I'm a veteran with PTSD It's weird how we have a lot in common with inmates, matter of fact a lot of us become inmates. We go through what you have in reverse.... We go from Good to Bad.
Praying 🙏🏾for you my brother everyday too get over the old Heartache stay humble and keep doing your thing May God Continue to bless you to tell your story…🙏🏾
Man amen. Wow man I’m praying for u. I know this is an old post, but it’s new to me. We all fall short man. Blessings to ur family and the victims family 🙏
Almost had me in tears. Getting soft in my old age. 42. Lol. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believed in him shall not parish but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Check out #hardintentions uncle Mitch, Mitch he's got a story very similar to yours. Did 38 years. Brother it takes a real man to show emotion and shed tears. Let it pour out man that shits built up inside. Let it all out.
The courage it took to post this video without editing out your emotions shows just how strong you are. One of the scariest things in this world is being vulnerable, and the fact that you were brave enough to let the world see your vulnerability shows just how much you have changed from the person you were when you went to prison, to the person you are now! Much love and respect for you, and your family! 💜 Wishing you blessings, and happiness 🙏
Alot of us poly's grew up in the church n some like us turn to the streets for 1 reason or another. Did 9yrs on a 10yrs fed bid. I go through the same emotional stuff, feeling like I let my parents down, cause they didn't deserve the pain I put them through...
I feel like this is therapy for you my uce and I feel like I’m in the room with you watching you talk to your therapist . Your story and storytelling takes me on a journey with you . Mad respect and love for you uce . Keep yo head up bruddah
How can we get this Man help at least with paying his court fines? I'm going to show my Son this video for a life lesson. God bless the dead and may God bless you. Salute
Yes I was thinking the same thing I'mma start looking into it and seeing if they're allowed to do that type of s*** get him a go fund me or something set upMy uncle spent his whole life in prison in and out and unfortunately he got killed they don't deserve to have to serve their time to get out to keep having to pay it's no fair
I'm watching you from France, I am an immigrant from a broken country so I saw my fair share of horrors, thankfully I never participated. People who will judge you for being emotional never went through real shit, don't even bother. I have many regrets that I will carry for the rest of my life but I must push through cause I'm still here, still alive and if I stop now then all my struggles were useless. Thank you big brother, merci du fond du coeur.
Anyone that has anything negative to say to you for getting emotional isn't worth the time and energy and have their own issues they can't deal with. It shows you are a man and are well aware of who you are so don't feel bad for showing it. Much love and respect to you for sharing
Real men show emotion brotha love the authenticity of yur self!! Keep it up man love from florida and this is a real eye opener it can happen to anyone!!
Malo lava uso! Onasa'i ma fa'amalosi! Just found your page last night and I'm enjoying your content. Great quality format and storytelling sole. Looking forward to watching your other vids. Malo soifua...
Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your story and the very real way you tell it. You've been through alot, probably more than most people. You've made your mistakes and they were mistakes that changed your life and the lives around you. But in my opinion you are one of the lucky ones, to not only make it out of prison alive and well but to also have the outlook you have on life and everything else. You have a good heart, you are a good person who made a bad choice when you were younger and a different person. But now you use your voice and wisdom from what you've learned to teach. And guys like me appreciate it man. I appreciate you and how you keep it real man. Keep up the good work and keep your head up. Keep helping other people in the way that you do. God Bless to you and your family
Emotions make you humen. Criticism makes you stronger and yet smarter. I know I'm 2 years late seeing this video. But because I have loved ones who served their sentence before or are currently doing so... I seen their tears and the all the agony they bare. But everyone has an outlet, everyone has a way to snap back into realization, that sadness can't always win you over. But conquering the hurt should breed you enlightment. And watching you today you have come a long way. Very proud of a sole doing it justice on this platform. Alofa stuff to you and your aiga 🌺🤙🏾
I watch your videos from time to time. To share your stories is cool. But to share your story this time and cry and still post it. Respect bro. 🙏 stay strong
Just found your channel today and can't stop watching. 1st you are an excellent story teller. You had me captivated from the very beginning. 2nd and more important don't feel bad or weak for showing emotion. That's what's so wrong with our world. Men taught to always be tough. Don't cry, don't show any weakness. It took me almost 40 years to learn the truth. 40 years of burying any emotion. Hiding tears anytime they crept up. Never admitting I can be hurt. I'm so very glad to hear your story. To hear how it affected you, then and now. I've never been in real trouble but could have. Just lucky really. Much love and respect to you. You are now in my prayers.
