In Solitary Confinement: How A Former Policeman Stop Drowning Himself In Loneliness

The author not only served his country in the United States Army for 10 years but he also served the communities in which he lived as a firefighter and police officer for over 20 years. In 2015 after being in debt for years he stole from the police evidence room. You can call it a midlife crisis or just plain desperation but he made a poor decision. Some men commit crimes and other wall street types jump from windows but he stole. He was subsequently arrested in January 2016 and sentenced to 12 years in prison even though he never had been in trouble a day in his life. While in prison he spent over 10 months in solitary confinement where he lost not only his health but his sanity as well. You will be with him as he chronicles his time in solitary. This book is not a recollection of his time or his time in solitary but was actually written during the time he was isolated from all human contact. There were no windows to look out, no bars to see through, but instead, a solid metal door with a flap only opened to give him food. A fluorescent light glared in his eyes 24/7 causing such agony it can only be described by him in this book. The author is not looking for fame or fortune. He doesn't want your sympathy. He simply wants to share his writings to put a spotlight on the inhumanity of the justice system.
