Got sucked in what an amazing story. That dude should def write a book or some kind of chicken soup for the inmate/convicts soul. I didn't mean to spend the 30mins or so I did reading this but time flew. Thx to OP for posting this.

Amazing read. Long but very worth it. I knew prison is bad, but damn...

I feel really bad for people that go in for trivial/harmless shit now.

Caught me more than any book ever has. For the OP this might just be another ex-cons story, but I think that what most of us thinks is true; This story is simply amazing exactly because he has told it so truthfully and telling is as his own 100%. Thanks for expanding my view to the broader of perspective!

I must say, I was specifically caught at the part with the guy getting stabbed with a shaped down toothbrush and having his inmate pulled out. Horrificly amazing discription...

This guy is full of shit. He kind of betrays himself when he talks about drugs too. I'm 99% sure he did lots of them but it just sounds like he's making tons of this shit up just to make himself look interesting.

You know what they say about junkies, they're usually pretty talented at manipulating people.The kind of way he explains everything in an interesting fashion, almost proves to me that this guy really is a manipulator.

I've met people like that before, they ll deviate the reality of things they have experienced and amplify it to make themselves interesting but at some point you just get tired of all the shit they come up with.

I dunno what you guys find interesting about this junkie's story but it's a bit troubling to see just how many of you are buying into this shit.

Impressive read. I was an idea about prisons because documentaries but tell a 2 years story by is own words is just crazy and really deep.
The criminals that thing they are strong "G´s" and "Thugs" should read this.

His life never gonna be the same.

Because you find interesting dont mean you fell pity for him. I dont care about him really.
He do a crime with Armed Robbery he put other lifes in danger so he got his punishment.

Btw i dont know the USA prisons very well but i think you just spend 23 hours in lock down you did it something bad or disrespect the rules. Special if you are in a medium/maximal security prison.

All these comments here act like it´s so sad that he has been through all that. But in reality, he got what he deserved, probably even alot if everything what he says is true. Prison should be hard else there is no point in being in prison.

Alot of the people in there hurt other innocent people, including him. So how would it be fair to the victims if they would go to some kind of vacation resort.

That was incredibly eye-opening. You always hear about how much nice American prisons are, and how taxes are being wasted providing luxuries for convicts who don't deserve it, and how prisons in other countries are so much worse but... Wow, I really had no idea. This guy needs to write a book, I would read it.

Prison isn't about retaliation because retaliation serves no purpose. Prison is about keeping citizens safe by minimizing future crime.

When i see huge wall of text in the forums, i usually just say to myself, fuck it, i wont be reading that much of a text..


But this time, i read the whole post and god sake it was amazing. Many has said it already, but it was interesting to read and really eye-opening.


If the thread's poster is still following the forum/thread wherever it is from, could you update the rest of the Q&A if some appears? Thanks alot!

Just spent a lot of time reading this, even reading some parts twice, to really understand what this man is saying, I don't know what to really say about this, other than it's an excellent thread, and should definately be read by more =)
If there's a book I'll buy it

Maybe read the entire story? Fucktards like you piss me off. He never claimed he didn't do drugs, just that he didn't do drugs with his friend, because he was an ex-meth user.
+ Show Spoiler [if you had really read the OP] +

6. The Drugs

After a while, drugs become a viable option inside. There is a lot on offer. If you can get it out in the world, you can get it inside - for a better price strangely enough, considering the difficulty of getting it in. That is if it is what your man says it is. I decided to get onto horse after a few months, mostly as something to do. I'd tried heroin outside, but hadn't liked it since getting on the nod seemed like a waste of time. But inside, it's great - a shot in solitary can make a week pass in no time at all. Problem is the shit it will be cut with. Flour, baking soda, jell-o crystals - all shit that should not be in a vein. After a while, you just end up doing things that outside, you never would have dreamed of. I was paranoid about getting the AIDS, so I kept this one needle the whole time I was inside. Went rusty and I ended up spending a month in sick bay with tetenus. When I couldn't score for junk, I scored for codeine tablets. Grew my thumb nail long and wrecked it on the concrete so it was sharp enough to cut open my thigh, and would stick the crushed up tablet inside.


Also "MET" people like that? All you did was read a storyskim a paragraph from him

The kind of way he explains everything in an interesting fashion, almost proves to me that this guy really is a manipulator.

just gonna quote this for the lulz
