  • In your country there is an horrible amount of innocent people wrongfully convicted, even in the death row. Here in Italy, maybe we are too soft, but in U.S. many people are unfairly imprisoned.

  • I used to work at Avenal State Prison.

  • In which Yard?

  • Facility II. Did you work there, too?

  • No, I have a friend in there, who was unfairly locked up. He is still there. I made some videos about his case. His name is Carlo Parlanti.

  • Did you ever get gassed? punk ass pig!

  • Do you have any problems? I think so.

    be respectful.

  • @08guitar yeh i know

  • @scumgod13 shouldnt smoke crack maybe

  • this freaken peace me off how they only show's how much hispanic and black that are behind bars but dont tell you how many whites that are behind bar this is a races country we living in number 1 in the world

  • Thanks for that as I thought I was pretty fair minded. I apologize for the rude "reply" as I was nearly certain it was in error—and it was.

  • I didn't really think you were in for that as I was merely giving you as much courtesy and respect that you gave me. Scroll up and reread the nasty message you shot my way.

    Viz. drugs, if it was up to me, Americans would have the freedom to snort, smoke or inject themselves with anything they like as that's part of living in a free country

  • Although rethinking my initial comment to you, by me putting you in a class with COs and Police that wronged me is no different than racism or sexism. I am sorry for this, I don't know you or your methods.

  • Ha, thats Pigtypical try to lay the worst crime on me possible. No, I spat on Kiddie Fiddlers, I was in for something that shouldn't even be illegal Drugs. Not even selling, just got got a few time with Possession of crack, possesion of cocain. So, I was indeed a prisoner of circumstance as it should be our choice as to what chemicals we put in our body.

  • No, I used to enjoy Chemical Agents In-service Training classes, but when did you get out for child molestation?

  • Oh lots of them, many stemming from Abuse I suffered at the hands of police and Guards!
