This is the ex-meth cook at the Federal Prison in Tucson, Arizona. Many of
you are speculating as to how I gain access to the Net.  No, they don't
allow me to have an Internet account here in prison.  I didn't make a
bundle and bribe the warden, and I'm not full of shit.  What I do is send
my material by mail to a friend in Miami.  She posts it and sends me the
replies, and other peoples' writing, either by mail or phone.  It's
frustrating not being able to answer right away but what can I do??

Some people out there seem to think that the Federal Prison is a
"cake-walk" but it's not "all that".  It is better than most state prisons
I guess.  We don't have a golf course or tennis courts at this particular
"Club-Fed".  We don't live in barred cells.  Imagine your bathroom with a
bunk bed in place of the bathtub, and a desk and two lockers jammed in
there.  That's my room.  I share that with a roommate.  This place is on
14 acres (about 5 city blocks square) out in the middle of the stinking
desert.  There are about 800 inmates here, 67% of which are illegal
aliens, 20% are African-American, 10% white and about 3% Native American.
There are drugs and homemade alcohol (I personally don't fuck around).
The food isn't too bad, and the worst part is no sex, unless you're a
"punk".  That is the prison term for someone who's blowing, fucking or
getting fucked by other men (I don't indulge).  If a guy is young, cute
and weak, there's a good chance that predators will get him and fuck him.
It's all about self-gratification for me; i.e. Hustler and baby oil.
Life here is very monotonous.  Nothing ever changes except the date and
the faces.  Overall I guess we live better that a lot of people on the
streets except there's no pussy.   This sounds like a damn travel
brochure.  Not even.  It sux the big one to lose your freedom.  Someone
tells you when to eat, sleep, stand, work and shit.  If you don't play the
game by their rules, they can make this a very unpleasant experience.
Believe me, none of you want to come here.  It's totally fucked-up.

Are you wondering why I've described my humble abode?  Because it sux and
I want you to know it sux.  I live in a nightmare and been here so long
that I've almost forgotten what physical human contact feels like.  I
don't remember what it's like to get in my car and go to the store.  I've
almost forgotten what pizza and beer taste like.  I've been here since May
12, 1988.  Okay, maybe I did deserve to come here.  I was actually
manufacturing methamphetamine on a large scale for personal greed and
amusement.  I'm not disputing that fact.  What I do find appalling is that
there are a lot of people in here simply for having big mouths and a lack
of common sense.  I estimate that only 25% of the crimes of manufacturing
and conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamines were actually directly
involved in cooking dope.  And, there are literally thousands of us in
here.  The other 75% are fringe tweaker wanna-be's, like a lot of the
idiots I'm seeing online, who were stupid or unlucky enough to get snared
by the DEA.

My last cellmate was serving a 144-month sentence for having a triple neck
boiling flask in his storage unit.  A guy two cells down from me is doing
14 years for telling a friend how to gas his oil over the telephone.
There's yet another guy here who is doing 30 years for opening his stupid
mouth and possessing 1 can of r-11 Freon solvent.  He's about 55 years
old.  He'll die here and he couldn't make a gram of dope if his life
depended on it.  I've heard hundreds of these stories since I've been
down.

My AOL friend in Miami sends me meth-related posts from the alt.drug and
rec.drug groups.  Some of the shit I'm seeing is unbelievable.  There are
a lot of idiots out there saying that they want to make speed and for
people to E-mail them formulas.  There are also a few out there who have
some chemical knowledge.  They are posting formulas (most of which, by the
way, are either bogus or totally impractical) and flexing their little
wanna-be outlaw egos.  Some of these people are intelligent but obviously
ignorant of how Big Brother operates.  They may think they can hide behind
the First Amendment and say whatever they please because, after all, it's
just information, right?  Wrong.  Our government has conveniently enacted
rules and laws that enable them to circumvent the constitution.  Their
nearly unbeatable and favorite weapon is the federal conspiracy law.
Under this law, a person doesn't even have to actually touch chemicals or
drugs to be convicted.  All he has to do is talk about it or commit an
"act of furtherance".  If a person comes online, says he wants to produce
meth and also asks for a formula and you give it to him; that is an "act
of furtherance".  You have just directly enabled that person to commit a
very serious felony that he would have been incapable of without your
assistance.  Therefore, in the eyes of the law, you are just as guilty as
the actual perpetrator.

Think of this: Timothy McVeigh comes online a few months back and says,
"Fuck the Feds.  They burned up those kids in Waco now I want to blow up a
federal building.  Please E-mail me the formula for a 5,000lb fertilizer
bomb".  If you sent him the formula, you would now be his cellmate in El
Reno, Oklahoma facing the death penalty for conspiracy to commit murder.

I'm sure you're all familiar with the two-year federal investigation of
the kiddy-porn assholes.  Yeah those people are sick fucks but that's not
the point.  The point is, the feds are online too.  To the federal
government, kiddy-porn is a relatively petty crime in comparison to
manufacturing methamphetamines.

I'm not writing this to get down on anybody.  I'm just writing in hopes
that my post will open the eyes of some of you out there who are treading
on dangerous ground.  You may think I'm paranoid, but that's not the case.
 You see, I don't give a fuck.  I have nothing to lose, they've already
went up in me and taken everything that mattered including my youth.
There is an important lesson I have learned from all this and that is, how
our federal government operates.  They are sneaky, ruthless and
underhanded.  They don't play fair so don't expect them to.  They don't
care if you're innocent or guilty.  All they care about are convictions.

These newsgroups are cool.  Go ahead and share experiences, ideas and
opinions but I suggest keeping the technical stuff to minimum.  The next
person asking for a tip on manufacturing could very well be a DEA agent.
Besides putting your own personal freedom in jeopardy, you could fuck up a
good thing.  The feds are looking for ways and reasons to censor the Net.
Don't give them another.  Be safe and be smart.
