YEET
The jail videos are my favorite. Not so much into the gaming videos, but i know its a hot genre these days. But I can't get enough of your jail stories.. Just like I can't get enough of watching those Lockup shows and stuff.
Please react to rdr 2 train heat or bank heist (it’s made by rockstar who made gta v)
GTA part 2?
Larry Lawton do an episode on 69
Did I search for this? No.
Did I watch the whole thing? Yes!
same
Same ha
You and him dickheads..
Same
Not sure why the TH-cam algorithm thought I would be interested in this, but I guess it knows me better than I know myself. Seams interesting. Think I'll stick around
Normal criminals: “I need a lawyers”
Me knowing I am guilty: “I need Larry”
1000th like 😂
vinnay klair 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 omg you happened to be the thousandth like XD lol 😂
U better call saul
You mean I better call Saul
Sebastián Caris better loan a Larry
I spent 47 days in a woman’s jail which was nothing compared to prison, but it was enough to know that I NEVER wanted to go back. If you haven’t spent time incarcerated at some facility, it’s so hard to understand how depressing and what a crazy world it is. It is its own world.
Yo S A A A A M E
True
That is so hot did you bang the guards?
I was incarcerated in the Kentucky DOC from 2001 until 2012 and ....knock on wood...I've been out ever since. I ran across this channel and video while browsing on TH-cam. This is 100% spot on. Larry, I can tell you're a good solid convict and it's a damn good thing you're doing here. There are many people who need to know this stuff. You have gained a subscriber and a fellow con. ☮️✌️
Your success story following your criminal background is an inspiration to convicts far and wide.
Start a TH-cam channel that would be cool!
why lie
Stop doing crime and no problem
hey man, stay out there and good luck!
Did you see the 9/11 attacks on a prison TV or was it after september that you got incarcerated
I kinda wanna know what the protocol is when a terrorist attack happens and your in jail
I made my grandson watch this because he needs to know these things. He is now prepared for preschool.
Only 3 likes (inc. me)? Now THAT'S a crime.
Lmao
☠️
I hope he survives.
American preschool, I assume
Me: steps into prison
Larry: this was your first mistake. You just died
Lmfao
Lol
I’m dead lol
Oo Ik Oo oooo Oo Oo I Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Ik Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Ik Oo Oo Oo oo o Oo I Oo I Oo Ik Ik Oo I O Ik I I Oo Ik Ik Oo Oo Ik
The heist is already over
Kinda ironic, that its usually people who don't really care much for rules, who end up in jail, then there are so many rules to abide to once they are in there.
Maybe it can make you a better person?
Larry, I get what you’re saying here. I have been a nurse for many, many (350 I think) years and spent about 7+ of them in corrections. I worked in medical, ran medical emergencies to pods, yards, etc, and was always, but always treated well by men and women. Even in lockdown situations, gang fights, etc, inmates always protected me. Sometimes the formed a circle around me, sometimes they pushed me in an area so they could protect me. Later, I asked why and was told that I always treated them with respect and treated them fairly in medical, making sure they got treated, saw a Dr, got their meds on time, etc. It touched me. I only thought I was treating them fairly and respectfully like I did everyone else. Nobody ever tried to get me to get anything special or pull any funny stuff. Maybe it was because I was
40, but I choose to think they were just good to me because I was good to them.
You were probably the only person in there that treated them as equals.
You've been a nurse for 350 years? Holy mother Theresa!
You worked for 350 years? wow
You used your vámpír powers to glamour them.
The most important rule: Dont go to prison
Yep
No, it's that you don't join ceiling gang my dude. That's cringe
Darksteiner facts
There are some people in prison that did nothing wrong.
Can get threatened with prison for telling jokes in my country. That's why I'm researching Larry's videos, lol
If a documentary series about people who own tigers can get made, a documentary about Larry should 100% be made
I mean... There's way more going on in that documentary. That shit was crazy.
Im 100% sure it will happen some day
Martin scorsese has joined the chat
Josh Flynn A Scorsese movie would great. The same formula that he used in The Wolf of Wall Street would make it incredible
@@pauljames1807 have you even listened to larrys stories? theres way more going on in larrys life than in the tiger kings life..
I did a 5 piece from 2015-early 2020. I watch this man because he's honest, straight to the point, and it helps keep me on the straight and narrow.
I did 1 year way back when. Now I'm a Primary Care Physician and Preceptor at the Regional Trauma center. I know one year is nothing but it shows you can cone back if you try
U did one year in prison and your a doctor
Today I learned, I would not last long in prison.
You maybe right but also you'd be surprised about what you learn about yourself in prison
I learned how happy I am that I live in Europe
Not trying to judge you too much, but I feel like you should have already know that lol
Mischa Europeans go to prison too.
@@stevenp25100 LOL Well, yeah, I kind of did, but fortunately I didn't become a jewel thief and get caught, so fortunately no first hand knowledge 😂
I feel this would be more effective than Scared Straight. Just being calmly told what your new reality is going to be is scarier than some guy yelling at you.
Very true. My father has spent a total of about 20 years all around, and he hated the "scared straight" program. Says he refused to run and yell at a bunch of kids, and it probably made more sense to just tell them the reality of what goes on if you wanna keep on being a "badass".
I disagree. Have you seen some of the kids on that show? They would not care about this video. It would come in one ear and out the other. They actually need to SEE what it’s like in prison.
@@Akotski-ys9rr It depends on the kid I guess. That would work for most of them
Mephallica Great name/profile pic
@@alexandershaer1079 Thanks lol.
“You’re gonna see punks getting fucked in the corner sometimes” 😭😭 I’m sorry but I died right here
Thanks for your valuable advice Larry. Your keen and intelligent observations are bound to help many an inmate (or person that still needs to serve a sentence) to survive without having to have to learn through their own experience (for which they might not have the time for learning).
Imagine being trapped in a cell with a guy who killed his former cell mate… omg
walk yourself. If you find yourself in real mortal danger, you go to the bubble and refuse housing. they will give you 9 yards and want to know why. yiu tell them nothing - absolutely nothing, and they will move you.
SAD PEPE been there
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief lmaooooo
Larry please make another video with your brother
Larry Lawton ❤️❤️
I wonder how many people are watching this without planning on going to prison
who ever plans on going to prison
@@marcopetit8419 mr frumunga
D M literally was just about to comment this 😂😂
The types of people who go to prison don’t watch such videos
*empty void* - wrong I’m looking at a wrongful conviction of 5-15 due to crooked cops and justice system. Out on bond rn 🤦🏽♂️
You are an example of people who do bad things but have a good heart and are not bad people and you have changed so many peoples lives. God bless you.
I learned at a very young age , being told without having to be told, if you go on the wrong side of law 'you be honest'. That bit of advise has probably kept me out of prison these many years.
Edit, the other piece of life advise is , 'if the cops catch you, don't say a thing and call us."
If Larry sends you a heart on your comment, you'd better send him two hearts back.
This is gold
Almost never do...but..literally LOL!
Good levity
I have 50 hearts so I guess I can share
I will send more than two hearts cuz he is lit AF
You can tell how pissed the toilet situation had him

