  Speaker 2: know where to start with this guy. So during the
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: last lockdow a month ago, actually a little bit over
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: a month ago. I think it's more like more like
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: five and a half almost six weeks to give or take.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: So we was on locking lock for ten days and
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: on about day three of the lock, day four, maybe
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: they put a put a guy on myself. You know,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: they came basically gave me no choice. It was either
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: he comes in myself and I moved to the top bunk.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Never mind the tumor growing out of my right tivy o,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: the holes eating all throughout the right tibia, you know,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and so on and so forth. Why the hell is
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: this guy pulling his pants down in the middle of
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: the pot, I'll say, yeah, y'all, see we see some
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: weirds here. Sorry about that. Uh, this guy literally just
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: walked up to another guy and she's unh unbuttoned his
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: pants and just literally just dropped him to his ankles,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: just stood there. It's like showing another inmate something. They
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: really need to give me a camera, and here I'm
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: telling you people, I would have the greatest television show
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: in the history of the world. All right. Sorry, So
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: they they they confiscate my single cell. They revoke at
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: doing lock, so I can't get out. I can't call
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: gay gardner. I can't talk to anybody. I can't find
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: out what's going on. I can't sit there and say, Okay, look,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: if you're going to revoke my single cell status and
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: at least have the decency to one let me keep
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: my bottom bunking because of the bone cancer. And two,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: you know, at least let me go pick my celly like,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: let me go find my guy. It won't take me. Hell,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I already know where he's at, and he comes down here,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: and then y'all can find this cat some other place
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: to stay. I got, you know, I don't know this dude.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: I genuinely kind of wish that I didn't. I know,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I spoke a little bit about it and one of
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: my earlier podcasts when I was talking about the lockdown
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: and then putting him in the cell with me and
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: so on and so forth. And I'm gonna I've got
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: a lot more to go on. I've got a lot
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: of things I can sit there and say about this guy. Gosh,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: where do I start. The guy is filthy. I am
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: an extremely clean person. I clean, I used to bathroom,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: I wash my hands, I wake up in the middle
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: of the night to take a piss. I still wash
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: my hands before going back to sleep. That's what I do.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I'm clean. I like everything nice and neat and organized.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: I take time to make sure everything is that way.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: When I clean, I don't just do surface cleaning. I
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: don't just take a damp rag and wipe something down. No,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: I scrub it with shampoo like. That's the reason why
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: I buy the what's that damn that V one oh
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: five stuff VO five or something like that. But it's
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: it's like a dollar ninety eight for twelve ounces. That's
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: what I use to clean because I don't like using
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: the chemicals that they give us. So I use shampoo. Yes,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I know it's chemicals, but it's chemicals designed for your body.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: It to me, makes better cleaning. So that's how I
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: do think of it. I'm just that's just the way
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I am. And at the end of the day, I
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: don't do it for these people. I don't care if
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: they come by myself look in but oh my lord,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: that's a really clean silk. That's why are you looking
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: at myself? Like you saw me up? And move and
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: keep it moving? People that come on, man, there's etiquette
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: to this, you know. I don't mind a nice compliment,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, like y'all do
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: need to keep it moving. You know, y'all have rules
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: to live by. I have roles to live by. That's
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: just all there is to it, you know. But I
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: do it for me because it makes me feel better
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: to live in a clean environment, to know that whatever
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I touched is going to be clean. My felly is
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the exact freaking opposite of that. You know. If the
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: dude is just so damn weird, he's just all right.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: So I'm just simply going to I'm simply just going
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: to kind of list quite a few of the things
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: that this guy has done that I've had to basically
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: snap on him over. So after the lockdown, I didn't
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: get to see my wife on the video business for
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: two weeks. They got canceled, along with a couple other
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: people's video business and whatnot. So when we come off,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: my wife had accidentally deleted the phone number. Because we've
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: had problems with some of the international call services apps
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: that we've been using, we found one that seems to work.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit of you got to jump to
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: a couple of hoops to get to call connected, but
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: we basically got it down to a t, but I
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: didn't get to talk to my wife her well like
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: almost a week. So I went three weeks without talking
