He just killed this guy like it was nothing, you know, and he was never getting out anyway. Right. Where else is he going? You know, so it's a lot of stories, man. I mean, I could load you up with stories that I saw, man, that things happen in that place, man. And it was just like just like business, normal business, you know, like it was nothing.

The main factor was I wanted a better environment because at the time I'm young. In South Florida, like I said, from What I've gotten was, hey, man, that place is really progressive. So coming out of, and I don't know if you're familiar with the location of where Florida State Prison is, but it's in Bradford County, which is right outside of Gainesville. Well, it's country.

And so it's not a lot to do there for a young person. So the Sheriff's Department, Bradford Sheriff's Department was hiring. So I made the decision. I said, you know what, let me put an application in. And obviously the pay was a whole lot better. And so I put in and I got selected and I went down, I took the job. So that's how I ended up down in Briar County.

Getting there, the Broward Sheriff's Office was in a transition where they just built a brand new facility. So they were in need of a lot of people because, like I said, because of cocaine and all those different things, everything was exploding there. And the facilities were, you know, bigger facilities were needed for, you know, to accommodate, you know, the arrestees.

So coming in there, I came in with a lot of young people my age. And I also was there with some people that was a little bit older, but most of us are pretty much around the same age in diameter. But the good part was I had already had experience. So coming in from a prison system, coming into a jail facility was night and day. It was totally night and day where, you know, it was no discipline.

It was no because these people were coming off the street. So they weren't like, you know, acclimated to being incarcerated. I should say, you know, it's not like they were like, OK, you know what? I know what to do when I get here. Some of these people are new to the system. Some of these people have been previously, obviously, you know, we arrested.

But it wasn't the kind of structure that you would have in prison. Everybody know we eat at this time in prison. Everybody know we go do this at this time. Things in jail is fluid because people don't stay. You know, they come and go. It's transit. They bond out. They go to prison or whatever the case may be, you know. So it was always overchanging. And that's something I had to get used to.
