I pulled up to Del Taco today and I saw 2 Guys in Prison blues standing out front. Looking closer, I realized one of them was my old workout partner. I knew he was getting out soon, but what are the odds that I would run into him in the middle of the city on the day he was released? Recently my life has been one serendipitous moment after another. My old workout partner still had that feral, just-out-of-the-cage look in his eyes. It tripped me out because I remember how it felt that first day, how intense everything was, and even though it has only been a month, it feels like a lifetime ago. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have family out here and he has to stay at a halfway house. He knows about the documentary and I told him that I'd like to interview him about what he's experiencing. Now that things have settled down a little bit I'm going to begin filming later this month. A friend was generous enough to donate lighting equipment for interviews, and now with the camera purchased from your Go-fund-me donations, and the tripod that Juliana Piccillo has been kind enough to let me borrow, I’m ready to roll. I've been so fortunate to have so much support from so many people. Thank you all. The ultimate goal of this project is to give everyone getting out of prison the same opportunities that I have been blessed with.
