Hi Keith! Thank you for the reply. I loved your letter. It is SO cool that you are in that documentary. Im going to have to watch it. It was interesting to read your stories in your reply also. I was also wondering if you would be able to help me with something. I am asking a few people on the betweenthebars.org some questions for a research project and was wondering if you would answer them if you felt like it. Here are the questions: What are ways that men deal with missing women in prison? Do you think men change not being around women? If so in what ways? How do you think this affects them when they are released? How do men deal with their "needs"? Do you think solitary confinement changes any of this or plays into this topic? Do you think men become more reserved or dont know how to deal with a womens "touch" when released from prison? ;) I just want to hear your input on this out of curiosity. Speak your mind. I would love to maybe see a blog post about this too. Thank you. Hope to hear back soon :)

I never thought I would bring myself to actually reaching out to you to ask you this question. WHY?!
I have never experienced such utter disgust & betrayal. YOU of all people. I'd like to think I would be able to forgive you someday but that seems impossible. -Nicole Marie

Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.

I'm so sorry to read your words and what you and your fellow inmates go through on a daily basis. No crime justifies what happens in there. We all know it happens. Some don't care and think you deserve whatever you get. Some care, but not enough. And the rest of us care but don't see any way to change the system. Power corrupts. As wardens abuse their power, police abuse their power, and politicians abuse theirs. There doesn't seem to be a solution. Those in charge are always taking advantage of someone, aren't they?
I hope you keep writing. Maybe someone in power will see your letters and decide to do something about it. There are always a few good apples spoiling their bunch.

My best to you.
