Thank you for the comments I'm so glad that you like my Posts. Since you like this story you will need to read mine. I have Pontel Plato's etc. along with the Pelican Boy Reports. Everyone seems to like all the Pelican Boy stories. It was the worst 13 years of my life but it was interesting. I worried a lot there. That is a real California Prison. The joint I'm at now is nothing like "PBSP" Pelican Bay State Prison. That was a level 4 maximum security prison and this is a level 3 mellow joint. It's a real old prison and it's still run this way today. In a way that's a bad thing due to it being 2013. They need to update everything. They do have computers but it's still run like it was back in the 1950's. The old prisons in California are San Quenton, C.M.E. Old Folsen, Solidod, Tracy, I think that's the old ones. You mentioned the 3 strikes law to me I am in here under the 2nd strike law which means that I was in prison and get 1 strike then this one that I'm in now is my 2nd prison term, 2nd strike. My 2nd strike doubled this sentence that the judge gave me. The 3rd strike will give you 25 to life.

My problem is this - I was convicted of a 192 and a few other charges so the judge used the 2nd strike on me which means double your sentence so I got 5o years to life for the murder and the other charges he doubled them as well. I have 68 years to life. I can't do it Alex. By the way Alexandria is a very beautiful name. I have done 19 years so far. My parole date is 2054 and my birthday is Feb 28th, I will be 43. The judge really fucked me over. He wasn't by California law [?] to double both of my sentences but they do what they want when all you have representing you in court is a public defender. They hung me out to dry. But the bright point of this if there is one is the laws in Ca are starting to change and if I'm lucky I will get my sentence reduced. Who knows maybe I'll get to be with my family again someday. In Ca they make you do at least 30 years on a 25 to life term so I need to get that first strike taken off it, I even want to get out. Without a panel attorney I doubt I will even see the streets again. I have missed everything out there. If you need some of my posts you will see that I've never experienced much in my life. I've been locked up most of it.

I have never been married, no children, never a driver's license, never has a ticket, never owned my own car. There is much more I have never experienced "shit." I am street smart, wise about prison life. I know all about prison due to the prisons I've done time at. I have over 20 total years in. If you have any questions about the joint get at me. As far as relationships I've had lots of girlfriends but like I said I've been locked up 20 years of the 42 that I've been alive. I have been single for 19 years now. It's hard to find a good woman when you're doing life. There are a lot of females who see my photo and I would guess they would want to get to know me but would they really want to fall in love with a man who don't get family visits. Think about it like this if a female hooked up with me she would always know where I was at. I couldn't cheat on her I wouldn't anyway. She would get all the attention she could ever want through the mail and visits she would have her life on the streets I would never know what she was doing. In a way it would be perfect for her. She would have me in here and doing what she wanted out there without me knowing. I would never want my girlfriend out there doing who she wanted but how would I stop her. Honestly a woman has to get laid and I'm a lifer so they won't allow me to be alone with my girlfriend. I couldn't expect her to not get laid.

With that being said now you know why I have been single for 19 years. Am I lonely? Yes of course I am but I can' do anything about it so I just stay single 'till some female reads my blog and decides that she wants me in her life. I will not try to find an old lady through this blog but maybe I'll get lucky and find the right lady for me. 'Till that day comes I will spend most of my time in the prison law library trying to file to the courts to get a new trial on a sentence reduction. The laws are changing in California, the prison system is over-crowded and after 19 years I see some light at the end of the tunnel for me. As soon as I can hire an attorney to represent me I will get a parole date. Right now I have a life sentence 68 years to life but if I get an attorney he or she can get me out that's a fact. But getting an attorney costs $ and I don't have any. So for now I will stay in this hell hole. The courts made enough mistakes that a good attorney could get me out but like I said I need an attorney to take a look at my case. If I ever want to see the streets again I will have to use this blog to get an attorney. It's going to be hard but I won't ever give up. I have hope that someone will help me.

It's crazy to think that all that is keeping me in here is the fact that I don't have the $ to hire an attorney. $ is keeping me from getting out of this cage. I pray that someday someone will read my blog and want to help me figure out a way to hire an attorney. First I need to set up a PayPal plan and raise the funds to hire the attorney. There is so much $ spent blown on bullshit out there and to think that $ could get me out. It's very frustrating sometimes. I can paint paintings, draw cards, thing like that are the $ to hire a good attorney. I thought by now that I would meet a female that has an attorney in her family and could help that way so far no luck. I make $12 a month working here and after restitution I get $5.40 to live on I can't even live on that. I can't even buy a jar of coffee with that. Someday I'm going to write about my case my trial so people can see for themselves that I didn't kill anyone. The problem is I have been told to never talk about my case on my blog due to anyone in the world can read it so I won't. I'm learning a little bit about the law and I will file paperwork to the courts to get my sentence reduced. But I'm a convict not an attorney how can I get myself a parole date? My family don't have the $ to hire me an attorney or I would have gotten out by now.

I have a great family who love me and want me home but we just don't have the $ to make it happen. It's sad and I hate it when they cry over me being here. Anyway the 3 strike law is what doubled my sentence and I have to get 1 of my strikes taken off then I'll have {?} at getting out. If I can get this 1 strike taken off then my sentence could be 25 years to life. I got 19 years in so I'll have a real real chance at going home. If you read my blog comments a lot of people are starting to write to me. Just think maybe an attorney will write me on my blog and want to help me. It could happen. Someone who is rich may write me and say Hey Donnie I hired you an attorney he is coming to visit you. Someone may take a chance on me. I'm not ever going to give up. I will get out again. I just don't want to be in here so long that I'm old and can't make it out there ya know. I am an optomotrist I have skills. It's almost [?] time so I need to get this in the mail. Alexandria thank you from the bottom of my heart for the comments on my blog. I would like to talk to you more.

Take care

Donnie
