    They honestly don’t want them to come out.

    I have a ton of relatives who live in Huntsville Texas where seven prisons are located. They all work for them and some even live on site. I’ve heard them call the inmates animals and that’s why they are treated like this. It’s absolutely sickening to hear them say all the things about the inmates.

    I recently lost a old friend after she spiraled downwards after having enough weed/vape products on her to be considered a felony. She tried to recover from being in prison but being a felon just made it impossible for her to find a path.

    She killed herself by taking too much heroin the night before Thanksgiving.

    Her prison sentence was in Huntsville so there is a good chance one of my relatives was a guard at her prison. Hearing my family dehumanize my friend was what made me decide to cut off all contact with that half of my family tree.
