I've never been to prison
Try to keep it that way. A Michigan prison is no place for a 20 year old White guy. Just stating a fact
.
I have to believe prison is stressful and really takes a toll on an old guy's health
The medical attention you get in prison sucks. And when you're on the Government's shit list, it's often deliberate. Look at John Gotti. What started as a treatable oral cancer, ended up a long, agonizing death march.
I'm not a Gotti "fan," and quite frankly he deserved to be in prison, in spite of the fact that it was a lowlife rat who put him there. But what's right is right. The Government let that guy suffer like he was Osama bin Laden.
