Having spent a collective 30+ years in prison, I’ve grown accustomed to the hatred, violence, racism, anger, negativity, and ruthlessness that prison has to offer.
I am no stranger to a world filled with anger and violence, having afflicted permanent brain damage onto one man, taking the lives of two other men, and committing a brutal penitentiary stabbing myself.
Over the past 20 years, I have involved myself in numerous programs with one goal in mind: to make myself a better person so that I will never harm another human being as long as I live.
