90. i m trying to get my ged, go to any college, go to harvard, b.c., wherever. do something better. because streets ain t really streets is not where it s at, you know? almost the same. yeah. that s a pretty good definition. the tutoring program is not large enough to accommodate everyone in the jail. so melissa allen has turned to another inmate, megan dooley, for help. with math. you add 6 to 18 and it gives you the next answer. it s great. i m not embarrassed when she helps me. i sit there and listen to her because i know shy ain t judging me and stuff. i treat people how i want them to treat me. math is one of my better skills. it comes easy to me. so something that she struggles with, that s easy for me, if i can help her with it, it s not going to hurt me to sit down for ten minutes and write out the multiplication tables. all i have here is time. why not use it for something constructive?
eyes, my hair, my dress, everywhere on the floor. i never seen no blood gush like that in my life. i must have cut a vein or something. never, ever put your hands on me. it wasn t the money, because i can care less about the money, because the money comes easy to me. it was the point, how he just came at me and grabbed me and then punched me, like i m a man. but he didn t really know that i can be a man. if convicted, melissa could face a sentence of three to five years. but she hopes the judge will view the assault as self-defense and give her a chance at drug rehabilitation rather than prison. while she is here, melissa s contact with corey has been limited to cards and letters. they have been approved for inmate to inmate correspondence within the jail. oh, this is from lisa. that boy, he got something wrong with him upstairs. ain t nobody perfect.
i don t believe i m taking medication for myself. i believe i m taking it for jimmy. jimmy is a [ bleep ] right now. you know? corey s brother william has also had a setback. while working his job detail, he was caught entering another inmate s cell. yes, sir, there is. he has now lost his chance to an early release to a halfway house. when he entered the other inmates cell, it was 3:00 in the morning. in the particular housing unit that inmate allen was in, those doors are not secured. they are not locked due to the nature of what kind of housing unit that is. they are not supposed to be going into another inmate s cell at that point. at the time when he was in that particular housing unit, he was on a detail that detail was the night detail, that s why he was awake at 3:00 in the morning. however, he chose to take advantage of the situation by entering someone else s cell at that time. inmate allen is typically not a disciplinary problem. i ve been here almost a year and a
medium security housing unit in 121. the officer heard scuffling coming from back of the unit. as the officer approached, he looked into his cell and found that inmate peppe was breathing heavily, bending down. he noticed that the other inmate was doing the same and had some scratch marks on him. there were they were able to write him up for fighting or some altercation. inmate peppe alleges that he was just spoking at another inmate with his cane and the inmate attacked him. he knocked me out of my chair and knocked my glasses off my face and he said that i hit him. i did not hit this man. i m 65 years old. my back hurts all the time. i m not rugged anymore. i don t want to fight no more. i just want to enjoy the rest of my life. i m a lover, not a fighter. because the fight allegedly took place inside a cell where there s no security camera coverage, jail officials cannot determine who started it. so both peppe and the other
