Garet McLendon

Like, uh, like, um, I'm unfortunate, man.

I, I, I,

things never worked out in the yards when i wanted tattoos or anything like that and so i don't have any i don't know if it was that time when i first got busted and i i came home with this and my mom was like man don't get don't get tattoos on your body and if something happened i didn't get no tattoos and i and um that guy to this day is still running from the law and hiding all throughout in every in all the different states and every now and then he he reaches out to me and um

and uh like it it just like uh what like it was like i'm sitting there with this guy i idolize and he was telling me man like this this life isn't for you and i i couldn't stay out man like my my drug addiction and uh and everything that came with it from the streets like i'm addicted to the streets and the and the streets is the drugs and i and i couldn't stay out of jail on a violation because i'm

I'm a striker and I got like an 80 percenter.

So like every single one of my violations, I get out, be one year, get out.

I'd be out for a month, it'd be one year.

I get out, another year went by and I can't stay out.

And not only did that, like my whole dream as a convict was I wanted to bring stuff into prison and sell drugs.

I wanted to sell drugs in prison just like I sold it on the streets.

And my points start to drop because I'm doing these violations of four yard, a four yard, a three yard to a two yard to a two.

I land on this one yard on a night, a hard 19.

And I'm sitting there on this one yard.

It's my last trip.

It's my last time.

I don't know.

It's going to be my last time, but I'm on this prison yard.

And like what I want to do, man, like that by this time, the cell phones are on the yard.

nobody's smoking now we're now we need to smuggle tobacco on the yard not just drugs but we're trying to bring tobacco on here too and uh and that falls in my place that i have those connections on the streets to where like uh i remember sitting there watching everything going on inside the prison system everything going on dude where like you're sitting there and you're

and like this talk about sitting up against the wall and watching everything every single day that goes on like you take a note of like you got four o'clock walk 3 35 to to to 3 40 or walk to the a side uh you're talking about four four o'clock to to 4 15 uh getting ready for chow i got this whole thing all eyes out man i got these youngsters that just prey on me because i come from this four yards so there's like garrett i'll do whatever for you whatever for you man
