You know, they have no future over there.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

It's hard.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

It's a lot harder to it's a lot harder to get out of prison over there and stay out than it is here in the States.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

I had no clothes, no job, no car.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

All I had was the help of my parents and my family and that moral support.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast

And I had the want and the will to make it and to come out and be something and not just go back to prison and be another statistic.

And he signed a treaty saying that all foreign prisoners that have 50% of their time or more are getting deported.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast

So luckily I was, or unluckily, I had to do my seven years or whatever.

So I get deported, you know, thank God, and just made it back to the States, man, because of him.
