Re: The last paragraph of your letter. You wrote: “ I need to get back to work, collecting statements in memorium for people who knew ‘Whispers’. So far despite enthusiasm to talk about him, getting anyone to put it on paper is like herding cats. ‘
Again using this man’s untimely death as fodder for your narcissistic ramblings. Your ‘epitaph’ to him was insulting. Horribly insulting. You insulted this man in his death and inappropriately in the manner of it. You cooed and squirmed with delight at the manner I took offence to this. Even trying to compare yourself to Oscar Wilde and other famous wits? You are none of these people. And you never will be. Here’s a tip, from someone who writes for a living. In an ‘epitaph’ YOU NEVER INSULT THE DECEASED.
THIS MAN HAS FIVE CHILDREN,HE HAS FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO READ THIS AND OTHERS BLOGS. FOUR CHILDREN NOW WHO HAVE LOST A FATHER. THEY WILL PROBABLY REREAD HIS BLOGS OVER THE YEARS, HIS GRANDKIDS TOO. PROBABLY HIS GREAT GRANDKID KIDS IF BTB EXIST IN THE FUTURE.
And they will read your ‘epitaph’, your spiteful, toxic, bitchy, poisonous laced diatribe of someone you once spent time with in jail. Maybe he didn’t like you. But hey, when he’s dead, you get to knock him , because you didn’t have the guts to do it when he was alive. And you did knock him didn’t you? Gave his character a good slap, slapped his efforts too, put him on the ground so anyone following his blog could see some conflated person you lied about, just in case they liked him, or thought what he wrote was good. Did you read Father John’s response to you? No, you haven’t have you? Get one of your friends to forward that. You screwed up Hubert. In a very nasty way. Save your ire for the cops you caught you. Leave people alone. Especially those who grieve. Leave his remaining children, friends and families, memory of their dad and friend alone. Better still, remove the ‘epitaph’. Leave his memory alone, it doesn’t belong to you. Tenzin
I am Alberto from Italy. I was very sorry to hear about the bad condition of Texas’s inmates. As you correctly say there should be a change in the way politicians deal with inmates. It's not fair that so many people lose their lives in prisons that are still under the slavery system. Living in another country and continent, I think I can do very little to change this problem. As a Christian I can pray for you. If there is a petition I can sign, I would gladly sign it. Regards. Alberto from Italy
What’s up Jessie? I use to be an officer at unit 32 at Parchman. I always thought you was a good guy despite your decisions. Back in 03 i rooted for a lot of guys to get out of prison and become better role models for younger people.You were one of the guys I rooted for before the three officer incident. I hated the way they did you man, I felt sorry for you. I even asked you why? All officers are different in some aspects and some can be harsh I agree with you on that! I just wanted to treat y’all like men regardless of race and go home to my family. I never looked down on any of you. I was rooting for change on y’all behalf. I’m hoping you enjoy your day keep your head up inspite of the circumstances . The reason I looked you upis because I was in Milwaukee watching and they told the story on national tv about the guy that killed 3 of his own family members in Mississippi and was later killed by another cell mate. I still think you’re good man.
Hi Dymitri! I hope this message finds you well, I am grateful that I was able to transcribe your comment reply and I wish you the best on your journey.
That's a very nice statement, Dymitri. I agree completely. B (my spouse) and I became vegetarians after watching a couple of documentaries on how the meat factories really do treat chickens, pigs and cattle. We didn't feel our decision not to eat these animals would help them, but we just didn't want anything to do with it. We still do eat fish. They swim around and live normal fishy lives until they are caught. That doesn't seem so bad. Anyhow I admire your courage in stating what may be an unpopular view. Jay