Hey Larry, I really enjoy watching your shows as they are very informative and factual. You bring to us the unedited and down to earth realities of prison life. I have learned many interesting facts after viewing your videos. Larry, the people of this country need to know the truth about what is really happening inside our prisons. as it will eventually affect them when the person is released. Thank you very much for all your hard work. Take care bro, Jimmy.
I've just started watching your videos, and I must say, I have been loving it so far! Keep up the great work! Truly valuable insight!
The worst thing about being in prison is having to be with other prisoners.
Not necessarily. Some guys are isolated.
@Anthony Lopez yeah you're just saying that now cuz u ain't in the pen once u get there you'll know
@Robin I wouldn't LMo
@T 34 that just doesn't happen lmao
@T 34 no it isnt lmao my dad has been to jail and its nothing like what people say about it lmao
Me: breathes Larry: you just died.
This was your first mistake
Extremely valuable - well presented. Larry, you figured out a great career! Helping others by sharing knowledge. I hope I never have to use what I learn from you (although much of it can apply to life out of prison, also). Stay well...
Larry, that 'Bad Sport' episode with Randy was BY FAR the best in the series. Crazy story
Someone has to get this guy on the joe rogan podcast
FACTS BRO
Yessir
Yes yes yes yes
BIG 📠
Or on Ear Hustle
This is gotta be the most badass man of all time. He was the biggest jewel thief in America, and he changed into an honest man telling good ass stories. Respect man.
Joseph thanks Joe. I appreciate that
@@LarryLawtonJewelThief what would u say to a guy that's new to prison and he is not built for that kind of life, normal guys like me or any other average guy would get punked for sure.
Also,if u fight a guy for badmouthing u,don't he gang up with his friends on u?
Not everyone is 6.4 tall so how would an average guy survive with experienced criminals?
Joseph he’s a robber not a thief thief sounds like he broke into their house while they slept
@@bricktea3645 go to PC hahaha
Emilio Pena You’re thinking of the difference between robbery and burglary. By definition, a thief is someone who takes things without force or violence.
Larry this one was top shelf! Some great points for the newbies.
Thank you , great content!
🇨🇦❤️🙏🏻
that part about the prison encouraging segregation for their own benefit was heartbreaking
Politics also does that, just looks at every dictator ever, if any of our politicians could force it they would absolutely do it, for now most of them just limit to suggesting it without enforcing it.
Racism is just trash.
So just to be clear, look at people, don’t look at people, befriend the right people and the wrong people, eat in one place but don’t eat in the same place, and never not give a guy his soup
You sound like Boris giving tips for Corona😂
@@diddlesssssss_ssss4343 Lmfaoo
Sean Blackburn close. LOL
Great channel, watched a couple of your videos and subscribed.
I've never been to prison, i came very close in my late teens but got a decent solicitor (lawyer) and a great barrister who got me a fine, an electronic tag and a lot of community service. That experience and the thought of prison put me on the straight and narrow.
Thanks for the tips. I figured I allready knew or could guess most of these, but I had no idea about a lot of these, thanks, they're sure to come in handy when I slip up one of these and finally get caught
"good dude, I trusted him"
"why?"
"ain't no axes in prison"
Haha
People have reasons for what they do - if that reason isn't around you then you're okay. Psychopaths are always dangerous because of this, while most people only want to maintain their safety, dignity, and sometimes power (the 'callers'). When I was in the murderers were considered most dangerous because they don't get any more time for killing you, too - but if you keep killing people you WILL fall. The most dangerous moment was when a guy 100 pounds more than me and a cop killer wanted to go through my mates items and I told him I wouldn't allow it - "go through mine" - respect was earned that day and, happy to say, I am still alive.
@эмиль к. If you haven't done anything yet, then please do not. My experience in the pen was that I had my days mapped out in front of me and the people who _really_ suffered daily were my family. I believe that post-soviet countries have tougher systems than we do, but I will repeat what I said above - only watch out for the psychopaths; after that, just do not piss anyone off. If you show respect you greatly reduce your chances of being a mark. It will be a tough decision where to "draw the line" when someone fails to respect you. Most people - in prison too - don't want to fight over nothing. You will certainly meet up with someone who will test you wherever you are, and if it is in prison then people are watching MUCH more than you know.
Dont leave your loved ones because you got angry. If you were here I could suggest resources to help, perhaps there are some there. I mean help you to manage your anger.
Peace
@эмиль к. best wishes. Seriously.
