34 Years in Hell: My Time Inside America's Toughest Prisons

Product Information

Jamie’s journey to America started as a child when he was taken from the Isle of Man to Canada before ending up in the US and being sold to a family aged 14. He later married, had a child and worked as a mechanic, but his life was turned upside down when he discovered a corpse in his house and removed it out of fear he would be blamed. This book tells of his time: locked up with no hope of release, living the brutality of the unforgiving penitentiary system and finding his new purpose in life, as well as tales of his many run-ins with some of the world's most dangerous inmates. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. He said from a young age he had been told he had been born on the Isle of Man and that his real name was Morgan James Kane.

He has contacted the Guinness Book of Records, as be believes this is the latest Birth Registration in the Isle of Man and maybe the UK as well. As for the ink, the simplest and most common method I saw was to take the paper sack that we got our lunch in, turn it upside down, set fire to a Styrofoam cup, and then collect the sooty smoke in the bag. If you've been following my blog a while you will know prison interests me so I love to read them and the stories within them. Jamie Morgan Kane, who was convicted of murder after pleading guilty in 1984, has spent half his life in US jails.

He was moved between so many prisons in the 34 years and denied bail so many times, but he never gave up and I applaud him for that. Jamie entered the American prison system and was to stay there for 34 years with stints in San Quentin , Folsom State Prison and the notorious Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI) in California.

I used to advise guys who were thinking of getting a tattoo to really think about it, and not just because of the political problems that could arise. I have no idea why this man put himself in the position of going to prison for something he didn’t do. It begins early in 1954 on the Isle of Man when Jamie's father filed for divorce from his mother who was eight months pregnant with him. Fearing that he would be held responsible, Jamie says he disposed of the body, but was caught by the authorities. No missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, no underlining or highlighting of text, and no writing in the margins.

He got in contact with the Isle of Man authorities to find out what was needed for him to get the birth certificate.
