Not a prisoner, but former corrections officer. One of my first days on the floor, an inmate received news that his oldest child had taken his own life. The other officers just said to ignore him while he was pressing the late night button to get someone, anyone really, to talk to him or give him the mental health form. Going against my Lt, I grabbed a form and went in the pod where I talked to him before giving him the form. I also noted in our systems that a cellmate was recommended. The next time I went into that pod, he thanked me for showing a bit of compassion even though he was in there as an inmate
I want to thank you too. I've never been to jail, but if I were locked in a cage at one of the most horrible moments of my life personally, I'd want to know someone still saw me and cared about me. Thank you for being a good human even in a really tough place.
@believeroftheword4627 My thought process was that even if they did something against the law, they were still humans at the end of the day. Sometimes compassion being shown to someone in a situation where they end up in prison could maybe help them turn their life around when they get out.
I don't know what's worse: That kids as young as 10 can go to juvenile detention in the US or that not even they receive proper care or protection to prevent abuse and trauma WHILE THEY'RE THERE.

Saddest thing I saw.. multiple times, was guards in groups beat inmates inside their cells relentlessly, then allow them no medical attention. I, myself, was beaten by Rafael Moreno in tarrant county jail. He broke my ribs, my cheekbone and gave me nerve and brain damage. I was left coughing up blood in my cell. They didn't stop there. They took everything out of my cell including my mattress. I had to sleep sitting up on concrete as it was far too painful to lay down in any position on the hard concrete. My ribs were broken on the left side and trying to lay down popped a rib out of place on my right side. They then did not feed me for five days and turned my water off for three days. Last week, Moreno was indicted for murdering an inmate by kneeling on an inmate who'd been pepper sprayed and the combination of that and his 300lbs caused the inmate to die from asphyxiation. One internet search will bring it up first result. Tarrant County Jail is corrupt and wicked. They have two entire floors they specifically place inmates in so that they can be abused horribly by guards.
Oh man that sounds absolutely horrible, I'm a major trauma/neurosurgery nurse and broken ribs are one of the most painful injuries. If you don't mind sharing and know why the hell did he do it to you? Hope you are better now (including mentally).
I never asked him why he did it. The guards seemed to pick people at random. They beat up one guy we already felt sorry for. This one inmate never spoke. He had nothing in his cell but a mattress. No spoon or cup to eat and drink with. In the six months I was in that pod, he was never once allowed out of his cell. One day his sister came to visit him and the guards asked him if he wanted to see her, knowing he doesn't ever talk. Since he didn't respond they denied him his visit. They beat him up pretty badly. It's been about three years since my attack. Yes, broken ribs are horrible. I remember desperately wanting to sleep but every time I would doze off my body would slouch and the pain would jolt me awake. The left side of my face, from slightly above my eye down to about my mouth was numb for about a year. Feeling slowly came back and now if I press on that area it'll sometimes create a sensation all around my eye that the best way I can describe it is like an itch that disappears as soon as I remove the pressure. I'm trying to recreate the sensation now and can't although it happened the other night. It has healed a lot. As for the brain damage, which they refused to even do any testing and I discovered I had later.. the jail's solution was to give me a large dosage of anti-psychotics which was an absolute nightmare.

Not me, but my dad, who was a felon since his teen years. He's told me hundreds of messed up stories based on his experiences over the course of years because he wanted us kids to stay out of serious trouble.

Was in a SR High youth group that met with girls who would be getting out in 3 months, effectively for socialization purposes. One of the girls that was released had such a bad homelife, food insecurity, filth, and in a really bad area. After 1 month, she took a large rock, threw it through the window of a Jewelry store and just waited for cops to come and arrest her. She just couldn't take the filth and the lack of food, a bed to sleep in and the lack of a routine and told the other inmates on her return that she just needed to go "Home, " home being the youth prison facility.
@@PrimateProductionsNo. I knew someone who has become the cell block tattooist in Texas state prison. I saw the chaos and filth he grew up in. I think prison is probably the most stability he's had in his entire life.
