The Road Less Traveled ·

2024/01/03

The day I was sentenced to prison was one of the lowest points in my entire life, even if it was deserved. I was ashamed of my actions and what had led me to where I was and I tried to address the court honestly, humbly and with genuine remorse. Thank you for listening and being respectful.

Episode 9 - New Years Resolutions

The Road Less Traveled ·

2023/12/27

New Years Resolutions are generally an afterthought for most people, but when I was incarcerated, it was a meaningful way for me to compartmentalize large projects and self-improvement. (I know, what NY resolutions are usually for, but when you're incarcerated you have to get more creative with less.) Thanks again for tuning in and following. See you in the New Year. - db

The Rant

The Road Less Traveled ·

2023/12/16

A special episode of The Road Less Traveled focused on the realities of searching for a job fresh out of prison. I was feeling a tad frustrated having been on the receiving end of this multiple times. Even if it's deserved, it's embarassing and shameful at times. Thank you for listening.

Episode 3 -Preliminary Hearing

The Road Less Traveled ·

2023/11/17

One of the many steps in the legal process is a preliminary hearing. The hearing is done to see if there is enough evidence to bind the case over to a higher court for trial. I think I forgot to mention that I was also and handcuffed and ankle-shackled during the proceedings. I guess it was in case I decided to make a run for it. (I wasn't going anywhere.) Thank you for listening. - db

Episode 2 - Intake

The Road Less Traveled ·

2023/11/17

The night of the accident where I was processed and taken in to jail. Jail itself was an eye opening experience and I had no idea what to expect going in. I was scared, confused, and in a lot of pain, but I'd also learned that I'd taken someone's life. It humbled me in a way I'd never thought possible. Thank you for listening. - db

Episode 1 - The Accident

The Road Less Traveled ·

2023/11/17

A recounting of the night of my car accident and subsequent arrest. This one is always hard for me to talk about, although it has gotten easier to tell over time. I was asked over and over again in both jail and prison what I was in for and had to say that I was in DUI accident where I had killed someone. I'm ashamed of what I've done and where I've been. I'm trying to find a way to understand and cope with that. Thank you for listening. - db