@Western Dragon probably. The question is, where's that point?
For some people, that point is when you murder their family.
For others, that point is when you accidentally cut them off in traffic.
Not all points are created equal!
Random guy: leaves some toothpaste at the bottom of the sink
Larry: *so you have chosen death*
Epic gamer channel lol
Nah you just clean that shit up lol
You shouldn't have to clean it up cause you don't spit in the sink .. bottom line
Most people use the toilet to spit where I went, but thats jail.
Vincent Dolente I used my cell mates butthole to spit in...
No matter where life takes people. It’s always a good idea to listen to advice. Especially when it involves survival. Thank you for this information!
Man I remember watching this during lockdown Larry Lawton has the best storytelling on TH-cam 💯
Im going to file these tips in the “hope to never use drawer”.
Right
Got that right Not a fun place
Yeah those drawers dissapear pretty quickly on the guys that are worried...
Right next to CPR and my Glock 17
@chang chang stfu chang chang u ain't hard. U got ur cheeks clapped by bbc on the daily
"Prison system pit races against each other so they don't have them team up against the guards". Sounds like a great analogy for life outside of prison too and the media.
@@sukt00 your comment is in fact more underrated. Due to Commie shit going around in the world we forget who we are
It also makes it easier to know who is on whose side.
@@ingwarostapenko6874 It's because that are our basic instincts. However if you are able to put some rationality and humanity on top, things start to change.
Every system outside of the prison is a prison system. The have the same foam beds in nurses offices in schools as they do in jails and prisons. America is a prison system. Exactly what System of a Down sung in "Prison Song."
10 years 6 months and 1 day in VA DOC race relations were fine no racial tensions and co's did not pit one another against each other. Hate to admit it but VA does a pretty good job when it comes to corrections, lots of courses, job training and groups. Number 1 rule "mind your own f'ing business" number 2 do your own time. Remember these 2 rules you'll be fine.
You broke this shit down the way it needed to be said, keep your head up brother
Love the videos Larry. I've been binge watching for a week now lol. Stay blessed brother!
At least now I know that if I go to prison, I'm gonna die the first day.
You never die on day 1 or 3 for that matter but weeks 1 through 30 are hard once you've established yourself you should be fine
@@colewilder7353 have you been in prison?
@@rsm_sway2034 prison no but ive been in 6 jails my aunts wife was in prison as was my step father as have several family friends.
ive been in prison and tbh the main thing i learnt in prison that prisons easier than i thought😂😂, but i went to prison in uk dem american prisons be different
Had to spend the night in county once, and while waiting to see the Judge, the guy next to me could see I was nervous and kindly talked me through the process. Super nice guy. A few days later I see him on the news, a super-max prisoner suing the state, who had been convicted of killing his and his girlfriends family with an axe. No more underage drinking for me.
Just shows not all criminals are 'bad people' (murder is usually a crime of passion after all), not to mention the fact there are plenty of law-abiding citizens who aren't 'good people.'
@@jase_llan No, it demonstrates the complexity of the human person who can tend to be caring and gentle to a sadistic murderer.
@Jeff Bridger read Rafael's post, he nails it - it's not defending a murderer at all, just that people can be driven to do almost anything if pushed far enough.
@Jeff Bridger did I say at any point that murder could ever be justified? I'm just saying that those who would otherwise be seen as 'good people' are capable of it, and likewise that 'bad people' may never commit a violent crime in their life but still be horrible.
Jeff Bridger it’s almost as if people do that daily when they support cops 😳
I've been binge watching your videos for the past week lol I enjoy your content... It really helps my nights at work go by with ease 🔥 🙏
Thank you for sharing your experiences. It's appreciated.
“I had a cell mate who killed a guy with an axe handle...good dude.”
That got me 😂 keep up the work Larry, can’t wait to see you at 1 million subs!
Bit morbid but yeh
@boomgoesblitzhound 1st time was just the intro to get you interested. It was edited.
@Jacob Stephany who you gonna brag to Lmao your cousins or someone else in the family?? Haha I can see it just now " hello everybody! Wanted to let you fellows know that I have been watching Larry since half a million subs. I'm pretty cool because of that. Do you agree?" Lol
He is a lousy violent criminal , nothing good or cool about it. Disgusting
NealCassady who larry or the axe dude both are good dudes
I do love this guy describing his life and being like “DONT DO IT. But if you’re gonna do it... this is how I’d do it. BUT DONT DO IT”
Right. Now I'm a good guy lets see if I can capitalize on my stupidity in life. I'm not impressed with guy.