Former small town CO, and I have 3 that come to mind. 1) A 50 M with the mental capacity of a 8yo was arrested as part of a drug bust. The dealers would 'pay' him with bags of junk food to deliver the stuff for them. His mother, a nearly 80 F, was jumping through hoops to get him released, but he had the crappy lawyer. He had memory problems, and would forget when he just ate or would be asking him for snacks all the time. After three months, his health got worse, so the Capt pulled some strings with the DA and had him sent to get evaluated and his charges dismissed. Even the dealer admitted he had nothing to do with the dealings, he just wanted the snacks. 2) 30 M who sister (a nurse) would pay for him to stay in the only motel in town and bought him food to last a week. All while pocketing his disability check. Like the other guy, he had mental issues and was not all there. One day he ran out of food and walked across the street to the grocery store shop lifted some food. After a long game of telephone, we got a hold of his sister, who refused to bond him out, and his case worker. He also got the same crappy lawyer. Lucky for him though, that lawyer was running for election in her home county, and she passed on her cases to a newly graduated lawyer. That guy took one look at his case and got it dismissed. Two weeks later, and he's back. Same charges after sister dumped him back in the motel. This time, when the lawyer got the charges dropped, she refused to get him. And the motel had banned him. After working it out with case worker, he was taken to a shelter a county over. The sister only called us later to get paperwork so she could restart his disability check. 3) My rookie year, a 40 F, schizophreic whose family refused to take her to Dr for her meds was brought in. She started having violent episodes, attacking her family and they called the police. Instead of getting her help, they wanted to press charges. In the 3 days she was in jail, she would go from calm to violent. Even taking a swing at me, breaking my glasses, and another CO. Monday, we finally get ahold of her case worker, and the judge dismisses the charges, but has her committed due to her family's negligence. She's calm on the ride there, but because the ER was crowded, we were sent to a hallway to wait. While there, I notice her get triggered by the sound of a crying baby, and warn the deputy I'm with and security. She proceeds to have another violent outburst and tries to fight all of us and the nurses until the Dr sedates her. Her family waited two months before calling to check in.
He was obviously referring to another time in his life when he's friends older brother "blew the back of his head off." Not when he was in prison. He was referring to the man's suicide to almost as bad as that time.
“We shouldn’t be doing people in jail any favors” is crazy. Innocent people and people on minor charges are there, people in prison deserve to be treated with decency too. I like the blue guy better than green guy
"we shouldnt be doing people in jail any favours." The sentence is to be removed from the rest of society. To take years of their life away as punishment. The sentence isnt to treat them like animals. What a disappointing thing to hear.
The empathetic nurse got in trouble because the guard was probably worried about her getting manipulated because the really kind and sweet people are targeted by highly manipulative people in any instance

Often they do. While it's against the rules the paperwork floats around quite a bit. Plus with the rise of cell phones they have ways to look things up or have someone on the outside do it for them.
This is my story about 6 months ago me and some friends broke into a cabinet shop thinking it was abandoned (fun fact if you think its abandoned dont try it anyway) so anyways we got sent to jouvie for 3 days anyways when we were in there me and my ex friend got a cell of our own because they kept us quarantined and isolated the whole time and while in there the other kids where asking why we were in there and they started foghting about who bitch we was gonna be and my friend couldn't keep his mouth shut i did knowing that i was gonna get my act together and get out so when we both got released we got probation for 4 to 6 months and while on probation my ex friend fucked up and got sentenced to a year and that when i knew we was gonna die in jouvie
I know SA isn't funny, but whenever it says someone is in for Essay, I just think that they wrote a paper so killer that it was illegal how good it was.
American law is so awful sometimes. Statutory rape exists too where I'm from, but it's different it's when someone in power pressures someone into sex and such. Not a teenage couple just beeing with each other. This is so wild.
The melted toothbrush thing is not as rare as you would think. If you're curious you can probably find a video of The prisoner weapon exhibit at the San Quentin prison museum. I remember one dude made a crossbow out of underwear elastic newspaper and a melted plastic spoon.
When I was 18 I was locked up, a dude just found out his mom died he was crying, I felt so bad, one year ago my mom passed away from cancer, I was locked up two days later I got super drunk and was found on the ledge of a tall parking garage roof, I don't remember much but I woke up in jail in isolation, found out I hit the cop that saved my life
No, not in the USA at least anymore. Not like lighters are the only way to start a fire. Look up how to start a fire with a battery and a gun wrapper….
Story 25, yeah the only sad thing there is that he got time for doing something so justifiable. I know vigilantism is bad societally or whatever but in that situation the only shame is that the fire was after the guy was ended.
To the melted hairbrush comment in story 27, pretty sure that the hairbrush was plastic (cuz plastic is the more acceptable material in prison since it's harder to turn into a weapon), so melt the plastic handle somehow, shape it while it's soft & maleable into a flat and/or pointed shape, then let it cool.
