Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I pray that you have a blessed day :) With loyalty, love and respects! ~Sincerely, "RAKHUM" |
G Crossroads CC, Missouri Hello to my future queen, I can't wait until the day that I can make you mine. My best qualities are my love makin', my loyalty, protective, a real gentleman.

Nevertheless, I'm over 40 and under 50! I feel and look 35! With a heart of gold, I guarantee to make you smile and laugh like you never have before. Color (as in race) is not an issue at all...if you can have my back under these conditions, I will give you your heart's desires, now and up until the day I die. Let's show this world about an unconditional love looks and feels like. I don't want to spend another second without you. 6ft tall, 220 pounds of the best chocolate.

Chad Swartwood FCI Danbury, Connecticut My name is Chad and I'm a gay 44 yr. old white male. I've been told I look like I'm about 36ish. The photo is of me from a few yrs. ago but I haven't changed. I'm 5'6" and weigh about 150 lbs. I've got short brown hair and hazel eyes. Since I was young I've been told I look like Neil Patrick Harris. I love people and making new friends.

On the outside, I worked at a sawmill and was a volunteer on the fire dept. and emergency squad. I love ice hockey and my favorite team is the Ottawa Senators. I've got a great personality and love to have good clean fun. I've known all my life I was gay but just "came out" in 2019. I like twinks which is my preferred choice sexually. I've got absolutely no letters coming in and would love to get a few pen pals as it gets kinda lonely, and would be great to get some letters coming in. I don't really have any support out there. I'm in need of some new friends. If I've got stamps, I will write you back. To get to know me better, please write. I'd love it. Have a good day. Thank you family and love you all! |
Lawrence W. SCI Benner Township, Florida Dear Beautiful Sisters of our lovely community, my name is Lawrence. I am 36 years old. I am from Philadelphia, PA. I am into music. I am a DJ. I produce and make beats, it's my life and passion and profession. The only thing I am missing that's been hard to have is LOVE. I am attracted to trans women and feminine queens, but more so trans women. I tried to find LOVE in jail and that just has not worked out at all and been all bad. Every relationship just been an episode of prison love so hip-hop, lol. I know myself to be a true KING on my very own chess board, but now I need a true QUEEN on my chess board with me to rule with me. My heart is open, I am funny and can be goofy at times. I am open minded, business minded, and like to learn new things. I have been incarcerated since I was 17, so I've been locked up for 19 years, and I go see parole again in April and pray for my release. Right now I am in the pursuit of happiness. I have my music in my life when I come home, but I also want to come home to a new best friend and leave my past behind me and move on to my next chapter in my life with new real friends and love and the love of music. I am also heavy on family. It was a secret about my life style when I was home being 15-17, and fully come out in jail to my family, so it was all support, well it was more easy for my mom, she part of our community, go mom right :) But sending love to my beautiful sisters and hope to hear from y'all soon. Signed with love, Lawrence |
Frank Williams Graham CC, Illinois My name is Frank Williams. I am a 47 yr. old Black male. I'm 5'9", 200 p. (majority muscle), brown skin, wavy hair, brown eyes. I've been incarcerated since 2004, my release date is Dec. 07 2025. I'm still in the process of appeal of my conviction. I enjoy reading, playing chess, cards, dominoes, exercising, music, sports and movies. I'm a humble, fun, loving, positive person; I can be serious when needed. Individuals tell me that I have a good heart & character; I'm intellectual, I make them smile, I listen to them & give whatever advice needed & that I am a handsome man. I'm the same person everyday, no matter what. I'm upfront, committed to everything I do, I'm a man of my word. I love seeing others smile, it takes too much energy to be negative. I enjoy learning new things, meeting new people, I'm an open minded person. I'm the same way on the street. A person can change their personality, they can't change their character! Since being here, I have matured as a man, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. I've received five educational certificates, and trying for more. I'm a metrosexual, I've always been attracted to transgenders and women, I was afraid to admit my preference of transgenders, being here I've learned that it doesn't matter about the gender, what others think, or say, what matters is my heart, mind & soul, as well as the individual whom I'm with. My future aspectations [sic] outside of these walls is to live a happy, fun, positive, productive life, to build a better life. To whomever is reading this, what are your aspects in life? What are the things you want to establish in life? I would like to hear from whomever reads this. You can text me through GTL Connect Network: www.connectnetwork.com.

