2026-02-2307 minPravityVisitation at Parish PrisonSeason 2, Episode 4 — VisitationWhile I was housed on L2 at East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, I was close enough to home that friends and family could visit regularly.In this episode, I break down what visitation actually looked like: the locked metal booths, the old handset phones, the tiny diamond-shaped window of plate glass, and the fifteen-minute limits. Protective custody inmates weren’t supposed to be placed in that environment — but lazy policies and lazy guards meant we often were, locked in with men from other units where violence and sexual politics could erupt at any mo...
2026-02-1906 minPravityThree FightsI got into three fights in parish prison.I won two. I lost one.This episode is about scarcity, ego, sex, humiliation, and what happens when pride collides with insecurity inside a locked unit. From commissary theft to prison sexual politics to a fight I absolutely should have won — and didn’t — this is the anatomy of violence on a protected custody line.Prison doesn’t make you strong. It makes you reactive. Sometimes you survive. Sometimes you get humbled.And sometimes the person who beats you is the one who liked yo...
2026-02-1412 minPravityLockdown!The worst four days I ever spent in East Baton Rouge Parish Prison were on lockdown.In this episode, I explain what “lockdown” actually means inside a parish prison — the layout, the cells, the hallway they call yard time, and the three kinds of people who end up there: classification cases, disciplinary cases, and the mentally ill.You’ll hear about Delaysia, a trans woman who did me a real favor, and why cutting open a prison mattress could mean the difference between dignity and humiliation. Scarcity changes people. Confinement sharpens it.This isn’t te...
2026-02-1406 minPravityReturn to L2!Welcome back!Two weeks ago, a drunk driver ran a red light and nearly killed my son and me. My son is still in the hospital. My car is gone. Louisiana’s gutted tort law means there is no system waiting to catch you when you fall.And then we go back to prison.After being sexually assaulted in Tangipahoa Parish Jail, I requested a transfer back to East Baton Rouge Parish Prison — back to L2, the self-proclaimed “homosexual line,” the only place that ever felt remotely safe.

2026-02-1415 minPravityTheRapist (Part 2)The end of Season 1.This is what survival sounds like when there’s no hero music and no fade-out — only breath, truth, and the sound of someone still here.It’s the aftermath, the silence, the bureaucracy, the fight to stay human when the system says you don’t matter.It’s what comes after no one listens, and what happens when you finally do.This is closure, not comfort.The story doesn’t end here — but the telling does.🎙 Pravity Season 1 Finale — TheRapist (Pt. 2).Thank you for staying.Season 2 begin...
2025-11-1919 minPravityTheRapist (Part 1)The story turns.Back to Tangipahoa. Back to the cell. Back to the moment that changes everything.This isn’t fiction. This is testimony — the truth behind the jokes, behind the calm, behind the myth of punishment.There’s no filter, no fade-out. Only a man, a bunk, a system that didn’t care, and a country that let it happen in its name.If you’ve made it this far, you already know what courage sounds like.If you haven’t — listen anyway.🎙 Pravity Season 1 Finale Pt 1 — “TheRapist.”
2025-11-1813 minPravityJackpotWhen a new cellmate moves in, Frank meets Tyree Hammond — a man whose presence shifts the energy of the entire unit. What starts with small gifts, kindness, and attention begins to morph into something more dangerous. Through a haze of roaches, radios, and card games, prison politics twist into survival tactics, and survival itself becomes a kind of surrender.This is the story of how power hides in plain sight, how “protection” turns into possession, and how even the smallest kindness can start to feel like a trap.
2025-11-1712 minPravityThe Law Is Not ImpartialEpisode 12 · The Law Is Not ImpartialRoaches on the walls. Paperwork on the floor. A Brady violation that should have set me free — and didn’t. Somewhere between the guard shack and the courthouse, I finally learned what justice actually is: a story told by people who think they’re not part of it.This isn’t about violence. It’s about the slow violence of paperwork, power, and people pretending not to see.🎙 PRAVITY · Season 1 ✨ franklet.com / it's still good to want things ✨
