However, I would rather be remembered as Michael. Though I am now a felon, it wasn’t how my life began. I was the third of eight children...

"A White Liberal Male Federal Called Me (Fitch) A Racist" I arrived from a kangaroo court to an awaiting trap here in the federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) over 21 years ago. The thing is for my jailers to pit their inmates against me, as well as their colleagues, and then prosecute me, or attempt to, after I defend myself. This has been the unrelenting hate that has followed me from jail to jail, non-stop. I documented the trap that awaited me at USP Leavenworth in 1999. My so-calle...

Because I was so young I held a lot of misconceptions about what prison was actually for. I thought and and was lead to believe by my judge, lawyer and family, that I would come to prison and be given the opportunity and chance to...
