I have been here for years now living among very scary people,I'm not a perfect person yet,to be spending the next twenty years here for something i did not do is wrong.I was very lucky and made some money gambling,when my neighbors started seeing me buying lots of news things,I guess they got jealous.I was living in a poor area and I guess maybe the things kind of stood out.It was my money,I did not have receipts for it because as I said it was gambling.There was a very big robbery in the area and I got picked to be blamed for it.I had a very lazy lawyer that had a large case load,so my case did not get the attention it deserved,I don't think it did.The police visit at least once a month to discuss the case again and try offering me new deals to tell them where the money is.I have lost my wife because of this and she has sold my house.I did get a few dollars from the sale but that money went to my only child.I have been hoping to find a way to get a new trial or at least a sentence reduction.If I had all this money like they said I do,I could have hired a very good lawyer and been released by now.

I am so sorry to hear what happened to you. Truly, gambling can't do any good to us.. it can improve our living for quite some time but everything will be taken away in an instant. But still what happened you is not your deserving. If you are really not involved in that crime, you should not be there inside. I truly sympathized on you.
All I can say is, in times like this, if all seems dark and hopeless, there is only one who can stand you up in where you are into right now. I am sure justice will be served. Just hold on to God and pray. He will never forsake you.

Dear Lovelyn,I have been praying,and i have been feeling better.I have always believed in God,I know that I should have lived a better life but I dont hate as much as I did when i first got here.I was very angry at everyone at first and it actually gave me headaches.I kind of feel more relaxed now, and i hope that if anything comes from this,I will be a better person when it's all over.

It is good to hear that from you. The more you feel frustrated and the more you hold on to that anger in your heart will only make your situation worst. I am glad that you are taking your situation in a more positive attitude now.
We all learn from our mistakes. I firmly believe that things happen for a reason. We might not understand it for now, but things will fall into places at the right time. God allow things to happen to make us a better person. Let this chapter of your life serves as your inspiration to move on and be a better you.
Take care and God bless.