Man I’m a new sub to this channel. Man oh man I could actually feel ur pain. Damn this 1 hit me. One fight can end in a death and can tear up multiple families. Wishing u the best man.
Big shout out homie, let it out , I got ur back. From Ventura 805. We all sin, lets jus make it to heaven and let God judge us !! peace . Ur brother in Christ , Joey
Hey Ron. Thank you. I am a new subbie, I am a mom of two, one of which is a 7yrs old boy, I plan to have him look at your videos, I cant imagine losing my son or my daughter to the system, When growing up, we all think we have friends until things go left. I am happy you are out, ready and willing to serve your purpose in life, There are alot of lost boys and girls out here Ron. Keep telling these stories. Much love #Thatmom

Guy i went to school with got in a fight n the dude hit his head when he fell n died dude did a few months n then the charges was dropped the judicial system is wild how some people commit a crime n get life n somebody else does the same n they get off
I live in the bay area California. Same area as Vacaville and San Quentin. and love my state. But the laws are insane. And the littlest thing can get you fucked.
I appreciate the emotions and remorse shown. Some people never get to express those. It is better to be emotional than to die bottled up. Keep it going.. You are an inspiration. Making a mistake and correcting it is a lot harder than never making mistakes. Stay up!
It sounded like u were at the wrong place at the wrong time bro. That situation can happen to anybody, I've been there before where I've been in fights and knocking guys out, where they could hit the pavement wrong and boom. Thanks for the story bro u seem like a solid dude. Keep God first. Keep pushin
i dont even know how i fell upon your channel but i support u all the way...i just give u the tightest hug ever...and its ok to cry and let it all out...who cares what others say that ur weak for crying because they are the ones who are weak...you crying and getting emotional shows that u are strong enough to show emotion...and it shows that u are human...you my friend are some strong human being!!!...much love and your and your family are in my prayers...keep your head up and keep telling your story..hugs
Your story really touched my heart and those who cannot see how sincere you are and that you have a tender heart, should not be posting judgemental or condescending comments but should just move on to a different TH-cam channel. I think everyone can appreciate your realness. God bless you and the fact that you are willing to open yourself up to share your story.
USO Ron!!! Live your video man. Looking forward to part 2. I felt all your pain watching this. Your pain was genuine and pure. Much love! Keep doing your thing! It takes courage to do what you do in such a raw form! 🙏🏾
Straight up uso seeing you vulnerable like that made us all feel the raw emotion and affect years and years of dealing with such a fkd up situation , as the story went on I really started feeling that shit myself . You pretty much showed us all how big your fatu (heart) is and straight up uso just want to hug you and let you know you got a USO in me I feel we the same I mean we ain't walked the same path but I can feel everything uso. Love and respect brother for the future and hopefully get to meet you in this life or the next. Much alofas uso all the way from New Zealand South Auckland aka Lil Polynesia ❤🇼🇸
I’m going to have to finish this at a later time. At 23:56 seconds I couldn’t take anymore. This will forever be with you and your family as well as his because it is woven in the fabric of who you are now and while that’s apparently a really good, remorseful and enlighten person, if I can see how much it takes a part of you on these videos, ON camera, I wonder and worry about just how much reliving this for the purpose of REACHING AND TEACHING it’s doing to you and your family OFF camera. Your videos. The stories....are your REACHING moments. This time now. With the world in such chaos.. This is your TEACHING moments. We need them both but not at the expense of you mentally and emotionally. BALANCE friend ☯️ Bringing these emotions to the forefront will take BALANCE. Stay focused Stay strong STAY BLESSED
OG I don’t know if this comment will even be seen by you but your story is saving someone’s life including my young son starting out. He shows a lot of Poly emotions like myself when I was younger. As a youth I was angry at the world and just a hot head but I didn’t have someone like you. Teaching my son and showing my son your story is also helping. Thanks man.