I'm looking 4 some1 or preferably a team of people to start a website 4 me & a monthly newsletter to help me expose the widespread corruption in the courts & LA Sheriff's Dep't that causes many innocent people 2 B wrongly convicted like me &/or selectively prosecuted or over-sentenced! I've been all 3 of those & I can easily prove hundreds of cops, judges, & lawyers have committed serious felonies & so far got no consequences. Meanwhile many life prisoners across the US have been wrongly convicted like me! Our system is not just- the people running it are the ones who actually deserve prison!

Don't be biased - look @ the evidence I have B4 you pass judgment on me! Due 2 the widespread corruption in the Public Defender's Office, I tried 2 represent myself early in my main case but the judge & DA both were violating my rights & withholding exculpatory evidence from me so I cited laws the judge & DA were breaking & instead of complying with the laws I cited & turning over the exculpatory evidence, the judge made up a bunch of excuses to revoke my right to represent myself & forced a puppet lawyer on me 2 silence me so I can't speak out about the judge, DA & sheriff's corruption... |
Christian Love TAYLOR CI, Florida My name is Christian Love, I'm 39, born in July, which makes me a Cancer. Someone once told me that what makes me stand out from the crowd is my personality. I have the ability to make people smile and laugh regardless of the situation. I like to be outgoing and don't mind "stepping out there" and taking a chance on accomplishing what's important to me. I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania. I obtained a GED due to having to move out on my own during my senior year in high school. At heart, I'm a video game nerd who likes to play action and turn based RPG's. I also enjoy Dungeon Mastering and playing "Dungeons & Dragons" and/or "Path Finder," which gives me a great imagination, which leads me into...Some day I would like to be a video game designer or at the very least be a part of making video games. In terms of D&D, if you like to "roll the dice," write to me. Sincerely, Christian Love |
Uriah SCI Mahanoy, pennsylvania We all have a story to tell. I'm more of a listener. Caring is a bi-product of being denied a voice. I "love" in abundance. I fall "in" love quite easily. So I get hurt a lot. But I refuse to not love in one way or another. I've recently had to deal with my being superficial. I've overcome. I like to keep my reasons open. As to allow for others curiosity to be their drive in wanting to know more about me. I'm not complicated, nor do I have an ounce of hate. I'm 60 years old, as of this December 19th. I love being real, and not normal. I can never seem to follow "their" rules. I am me. And man do I like me. I'm humorous, I love hearing others laughter. And laugh as often as I can. Sometimes inappropriately. But without malice. I will not answer any question rather than lie. I have nothing to hide. But I'm so not into hurting other people. I am trans female by choice. And love being who I am. I am a large, long haired woman. I'm not looking for another's money, or need legal help. I do enjoy pictures and I draw obscure. Very obscure. I don't have limits to anything I can draw. I don't believe for a moment I am owed. I give out of caring. And with no strings attached. Entitlement is ugly to me. I am my fellow/sister's keeper. I can be a horn dog. But I try to be non-sluttish. (Try) I'm into the warmth of another. How someone looks is not what I go after. The person is what I desire. The heart. I'm not looking for a mate. But I'm not closed off to the idea. I have book ideas. Both fiction and nonfiction. My mind is an amazing place. I have an imagination that never rests. Call me Uriah, Sage was my past life. I've changed so much the past 9 months. I will answer any who wish to correspond with me. Remember I'm going to be 100% honest. "Love from inside" Uriah |
Tony Gentry Centralia CC, Illinois Greetings My Friends. I'm wishing each and every one of you abundance of love, peace, & kindness...and you deserve true happiness...Well here is a little about myself: I'm a Libra and I'm very open minded and creative with artwork and I love to play chess and I'm a true giver at heart. I'm a very spiritual person but I don't judge anybody so please don't judge me! I love watching movies and reading Sigmund Freud books! I believe in sowing seeds of love. I speak things into my life that's good and now I'm thankful to have you as my new penpal. I also study yoga meditation about the true self. LGBTQ love, Tony Gentry |
Bobby Brown mcconnell Unit, Texas My name is Bobby Brown, (so my name is known worldwide). :)I'm a gay white man, a few tattoos. I am 6'1 inch tall, brown hair, blue eyes and about 182 pounds. I stay in good shape & health, and told I look about 35 years old (I'm actually 52). I like all kinds of music, but my best is classic rock or classic country, (there's a lot of feelings in those songs). I love to dance to them. I'm a cert. welder & cert. elect. but my thing is drawing. I don't drink or do drugs, but everyone around me always has a good time because I keep them laughing, this brings me to another hobby of mine, changing someone's mood by getting them to laugh. If your day starts out bad, I can always turn it around. I've been locked up a long time, but through this time I got cert. for two trades (above) and received my G.E.D. I can come up for parole on Jan. 1st, 2026. My hopes are to get out, get a job welding, and part time job drawing, and have 1970 Chevelle (painted purple). Last of all, before I die, I want to ride an Ostrich. :) Smile, Bobby |
Chris P. Allred Unit, Texas Wow...okay. So I'll introduce myself by telling you specific words others have called me, and ones I claim for myself - give myself credit for through crazy-work that's brought me to who I am today: Guru, Teacher, Monk, Fighter, Superman, Realest Dude I Know, Lover, Humble/Honest, Scientist, Philanthropist, Shaman/Healer, Writer, Valedictorian of my GED add. I am at a place in life where I've become astonishingly-solid in my comfort with myself, and awareness of what I am able to do in this season in life. I want to see what I may share with others, and wish to meet people of different-cast than what's generally here around me...long story there, but I want to be brief. I'm open to speak to anyone lead to this place who wishes to write, as you wouldn't be reading this if Destiny had not lead you here; I hope you make it here, and overcome the things that attempt to stop you from gaining what I may be able to bring into your life...I invite you to attempt to put honest, blunt words down that you feel could truly apply to you. Ones others have told you, and ones you claim on your own. I feel it may be a way to see a lot of each other fast, for a first interaction, then we'll talk more after our first contact. I'm ready to answer any questions, and honestly try to give some healthy life substance to you, or whatever comes. I'm an incredibly open-minded person, with an unbelievable range of life-experience...ready to do something new! May you get something from this note, as I have making it. Sincerely, Chris |