It was a toothbrush, not a hairbrush. In the movie Freeway, Reese Witherspoon turned a toothbrush into a weapon by wrapping the head and bristles with the Saran Wrap from her sandwich. Then she melted it with a lighter and would rub it on the cement floor to form a blade of sorts. She repeated the process until it was sharp. So, if movies are to be believed, that's how the guy in the story did it.
@kaybee29 I'm only going by what I heard from the video, via headphones since I can't watch & work at the same time. The narrator sounded like he said hairbrush, several times.
was working in a prison hospital, they wheeled in an old guy that had been delivered on the prison bus from the courts where he had been convicted of drunk driving, guy didn't know where he was. said he was in a building made of glass then he had woken up in the hospital, and wanted to go home, he kicked his cell door for about an hour, before they tied him to his bed, later that night he started to scream for his mummy, then he suddenly shuts up mid scream, when they checked on him they found him dead, died from a massive stroke. prison doctor thought the guy had dementia and was trying to get him transfered to a special hospital that dealt with that type of prisoner but he died before they found him help.
Story 21 made me fucking cry. What the ever-living-fuck. That poor guy. Everyone, just wanted him to suffer. He is completely alone, abused by everyone around him, and is too impaired to even understand why. This is the kind of thing that makes me believe we don't deserve to survive as a species. There seems to be more monsters out there than decent human beings.
oh buddy, you don't know half the things people get up to in Prison... people make tattoo guns, weaponry of all kinds, alcohol, and even basic electronics and body armor in some cases, and shoddily made Zipguns are among those confiscated from prisons.
Story 11: I don't think he's saying the 'back of the head' incident happened in prison. He's saying what he experienced while he was locked up was as bad as the shot to the head, which he witnessed at a time other than when he was incarcerated.
Not a prison story, but the guy is serving life for this crime. The story about the guy on spice and setting his cell on fire reminds me of something that happened. A relative of mine (by marriage) almost lost his niece due to her boyfriend's actions. She was roughly 7 month pregnant, and she had left him due to his being abusive. He was high on spice, and when he found her, he used a box cutter and forcibly removed the baby, causing the baby's death. She did survive the horrific attack. When he was shown being walked into booking, he kept repeting to the news cameras, "Drugs are dangerous". I dont recall of he ever truly showed remorse for what he did, or what happened once he was put in prison. Cant imagine it was anything nice.
Story 6. OP has blood on his hands. He acts all remorseful and woeful but couldn’t risk getting jumped by guards to save this kids life. he literally watched him get beat to death and acts like a victim. you stood back like a coward
Prison tooth brushes are made of soft plastic with a low melting point, if you press them up against a hot object like an A/C vent during winter or Radiator, they can be flatten out into a blade then when they harden they can be sharpened on the concrete floor
I have had a couple freakouts on spice. The first time I accidentally locked myself in the bathroom with the lights off. I couldn't figure out how to get the light back on or how to get out. The second time I was at work at Pizza Hut. I went out back with a coworker to smoke a bowl in his car. After my second hit I blacked out and ended up lunging at my coworker and then cussed him asking the snow. I was blacked out for about two minutes and then had a mild panic attack for the next ten minutes or so. I ended up leaving work early that day I was perfectly fine about 30 minutes after lunging at the coworker. I have no clue what came over me that night.
Same.... Haven't seen spice do things like that....though what I have seen/ heard is similarly scary..... People continuing to smoke it even though it gives them seizures Guy I knew passed out smoking with his friend...... Guy I knew woke up next to his friend..... His friend did not wake up....guy still smoked it My personal experience.... Mostly Felt like being suffocated until passing out Edit to add:got away from that situation thankfully......only legal Mary Jane now Also .... Looking back....it was so incredibly unpleasant...don't know why...other than it was there, and everyone I knew was smoking it, or maybe that I couldn't care less if I woke up or not...... Whatever the reasons...can't understand the me that smoked that poison

20:21 I think you misunderstood- he was throwing up because he acquired a dependency for the pain medication, not because of the cancer. He then died outside of the prison just because of the cancer, not negligence. Doesn’t make the guy in charge any better, tho honestly pain meds are highly regulated. They CANNOT give them to people without clearance, so unless he caused the screw up, can’t term really blame him for it. Still treated that nurse like crap
5:28 umm people in jail are people two, people who have madd mistakes and have a life story and a perspective and people they love. We should do our best to take care of our prisoners and get them rehabilitated
Going to prison, even for murder, does not rob one of their humanity, and given how many times the law gets it wrong there are a ton of people locked up on bogus evidence and garbage testimony. I'm not saying send them to summer camp. I'm not saying they should be coddled and babied because of a rough past. I had a rough past when I was physically, emotionally, and the other kind of abused by the adults around me as a kid. I've never seen the inside of a prison cell. I got help and did the work, and while it's never easy I keep going. But you don't get to choose to deny another person of their human dignity. Disagree if you want to, but you're wrong. I'm sure someone will take issue with this post.
