How do I understand this better?Do you take drugs or so?I should read other notes to see what happened with your friend? It seems hard to maintain a friendship in a prison? Anyway,I guess you can explain me better in a letter,eh.Still doing your writing job?I saw your new picture; did you loose a little weight?Or were you always that thin perhaps?

I came across these writings and wanted to let you know that you guys (HRP) are not forgotten! I used to go by "Raper" (later "Bobby Stain")in the early 80's, hung out with Shooter & Twotone, and Gore abit back then (83-85). Was one of the original Sinners Squat members down in Wilshire Dist back then with Buttons and Wank Stain. I heard some years ago Shooter passed and was broken over it... If you want to get a hold of me Ill leave my email, or you can message via a third party on FB (under Matt Kogler). I would love to see an old pic of Shooter, Gore, Twotone and yourself if you can get one posted, benn many years. customtat71@gmail.com ~ MK
I'm so sorry that I gave you contact information to organizations that couldn't help you. I will try to pass on your story to other people who I think may can. And I will try to keep looking online for other places on your behalf.
I'm grateful that you remain strong and continue to speak up for yourself. Happy holidays.
Hope you've been well--settling in for another winter at Stanley.
Sending a note complimenting you on your phone service blog. I printed it out and will send to both Warden Reed Richardson and Kevin Carr....if that's ok with you? You spelled out the facts...and I want to reiterate that you're right and we're all being punished with the new system.
I'm working on projects by taking baby steps. I'm meeting with a retired judge in St. Croix County and we're working on a flyer that can be given to individuals and his or her family when they're faced with first time incarceration. Once experiencing the system, you learn what to do and not do...and how to do things. When John was taken from the courtroom by the bailiff....I was in shock, totally traumatized and didn't know anything about the system. I'd been in courtrooms many times--I started my working career as a newspaper reporter and had good relationships with all levels of law enforcement and the judicial system. But being on the receiving end of incarceration...I was totally lost.
In looking at surrounding counties and talking to staff--it doesn't appear that any jail has the product we're proposing. Talking to county jail personnel and looking at programs for county incarceration--it appears from the outside that Dunn and Eau Claire Counties have the most programs trying to benefit and help inmates. Knowing that what's on the annual report and knowing what actually happens at Stanley can be 2 different things--I'll be wary of claims until I see them in action.
Keep up the good work....I enjoy your wordsmithing and insight.
Part two of two. You are bang on about early rap. I wasn’t much a fan of Tupac, he wasn’t speaking to me, lyrically. Being a white girl and all that. It beggars belief that these artists can be talked into getting into beefs with each other, and then become murderous with rage. Imagine what Biggie, Tupac, Jam Master J and especially Nipsey Hustle would have produced, had they not died early, and that their killers remain unpunished? If their white equivalent artists have died, police would have been all over that, The US police force doesn’t seem troubled when black kids die. Jay Z, though, he was in the drug game, so he used those skills he used to sell drugs and recreated them into product management and delivery. Good for him, but The Black Album, was my favourite, now he is selling his headphones, but Tidal, his music platform didn’t go down so well. I am loving Kendrick Lamar, he is a true genius, All the Stars Above Us, is my favourite track. He keeps his nose clean, stays away from the media, and doesn’t get caught up in stupidness. Kanye, currently castrated by the Kardashian clan seems to be caught up in the brand building and the Sunday Service, which I like, but, clearly some mental issues there. Shame he lost his mum, she seems to be the good force in his life. There is an incredible rock group called Unlocking the Truth. Three black kids from Brooklyn they play heavy metal and they are incredible. They were discovered playing in the Times Square area and signed up, See if you can find them, I don’t know if you have seen the series ‘ATLANTA’ with Donald Glover and Lakeith Stansfield. It is brilliant. Donald Glover did the music video ‘This is America’. So yesterday was Thanksgiving,so they serve a thanksgiving dinner in jail? What is the food in general like? When I went to the states I had a Twinkie. I had heard a lot about twinkies from American programmes, but when I tasted it it was disgusting. It tasted like a month old cake with fake cream in it. I want to try corn break, biscuits that you have for breakfasts, not the biscuits we have in the U.K., which you have with tea. I recently tried jolly ranchers, they were quite nice. I love spicy food, curries that sort of thing, Mexican food also, something I would like to try, Regarding my ‘young energy’, I don’t think we age in our heads. I still feel like the idiotic 16 year old I was. But I am in retirement now, and official an ‘old gal’. My husband still travels about, he has family in Pakistan so he visits them annually. I have never been there, nor do I want to go there. Travel wise it’s over for me. I enjoy England climate, don’t like the heat. Is it very hot where you are, do you get a winter of sorts? A guy `I was reading about who spent time in Arizona’s jail system said that the inmates used to just wear underwear because it was so hot, and there were lots of cockroaches running about. What’s your jail like? That’s it for now. Be good. Take care of yourself T
I hope your trust has not been taken advantage from.
x and warm hug from Rita!
