beer bottle, swung it on the ground, busted it in the parking lot. i said, oh, lord, lord! i thought he was going to have me locked up first day i met him. lord, have mercy. after that, we get along like brothers or something. houck and birkett both have mixed feelings about houck s pending release and whether his tim per and impulsive behavior will lead him back to prison. hopefully won t come back. i don t know. sound like one day he says he ll do good, talking about partying, girls. i think he ll be all right. he s too young. yeah. coming up anybody out there listening has ever done what i ve done, then they already know the intense rush that this is. how one inmate s rush leads to a 55-year sentence. and jeffrey flanders gives his side of the controversial murder