I did a year & a day.
and I did it without ever smashing anybody's face against thematter fact I only seen very few fights the whole time I was there.
this guy seems to hype it up to be something that it is not, perhaps you've watched too many prison movies sir.
I did my time On the Huntsville Ellis unit.
I got out and I didn't go back.
Simple no prison mentality, it was just a chapter of my life I put behind me.
Maybe this cat needs to do the same thing.

Step 3- you are no longer in prison... welcome to the afterlife
Plot twist: Youre going to hell for eternal imprisonment
LOL Yeah, I know right? In movies and on TV and stuff, there's always that prisoner who tells the story of how when he got locked up, he looked for the biggest, toughest, meanest looking guy there and slapped him in the face to pick a fight with him. I've never been to jail a day in my life, but that always struck me as pretty awful advice...unless of course, you WANT to be beaten into a meaty pulp or killed outright.
@@JoeRoganAndMoreShorts Just start over with Step 1.
@@solusaldrain and this time you're sent to heaven, haha
😂🤣
Mr Lawton , I really enjoy the videos. I am a retired C.O. for the state of Ohio. You definitely speak the truth. I get a smile on my face sometimes because you bring back a memory I haven’t thought about for a long time. I always showed the convicts respect 1st and if I didn’t get a respectful response back then the attitude changed. You are certainly correct about the cleanliness aspect. I always tell people that the people who show the most respect for their fellow man are convicts. If you don’t show respect then the outcome was almost always violent and sometimes deadly. Have you addressed the differences between convicts and inmates? I’ve always said “ we are all men regardless of what path we have chosen and I could be standing where you are if I had continued in my original chosen path. I just stopped BEFORE I got caught.” Good job! Take care!
I gotta say I watch your videos more than anything including tv. I've never been locked up nor do I plan on it but your stories are absolutely captivating and entertaining. I am for sure gonna try your white lightning reciepe! Keep up the great vids Larry, you have a following for sure =)
“I don’t care if his weenies hanging out. He’s got his shank and his boots” 🤣 I died

