broom. getting ready to clean my cell. the broom had too much straw on it, right. so i asked him, can i get another brook. he told me not. i broke the broom. you broke the broom? why? i just told you. no reason to break the broom. the whole situation started because you broke the broom. i needed to clean up. okay, but you could have waited until somebody came back tomorrow. you asked to see me this morning. you could have asked to see me yesterday morning in your cell and told me the same thing that you told me. and even if the broom wasn t working properly, if it was the sorry broom, they gave you the sorry broom, that s still no reason for you to break the broom. yes or no? a few minutes later, the conversation turns to broadhead s disciplinary record at holman. i ain t got but 35 disciplinary. i did all of them. but 39 disciplinary. all in all, just another monday morning for a ward that s always walking the line between friend and foe.
