Steven Dominguez

Ironically, I know this inmate.

I've actually seen him in real time outside of Rikers in the street.

He's a well-known drug dealer.

New York City might seem big to outsiders of New York City, but when you're in the loop of things, you kind of know who's who.

And I've actually seen this guy in real time prior to me even taking the Department of Corrections exam.

He doesn't know this, but I kind of...

I know who he is.

Through a friend of a friend.

Since day one, very respectful.

What's up, Dominguez?

How are you?

Everything good?

Chilling?

He's working in the visit floor where he's giving the inmates an exchange into their regular clothes because at this time, 2011-12, on Rikers, you were still able to wear regular clothes.

And that was like an up on people because it's so egotistical in prison and in jail that if you have designer stuff, you're the man.

So when you get to the visit floor on Rikers, you change into the jumpsuit, the gray jumpsuit.

They give you the slippers, the brown slippers or the orange slippers.

He's working that detail while I'm working for while I'm working the escort and waiting for this inmate to finish his visit, take him back to RHU.

We start talking, small talk, and he goes again, just like the rest of them.

yo, we should make some money.
