      thank god for redemption.for us all. i am Glad God blessed him after his sin..like God has blessed us all after all our sins.. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. ALL> yep even the Pharisee sinner .who wants to say. oh i never did this or that. or that.. soooo. but the truly repenting sinner.said..Lord just have mercy on me. and God justified him more thatn the PHarisee who thought because he didn't do 33 years. he was better with his OTHER sin..no both were sinners. Banky.. thank you. for your testimony ..God is good to us ALL..ONe more day.. I won't complain either and i will enjoy my life every day.. making the most of every waking moment for GOOD.

      Hey Banky when you was In Nottaway was there a guy there named Wasim during the time you were there name may have been Campbell before he joined Islamic sect? Are you able answer some of these questions or do they go to others first? He lived in Manassas VA. I have been searching for his family since 2002. I was in Goochland during that time serving 5 yrs.

    I don't know who this gentleman is or what he did, but GOD has allowed him to obtain so much wisdom and discernment during those 33 years. I could listen to him talk all day. As a matter of fact, he needs to do a TED Talk, and most definitely speak at middle and high schools to help these young people who are heading or contemplating heading down the wrong path. I can only imagine the full depth of what he's seen and experienced as he's giving us the "nice" version of his experiences over the past 33 years. I pray that the rest of his days are fruitful and blessed IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!!!

    I spent nearly 7 years as a volunteer counselor in the state of Virginia prisons after college. I was completely blown away and educated by events inside the prison walls. What was so ironic was the level of integrity and wits of inmates toward each other. In the early 2000s I spent 4 years doing inmate payroll for 28 state prisons Correctional enterprise shops for the state of Virginia. The low wages paid to inmates were heartbreaking and depressing!!!!

I guarantee it feels a Million times worse than how you feel when you get to the point of wanting to commit a crime. If it's a situation with money, revenge, whatever. Prison will make your emotions worse. You will be treated as a non human. There's noone that cares about you in there and whatever problems you have. Stay free

      The man is given up knowledge, he isnt bragging, showing respect to the elders etc. There are a lot of killers out here. You dont know. I don't see the kid idolizing the man. Mad respect to Banky and the other real ones.

    Powerful. Glad you shared this man's story, a story that ends in the way many of us are living in the beginning of that story. Life is beautiful, enjoy it while you got it. Tomorrow is another chapter.

    Banky's the dude, man. You can tell the narrative is genuine and it makes sense even if you've never been in prison. This was a real professional-feel vid. Props to Joe and Banky. Thanks, Bros.

    WTF, if you spent 33 year's, that's 33, year's, locked up. You read, study, everything, and everyone.You're with yourself, just you 24/7, letting that time, service you. You should be smart. Why are people surprised, by this mans intelligent? What an insult, to this Brother.
