Hey, I’m Austin.
My name’s Austin Fugate (IDOC #141020), and I’m currently in Idaho. I’m 30 years old, standing at 6’4” and about 240 lbs. I’m not all shredded up, but I carry myself well—definitely rocking that confident dad bod.
I’ve got about 9 months left, so right now I’m just looking to pass the time in a positive way, meet some new people, and build genuine connections. Whether it turns into a solid friendship or just good conversation to get through the days, I’m open to it.
I’m laid-back, easy to talk to, and I appreciate realness above everything. I enjoy good laughs, meaningful conversations, and learning about different people and perspectives. Loyalty means a lot to me, and I’m the kind of person who shows up for the people I care about.
If you’re someone who’s down to talk, share stories, and maybe build something real along the way, take a chance and reach out. You never know where a simple message could lead.
Hit me up on GettingOut—I’d definitely like to hear from you.
Please note: This service gives you the opportunity to send your first message to a new pen pal, free of charge. If you send more than one message to the same inmate, or a message to someone you already know, they will not be forwarded.
When you send a message using this form, our staff will print and mail it via US Mail or forward it via the prison’s email system, every two weeks. Be patient, and don’t expect an immediate reply. Inmates can’t email you back directly, so include your full name, email address, and complete mailing address or phone number for a reply. Messages without valid contact info won’t be forwarded, nor will messages with threatening or abusive language.
Want to message directly and more quickly? Check the inmate’s profile to see which email service he or she uses (i.e. GettingOut, JPay, Securus). These services cost between 5 to 50 cents per message and offer you the ability to message them directly and instantly.
