I have a sonโ€”heโ€™s 16 now. Heโ€™s the main reason I stay out of trouble.

Since Iโ€™ve been here, I just want to do everything right so I can be back out soon. Iโ€™ve learned that I need to be humble and kind to others. I have a sonโ€”heโ€™s 16 now. Heโ€™s the main reason I stay out of trouble, and besides, Iโ€™m getting too old for that.

Hereโ€™s a picture of me. My name is Benjamin and Iโ€™m a twin. My brother Natividad is also incarcerated in California and was featured on your site on February 1st. We were born in L.A. in 1971. In my free time, I enjoy talking on the phone and texting. I also like to drawโ€”hereโ€™s something I made for a friend. My earliest release date is 2037, but as time goes on, that may get shorter. Iโ€™m single and doing my time alone. It would be nice to hear from someone. Hope you enjoyed my short letter and picture. Take care, and God bless.
