Society bestowed upon the police, the job of enforcing our nation's rights against wrongs.

À propos de l?auteur

Out of 36 years I've been on this earth, 22 of those years have been spent experiencing the highs and lows of the street life. Born and raised in Flint Michigan, I quickly adapted to the life of a drug dealer. I traveled to different states in-pursuit of lower drugs prices and more clientele. In Saint Louis Missouri, I was arrested for 'trafficking and distribution' of a large amount of marijuana. While serving my time in the Missouri Department of Corrections, I did a lot of self-improving. In that self-improving process, after spending almost a decade in prison... I realized hustling in the streets was not worth spending anymore of my precious time in prison.. I came to the understanding that I had to do something different when I returned to the free world. While in prison, I wrote music and poetry the entire time, though during the last 8 months of my sentence... I began writing my first book "By The Gun" based on a true story. I was released from the Missouri Department of Corrections on April 12th, 2012 and I paroled to Oakland California, with my Mom who has been a huge support in my new found interest in book and movie-script writing. I am currently living in Oakland and working on turning my book "By The Gun" into a movie-script and my second novel "Black & Blue Bay".
