In Parish Prison there was a man everyone called “The Footman.”If you’ve never been locked up, you probably can’t guess why someone would earn a name like that.But once you understand prison culture… it makes a lot more sense.#prisonstory #storytime

The head of the Aryan Brotherhood at FCI Beaumont was my cubemate. Prison isn’t about ideology. It’s about control. If you think you understand prison politics… you don’t.#PrisonStories #FederalPrison #TrueStory #JusticeSystem #Storytime

Meet The Other Miss Tyra, Milky Way, and of course, Miss Frank, as we dive in another story about prison time on L2.Pravity Season 2 Episode 6! Beauty was currency on L2... and sometimes it got taken by force. franklet.com/help #pravity #storytime #prisonstories #memoir #fyp

Season 2, Episode 4 — VisitationWhile I was housed on L2 at East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, I was close enough to home that friends and family could visit regularly.In this episode, I break down what visitation actually looked like: the locked metal booths, the old handset phones, the tiny diamond-shaped window of plate glass, and the fifteen-minute limits. Protective custody inmates weren’t supposed to be placed in that environment — but lazy policies and lazy guards meant we often were, locked in with men from other units where violence and sexual politics could erupt at any moment.Visitation is supposed to be a lifeline. In parish prison, it was just another place where scarcity, risk, and survival rules still applied.

I got into three fights in parish prison.I won two. I lost one.This episode is about scarcity, ego, sex, humiliation, and what happens when pride collides with insecurity inside a locked unit. From commissary theft to prison sexual politics to a fight I absolutely should have won — and didn’t — this is the anatomy of violence on a protected custody line.Prison doesn’t make you strong. It makes you reactive. Sometimes you survive. Sometimes you get humbled.And sometimes the person who beats you is the one who liked you all along.

The worst four days I ever spent in East Baton Rouge Parish Prison were on lockdown.In this episode, I explain what “lockdown” actually means inside a parish prison — the layout, the cells, the hallway they call yard time, and the three kinds of people who end up there: classification cases, disciplinary cases, and the mentally ill.You’ll hear about Delaysia, a trans woman who did me a real favor, and why cutting open a prison mattress could mean the difference between dignity and humiliation. Scarcity changes people. Confinement sharpens it.This isn’t television lockdown. It’s closer, dirtier, and far more absurd.

Welcome back!Two weeks ago, a drunk driver ran a red light and nearly killed my son and me. My son is still in the hospital. My car is gone. Louisiana’s gutted tort law means there is no system waiting to catch you when you fall.And then we go back to prison.After being sexually assaulted in Tangipahoa Parish Jail, I requested a transfer back to East Baton Rouge Parish Prison — back to L2, the self-proclaimed “homosexual line,” the only place that ever felt remotely safe. I walk you through what that transfer looked like, what the U.S. Marshals are really like, and the moment I stepped back onto the tier and saw my tragic boyfriend again.Season 2 picks up where we left off.Because the truth still has teeth.

The end of Season 1.This is what survival sounds like when there’s no hero music and no fade-out — only breath, truth, and the sound of someone still here.It’s the aftermath, the silence, the bureaucracy, the fight to stay human when the system says you don’t matter.It’s what comes after no one listens, and what happens when you finally do.This is closure, not comfort.The story doesn’t end here — but the telling does.🎙 Pravity Season 1 Finale — TheRapist (Pt. 2).Thank you for staying.Season 2 begins February 2026.

The story turns.Back to Tangipahoa. Back to the cell. Back to the moment that changes everything.This isn’t fiction. This is testimony — the truth behind the jokes, behind the calm, behind the myth of punishment.There’s no filter, no fade-out. Only a man, a bunk, a system that didn’t care, and a country that let it happen in its name.If you’ve made it this far, you already know what courage sounds like.If you haven’t — listen anyway.🎙 Pravity Season 1 Finale Pt 1 — “TheRapist.”