Detroit Allred unit, Texas My name is Justin, and I am wondering if you could help me out with a little difficulty? I'm in search of a penpal who would not mind writing and developing a friendship. Someone once said "A stranger is just a friend you have not met." I believe that's true, do you? I love to write letters and meet new people, and I really hope we can connect and become great friends. I don't think we can have too many of those, do you? I believe in honesty upfront, feel free to ask any questions you have, okay? No topic is taboo! :) Don't hesitate to write. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Your new friend, Justin "Detroit" Szalla |
Spider WAshington SP, Washington Allow me to introduce myself: my friends call me Spider. I spent my formative years in Brownsville, Texas and the rest of my time in Moses Lake, Washington. My heritage is Huastec, and I'm proud of it. I love my culture and celebrate it any way possible. I am an artist and I want to open my own tattoo shop upon my release as it is a great passion of mine. I also have an affinity for airbrushing. I seek to better myself while in prison and my first big step towards that is getting my G.E.D. which I am currently working on. I have a soft spot for all walks of life, and most of my friends are transgender. So please feel comfortable writing me if that is your walk of life. I am a reformed man now and my previous life is no longer a part of who I am, so try me and see. :) P.S. Institutional email: JPay |
Mateo Casaus Stiles Unit, Texas DEAR READER: I will like to ask you some questions. Will you like to have a friend who doesn't lie or pretend to be someone else? A friend who is fully capable of being himself all the time? Whose outlook on life is thru a positive point of view in improving self that has its effects on others daily lives as a whole? I mediate [sic]. I exercise because it releases endorphins in my brain that's helpful. I don't drink or do drugs, "by choice." I have learned to observe & not respond to the hostility within prison. I don't need a costume. I'm a good person now. I will not make you feel unwanted or judge you in any way because we humans have 34000 emotions. This world is already filled with negative thoughts & actions. I will like to change that one person at a time. :) What makes me unique from other prisoners: I focus on learning people, business, stocks & bonds, capital structure. I keep my mind on something positive even when helping someone else. Thank you for reading my bio. I look forward to hearing from you! |
Nyx Wallace Unit, Texas "I'm not strange, weird, off, nor crazy, my reality is just different from yours." -Cheshire Cat Professional geek, budding artist, and young at heart.

