He's an interesting case. > [...] I was a young kid who thought I was smart and clever and thought I knew people. Prison dunked my head in a cold river of reality. Many people in these prisons have a strong criminal mindset. You learn by fucking up that there are always people who have had it worse, are more clever, stronger, but also more debased, cruel, and uncaring. From this though I have been forced to overcome my autism symptoms. I was thrown off by loud noises, physical contact, and was completely socially inept before I came to prison. Free world society softly caters to autistic kids but in prison you have no choice but to confront your mental health. In short, prison is an adverse environment which can bring out the good, or more often the bad, in people. As a young kid I learned quick that I couldn't rely on any staff or inmates as far as trust goes. I quickly saw I wasn't going to be babied and if I didn't fight for myself and who I was I would be lost. Not everyone becomes a paragon, very few do. [...] Not sure what to make of him. He's very forthcoming about what he did, but evasive about the why.