When a new cellmate moves in, Frank meets Tyree Hammond — a man whose presence shifts the energy of the entire unit. What starts with small gifts, kindness, and attention begins to morph into something more dangerous. Through a haze of roaches, radios, and card games, prison politics twist into survival tactics, and survival itself becomes a kind of surrender.This is the story of how power hides in plain sight, how “protection” turns into possession, and how even the smallest kindness can start to feel like a trap.

Episode 12 · The Law Is Not ImpartialRoaches on the walls. Paperwork on the floor. A Brady violation that should have set me free — and didn’t. Somewhere between the guard shack and the courthouse, I finally learned what justice actually is: a story told by people who think they’re not part of it.This isn’t about violence. It’s about the slow violence of paperwork, power, and people pretending not to see.🎙 PRAVITY · Season 1 ✨ franklet.com / it's still good to want things ✨

Episode 10 – Harry Potter and the Prisoner of L2A light fixture becomes a charger, a cellphone becomes a lifeline, and the wrong number feels like love when you’re locked in Tangipahoa Parish. Frank (“Harry Potter”) takes you back inside the L2 unit — where wit, rage, and desperation spark like bad wiring. This is where contraband meets confession: a true story about how a single phone call to Tragic Boyfriend can feel like both salvation and relapse. Funny until it’s not, honest even when it hurts. This is *Pravity*.

PRAVITY Ep 10 – Harry Potter and the Chain of a HoleFrank leaves L2 behind and heads for Tangipahoa Parish, where he becomes “Harry Potter” — a name born of boredom, books, and the brutal rhythm of jail transfers. Between Robert Jordan novels, a dusty dayroom, and a fellow inmate with a contraband phone, this chapter starts calm and ends with a question that’ll pull listeners straight into the next one.🖤 franklet.com | it's still good to want things#pravity #prisonstories #memoir #audiostory #franklet

**PRAVITY Ep 9 – Zoo Zoos & Consequences**Frank arrives on L2, the infamous “gay line” of East Baton Rouge Parish Prison—pink-painted walls, queens for miles, and the strange order of a world built from chaos. He meets Kyra, watches loyalty and hunger play out in the smallest gestures, and learns how survival bends every rule. When someone steals the first commissary he’s had in months, the lesson turns violent. It’s the episode where humor, hunger, and rage collide—where *Zoo Zoos* stop being sweets and become currency, and consequences taste like blood and salt. 🎙️ **Short Summary (for app preview):** Life, loyalty, and violence on the L2 line—Frank learns how survival turns candy into currency. 🎧 **Tags / Metadata:** true story • prison memoir • LGBTQ • survival • addiction • storytelling • franklet • PRAVITY

After months on the run and a Con Air flight through the federal system, I’m sent back to Baton Rouge — and into L2, the notorious “gay line” of East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.This is my first time there: the humiliating intake, the pastel-pink holding tank, the absurd telephone relay between cells, and the moment I saw him again — the man who betrayed me, spent my money, and still somehow made my heart ache when he jumped into my arms.A study in what love looks like when it’s poisoned — and what survival feels like when you still crave the poison.

What is it like to lose all your music? Many of you will never know - many of you weren't around when tapes and CDs were all you had with which to wander the world, that and meh radio stations. So along came MP3s and digital music and eventually streaming. I was in prison when streaming music really became a thing - but before that she was a downloading franklet - and when I went inside I INSTANTLY lost access to something which prior to arrest had been a daily necessity for me for over a decade: listening to whatever music from my collection I wanted. Wherever I was, whenever I wanted.Seems trite but I ask, kindly to imagine yourself losing all your entertainment at once. And sit with the feeling that brings.Then, listen to me talk about it. <3

Sending people to prison is wrong on many levels, but sending people to prison who pick your fruit, build your homes, serve your food, fix your cars, and a litany of other things my fellow Americans are too bougie to do - when that's just the worst mix of immoral and lazy I can easily imagine. Selfish and cruel to boot.