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: to him. And for some reason GTL would not allow
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: anybody to set a video business to me. I did
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: find out why, and I guess I'll go ahead and
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: share that with you right now. So apparently somebody has
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: to be locked up with the last name Vaya, who
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: has uh done some really foulsh because after several weeks
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: we get tired of it. Like my wife is calling GTL.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: They're saying, call the prison. Prison is the one that
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: took them. She's calling the prison the prison, saying, when
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: we ain't taken we didn't take VIA's business. Why would we.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: The man's been charged ring for damn near two decades,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: like he ain't done nothing wrong. Called GTL, She's like,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: well I've called them. It's like, well, we don't know
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: what to tell you. Like and the lady got really
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: really smart with her. I'm glad I don't know who
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: she is, so i'd probably have words for her. Long
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: and short of it is, I had to write up
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: a quest for him to UH Operations Officer Briant. I
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: think she's like fourth in charge, I believe. So she
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: calls me over there maybe four days later. And when
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: she's she's talking to a bunch of guys and so
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: where and you go into the building. You've got like
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: a little waiting room type of area, and then you
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: got bars to the rest of the building where offices are,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: school rooms, you know, classrooms, I mean, excuse me, sorry
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: about that, low ibry counselors, offices, mental health offices and
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: all that stuff. So she's talking to them guys, and
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: she's me coming, and she's like, all right, the rest
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: of you, y'all can go. I need to talk to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: him in the office. When you talk to us through
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: the bars, and you know, I need to talk to
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: him in office. Y'all can go back to the building
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: them to do that, to leave, and they're not happy
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: about it, but it is what it is. So she
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: opens the bars, lets me in and takes me into
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: an office by myself, by herself, no cameras, no security, nothing,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: And she asked me like, mister, va of you all,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: are you a rapist? Hell, no, I ain't a rapist,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: you know, child? My life tressed? No, I ain't no child.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: What And I'm thinking to myself, like, lady, you just
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: brought me into a room with no cameras and no
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: security and you're asking me if I'm a rapist. That's
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: probably not the smartest thing. I didn't say this out loud.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: I was just kind of thinking that in my head,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: like it's a little wild right there. And she's like,
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: I who thinks. So she's like, why the hell is
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: GTL accusing you of doing this? I'm like, I don't know.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: She actually shows me, and she shows me. It's like
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: she pulled up my criminal record on course, and it's
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: got capital murder, arm, robbery, gun, charges of beings, assault
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: and batteries, arson and so on and so forth, you know,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: but it has nothing sexual. She literally had me sign
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: legal paperwork saying that I have never been accused of,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: charged with, or convicted of any sexual crime whatsoever because
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: GTL was accusing me of raping a mother and daughter.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: So apparently I'm into that type of and didn't know it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Wasn't aware of it. You talk of if heated, let
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: me tell you something. I was pissed, but thankfully miss
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Bryant was actually offended on my behalf, like she was pissed,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: like she said, I will take care of it. I'll
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: promise you. Like I'm about to go back to my
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: office right now, I'm gonna call Gtail and I'm raising hell.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: They should not be doing issue right here. You know.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: It's like, of course I'm now in her eternal debt.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, she did right by me. She not
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: only got it fixed, she got it fixed The very
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: next day. I was able to get video business schedule,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: you know, So now I can see my wife and
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: my friends, and that's what matters. So I'm dealing with this.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: You know, I couldn't really call my wife until we
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: got the new service and we kind of figured out
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: how to work it. And this whole time, I'm in
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: the sell. The whole time, I'm in the cell with
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: a dude that is just respectful, rude. He doesn't say
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: anything to me. He kind of knows the writing on
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: the wall when it comes to a physical confrontation between
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: him and me. That's I'm sorry, but yeah, that it's
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: way too easy. There's plenty of guys on his compound
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: who'd beat the ever love it out of me. He
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: just doesn't happen to be one of it. But he's
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: just really snarky, and not in a good way though,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: like mumbling under his breath so you can't quite hear him,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: and you know the stuff like that. He's so like
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: when he first comes in, I tell the guy, look,
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: this is how I live. I'm clean, I'm respectful. I
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: don't touch your stuff. You don't touch my stuff. I
