The only serious crime I have ever committed in free society was bank robbery during the time I was a fugitive.

I escaped one time. In 1971 I was in the free world for six weeks.

I am at this moment thirty-seven years old. Since aged twelve I have been free the sum total of nine and a half months.

When I'm forced by circumstances to be in a crowd of prisoners, it's all I can do to refrain from attack.

At age nine I began serving long stints in juvenile detention quarters. At age twelve I was sent to the Utah State Industrial School For Boys... at age eighteen I was released as an adult.

To be in prison so long, it's difficult to remember exactly what you did to get there.
