Since when is it a crime to throw ham? Is this Sharia law or something? I don't even think it should be considered a hate crime. While Jews can't eat Pork products it is not a crime to see or touch it... So what is the harm?

Wait for muslim football players (american football that is) to demand that pigskin footballs be banned.

I just consulted an 'ask allah' site which indicates that INDEED it is prohibited for a pious muslim to contact pork...

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Bumhamud and upon all his Family and Companions.
Scholars of Islam (Ulamah) state that touching impurities directly is unlawful except for a necessity. No doubt that pork is impure. Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): Say (O Muhammad SAW): "I find not in that which has been inspired to me anything forbidden to be eaten by one who wishes to eat it, unless it be Maytatah (a dead animal) or blood poured forth (by slaughtering or the like), or the flesh of swine (pork, etc.) for that surely is impure, or impious (unlawful) meat (of an animal) which is slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allâh (or has been slaughtered for idols, etc., or on which Allâh's Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering). But whosoever is forced by necessity without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits, (for him) certainly, your Lord is OftForgiving, Most Merciful."(6:145)
So, it is forbidden for this inmate to touch pork or cook it.
Allah knows best.
It is sad that they call Ritual Impurity by the same name as we do (Taharah)... So much of their beliefs are rooted in the Torah (with much perversion)...
