terry is a maximum security transgender inmate living on a yard. i m in prison for prostitution with hiv/aids relations because i tested positive on one of my arrest cases. this building is medical, but it s for hiv, and it s been open for integration with non-hiv inmates on the yard. we first met terry while shooting the lockup: return to corcoran episode in 2005. you re surviving here because you re going to get a job when you get out, you re going to reform yourself, or you re going to stay in the same pattern and you don t get out. in the three years since, terry s been involved in many fights with cellmates. it takes a stronger person on
i talked did my home boy i went to school with. he s just a friend. he could are more but i don t see it. he knows me when i was straight. and i went to school with him. he used to date my sister. if the prison approve as a transfer, he hopes it can keep him from being locked up. if staff allows it in this building for us to have a non-hiv cellmate, we have to get along, be compatible within the unit without being a program. came over here due to the simple fact that terry was having little issues. getting into little fights and all that. because of the transition he was going to. a lot of people can t don t accept it. we all grew up in compton. terry turned out kind of funny, but he was rough. he was out there fighting with us.
the yard to be my cellie because of who i am. just days before this interview, terry had another fight. i had a fight in my cell with my cellmate because i was tired of living with him. for like seven months, it s like being forced into a relationship that you don t want, so when i moved out, he attacked me in the kitchen, and i seen tears and i seen frustration, but i didn t care. i mean, he stabbed me with a cigarette which they make here homemade. he i mean, pulled out all my hair, it grew back since, you know what i m saying, but i m dealing with that. if terry retaliates she runs the risk of going to the shu and possibly lengthening her sentence. with a parole date in sight, she s opting to remove herself from the situation. i feel like i m a little bit better now than just to be everybody s piece of meat. so i try to pick a cellie that i can get along with.
so what i m trying to do, i said, i m compatible. put us in a cell together. i understand all the things we went through. he can talk to me. some people accept me, some don t. we real close. i wouldn t let nothing happen to terry. i wouldn t let nothing happen to terry. my friends, the ones i m close with that i know from the streets, they know me and terry are homies. we just friends, that s as far as it goes. you re the homey, man, you know you re the homey. i would like be known as more than a homey or a friend. someone who is sincere and nice, that can be there to talk to them, you know, just as a person, instead of the situation as it was. talk about putting somebody on the spot. what? talk about putting somebody on the spot. wow. with terry s future possibly hanging in the balance, terry and clarence will have to wait to find out if their request to live together is granted.
