He entered prison in 1994 at the age of 21 after being convicted for participating in a crack cocaine dealing ring (along with several other co-defendants). He was sentenced to 30 years in prison, although his sentence was later reduced to about 20 years due to a federal sentencing amendment. He is scheduled to be released in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>I recently spoke with Matt about how he ended up in prison, his experiences there, his perspectives on the criminal justice system, and how people can help ex-offenders. Here is what he had to say to us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> Why do think you ended up in prison?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> I was 21 when I got locked up. I lacked guidance as far as going beyond high school. I was pretty much limited. The teens in here now don\u2019t have a sense of direction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> What was your experience like when you were first incarcerated?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> I went through a process of being angry. Then I tried to correct it and make the change that\u2019s needed. At first you don\u2019t have a clear vision. Then you try to re-establish family ties. You just can\u2019t lose your sense of hope.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> What have you missed most since entering prison?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> Family ties and my bond with my family. It\u2019s hard to stay in touch with family, especially children. They don\u2019t know you because you don\u2019t have a physical bond with them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> How have you seen inmates treated in prison?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> A lot of the prison guards treat people like animals. Some treat you like a human being, it just depends. We\u2019re still people and should be treated like that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> What\u2019s been the low-point of your time in prison?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> Being away from my children. That sense of loss.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> What has been the highpoint?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> I received a certification in counseling and can be an assistant to a counselor and do intakes. I became registered with the department of labor as quality inspector. I\u2019ve learned a lot about computers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> What are your plans when you\u2019re released?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> My plan is to try to re-establish family ties, that physical and mental bond with my family, especially my children. That is what\u2019s most important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> Are you concerned about what you will do once released?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> I\u2019m concerned about getting a job because of the economy. I have tried to acquire job-related skills while in prison.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> If you had one thing to tell people about the criminal justice system, what would you say?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> Just because someone is in prison doesn\u2019t mean they are a bad person. The system turns its back on people, it just throws people away. There is no emphasis on rehabilitation. There are some programs but not a lot. I don\u2019t think the system is fair.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> How can we prevent people from ending up in prison?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> People should be made aware about the law and explain it to those in the community \u2013 people in the community don\u2019t know about the law. You have to know the law.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q:<\/strong> How can people help those leaving prison and reentering the community?<br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> We need job skills, wraparound services like housing. We need help to re-establish family ties and get bare essentials needed to reintegrate in society.<\/p>\n<p>After speaking with Matt, I thanked him for his time. I had interrupted his participation in a work program at the prison, although I never bothered to ask what he was doing. Matt faces an uphill battle to say the least. Felony convictions have a way of changing people\u2019s perceptions of an individual (not to mention their ability to vote, get a job). Who will help Matt find a job, a place to live? Will the church reach out to him and invite him in as a brother, a friend? Will he find a sense of community in our sanctuaries, our backyards, our conversations?<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s note: During this year\u2019s Annual Meeting, the Christian Action Commission presented a draft resolution on Criminal Justice that will be voted on during next year\u2019s Annual Meeting.
