I'm not real sure this guy has ever been in a prison. A county jail, maybe. But I think this guy watched too many episodes of Oz.

I decided to get onto horse after a few months, mostly as something to do.

Well, of course you did. I did LOfuckingL when I read that a bag of Reese's Pieces would get you an eight-ball. If that were even close to believable, there would be a line outside your local correctional facility, to get in.

Also suspect: He came up for parole three times in eighteen months??? coughbullshitcough

I saw 12 deaths inside. Three of them were at the hands of screws.

The prison that loses twelve inmates in eighteen months exists in maybe three places on Earth. A Russian gulag, a Mongolian labor camp, and Hollywood.

My only experience with violence (outside of just a plain old fist-fight) was when one of the guys in my pod put two RC Colas in a pillow case and clocked a guy that owed him five bucks from a card game. I guess the guy mighta been dead, I just thought he was out cold. He never moved after the hit, and he held his fists out in front of him like a turn-of-the-century boxer. He was like that when they wheeled him out, and I never saw or heard anything else about it.

Also, most guys wouldn't talk at length about any serious amount of time spent in a real prison. And some guys would, kinda like war stories. You just see/do/accept things that one would not see/do/accept anywhere else. What happens in prison/war(/Vegas) stays in prison/war(/Vegas).

All in all, I think this guy's filled with a fair amount of shit.
