You might consider emailing him. It's lonely in jail/prison. Suddenly everyone you thought were your closest friends don't speak a word to you again.
If you're lucky, you've got a wife or parents that'll write to you or take your calls.
- qingcharles 3y agoWow, I know you've been locked up, brother. Nobody will take your call the second you step inside a jail. Best man at your wedding? He's not picking up, I promise you. Literally nobody will call you or write to you. You will get nothing except maybe from your mother. If you are married, forget it. Humans only like to associate with success. Once you seem to be failing literally nobody will want to even speak to you.
