Re: Ask me about financial success to spending 2 years state prison
Chair,
chair,
I have been out for about 4 years. I do not keep in touch with any co-de's but there are some common friends, so we do gut updates from time to time. One guy, who was my "boy" in there, I speak to every few months. He was paroled 2 years ago, in for manslaughter.
The etiquette on discussing crimes was that it is somewhat open ground. Meaning that it is not uncommon to be asked "what are you in for". Most people do not get defensive or evasive when answering, otherwise they may be viewed as a sex offender hiding their charges. However, no matter what you say, word will get out as to what you did.
I was concerned as to how I would be viewed due to the nature of my crime. So when I first got in and people asked I just said " I was at the wrong place at the wrong time". As I started telling people the charge, I was then looked at some sort of novelty. Not too many white collar guys in state jail.