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: do my Bible study from five thirty to six thirty
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: every single night, and this light will be coming on
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: for that. I get up usually around four thirty in
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: the morning every morning, and I pray for an hour,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: and then if I have time left over, I'll lay
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: back down and I'll try to get me another ten
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: twenty minutes to sleep. Then I get up, I go
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: outside for the wreck, come back in, eat my peanut
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: butter and oatmeal, take my shower, make a call or
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: two if I can. Going about my damn day. This
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: dude no like he freaking throws a tantrum. I hear
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: him like thirsty. He doesn't say anything when I'm doing
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: my prayers in the morning, because I don't pray out
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: loud with somebody in the cell. If he wasn't in there,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I was by myself, I'd pray out loud, but you know,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: I just pray in my head. I'm sitting there on
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: my top bunk. It doesn't bother him, doesn't know. And
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: but my Bible study. He has a habit of wanting
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: to lay down and take a nap doing my Bible.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: First of all, bro, this is my cell. I was
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: in the cell first. That means I dictate the schedule.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: That's prison policy. That's convict code right there. If you're
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: not the first one in the cell and you ain't
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: man enough to beat your cellar into compliance, you go
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: by the established schedule. But he wants to try to
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: take naps while I'm doing my Bible. Go ahead, sleep,
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: I don't care. But the light's coming on. I'm doing
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: my Bible study. And that's all there is to it.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Because God ain't made demand yet, and it can come
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: between me and him as Satan the devil came to it.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: No clown asked dude from roll with treat. Virginia's going too,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: So we're off to the wrong foot on that right there,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: You know, him huffing and puffing. It's right so bright.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: First of all, do it. I will uncover my window,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: turn all the lights in the cell on twenty four
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: hours a day. I'll take you the red onion toime
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: and mice will never go off. I'm trying to be
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: nice like and I tried talking to this dude. I
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: tried talking to him, but nothing. So my very first
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: video visit, I get back scheduled with my wife Nick.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: My wife is going through something. I'm not going to
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: go through the details of that that's personal between me
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: and her, but she was kind of dealing with a
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: lot of stressful situations in our life. So after the
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: video visit, I come over and I get on the
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: phone and I make five phone calls. I had to
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: do what I had to do. You know, I've got
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: to be there to support my wife. When I said
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: for better or worse, I meant every word of it.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: And I'm a man of my damn word. So I
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: didn't get to go to dinner. So, you know, at
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: the point where it's getting close to lockdown, and I
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: tell Nick, hey, look baby, I genuinely I cannot call back.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I got to go fix something to eat real quick,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: and I got locked down for count. You know, I've
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: got to do my Bible study. Also, it's like, okay,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: you know, thank you. Blah blah blah and everything you
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: know told me I was a good husband. I was
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that thing was a very good husband. I listened to
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: people go back into cell. He's not in the cell.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: He's actually out talking to somebody. And I know for
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: a fact God had him leave that cell before I
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: went back in and go talk to somebody. He was
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: in somebody's self because he was not on the floor
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: because I look for him. When I go back in
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: to sell. The lights are off. I've got the back
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: windows of the window to the outside. I've got blanket
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: stuffed up in there to completely black it out. So
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: I want to keep that heat out. When it was
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: one hundred some degrees, I did everything I could to
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: keep the heat out. Just sailed because it was like
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty degrees in the damn pod. I
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: wasn't trying to deal with that. So I smell something funny.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: What the hell is that? So I just take my
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: lemon grass spray that I you know, water mixed with
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: lemon grass prayer or put it in as a spray bottle.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: As I thought full time with saws reals good. I
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: started getting my stuff to make me a little finishing too,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: and I turned the light on so I can turn
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: the combination on the locker. This dude didn't flush the toilet,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: but he still got fecal matter in the well. I'm
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: about to say, looking at him, I can't see him.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: He'd have been in that soul. He'd have been in
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: that part. I have called his as out of it.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: I'd have probably stuffed his face in it, just like
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: you do a damn puppy. I just I get hold
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: of myself. I take a moment, I flush the toilet,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I wash my hand. You have one minute, you mean?
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: All right? Uh, that's uh, that's gonna be part one.
