Offender’s quotes from Anger Class
Ó Carl Reddick

 

*     I got snitched off. It’s all about the drugs anyway

*     My PO got me busted

*     I was drinking that night and there were hard family feelings

*     I’m here on trumped up charges

*     Pride

*     I wouldn’t have done it if I hadn’t ‘a been high

*     I lost control of myself

*     I was drunk and I beat up ‘somebody’

*     The police didn’t have any brains...he was stupid

*     The guy hit me so I beat him up, back

*     I was takin’ care of ‘my own’

*     I’m here for protecting my kids

*     I was so mad I blacked out

*     My sister is a tweekin’ cop-caller

*     I was going to get kicked out so I got mad

*     I did what any man would do

*     She was drunk so I poured beer on her

*     My wife has a drug problem

*     Don’t know...I’ve been bad all my life
