Who knows. If he writes and says he didn't get them, then I guess not. I don't think they would really care about reading material. I know other places don't.

Also rehab is probably a different case than jail...I think as long as the book you were receiving in jail didn't have info about making weapons/escaping then you'd be ok. No one in jail will have all the stuff to make anything in TiHKAL or PiHKAL anyway.

AA and NA while in jail is a joke. They don't care as much as they'd like the public to think. I don't think he'll have any problems what so ever getting the books.

I think I'm going to write him as well. Each time I think back to what happened I get riled up because it's such bullshit. And to hear what that girls parents say... they're so f***ing stubborn.
He does seem very optimistic. It's really evident and I guess obvious that he's been doing a lot of thinking. But again, good that he seems to be optimistic. Fortunately the kid has it in him to stay strong and he's not having a hard time... he must sure miss the outside world though, and his home. Poor guy..

He's doing really well for himself. He's taking some courses and doing productive things to make his time easier. We write each other very often. If I get the chance to be down that way, I'm definitely visiting him.

I'm not sure. I'll ask in my next letter. I would assume that cash has to be deposited but I'll ask to be sure.

This is ridiculous. Drug use has such ridiculous stigma. It reminds me of justifing racism 'because minorities are bad', without any true insight into what is going on at all. I am definitely going to write him a letter this week. Possibly many. Just.. fucked up. I'd like to learn more about the situation, I feel bad for the death, and for the sham that is drug law & punishment. To be perfectly honest, regardless of his actual degree of involvement with her death, prison is not the way to solve a drug problem like that. Be it simply use, or dealing. He deserves respect. Punishment is such a tragic way to solve a problem, beyond hope or reason, the last resort of a confused society. This applies to even more than simply drug crime, but that is certainly not a realm that I am familiar enough to really comment on.
I'd like to find out about his situation from him, and, well, try to help. Sending books does seem like a good idea. Would something like a cd of music be able to get through? I guess I should really ask this kind of thing in a letter eh? heh.

so why was he selling prescription drugs? that seems silly to me to start with. Worth asking about. Too late now, but it does seem odd.

I don't think he would be able to get any use out of a cd since he has no means of playing it. If you want to send him books though, this is the list he gave me that he was interested in reading:
Confessions of a Dope Dealer Electric Kool Aid Acid Test TiHKAL (any other good psychedelic / drug books)
Books have to be sent to:
Derek Hansen 474107 RYOCF 1414 Albert St. Racine, WI 53404
They MUST have the receipt included and they have to be sent by either the store they are purchased from, or you can have them shipped to him via an online book store. They can't be sent directly from an individual.
I know he'll be very happy to hear from everyone. It gives him something to do, and takes his mind off where he's at.

Because some prescription drugs have enormous recreational value. Oxycontin, Xanax, Percocets, etc., and someone has to sell them.
You don't hear of this in your area? Prescription drugs are huge around here.

What a shitty situation. I can't find his username one here. Did he have all his posts deleted? The nickname sounds familiar though.

I don't know why you all are sending him ton's of books but haven't even thought about canteen yet. That's why I asked earlier in the thread. When I was in jail books were nice but canteen or commissary some people call it was the bread and butter of the jail house experience. I am assuming the procedure is to send it to the same addy you gave earlier but a money order and he must have an inmate number or something. If you can give me details I am down for a $30 bomb.