I have listened to your story and I will share it with my nephews you have a message that these youngsters need to listen to, just know that you have at least affected one life in a positive way and that in it self is some type of positive out of this negative situation. I got mad respect for u brother keep your head up.
Yoy drf a real one big song and dont ever be ashamed of anything. God gave you that type of heart and compassion for a reason, own it. Nothing wrong, matter fact it makes you more manly than any other man who cant do this kinda shit. Keep it up biv man I rocks withcha
Phew this is hard to watch, heart wrenching. Deepest condolences to the victims family, and to you Bro; “As far as the east is from the west, so far has HE taken away our sins from us” Psalm 103:12
I found your channel by searching for videos on Richard Ramirez and I’m so glad I subbed. Bless your heart, you seem like such a genuine person. Wishing you all the best 💕
I love your stories, it take a real man to show emotions and the fact that you felt remorse for the victim and his family say a lot about your character. Keep up the good work and stay blessed 🙏
Brother stay u,stay being u, don't change a real man shows his feelings,shares his feelings. If more so called men was just like this the youth of today and past wouldn't be so f up and slow to get it. I am quick to f something up,but quicker to be a real man and have no fear but I am,the ones that stand around me are the same as u. I am proud of u for whatever that is worth. Mad respect and love. A brother from another mother Tj Blessed be...
I just came across your channel yesterday and I’ve been watching your videos nonstop, I can’t help but think about my brother, he’s been in and out of prison for a big chunk of his life and so many things you say just make me think of him and I wish I could just send him your videos, I’ve written down some of your words so I can send to him. Thanks for sharing your stories, god bless 🙏🏼
Bro at some point YOU HAVE TO STOP BEATING YOURSELF UP!!! I don't know you but you are the man I want to become. I can see and feel your growth. One love!
Real emotions are a sign of maturity and remorse. This is probably part of your healing process. To share your experience with everyone. Continue the great work and keep god first Uso.
Let it go brother I know you been there and it hurt but thanks for sharing everything whoever out there watching this video will learn from it and help save our brothers to stop them from going there is not a place to spend the rest of their life. Thank you
Much blessing and love fam . I appreciate your honesty and openness it means a lot because it helps me in ways you will never know . God bless you brother and keep being that beacon of hope for others. Grace and Mercy your way always
Hi Ron, I am new to your channel and wanted to thank you for your honesty! Your story resonated with me on a personal level. I appreciate your willingness to be open and vulnerable!! Hindsight is always 20/20 and I believe it is true that “hurt people...hurt people” but we don’t have that information or understanding when we are young. I truly believe that your story would be beneficial for people to hear. I have a 17 year old son who I plan on sitting down with to watch this again. Love from Philly!!
I admire your courage on how you dealt with your situation and how you owned up to your mistake.A real man always has a space in his heart to Express and say how they honestly feel in front of others.Keep up with this project you got going on your TH-cam channel because it stands out above all other ones in here, but the the difference with you is people could see how real and positive your message is,keep up your good work..
Appreciate your transparency and openness about what happened. As you said, it only takes one bad decision to mess your life up. Hopefully others will think twice about decisions they make.
Damn bro. I don’t even know you and I’m proud of you. You’ve gone through everything under the sun and are still on your feet standing tall. You had one of those lives that would break the overwhelming majority of men. It did me. But you took that AND still managed to grow and improve as a man and a human being. Salute & Respect.
100%agree one of my nephew's class mate was getting bullied!!the day he finally got fed up&fought back,as they were fighting the boy's head hit the brick wall,suffered brain injury passed away days later!!its so heart breaking 16 yr old sweet boy never bothered a soul got 15 yrs
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I’m 44 years old and went through some similar circumstances and I salute you for 🤫😶😶 NOT SNITCHING💪🏾💯 That’s some integrity that most ppl don’t know about.
