My world changed for the worse in a matter of 30 minutes.
I’m doing a 22.5 to 50-year sentence in New Hampshire. I flew in with my son from Houston, Texas on May 6, 2020 and was arrested on August 27, 2022. I’m charged with attempted murder, and the media coverage of my case is misconstrued so badly. I’m not much of a writer. As you can see, my mind has not been stimulated to do so for the past four years; everything I love has been taken, and all I know is lost.
Every month, a physical envelope arrives at your door, postmarked from San Quentin Village, California. Inside, you will find original artwork, writing, and recipes from real contributors, along with a personal letter from me, Diane Kahn, founder of Humans of San Quentin, about the people who made them. You read it. You keep it.
Every piece comes from someone serving a sentence. Every piece reminds you they are so much more than that.