it is good to be back, Larry.... I thought I was facing 6 months of jailtime for a 3rd DUI.... Luckily, the DUI charge dropped and the possession charge was dismissed, due to my effort in recovery treatment & maintaining sobriety After my arrest, I was terrified to watch your stuff... gave me anxiety and panic attacks..... In the aftermath of all of that, I had to come back to your channel. Glad I did... and Yes, I am staying clean and out of trouble.
Joey from NJ
I know your comment is a bit older. But I'm dealing with something similar. 2nd dui, .27 alcohol level. Very scared about doing jail time, just hoping with my alcohol abuse treatment I did and continuing to work on my mental health that hopefully I'll be able to avoid jail time. Was there anything else in particular that got your case dropped other then what u mentioned?
Good deal dude...i caught my 3rd DWI & possession of a firearm...did 2 years lost my beloved grandma idk i could of gotten the charges reduced...the gun charge was dismissed...its not really bad way better than county but a felony following u sux...i quit drinking eventually...gud luck dude
1st dui charge 18 one of my friend (passenger) and i had a terrible injury so they charged me with "aggrevated assault while dui" and series of other dui charges I plead no guilty and currently I want to take this to a jury trial
@@robroy7494 Hope u went to prison and learned your lesson....DUI kills ppl everyday and is a selfish act that can be avoided

This guy needs to be a consultant on a serious, gritty prison simulator game.
No joke, you could see an accurate game like that selling really well.
I agree. I know I could be a great consultant.
Kinda like "GTA" but in prison... but with micromanagement like financial strategy games or the x-com serios and a bit of RPG, building skills and traits, and with Karma, like in Fallout. In picking your character. Fighter, manager, weaponcrafter, and enrolling in faction/group.
Yea, that's be bad-ass! I'd play that game.
Dude that would be straight flames... like if Hard Time was even remotely realistic
Prison is the most boring place on earth lol. The only thing more boring would be a game about it.
@@im0uthere If they can make games about driving a truck or farming interesting then there's a market.
Being stabbed is just the sort of thing that upsets me. If it happened to me I'd honestly hate it.
Yeah I'd feel alittle inconvenienced if I got stabbed aswell.
@@AlextheRed1917 honestly it's soooooo annoying
"What ho, old bean! Why did you insert your makeshift blade into my sternum? Quite ruddy and all that."