Praying 🙏🏾for you my brother everyday too get over the old Heartache stay humble and keep doing your thing May God Continue to bless you to tell your story…🙏🏾
What’s up my USO bro thank you for your wisdom and positivity threw these crazy times I dig your Chanel and your stories . Have you ever considered tellin some YA stories a lot of people don’t realize how crazy YA was . Thanks again bro much love N respect from Fairfield CA.
Thank you 🙏 I have considered dropping some stories about how I ended up in CYA! I don’t know when but I’m sure in the future you will hear them. Stay blessed !
My ex was in prison and I had followed him in there because we were still deeply in love. Had wish you were there 30 years ago to help the wives, families cope. Thanks for sharing because your stories take me back to those tuff times. Thanks from another Samoan who can understands the struggle.
It takes a real God fearing man to admit and take responsibility for past actions. To show emotions and be real about it shows your heart. Shows your humanity and spiritual maturity. We all do regret ful things. I pray you give those emotions and pain to God and truly forgive yourself.
Hold ur head up bigg dogg everyone knows real men cry. If u a real man that takes care of ur family and ur business there’s only so long u can hold back the tears. It’s a sign of strength that u can show ur emotions. Much love big bro.
It’s your USO from Portland OR. UCE. 9 straight years in NSP, Nevada State Prison under my belt myself. And I was glad I’d found your channel. Great keep it up cause I like listening to your story’s too. Fa’a maguia le Akua i lau susuga and of cause stay out o troubles too.
Just found your channel and I can relate 100%. Sometimes being a prisoner of your own mind is worse than being locked up in itself. Badger Reception was enough for me to never wanna go back but it’s too easy to go back I respect you changing your life you gotta be 100% committed I been struggling with the one foot in one foot out concept and it always ends with the same results getting back in the revolving door cycle. Keep pushing positivity your motivating people every day
Hey brother. I had to pause video to let you know it's alright to show emotion. You had to bury the pain for 20yrs to survive in prison. Your remorse is proof of your change and regrets. God loves you brother. Dont worry about the haters and fakers who never did time. Keep being you.
hey man,you're human and emotions are fine. they cannot be denied. you strike me as having integrity and i admire that you are doing what you are doing
You are good dude, I can see the pain you carry. I went threw something like this when I was 17. I just found your channel and it’s been helping me get by one day at a time.
People need to understand, people can change, mercy and discretion can be shown, forgiveness can be given. Throughout the entire process he exercised integrity, homeboy was willing to turn himself and still didn't make a statement. It takes a 1 in a million kind of pure person to do that, despite the influences that raised him through youth. Aye uce, your story is inspiring bro. Forreal, I hope your future holds more blessings than you can anticipate. Nobody will ever know the weight people carry. So many people make ignorant remarks that hurt people, it's almost like we don't want people to change, in order for people to change people gotta learn to forgive. It's almost like we don't want people to change.
Ron you are a GREAT MAN AND GOD FORGIVES. Stay strong and keep positive. Thanks for the video sir. It’s truly helps others more then you even know. 🙏🏽💯👀💪🏾
Been following your vids and gotta say you're a Warrior Uso! Don't let the negativity from others get you down, because no one is perfect! I guarantee you the very people talking shit don't have the balls to do what you did and own up to their mistakes! That's what makes you human. It doesn't make you any less of a man for expressing your emotions! I can see that you have a good heart! Stay strong Uso and may God Bless you always..
I am humbled by all the love, support and prayers from everyone in this comment section. I give all praises to God 🙏
Nah, Homie...
Thank You, you helping get through some hard times..

I will talk about this in a later video! Stay blessed 🙏
A ton of Respect from me Ron. You have a lot of courage and are strong.
OG I don’t know if this comment will even be seen by you but your story is saving someone’s life including my young son starting out. He shows a lot of Poly emotions like myself when I was younger. As a youth I was angry at the world and just a hot head but I didn’t have someone like you. Teaching my son and showing my son your story is also helping. Thanks man.
Thank you 🙏 I’m glad that the stories are helping! Blessings to you and your family..
Yo uce Ron! Thanks for the inspiration bro i’m watching and following in the cut. Respect

I got mad respect for u brother keep your head up.

