      Before that statement, he spoke about people on trial taking pleas to crimes they haven’t committed due to the fear of getting maximum sentences. So he didn’t say that to explain the plea. It is about acceptance and acknowledgement. He also mentioned that he did worse that he wasn’t caught for.

      Mel Stacxs Rikers Island is a jail. If you get more than 2 years in prison, you're sent upstate. My boy got 3 1/2, he's in Wyoming up in Attica, NY. He spent time on Rikers but was moved. Other friends who done years, moved upstate. Rikers Island is only for small time. Anything more than 2 years, you're sent upstate.

    Maino could be the most hood dude on the planet, but if you fell down, or someone was bullying you, I feel like he'd help you out. Like vlad said, someone's worst action does not determine who they are. I 100% agree. Some time's the most gangster person you know is just a dude that stops the gangsters from acting too hard, if that makes sense. Like he's a gangster against other gangsters but to normal people he's a stand up dude. So if he killed one of those other gangsters, I wouldn't look at him as a bad guy.

      Maxout Bandz 2010 i was 18. First i went into intake where they take your clothes and shoes and give you a thin thermal , slippers and sweats. It was cold as fuck and in a small ass cell i slept on the floor. Then i went to mob 1, with 30 bloods and latin kings in there for robbery , attempt murder etc. then to see a doctor we sat on a skinny bench for prob 15 hours to be seen , getting advice from the og’s on what to do and not to do once were in our permanent housing dormitory ( the crib ). I was mentally preparing myself for the worst. Walking through the halls i saw a kid mopping one second and gets jumped the next. Some co’s are pieces of shit and will let them fight for entertainment then break it up later. Back to the mob 1 i went and was ready to go to my permanent house. They can put you with any gang and you gotta be ready for the worst. Just fight back and youll be left alone but youre gonna get pressed. Right before that they called my name and i was bailed out. Jail wasnt for me i wasnt going back and got my shit together it was a blessing in disguise.

    I was a inmate on Rikers Island in OBCC in 99 working main sanitation where you went from dorm to dorm collecting the garbage. In the main section where the exit of the building was located there was about 20 knives and razors attached to this board. There was a actual sword that was created by a inmate attached to this board. There was a paragraph that stated there were over 1900 inmate on inmate and inmate on staff stabbings and slashings in 1993. 1993 was the beginning of the Blood movement on Rikers. The period that Maino is talking about is before 93 where there was even more violence and less strength in numbers that some gangs provided. By 1999 when I got there the department of corrections made a deal with local district attorneys to re-arrest any inmate who attacked another inmate or co and take them to regular outside court for a new charge where previously you received time in the box. When I arrived in 99 there were signs in every building informing inmates they would be rearrested and receive between 8 1/2 to 25 years. The island is horrible right now as it always was but its no where near where it was.

    He's 100 in this. Comming home after doing alot of yrs is a culture change to the max, adjusting takes time. My advice once ur out don't chase life let it come to u till u find ur lane.

    Great platform.
    I dig and respect what u do.
    Please let them speak.. Respectfully, we don’t care who ur friends are or ur story.
    If u want to talk so much, why don’t u just go on someone else’s show?
    Ur giving them the platform.. Let them tell the story.

      Everyone wonders that, unless you're a freakin convict and stay in and out of jail/prisons and know. Has nothing to do with being gay.