It would totally go through me!
Love your videos, my grandfather did 4 stints in prison, there is so much he can't talk about, thanks to your vids I can relate to him just a little better. Thank you.
I did only 3 days in a county jail for slamming into a cop car on a DUI. These videos would have equally scared me and prepared me. You’re doing a great public service. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
Next time don't drink and drive! No sympathy from me
If you only did 3 days for crashing into the cops when you were driving drunk, that's only because the cops were drunk too and didn't want to get caught so they went easy on you!
As a 16 year correctional officer in a state penitentiary, Larry has good wisdom to share. He wraps it well with the advice, "I don't want you to go to prison. . . " That is the best advice.
I agree I worked in jails and prisons for over 20 years. “ I don’t want you to go prison “ best advice ever.
24 years here , 16 months to go until I retire . Another rule , as much as you might hate the COs , don't fuk with them they might just save your life someday .
It sounds like prisons are circuses run by clowns on purpose so that the weakest prisoners who made silly mistakes like auto theft are dominated or killed off by the ones who are there for quadruple homicide. If I had to go to prison for any length of time, I'd rather be locked up by myself in an 10 x 10 cell 24/7/365 as long as I had a toilet, shower, and sink in the corner.
It's cute how you say "If you don't want to go to prison". With over 70,000 pages of laws at the Federal level and over 150,000 pages if you include State and Local laws, how do you expect anyone to NOT go to prison these days. A few years ago, a man was sentenced to 8 years 1 month in prison because the business he owned for 30 years shipped lobster tails in the wrong box. Another man was sentenced to 2 years in prison because he added fruit flavoring to vodka and served it in a bar that he owned. Another couple almost got 30 years in prison for clearing a flooded log jamb from their property. With laws like these, I'm surprised everyone in the USA isn't in prison right now.
A while ago, I hurt my back and I was prescribed some prescription anti-inflammatory drugs. I got over it, but still had some pills left. About 2 or 3 years later, my Aunt was knocked down by a horse and he stepped on her chest and broke her ribs, but couldn't see a doctor until the next day. My mother called me up because she thought I had some pain pills and asked me if I had any left. If I gave my mother a prescription pain pill to give to my Aunt, and a cop found out about it, all 3 of us could have been sentenced to multiple years or decades in prison for drug trafficking.
1 out of 3 American adults has a criminal record. 1 out of 10 has a felony record. Every year the prison system lets out 650,000 prisoners so they have room for 650,000 more people coming in. America is a police state and it's not going to last for much longer.
@@karozans Life is so crazy when you just think about the numbers. Do an extra 15 minutes at work twice a week unpaid and you're giving them an entire day of your life for free at the end of the year.
@@phuckayumang2381 Indeed.
Here's an unwritten rule: NEVER look in anyone else's cell. Whether your passing by it or even having a conversation with one of its occupants. Keep your eyes to yourself.
Why?
@@adrianjayanursaleh9742 no one wants you to "eye-fuck" their stuff.
You have apparently done this before
@@adrianjayanursaleh9742 you might see something you can't unsee, like a dude jacking off, or a punk getting f*****
I did time in Atlanta. Don’t look in the cells period. They might be jacking the meat on one of the guards.
I’m in the middle of my first semester of highschool I’ve learned more from your videos than I have from highschool so far
The thought of prison scares the living crap out of me. I love how Larry uses his own experiences to help others.
It feels good knowing that there's an intelligent, reformed ex-inmate who's making a decent living through creating content, which probably is pretty therapeutic, too. There're so many people who went through the system that end up being so miserable trying to re-adjust to a life in a society; it's good to see another one "not bite the dust".
Exactly! What a great example of someone turning their life experience into a legitimate source of income. Well done sir!

Hell yea. I did 2 yrs in prison myself. Not too long to lose touch w society but long enough to kno prison isnt for any games
Yeah I didn't do much time. Less than a year after credit from county and good time. But my inner conviction from 30 years of being an addict and living in the shadows also makes it a struggle at times to adapt. Don't get me wrong I'm doing well for myself. In just 3 years went from being a homeless heroin addict with legal issues to now having an apartment, truck, good people in my corner, just started my own little painting business. Plenty of work and at that point where I may be able to give out a job to someone. Hoping to even buy my first home by this time next year... But yeah I do struggle with social anxieties and feelings of awkwardness. Not always some times are better than others but it's not fun when I do.
@@ExquisiteTouch.M.M.P , Hang in there , best of luck to you.