This is The Realist of all prison stories I have seen. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. Stay strong
Thank you stay blessed David🙏
Bro, sharing this and bringing awareness to people to avoid the mistakes you did is how you can make it up. Much respect for that!
Half the people talking don’t even know what it feels like uce! Let that shit out ITS OK! We stand with you my uce, it was WRONG PLACE WRONG TIME🤝🏽
I love your stories, it take a real man to show emotions and the fact that you felt remorse for the victim and his family say a lot about your character. Keep up the good work and stay blessed 🙏
Brother stay u,stay being u, don't change a real man shows his feelings,shares his feelings. If more so called men was just like this the youth of today and past wouldn't be so f up and slow to get it.
I am quick to f something up,but quicker to be a real man and have no fear but I am,the ones that stand around me are the same as u.
I am proud of u for whatever that is worth.
Mad respect and love.
A brother from another mother

I just came across your channel yesterday and I’ve been watching your videos nonstop, I can’t help but think about my brother, he’s been in and out of prison for a big chunk of his life and so many things you say just make me think of him and I wish I could just send him your videos, I’ve written down some of your words so I can send to him. Thanks for sharing your stories, god bless 🙏🏼
Thank you, Blessings to you and your family 🙏
my older brother told me abt your channel and its real interesting to hear your story, mad respect uce
Bro at some point YOU HAVE TO STOP BEATING YOURSELF UP!!! I don't know you but you are the man I want to become. I can see and feel your growth. One love!
Thank you Zmark! Stay blessed 🙏
Real emotions are a sign of maturity and remorse. This is probably part of your healing process. To share your experience with everyone. Continue the great work and keep god first Uso.
Thank you 🙏
Tell your story brother, people need to see and hear this. NO CENSORSHIP! If one puts you down or talks shit, 1000 have your back. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!
Thank you 🙏
Let it go brother I know you been there and it hurt but thanks for sharing everything whoever out there watching this video will learn from it and help save our brothers to stop them from going there is not a place to spend the rest of their life. Thank you
Much blessing and love fam . I appreciate your honesty and openness it means a lot because it helps me in ways you will never know . God bless you brother and keep being that beacon of hope for others. Grace and Mercy your way always
Thank you 🙏 🙏
You are Blessed Brother Ron, you have been granted the opportunity to rebuild your mirror.
Hi Ron, I am new to your channel and wanted to thank you for your honesty! Your story resonated with me on a personal level. I appreciate your willingness to be open and vulnerable!! Hindsight is always 20/20 and I believe it is true that “hurt people...hurt people” but we don’t have that information or understanding when we are young. I truly believe that your story would be beneficial for people to hear. I have a 17 year old son who I plan on sitting down with to watch this again. Love from Philly!!
I admire your courage on how you dealt with your situation and how you owned up to your mistake.A real man always has a space in his heart to Express and say how they honestly feel in front of others.Keep up with this project you got going on your TH-cam channel because it stands out above all other ones in here, but the the difference with you is people could see how real and positive your message is,keep up your good work..
Thank you Andy 🙏
Appreciate your transparency and openness about what happened. As you said, it only takes one bad decision to mess your life up. Hopefully others will think twice about decisions they make.
Damn bro. I don’t even know you and I’m proud of you. You’ve gone through everything under the sun and are still on your feet standing tall. You had one of those lives that would break the overwhelming majority of men. It did me. But you took that AND still managed to grow and improve as a man and a human being. Salute & Respect.
100%agree one of my nephew's class mate was getting bullied!!the day he finally got fed up&fought back,as they were fighting the boy's head hit the brick wall,suffered brain injury passed away days later!!its so heart breaking 16 yr old sweet boy never bothered a soul got 15 yrs
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I’m 44 years old and went through some similar circumstances and I salute you for 🤫😶😶 NOT SNITCHING💪🏾💯
That’s some integrity that most ppl don’t know about.
Thank you 🙏
You're a true humble man bro. You have changed into an inspiring man. God bless you 🙏💯

Thank you 🙏 I have considered dropping some stories about how I ended up in CYA! I don’t know when but I’m sure in the future you will hear them. Stay blessed !