Looking to communicate with someone who shares my interests, understands the challenges ahead, and isn't too far in The 'Blue' (remember just because the right is wrong doesn't meant the left is right...) Interests & hobbies: Anime/manga <a rare treat in prison>, fantasy/scifi, western comics, tabletop RPGs, Japanese culture and language, science <astronomy, zoology, physics mostly>, history, folklore/myth, and though it's been a while, videogaming.

Ryan C. East Moline CC, Illinois Hello. My name is Ryan, nicknamed Ryno at a young age. I'm in search of a penpal who would not mind writing and developing a friendship. "Someone once said that a stranger is just a friend you have not met yet." Because I believe in trust, respect and honesty, feel free to ask any questions. I'm very open. I have placed a photo with this ad, so you can see the face behind my words. I really hope to connect and become great friends. "I don't think you can have too many friends." "Do you?" And right now I have none, which is mostly my fault for being incarcerated. Nothing in life is guaranteed, but should you consider becoming my friend, here's what I can offer you: someone you can come to for comfort, a heart that understands, and does not judge. A door that is always open and time devoted to you. Since my incarceration, I've used every moment to better myself. I've taken college courses, over 70 college credit[s]. I've completed a few other courses having to do with contracting as well as over 14 courses in Paralegal Studies, where I enjoy helping others with needed legal issues. If this sounds like something you would be interested in, then please don't hesitate to write. No matter what you chose, I hope that you are blessed this new year... |
Zhoka Allred Unit, Texas Well hello, my birth name is Eric Perez and I'm 33 going on 34 in Feb. the 8th to be exact. But you can call me Zhoka or Zephora depending on what I wake up as. But most of the time I'm Zhoka. Some may know me by Eeyore or even Eracus. Yet as a new year and an me finally accepting being "gender fluid" or pangender. Or as my ancestors once called it, "two spirited." I'm a mixed Hispanic with German Apache, Scandinavian, Mexican...well that's what I know of so far. Well to tell you more about myself, I'm a gothic, sk8er, emo, Juggalo nerd/geek. I like to read and draw. I've played LARP called Amtgard and got into D&D and Pathfinder in prison.

Until pen and paper cross again. -Zhoka "Eeyore" Eric Perez |
Gary F. MacDougall CI, south carolina I'm 63 but with the energy of a 23 year old! Author and artist with books on Amazon and art on display at Cornell University and online with the Justice Arts Coalition. Penpals with staying power are difficult to find as life has a habit of getting in the way. I'm a hopeless romantic with a desire to lavish a special someone with picnics for two, candlelight meals and I never forget birthdays. A native Tarheel, I enjoy cooking, PBS, and reading. Prior to my incarceration, I was a world traveler and have lived in South Africa. I'm not into games and I'm not seeking lewd letters nor someone to send me money. My family takes care of me. If you're not into playing with people's emotions and you are seeking a little intelligent conversation and a friend with the possibility of more, then take a chance on someone who has had a broken heart but still believes in love.