Enjoyed your video, good luck to you , loved your motivation posters. Cheers from Oz
Who else to take prison advice from, than the man himself. Heisenberg.
Damn, he does look like Heisenberg
to me he looks a lot like penn jillette 🤔
He look like a dumb heisenberg 😂😂😂
Except Heisenberg never went to prison...
I love how chilled he is when talking about prison and murders
And dudes getting fucked in a corner
He is a lousy violent criminal , nothing good or cool about it. Disgusting
@NealCassady Why did you come to watch his video and comment here if you think that?
@@kreterakete he has clearly changed. He wants prison reform, more help for troubled youth etc. Have you even seen more than one of his videos?
NealCassady he’s sharing stories and many of these stories help to shed light on what prison is like and what some people have to do when they’re inside to survive. Bringing awareness of the ugly side of prison is important to reforming it into something that doesn’t dehumanize and not rehabilitate people
even though this man was once a con, and is talking about the terrifying worlds of the broken prison system, I feel a wholesome vibe coming from him
Hey, the man robbed the banks money. He wasnt out there mugging little old ladies...
Thanks for this I was planning on going next week
I love how fiercely you stick up for your cellmate
"Good dude."
"What do you mean? He--"
"GOOD DUDE."
“10 unwritten rules of prison” *frantically erases notes*
The fellow you had to discipline did this type thing all his life despite his family and friends trying to get him to "clean up". You taught him a valuable life lesson.
Larry, you are a gift from God. Your dignified demeanor and delivery are impeccable. You have no idea how much your teaching has turned my life around. And set me and many others on the road to redemption. God bless you
Thanks this will be very helpful
Lol
I was just thinking: I wonder if anyone is here because they are getting ready for prison?
That's gotta suck.
Tomorrow's hot news story: "TH-cam channel named MVPerry arrested for trying to steal a dog's sandwich!" Or something.
Wait what
Whatever you have planned, i only ask that you film it!
I love that picture in the background "When people undermine your dreams, predict your doom or criticize you, remember they're telling you their story, not yours." Gold !
Hey Larry new to the channel, As a black man I fully appreciate the notes 📝 And I’m glad there’s OGs like you that can break it down for us. Hopefully I’ll never have to be in this situation though. 🤞🏾
Just the way you described the showers and mentioning R&D tells me you were in the fed system. Great video.

"My celly killed a guy with an axe handle...good dude...
Only because he thought being a Jewel Thief was glamorous Larry was spared.
Well maybe he had a reason.
Theres his method of thinking exposed
You'll find alot of them are pretty normal aside from their charges.....met a ton and was expecting different....but they eat, sleep, shit same as me
No, really a good dude! Lol
Larry thanks for your story and advice.
Out of curiosity, did you ever meet someone in prison that was actually innocent of whatever crime they were convicted of? If so, how were those people treated?
Everyone in prison is innocent don'tcha know!? LoL

Is that a Shawshank Redemption quote?
@@couragew6260 Well, I wasn't intending it to be, but now that you mention it, it is in the movie!
It doesn't really apply. You don't wanna get in conversations that deep with anyone about their specific crimes to begin with
Yes, Andy dufresne
So basically if you fart on your sell mate just prepare to die after 10pm.
yep
Yup
Nagato2k do you mean cell?

If you fart on your sell mate, he won't sell you stuff any more.

I've had enough psycho cellies. That was early on. (19 yrs, 8 1/2yrs in solitary). After a while they declared me too dangerous to have a cellmate (even in reception). Sooo much better.
It's much better to know something like this than not.
you are 3 years old, if you look like in your pfp, how can you even write.
@@hotpot328 maybe the pfp is their kid? I really have no idea, but perhaps.

Same story
TH-cam predict that you might go to prison. How kind.
Your comment reminded me of starship troopers.
This is an excellent video for everyone planning to visit prison.