Thank you bro and you do the same.
Appreciate your honesty and openness. I wish you the best brother on your success.
My ex was in prison and I had followed him in there because we were still deeply in love. Had wish you were there 30 years ago to help the wives, families cope.
Thanks for sharing because your stories take me back to those tuff times. Thanks from another Samoan who can understands the struggle.
Blessings to you and your family sis 🙏
I felt your pain brotha. It’s tough but we are strong and must go on. Much love and respect ✊🏽
It takes a real God fearing man to admit and take responsibility for past actions. To show emotions and be real about it shows your heart. Shows your humanity and spiritual maturity. We all do regret ful things. I pray you give those emotions and pain to God and truly forgive yourself.
Thank you 🙏
Amen Bro.
Hold ur head up bigg dogg everyone knows real men cry. If u a real man that takes care of ur family and ur business there’s only so long u can hold back the tears. It’s a sign of strength that u can show ur emotions. Much love big bro.
It’s your USO from Portland OR. UCE. 9 straight years in NSP, Nevada State Prison under my belt myself. And I was glad I’d found your channel. Great keep it up cause I like listening to your story’s too. Fa’a maguia le Akua i lau susuga and of cause stay out o troubles too.
Thank you my Uso 👊💪
30 to Life you got it uce.
Nice to see you got your stuff together bro,you have a talent for telling a story,and keep an audience locked on .faamanuia le Atua!!
Just found your channel and I can relate 100%. Sometimes being a prisoner of your own mind is worse than being locked up in itself. Badger Reception was enough for me to never wanna go back but it’s too easy to go back I respect you changing your life you gotta be 100% committed I been struggling with the one foot in one foot out concept and it always ends with the same results getting back in the revolving door cycle. Keep pushing positivity your motivating people every day
Hey brother. I had to pause video to let you know it's alright to show emotion. You had to bury the pain for 20yrs to survive in prison. Your remorse is proof of your change and regrets. God loves you brother. Dont worry about the haters and fakers who never did time. Keep being you.
You are a real, and true man.
You are never alone.
Thank you for your energy.
Thank you 🙏
hey man,you're human and emotions are fine. they cannot be denied. you strike me as having integrity and i admire that you are doing what you are doing
Thank you very much 🙏
I've seen just a few of your videos. They changed my life. Thank you for this. Wow.
Stay strong 💪
You are good dude, I can see the pain you carry. I went threw something like this when I was 17. I just found your channel and it’s been helping me get by one day at a time.
I wish you healing brother Eso... and the victims family... I can't imagine being on either side... brother thanks for sharing... Much respect
Thank you Glen! Blessings to you and yours 🙏
After what you have been through I think you came out a better man. Stay strong and keeping it real will help others.
Thank you 🙏
People need to understand, people can change, mercy and discretion can be shown, forgiveness can be given. Throughout the entire process he exercised integrity, homeboy was willing to turn himself and still didn't make a statement. It takes a 1 in a million kind of pure person to do that, despite the influences that raised him through youth. Aye uce, your story is inspiring bro. Forreal, I hope your future holds more blessings than you can anticipate. Nobody will ever know the weight people carry. So many people make ignorant remarks that hurt people, it's almost like we don't want people to change, in order for people to change people gotta learn to forgive. It's almost like we don't want people to change.
Thank you 🙏
Ron you are a GREAT MAN AND GOD FORGIVES. Stay strong and keep positive. Thanks for the video sir.
It’s truly helps others more then you even know.
🙏🏽💯👀💪🏾
🙏🙏
The fact that he is actually showing emotion makes this video. Super heavy sad story.
A lot of people don't know this but one of the strongest things you can do as a man is cry and show your feelings.
Been following your vids and gotta say you're a Warrior Uso! Don't let the negativity from others get you down, because no one is perfect! I guarantee you the very people talking shit don't have the balls to do what you did and own up to their mistakes! That's what makes you human. It doesn't make you any less of a man for expressing your emotions! I can see that you have a good heart! Stay strong Uso and may God Bless you always..
