Hello, my name is Demetris, and I am from Portland, Oregon. I invite you to consider the perspective of someone who has spent years in confinement. I hope you can look beyond my hardships and emotional scars to see the genuine individual I am today. I strive to be open-minded, non-judgmental, and maintain a calm demeanor, valuing a free-spirited approach to life. While I appreciate relaxed environments, I also possess a serious and determined nature.
My purpose for joining this platform is to seek authentic friendships with individuals willing to communicate openly and build meaningful connections. Living behind these walls presents unique challenges to one’s mental health, making honest communication even more essential.
Currently, I am pursuing an Associate of Arts degree in Business and Marketing, with aspirations to give back to the community by working with youth. This passion is personal to me, as I experienced homelessness as a young person and recognize how a caring mentor could have influenced my path and potentially kept me out of prison.
If you are interested in connecting further, please reach out via email at www.securustech.net/emessaging, referencing Demetris Gibson #422585. My current location is Monroe Correctional Complex, Washington State DOC. Email is the most efficient way to receive a response from me.
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.
