Hi Christopher Just saw your episode on MSNBC earlier this evening. What struck me most was when you said people take things for granted and how you appreciated the simple things...a glass of cold ice water and a sliver of a window where you could see the sky, moon and stars after being in solitary confinement for ten years. I wondered while watching what one would do daily in that situation. I myself know I'd go crazy. I respected your ability to maintain your head and still come out a positive strong person. People on the outside do care for people such as yourself. Everyone makes mistakes...some more than others and many are lucky never to get caught. I think your sentence is extreme and I just and hope you are able to appeal or get it overturned. People in prison need to be rehabilitated and built up....not treated like numbers or animals. Showing respect and educating ... Positive reinforcement is the only way. Keep your head up Mr. Trotter and I pray your life turns out as it should.
Between the Bars System Administrator here, writing just to clarify the previous comment. Between the Bars hasn't blocked anyone from anything; I'd guess iThinkB4uAct1981 was just making a joke or snide response by saying so, and signed as “System Administrator" as part of the joke. I'm sorry if this kills the humour; but I wanted to reiterate that we haven't blocked anyone here, and there's no need to write us to find out why. Sometimes Internet-based humour like that gets lost in the translation to paper.
The cover art is beautiful. Thank you for your words. I just found this sight so I can't answer your questions, but I see links to other posts from you at the bottom of this page, so at least some have gotten through.

Can you explain to me what story I could tell about you?
Many thanks.
