[@Dennis19901]

@@damianvandenhaak Don't forget that there's a huge stigma against people who have been in prison, not only in the US It's often very difficult, if not impossible, for them to get an education and/or job. And if you have pretty much no chance on the outside, why would you care about robbing/stealing/dealing drugs etc again. Worst case scenario, you go back in to what you're used to for the past few years.

Hey Larry, greetings from Finland! I'm very fascinated by the prison culture in the States. It's very different here - Finland focuses on rehabilitation. Yes, they take your freedom away from you, but that's the punishment. They don't make your life hell inside. There are lots of programs to help inmates reintegrate to society. That's why we have very low reoffender rates.

[@keithm5378]

Hey Larry! I've been watching your videos a good bit recently and I really, really respect what you do. It takes a strong man to not only learn from his mistakes, but use his mistakes as a teaching tool for others, especially young people who ate at a high risk of ending up in prison. A buddy of mine got out of a max security not too long ago, basically his ex cheated on him with another dude in his own bed,, he got pissed off (rightfully so) and he took back the PlayStation and such that he gave her and she had him charged with grand theft because the value was over $400. He got nine months for that charge, but unfortunately because he was a younger guy who had a bit of a past? He ended up in a maximum security prison, don't know which one, but I know it was here in NC. I can't say I condone his actions, and that he should have been held accountable, but I understand on a human level why he did it, if it were my girlfriend? I'd be pissed off too and probably do something stupid, just maybe not to that degree. But one of the stories he told me was definitely something you'd hear about in a max security. He told me he was sitting in the mess hall having lunch, and this young guy who was cocky and trying to act all tough took someone else's seat...well, the seat he took was that of an older guy in his 50s with multiple life sentences. Guess it wasn't the first time this kid tried to pull this because he clearly had enough of this young punk disrespecting him. He walked up to him while he was in his seat, and suddenly produced a creepy grin on his face. He left the mess hall for a second, came back with a shank made from a glass shard, and within five seconds slit this guy's throat from ear to ear and got the hell out of there. The guards started calling "lockdown, lockdown! Everyone back to your cells now!", beat his ass, and threw him in the hole for three days. At first I'm like "are you serious? That's all they did to him?" but then it hit me. This was an older guy with multiple life sentences who had a reputation of being a convict, but a convict who took no shit from punks like that. What's the worst they could do to him? Give him another life sentence? He's never getting out unless he's in a body bag. Don't screw with lifers because they have nothing to lose when someone disrespects them or pisses them off. Anyways, I'd like to request a specific historical prison event if you think you have the time to cover it, it's one that really really pushed prison reform into the spotlight. The 1980 New Mexico State Penitentiary Riots, I read some of the stories and they're truly horrific and disturbing (like rats/snitches and pedos being slowly tortured and burned alive with acetylene blow torches...), but I would love to hear your thoughts on this event, how it came to be, and what happens when the conditions in prison are so bad they're intolerable and convicts have had enough, and I think 1980 New Mexico shows what can happen and how bad it can get when the system is abusive if not sadistic. I also wanted to ask if you ever met anyone who was there when shit was hitting the fan, or perhaps even involved in those riots. Thank you for all the good work you do! Need to join the action crew one of these days.

Wow, this channel has blown up. Have been watching since 300k subs. Well done Larry, as always.. great stories

[@amirdavies334]

Hey Larry, love your videos from UK. You should check out Louis Theroux: Miami Mega Jail. Really raw and unbiased, and pretty local too.

[@LarryLawtonJewelThief]

Thanks, I will

[@VisibilityFoggy]

I have seen it. It is absolutely amazing. He asks some inmates what would happen if he found himself inside on some minor charge (it's a county jail, but a huge one) and they didn't hold back at all.

[@lazor9539]

Great video Larry! I just finished The Gangster Redemption -book and I have to say that it was quite a thrill altough I had already seen all your videos! Keep on doing good work!

[@bigboybaddy7826]

Recently found your channel Larry and hearing you talking about these horrible things makes me sad for prisoners

[@curranmiddleton723]

Hey Larry, could you make a video about: "everything you need to know before/when purchasing a diamond"?

[@ILikeCallOfDuty123]

I was a max guard at Florida State Prison. The Guards and Administrators were sadistic and totally out of control. The put cameras up and microphones to try to stop the guards from fucking them up. I was respected and got along better with the inmates/convicts than the staff. I worked alone in the end. Didnt really associate with staff. Just went to my post/kitchen for a long time 8 hours then went home. Like your channel. I'm from Long Island, and your 100% accurate on everything.

[@billycunningham6039]

Hey Larry did the guards have big guns or was It just hand guns and keep up the great work =)

[@billycunningham6039]

Or did they have guns

[@LarryLawtonJewelThief]

no guns, only in the towers and they had sniper rifles.

[@billycunningham6039]

Ok thanks

[@wynndoesthings8662]

@@LarryLawtonJewelThief did they have any form of weaponry?

[@chrisash7948]

@@wynndoesthings8662 The answer to your question is no. Most COs receive training during the academy on 12 gauge shotguns and 5.56 AR rifles, but this is in case of special circumstances or posting in a tower, which is very hard to get. Almost universally, COs carry a 4oz can of OC spray, a radio, a pair of handcuffs without a key except for certain officers, latex gloves and a CPR mask. Some will go the extra mile and carry a small flashlight that is required to be under six inches and 1.5 ounces in weight. Depending on the housing unit you work, you might carry extra handcuffs, shackles and a pair of medical shears to cut down bodies. If you are qualified for an outcount, where you are escorting an offender outside of the prison grounds, you are issued a pistol and potentially a shotgun for the duration.

My pops is in prison and I haven’t been able to see him in months due to the virus. You remind me of him though and some of the stories you tell makes me worry about him even more than I already do lol you also give me hope that someday I’ll get to see him again. Much respect and love to you Larry. Stay safe and keep the videos coming! Thank you!