5:28 we absolutely should. A jail is for people who haven't been convicted and people are innocent untill proven guilty. UN jails are extremely luxurious for that reason, why the fuck are American jails for random offenses hell holes, while the jails in the haug for war criminals are lovely?
Saddest thing was I ever saw with my dad he told my 13-year-old sister who this dude get beat to death because he didn’t pay at that. She did not need to hear that. I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with him supposedly four years sober. 😂 that’s not the first time I’ve heard that or even the fifth.
The first story could be about this dude I know I swear to god. First time I met this dude I told him he was my new best friend he was just so cool. Had enough of his stepdad abusing him and his mom and yep killed him. I miss seeing the dude around

I think prison is probably the most stability he's had in his entire life.
@@grmpEqweer that's likely very true
Former small town CO, and I have 3 that come to mind.
1) A 50 M with the mental capacity of a 8yo was arrested as part of a drug bust. The dealers would 'pay' him with bags of junk food to deliver the stuff for them. His mother, a nearly 80 F, was jumping through hoops to get him released, but he had the crappy lawyer. He had memory problems, and would forget when he just ate or would be asking him for snacks all the time. After three months, his health got worse, so the Capt pulled some strings with the DA and had him sent to get evaluated and his charges dismissed. Even the dealer admitted he had nothing to do with the dealings, he just wanted the snacks.
2) 30 M who sister (a nurse) would pay for him to stay in the only motel in town and bought him food to last a week. All while pocketing his disability check. Like the other guy, he had mental issues and was not all there. One day he ran out of food and walked across the street to the grocery store shop lifted some food. After a long game of telephone, we got a hold of his sister, who refused to bond him out, and his case worker. He also got the same crappy lawyer. Lucky for him though, that lawyer was running for election in her home county, and she passed on her cases to a newly graduated lawyer. That guy took one look at his case and got it dismissed. Two weeks later, and he's back. Same charges after sister dumped him back in the motel. This time, when the lawyer got the charges dropped, she refused to get him. And the motel had banned him. After working it out with case worker, he was taken to a shelter a county over. The sister only called us later to get paperwork so she could restart his disability check.
3) My rookie year, a 40 F, schizophreic whose family refused to take her to Dr for her meds was brought in. She started having violent episodes, attacking her family and they called the police. Instead of getting her help, they wanted to press charges. In the 3 days she was in jail, she would go from calm to violent. Even taking a swing at me, breaking my glasses, and another CO. Monday, we finally get ahold of her case worker, and the judge dismisses the charges, but has her committed due to her family's negligence. She's calm on the ride there, but because the ER was crowded, we were sent to a hallway to wait. While there, I notice her get triggered by the sound of a crying baby, and warn the deputy I'm with and security. She proceeds to have another violent outburst and tries to fight all of us and the nurses until the Dr sedates her. Her family waited two months before calling to check in.
He was obviously referring to another time in his life when he's friends older brother "blew the back of his head off." Not when he was in prison. He was referring to the man's suicide to almost as bad as that time.
This video simultaneously strengthened and destroyed my faith in humanity
“I absolutely learned my lesson. Lol” is unnecessarily funny.
“We shouldn’t be doing people in jail any favors” is crazy. Innocent people and people on minor charges are there, people in prison deserve to be treated with decency too. I like the blue guy better than green guy
Putting this on in the background while I fill up my sketchbook :)
Story 57 is the plot of "My name is Earl" tv show.
Specifically the beginning of season 3
Im glad Im not the only one who noticed
As soon as I heard his name was earl I hoped 🤣🤣🤣
@@jackmurray90 well, name did start some susputions but when i heard second name "Joyce" - I thought "that's wierd coincidance"
Took me all of 5 sec to figure out it sounded familiar😂😂😂😂😂😂
Story 21 was heartbreaking. I hated that story 🙁
I'm sorry but the story of the mom who "forgot" to pick her kid up from juvenile detention FOR A WEEK!! Clearly they put the wrong person in prison!
