Henry, sorry for not writing in so long |
| [00:24.870] |
But Things have been less than great here lately |
| [00:28.550] |
I think I’ve been depressed, maybe a little in shock |
| [00:31.480] |
I don’t know if you’ve heard |
| [00:33.040] |
But they’ve moved me to another prison |
| [00:34.540] |
This one is a super maximum security unit |
| [00:36.410] |
|
| [00:37.470] |
First, the state police came rushing in on us at 2 o’clock in the morning |
| [00:41.590] |
With m16 assault rifles and attack dogs |
| [00:43.340] |
|
| [00:44.270] |
They got everyone out of bed |
| [00:46.020] |
Chained us all up and brought us here |
| [00:48.080] |
|
| [00:48.700] |
This is the same prison where Jason and Jesse are |
| [00:51.140] |
But we’re in different parts |
| [00:53.010] |
Here, I’m in complete and total isolation 24 hours a day |
| [00:56.880] |
I’m in a concrete room with a solid steel door |
| [00:59.810] |
There’s a drain in the floor |
| [01:01.810] |
And a water spout in the wall |
| [01:03.120] |
That’s how you wash or take a shower |
| [01:04.870] |
You never even get to go out into the sun here |
| [01:07.920] |
Not to mention, they had a huge budget cut |
| [01:10.480] |
So the first thing they sliced was the food |
| [01:12.600] |
|
| [01:13.290] |
I’m not even allowed to have an ink pen |
| [01:16.100] |
I’m writing with a filler tube from inside a pen |
| [01:18.470] |
Which is why my handwriting’s atrocious |
| [01:20.650] |
I haven’t really felt depressed in the truest sense of the word |
| [01:24.470] |
But all I’ve done is lie in bed sleeping day and night |
| [01:27.530] |
Now, I’m adjusting |
| [01:28.660] |
You can adapt to almost anything given enough time |
| [01:31.780] |
|
| [01:33.030] |
Two days ago my appeal was denied |
| [01:34.460] |
Shot down by the Arkanas Supreme Court |
| [01:38.520] |
Everyone has always told me to expect it |
| [01:40.450] |
And if any help comes, it will be from the Federal Court |
| [01:44.690] |
But when I saw this decision in the news |
| [01:46.820] |
I still had the feeling in my stomach that I was falling |
| [01:49.250] |
|
| [01:50.060] |
I’m getting scared Henry |
| [01:52.000] |
I can’t tell anyone else that |
| [01:54.060] |
Cos everyone here wants me to be fearless and to have no doubts |
| [01:57.860] |
Not all bad news though |
| [01:59.730] |
|
| [02:00.360] |
I’ll be seeing my son Seth soon |
| [02:02.790] |
He’ll be coming for a week-long visit at the 1st of January |
| [02:05.350] |
He just turned ten years old |
| [02:07.530] |
|
| [02:08.090] |
And is still hard to believe |
| [02:09.850] |
Especially when I hear him call me Dad |
| [02:11.900] |
|
| [02:12.900] |
I haven’t got used to that |
| [02:15.020] |
I’m really looking forward to it though |
| [02:17.080] |
|
| [02:17.710] |
I’ll close for now but will be in touch soon |
| [02:20.330] |
|
| [02:20.830] |
Lorri and Jay are discussing what strategy to use from here |
| [02:23.630] |
|
| [02:24.200] |
I’ll keep you posted |
| [02:25.440] |