John C. Robertson Unit, Texas Hello. My name is John, I am a 49 y/o Pansexual man, who is married to Krysta (of ABO Comix fame) who is a TransFemale (AMAB). We are Pagan in faith, and are both deep into Goth, Emo, BDSM and all that goes with it. I am writing a Book on Witchcraft, hopefully to be put into print this year...We (my wife and I) are both being held hostage by the State of Texas, and are in deep need of mail to help ease the pain of this place, our mail is all we have at this time. We both are steadfast advocates for the LGBTQI community, as my wife's artwork will show. We both fly our rainbow flag with PRIDE! In the mist of incarceration, this is the hardest place for people like us, but yet we are still here, our voice will be heard by many, we will leave our mark on this earth. Please feel free to write one or both of us, it's like a package deal, we are true soul mates who share this life no matter what, at this time we are sharing the pain of separation, and yes we still have each other, if we have nothing else, we will always have each other. But we are seeking new friends, who really want to enjoy the life of a married couple who just wants to really enjoy life, and seek life long friends, who like to write or more. We are honest to a fault, and are very open as life is just too short for games. But if you want a one of a kind relationship with some new people, please seek us out, and I promise you that you will not regret it. We will change your life...If you are up to the challenge then the time to write us is now...May The Dark Goddess bless all who reads this, and help guide your hearts to help those who need it...I sign off with love and respect...Blessed be, John & Krysta |
John H. Minnesota CF, Minnesota Hello to my new friends. Anyone looking for a good friend, I'm here. I'm caring, honest, loyal, open minded, nonjudgmental, and Wiccan. I enjoy painting, music, some sports, cars and writing. I make the most of my time, and refuse to let this place drag me down! Keeping a positive outlook on things despite all the negativity around me. Since coming here in 2005, I've learned myself how to paint and play some guitar. Having you in my life would mean a lot since family and friends have distanced themselves from me, especially after coming out as gay in 2015. So nothing would fill the void like getting letters and emails via Jpay from you. I would like to hear about you and the things you enjoy, that is whatever you're comfortable sharing with me. Much love & solidarity. |
Charles Banks Western Missouri CC, Missouri My name is Charles Banks, a 43 yr old black man, born 9-9-79 in Kansas City, Missouri. I'm a bisexual man seeking other bisexual or gay men to talk to. I prefer white men only between the age of 25-50 yrs old. I'm seeking someone who isn't afraid to meet and get to know a stranger. I want a friendship with hopes of a relationship. I don't believe in lying, games or hurting people. I'm in prison for robbery 1st degree. I was given 18 yrs at 85%. My earliest release date is 6/29/32. I love to write, listen to music, sports, reading, and just relaxing. I'm a thrill seeker and love to [do] fun things. I never been fishing or hunting, 2 of the things I want to do once I'm released. I never been married nor do I have kids. I have over 26 siblings. Yeah, it's not a typo. What makes me a very good penpal? My ability to show love, care, and not judge anyone. I have nothing to hide and a willingness to try new things, to take chances with love and meeting new people. So if you're looking for someone who is genuine, I'm your guy. |

I'm a very intellectual person who's searching friendship. I love to smile and my conversation can be unique. I've come to a point in my life where I just want change. I sure could have someone new and exciting to storm into my world and chase away my rainy days. I've been confined to segregation over 26 years now. My hobbies: like to read, like all music, and to educate myself in civil rights movement, like to communicate with all people. Because we are all humans no matter whats the color of our skin is. My B-day is 10/30/74. I'm a down to earth person whose life is an open book that don't mind sharing it with a friend. My main accomplishment was to make a change of the corrupted lifestyle I've lived. And what makes me unique is I refuse to let people bring me down and to keep on giving out positive energy. Well I'm going to end this and hope someone out there will give me a chance to be their friend. :) Race and gender is not an issue. If you write me a Jpay, please enclose your address. In solidarity, Joshua Burkett |
