And I forgot I was a law student.

I forgot he was a condemned person on death row.

We were just two people talking.

And the visit was only scheduled for an hour, but we kept talking.

I just lost track of time.

And one hour turned to two hours, two hours turned to three hours.

The guards were waiting for me to finish.

And after three hours, they got angry and they couldn't take it anymore.

So they came bursting into the room and they grabbed this man and they threw him against the wall.

They pulled his arms back.

They put the handcuffs on his wrists really tightly.

They wrapped the chain around his waist.

They were treating very roughly.

They put the shackles back on his ankles.

And I begged them to be gentler.

I said, look, it's not his fault.

It's my fault.

He didn't do anything wrong, but they ignored me.

Then they started shoving this man toward the door, really pushing him.

And it upset me.
