Synopsis

When developing and publishing and republishing Dwight Edgar Abbott's Prison written books: "I Cried, You Didn't Listen" & "CONSEQUENCE" The Aftermath; along with individual paintings and drawings; I became acutely aware of the single common ground that remains between societies most hardened criminals and the rest of humanity. I believe that it is this 'common ground' that can provide an opportunity for redemption, forgiveness, acceptance and understanding on both sides of even, "Level Four" Prison Walls. It is through all men and women's innate Love of creation's great and small, that healing for all who have wronged or have been wronged can, not only begin, but end in emotional, and possibly physical, Freedom. All Creation brings us together and Testifies of His Love. None stand so tall, as when they stoop to touch a living creation of God. Dwight Edgar Abbott; A.K.A. "Sonny" died in Prison on August 8, 2020. R.I.P. my Brother!

À propos de l'auteur

A word about our three Authors: At the age of nine, Dwight Abbott's carefree life ended dramatically, his childhood thrown into chaos when his parents were nearly killed in a car accident late one night in the hills above Pomona, California. Dwight was taken to Los Angeles Central Juvenile Hall, where he was soon after beaten by his peers, and raped by the counselors his care was entrusted to. It wasn't long before he understood he had to decide if he'd remain prey or become the predator. He shares his childhood with us in his book, I Cried, You Didn't Listen, written upon toilet paper while in Solitary Confinement for five years at the Oregon State Penitentiary. And now, with CONSEQUENCE, for the first time, he shares what he and the children growing up with him went on to experience. The scary part is the nightmare he writes of is the fate of boys and girls today being raised inside California's juvenile penal system. Today, in place of knives and zip guns, Dwight battles with pen and paper, choosing to believe, as he did in the beginning, 20 years ago, that readers learning of the consequences of unchecked authority inside juvenile institutions will rise up and demand reform. Dwight has spent most of his 69 years behind one set of bars or another, and is presently serving four 25 year to life; consecutive sentences at The California Health Care Facility in Stockton. “THIS,” he shares, “is in large part the consequence of, to name a few, Nelles, Paso Robles and Preston; spawn of California's Youth Authority." Danny Abbott is Dwights brother; a retired science teacher, living in Redding Caifornia. Zane Jacobs is the Family Historian on the Ballard side of the family through Danny's wife; Terry (Ballard) Abbott.