"we shouldnt be doing people in jail any favours."
The sentence is to be removed from the rest of society. To take years of their life away as punishment. The sentence isnt to treat them like animals. What a disappointing thing to hear.
What do you expect in a country where they lock up 11 year olds
Couldn’t agree more
The empathetic nurse got in trouble because the guard was probably worried about her getting manipulated because the really kind and sweet people are targeted by highly manipulative people in any instance
Also they CAN'T give meds to someone if the paperwork isn't there. It's not just them being cruel it's about liability and legal issues.
When awful things happen and they say “they were just in there for ____”
No other inmates actually knows why someone is in there …
yes they do, you get your papers that have your charge on them
@@Podzhagitel no other* inmates know 😂 ofcourse they themselves would know their own charges but it’s cardinal rule never to tell or ask why you’re in there.
@@ZomBeeQueeen i know what you were going for. but usually in everyone’s testimonial i’ve heard you have to present the shot caller with papers to make sure you’re not a snitch or chomo
Often they do. While it's against the rules the paperwork floats around quite a bit. Plus with the rise of cell phones they have ways to look things up or have someone on the outside do it for them.
This is my story about 6 months ago me and some friends broke into a cabinet shop thinking it was abandoned (fun fact if you think its abandoned dont try it anyway) so anyways we got sent to jouvie for 3 days anyways when we were in there me and my ex friend got a cell of our own because they kept us quarantined and isolated the whole time and while in there the other kids where asking why we were in there and they started foghting about who bitch we was gonna be and my friend couldn't keep his mouth shut i did knowing that i was gonna get my act together and get out so when we both got released we got probation for 4 to 6 months and while on probation my ex friend fucked up and got sentenced to a year and that when i knew we was gonna die in jouvie
I know SA isn't funny, but whenever it says someone is in for Essay, I just think that they wrote a paper so killer that it was illegal how good it was.
So if you know sa isn’t funny then why in the world would you nah I’m just fuckin with you man that is some funny shit 😂
American law is so awful sometimes. Statutory rape exists too where I'm from, but it's different it's when someone in power pressures someone into sex and such. Not a teenage couple just beeing with each other. This is so wild.
People get screwed by the legal system everywhere in the world. It’s not an “American thing”
For anyone who wants to know, this game is Journey, it’s really good •u•
The melted toothbrush thing is not as rare as you would think. If you're curious you can probably find a video of The prisoner weapon exhibit at the San Quentin prison museum. I remember one dude made a crossbow out of underwear elastic newspaper and a melted plastic spoon.
When he said Earl, I immediately thought it was going to be a joke post and was not disappointed
When I was 18 I was locked up, a dude just found out his mom died he was crying, I felt so bad, one year ago my mom passed away from cancer, I was locked up two days later I got super drunk and was found on the ledge of a tall parking garage roof, I don't remember much but I woke up in jail in isolation, found out I hit the cop that saved my life
About the melted toothbrush one, last I knew, you have access to lighters and cigs.
Depends on most prisons lighter are contraband and so is tobacco.
Depending on the place, some still have the old fashion heaters or smuggle in a lighter.
No, not in the USA at least anymore. Not like lighters are the only way to start a fire.
Look up how to start a fire with a battery and a gun wrapper….
Story 25, yeah the only sad thing there is that he got time for doing something so justifiable. I know vigilantism is bad societally or whatever but in that situation the only shame is that the fire was after the guy was ended.
To the melted hairbrush comment in story 27, pretty sure that the hairbrush was plastic (cuz plastic is the more acceptable material in prison since it's harder to turn into a weapon), so melt the plastic handle somehow, shape it while it's soft & maleable into a flat and/or pointed shape, then let it cool.
It was a toothbrush, not a hairbrush. In the movie Freeway, Reese Witherspoon turned a toothbrush into a weapon by wrapping the head and bristles with the Saran Wrap from her sandwich. Then she melted it with a lighter and would rub it on the cement floor to form a blade of sorts. She repeated the process until it was sharp. So, if movies are to be believed, that's how the guy in the story did it.
