and a female student. Some time after graduation that female name unknown said she shouldn't have
stayed at the bar, she was married and not thinking: Ms. Kupers when confronted with this information
told Mr. Berg it was not professional for an instructor tointeract with students during the time tli.ey are in

This statement is in regards to the investigation of Counselor Burg, who is an
inmate counselor for receiving. I

.came into the receiving unit

about the middle of October to the middle of November of 2002. Counselor Burg
was my counselor.
In this statement I was instructed to write upon my experiences with
Counselor Burg while in receiving. This statement is written in truth of all I can
recall.
Shortly after my arrival into receiving I was able to meet with my Counselor,
Burg, to discuss what was I assumed by me to be normal intake questions? The
first meeting went, if I remember correctly, without any incident. Shortly after this
initial visit he began calling for me to come down to "just hang out... ""to get out of
the Pod and talk about anything other than Prison." Things like that. Soon very .
soon what was small talk became questions from him about my career as a stripper
which turned into more questions about my sexuality and he would tell me about
. his "Ex-qirlfriend he had once that had a beautiful body" and that "strippers are wild
\

in bed, she was the best he ever had". He then began asking me about me and how
I "must be wild too... " and wanted to know things like "what was the wildest sex I
ever had... " or~lif I ever slept with my customers from work." He also wanted to
I

know if my "breasts were real .. ." and how he wished he could get away with taking

I

..

.

a look at them. He said, "if only there wete shades to pull down over the window we .
could get away with a lpt." He wanted to know if I "slept with men and women.. ."

.

aridif I was "planning to get a girlfriend,
while I .
was in," And of course he "wanted

details of rrie and my girlfriend if did get one."

At the time I was in receiving my E.R.D. date was for July of 2003. He told
me on more than one occasion that his Birthday was in July, I think he said the 13th
or something like that. Anyway he hinted about getting together after I got out so I
could give him a "birthday present, you know a special one, ..''''since I was an exstripper and all." Knowing what he meant I kind of laughed it off.
One of the main reasons I went along with his antics was because he was
my counselor. I mean, here I was in receiving not knowing how this placed worked
with moving out of the receiving unit or how much true power this Counselor had
towards my classification: I wasn't going to tick this guy off.
While I was in there I had a friend I've known previous to prison from my
County,

~kind of think of as my little sis' ,

, ' ou know looked out

for her. Well, Burq, like he did to me, would call her down to his office throughout
the day to ".t8J.k." '~ta young girl, a real sweetheart, but unfortunately she's
somewhat naive about some things, loved all the attention from boys she could get.
Burg seemed to dig right in on that part of her. She would tell me about their talks
and the stuff he would say or ask of her.

~asn't so quick in catching on towhat he was really up to. She told
me "how he. wanted to see her after she gets out from Pine Lodge". even gave her

'reo'

. .

the phone number to the institution and toldlto "pretend that she was a social
worker who n.eeded to t.alk toBurg ab?~t. . a case ... " COul.dn't ,2.elieve t.hiS guy was
playing with her like this.

KnOWing~s good.as I didllelt like he was

"preying on her" like he was playing with her head and her heart. Mostly because
she really believed all the crap he was tellin~i~~r:
The breaking point,for me was w h e . b l d me she gave Burg a ring she

had brought in from County to remerriber herbY,-Th~ ring she gave him she had
