A site that means something to me...
http://november.org/
I wanted to place myself on MySpace to give myself a voice and to have the opportunity to interact with people. I hope to meet some interesting people who I can learn from and in turn I can share my views. I believe my interaction with society is important because I am currently incarcerated in a Federal Prison.
The charge was possession of cocaine base under 50 grams. My sentence was 12 years of rehabilitation in a Federal Penitentiary. No trafficking of drugs, no guns, no violence. I didnt obstruct justice or try and fight the F.B.I. when I was taken into custody. I was polite with the agents and answered non-incriminating questions.
In return, the governments attorney threatened me with a life sentence if I attempted to exercise any of my rights. All I wanted was to plead guilty to what I had actually done wrong, not what I was accused of. So I was bullied into something I didn't want to do, plead guilty to a false charge. In my mind I thought the U.S. justice system was fair and if I didn't put up a fight and take responsibility of what I had done, I would receive a fair sentence, put my mistakes behind me and move on with my life.
Im sorry to say that wasnt the case. Im not angry and I will live through this mess I suppose. My only wish is that someone would have told me things about the drug war, the F.B.I. and our justice system. That is why I wanted this site.
I need to inform you about some of the cruelty and treachery of our system. Twelve years is a long time, it probably takes that long since there is no real form of rehabilitation offered. I'm sure my rehabilitation will look good on paper. I'll be signed up for many phony classes that only exist on paper and the funding will go somewhere. So here I am trying to do my own rehabilitation.
Here with you, at my site I can step away from the yelling, the violence, the gangs, the drugs and basic nonsense that keeps anyone from ever actually becoming a productive member of society.
I honestly dont expect to do all this time. Im an optimistic person that believes people are good. I hope one day I will be re-sentenced to the time I actually deserve for the crime I committed. Maybe by then I will a good enough person to be part of your society once again. Until then I will accept any advice if you choose to offer any.
