By the age of 22 I had a long criminal record.
I had been arrested on both state and federal charges, with a cocktail of drugs and alcohol in my system.
I also had a warrant for my arrest for 6 years.
This is me, I look so innocent but I assure you I was a POS.

I only say this because I’m a bit tired of hearing all about someone’s criminal record after they’re murdered by the state.
I’ve been through the system. This is nonsense.

Just for those that aren’t clear. I’m using this post to illustrate the privilege I’ve had while going through the criminal justice system.
