Not long after I got to Folsom an inmate lost a hand in one of the license plate 150ton press's. Terrible, horrendous accident. It was written up as an industrial accident. As a prison industry worker, he was eligible for workers comp upon release from prison. It wasn't until several years later, when one of the main shot callers for the 'Arian Brotherhood' prison gang 'rolled-over' on them, that we found out that he & another inmate held his arm in the machine & pushed the button. The victim never said a word......That's Folsom.......

I landed in the Navy's version of a federal pen for "10 days hard labor"....guess what got me there...."suspicion of use of marijuana". The guy that cut my hair there was a convicted mass killer (killed his whole family), the guy that worked the scullery with me counting knives and forks was in for sabotaging a Naval ship. For me there was nothing more rehabilitating than the sound of my cell door closing behind me.

About five years ago I got tossed into jail for a very brief period of time in Webster Texas. The fuckin' cop saw my out-of-state plates and pulled me over. He told me he pulled me over because I didn't have my seat-belt on (I had it on), and when I gave him the wrong insurance card (it was my other car's card), I ended up going to their jail and stripped down and got a cavity check. $1,500 later I was out. Several years later, a hurricane hit Webster Texas and for me is was Karma in action.

Those animals would eat my alive in prison. I guess I better start carrying around a gun so I can cap myself in the head if they try to arrest me.

There was one inmate on my work crew with a glass eye. He had gotten into a gunfight with a police officer & lost. He shot at the cop & missed, the cop returned fire & didn't!......Hit him in the right eye.........thus his nickname "Dead Eye"....and a play on his marksmanship.......inmates can be so cruel!......!:-P

Why don't the separate the non-violent inmates from the violent ones? Are they just that sadistic?

That's what "Classfication" is for. Each inmate goes thru a classification process upon entry. Depending on crimes & record, they get a level of custody classification. Each prison has it's own classification.....There are entire prisons classified as "Special Needs" prisons = PC,Protective custody, full of child molesters & snitches mostly......Folsom was level #4 when I got there....Level #3 when I left...Most of the #4 inmates that worked in the factory had served enough 'good time' to be reduced to level #3, so they kept their jobs & didn't have to move when it got down graded....

I'm here to let some PP know that "lease bit" and "least bit" are two totally different things...mainly, only one exists.

Other than that, these stories are weak.

That's always interested my from a psychologist and moral philosopher point of view.
We I killed a guy for $5, shot 4 innocent kids on the street and raped 3 women before I murdered them too but not before robbing 7 convenience stores, but I have the moral obligation to kill that guy for his horrible crimes. I may have done all this horrible stuff, but at least I never gave an under aged boy a bj.
The power of rationalization is astounding.

Maybe I just don't get it, but people that commit violent crimes must have their sense of right and wrong, empathy, etc. all screwed up to think that they are a better person than a child molester... which more often than not has developmental issues and possibly mental/emotional problems. Why violent criminals are often sociopaths.

Shortly after arriving at a prison each new inmate is expected to make a showing out on the main yard, & "Represent" themselves to the rest. For most is like a 'homecoming' meeting up with old crimies & gang members. Especially if your not well know, you need to establish to the prison hiarche , who just stepped on their terf. You may have to show your arrest records or supply some evidence of just who you are. If you stay in your cell and don't show up on the yard after a few days, you've already started out on the wrong foot.........life at Folsom......
