Having Admin Lt. telling you not to carry your holster inside the institution after you just got done taking Richard Alan David to Marin General does not help when asked why? It might intimidate the inmates and they will sue. Kern to Vacaville, SQ, Tracy to Corcoran, Salinas valley or CMC! How much money did they blow on new patches that added rehabilitation to the patch? No one ends up at CDC-R on accident. One in 3k might get rehabilitated but stats don’t lie. Sadly you would go to prison for what was acceptable practice 25 years ago. Inmates are definitely running the asylum.

I really love your channel man. I know he's an intense guy but I really appreciate that he didn't let bad things in life crush him and take him down a worse route. He was given lemons and made lemonade. My father and my siblings all grew up in somewhat similar situations to him here in Australia. We were kicked out of home in our early to mid teens, working, renting, going to school and there was an easy route to go to drugs or turn to crime but we pulled through. It forced us all to grow up very fast. For me, I was very lucky to have a good community of friends and an older brother. The army was a good place for me to go to so I could get my shit together too. I guess in those ways, I could really relate to what he said.