@kaybee29 I'm only going by what I heard from the video, via headphones since I can't watch & work at the same time. The narrator sounded like he said hairbrush, several times.
was working in a prison hospital, they wheeled in an old guy that had been delivered on the prison bus from the courts where he had been convicted of drunk driving, guy didn't know where he was. said he was in a building made of glass then he had woken up in the hospital, and wanted to go home, he kicked his cell door for about an hour, before they tied him to his bed, later that night he started to scream for his mummy, then he suddenly shuts up mid scream, when they checked on him they found him dead, died from a massive stroke. prison doctor thought the guy had dementia and was trying to get him transfered to a special hospital that dealt with that type of prisoner but he died before they found him help.
The saddest thing was some convict loosing a family member and only join to the funeral ceremony at the cemetry with 2 prison guards on both sides.
Story 21 made me fucking cry. What the ever-living-fuck. That poor guy. Everyone, just wanted him to suffer. He is completely alone, abused by everyone around him, and is too impaired to even understand why. This is the kind of thing that makes me believe we don't deserve to survive as a species. There seems to be more monsters out there than decent human beings.
oh buddy, you don't know half the things people get up to in Prison... people make tattoo guns, weaponry of all kinds, alcohol, and even basic electronics and body armor in some cases, and shoddily made Zipguns are among those confiscated from prisons.
Story 11: I don't think he's saying the 'back of the head' incident happened in prison. He's saying what he experienced while he was locked up was as bad as the shot to the head, which he witnessed at a time other than when he was incarcerated.
The dude created a shiv out of his toothbrush. You melt it so it becomes malleable and form it to a point.
the brother blowing his head off happened out of prison when he was a kid.
Guess I"m showing my age, but the Earl & Joy lottery ticket thing is from the show, "My Name is Earl," from 2005-2009
I like this guy, not nearly as scared as the other 2
just watched so many of your vids now I see 58seconds
This dude saying unalive is the stupidest thing I've ever heard
Thank you for being my bed time stories😂
Lmao so real, I’ve fallen asleep to these more than once
His voice is really soothing as well🥰🥰🥰
The story where the guy’s mother died and he unalived himself is so sad 😭
Not a prison story, but the guy is serving life for this crime. The story about the guy on spice and setting his cell on fire reminds me of something that happened. A relative of mine (by marriage) almost lost his niece due to her boyfriend's actions. She was roughly 7 month pregnant, and she had left him due to his being abusive. He was high on spice, and when he found her, he used a box cutter and forcibly removed the baby, causing the baby's death. She did survive the horrific attack. When he was shown being walked into booking, he kept repeting to the news cameras, "Drugs are dangerous". I dont recall of he ever truly showed remorse for what he did, or what happened once he was put in prison. Cant imagine it was anything nice.
Story 6. OP has blood on his hands. He acts all remorseful and woeful but couldn’t risk getting jumped by guards to save this kids life. he literally watched him get beat to death and acts like a victim. you stood back like a coward
Story 57 being My Name is Earl is hilarious.
From Columbus, Ohio. I've seen some fucked up shit, and that story made it to the newspapee.
Prison tooth brushes are made of soft plastic with a low melting point, if you press them up against a hot object like an A/C vent during winter or Radiator, they can be flatten out into a blade then when they harden they can be sharpened on the concrete floor
1 hour!?? thanks 🎉
thanks for being the stuff I listen to at work lol
I love this narrators voice.
Nooo bring back the other guy PLS
I have had a couple freakouts on spice. The first time I accidentally locked myself in the bathroom with the lights off. I couldn't figure out how to get the light back on or how to get out.
The second time I was at work at Pizza Hut. I went out back with a coworker to smoke a bowl in his car. After my second hit I blacked out and ended up lunging at my coworker and then cussed him asking the snow. I was blacked out for about two minutes and then had a mild panic attack for the next ten minutes or so. I ended up leaving work early that day I was perfectly fine about 30 minutes after lunging at the coworker. I have no clue what came over me that night.
1:20 We need more "Spice" stories, coz damn...
"Dreams are messages from the deep."
Same.... Haven't seen spice do things like that....though what I have seen/ heard is similarly scary.....
