I DIDN'T GO STRAIGH FROM JUVENILE
TO PRISON, I WENT HOME AND...
COMMITTED ANOTHER OFFENSE
TO BRING ME HERE. SO...
I'M DEALING WITH IT.
I'M A MULTI-VIOLATOR.
I STARTED DOING
TIME IN 1959
AND I WENT STRAIGH TO A FEDERAL PEN.
THERE WAS NO YOUTH AUTHORITY
OR NONE OF THAT STUFF.
A GROUP OF GALS GOT A
HOLD OF ME AND SCHOOLED ME.
I LEARNED HOW
TO DO TIME.
I DID TIME UNTIL
I WAS 38 YEARS OLD.
AFTER ALL THE
TIME I WAS OUT, I STARTED USING AGAIN.
ENDED UP BACK
IN THE STREETS,
ENDED UP BACK
IN THE SYSTEM.
WHEN I CAME IN HERE,
I WAS GOING DOWN ON SOMEBODY FOR $5
AND I THOUGH HE GOT CHEATED.
THAT'S ABOUT HOW
I FELT ABOUT MYSELF.
I CAN PROMISE YOU,

BEGGING FOR HELP, AND

SIT THERE AND
BLOW THAT SMOKE UP THEIR ASS ?
DON'T TRY THAT SHIT.
I DON'T THINK NOTHING.

I'M NOT LIKE THESE
OTHER FEMALES IN HERE.
LET'S MAKE THIS
GAME INTERESTING.
LET'S STAR A KITTY.

I'M DEALING WITH IT.
I'M A MULTI-VIOLATOR.
I STARTED DOING

AND I WENT STRAIGH TO A FEDERAL PEN.
THERE WAS NO YOUTH AUTHORITY
OR NONE OF THAT STUFF.
A GROUP OF GALS GOT A
HOLD OF ME AND SCHOOLED ME.
I LEARNED HOW
TO DO TIME.
I DID TIME UNTIL
I WAS 38 YEARS OLD.
AFTER ALL THE
TIME I WAS OUT, I STARTED USING AGAIN.
ENDED UP BACK
IN THE STREETS,
ENDED UP BACK
IN THE SYSTEM.
WHEN I CAME IN HERE,
I WAS GOING DOWN ON SOMEBODY FOR $5
AND I THOUGH HE GOT CHEATED.
