Dear Alex,

I know about Lee Ann’s addiction because I’ve met a few heroin addicts and the need never ceases until they go to prison so the money must be gotten to feed it. She goes on to tell him that he’s sweet and good hearted and to look for someone else. She goes on to talk about prison life and how the “rooms are assigned to us and takes a while to fix the room up and clean it and make it the way you like it.” In the last paragraph she talks about my “case I did have a gun a 45, there were four bullets in the magazine. One was in the chamber but I ejected it before I went to the park. I did know how to load it and fire it. I didn’t put a bullet in one chamber. It wasn’t necessary. I didn’t pull the trigger. Certainly, that wasn’t necessary without a bulett :-). But I did come close to the president and pointed at him I said I was making a point. “

She then goes on to ask more questions. Do use a computer do you talk to people online?” “Be sure that the women are not under age and that they are not men some men posing as women, it’s kind of a dangerous world.” Do you like danger? Question do you like roller coasters and speedy cars question you don’t seem like the type.  Do you ever go to Mexico? question and what are the women like their question have you been anywhere different lately? 

Good night