People continuing to smoke it even though it gives them seizures
Guy I knew passed out smoking with his friend...... Guy I knew woke up next to his friend..... His friend did not wake up....guy still smoked it
My personal experience.... Mostly Felt like being suffocated until passing out
Edit to add:got away from that situation thankfully......only legal Mary Jane now
Also .... Looking back....it was so incredibly unpleasant...don't know why...other than it was there, and everyone I knew was smoking it, or maybe that I couldn't care less if I woke up or not...... Whatever the reasons...can't understand the me that smoked that poison
@@kitcat8308 I'm sorry about that💔💔
@@yolz_olives thanks for caring 😊.... Trying to take it as a learning experience.... Mostly succeed 😅. .. can't help regrets ...but can't change the past either... Just trying to make sure the future is better
8:46 I think it was in reference to before or after being in prison since you know, he talked about his best friend's brother, not a cellmate.
My heart hurts for them.😢😢
20:21 I think you misunderstood- he was throwing up because he acquired a dependency for the pain medication, not because of the cancer. He then died outside of the prison just because of the cancer, not negligence.
Doesn’t make the guy in charge any better, tho honestly pain meds are highly regulated. They CANNOT give them to people without clearance, so unless he caused the screw up, can’t term really blame him for it. Still treated that nurse like crap
59:50 My name is Earl!
8:45 he said room not prison cell, most likely it didn't happen in prison cuz geting a gun in a prison is preety much imposible
Story 27. You just melt a disposable razor into the handle..... not very sturdy, but effective.
5:28 umm people in jail are people two, people who have madd mistakes and have a life story and a perspective and people they love. We should do our best to take care of our prisoners and get them rehabilitated
What's the name of the game being played in the video?
I'm pretty sure the whole point of jail was rehab, at least, when it was first made
Story 2
How'd he FLOOD the cell and also set it on FIRE
American prisons are where hope goes to die, for the guilty and innocent alike
Oh. My. God.
Hey what game is in the background?
I bet reader didn't know that was a show XD
Off topic but does anyone know what game he’s playing
1:00:00 thats plot from "my name is earl" show XD
What's the game in the background?
Is that journey?? Jeez I love that game. W choice
Bruh, story 57 is litterally just from the TV show 'My Name is Earl' lol
Going to prison, even for murder, does not rob one of their humanity, and given how many times the law gets it wrong there are a ton of people locked up on bogus evidence and garbage testimony. I'm not saying send them to summer camp. I'm not saying they should be coddled and babied because of a rough past. I had a rough past when I was physically, emotionally, and the other kind of abused by the adults around me as a kid. I've never seen the inside of a prison cell. I got help and did the work, and while it's never easy I keep going. But you don't get to choose to deny another person of their human dignity. Disagree if you want to, but you're wrong. I'm sure someone will take issue with this post.
33:58 Of course he became a lawyer. 👀
My name is Earl should've had a proper finale season..(story 57)
5:28 we absolutely should. A jail is for people who haven't been convicted and people are innocent untill proven guilty. UN jails are extremely luxurious for that reason, why the fuck are American jails for random offenses hell holes, while the jails in the haug for war criminals are lovely?
1:00:26 dont fw a mans honey bun 😂
Saddest thing was I ever saw with my dad he told my 13-year-old sister who this dude get beat to death because he didn’t pay at that. She did not need to hear that. I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with him supposedly four years sober. 😂 that’s not the first time I’ve heard that or even the fifth.
They put the the young looking guy in the special needs unit me awe.......it was filled with creeps Me ......
Oh no
You can't say su!cide but can say r@pe?
The algorithm and censorship is weird and you don't know what you can and can't say until the video is taken down
@@TheOmegaXicorIt's not about it being taken down but demonetized.
Alright, who posted the me name is earl reference?
The first story could be about this dude I know I swear to god. First time I met this dude I told him he was my new best friend he was just so cool. Had enough of his stepdad abusing him and his mom and yep killed him. I miss seeing the dude around
bruh peeople dnt become phycopaths that easily that shit takes tons of long term trauma not one incident
Story 57 is a tv show called My Name is Earl. Hilarious
I'm confused what voice is your real one
Slow DOWN between stories please
2:35 kid got karma 😂
What happened to the old narrator? Can we have him back?
gotta pan your stories a bit better, story 57 is the plot to one of the season's of the TV show, my name is Earl lol.
Ehy did the voice change?
There are three different narrators :) (i think they're three)
A lot of capping in this video
Could we actually stop using algo speach and treating the words death and suicide like actual words?
Did you really end this with " my name is earl"???🙄🙄🙄😶😂
Learn from the brits.
We can do better
Treat humanly.
It is always possible.
Prison really does make society.
7:18
This is a retelling of a video theyve already posted. Different narrator, but the stories are exactly the same. Disappointing. :/
