My name is Derek…. I’m a mechanic and tattoo artist by trade. I’ve got 2 kids I adore. I’ve spent quite some time behind bars due in part to my love of the rock star lifestyle… fast cars, loud bikes, beautiful women, guns, drugs, sex and violence. Prison does suck though, only so much time everyday can be spent lifting weights and watching tv. Boredom and loneliness are a drag. I believe having someone out there to talk to, to lean on and share day to say struggles with really helps someone like me, who’s lost everything and everyone rolling the dice and living the life. I’d love to spend time getting to know you and helping you with an ear and a shoulder to hear about your struggles. I’m really easygoing, nonjudgmental, honest and loyal. I’d love to hear from you. Hit me up on here or on the Getting Out app. I look forward to hearing 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.
