My heart goes out to u OG … My Dad died in Angola after doing 36 years before he Past from Baton Rouge His Name Was WEEMAN KAUFMAN Who was what OGS CALL BIG BIG TREE ARE TIMBER .. We brought him home to Rest in PEACE
My cousin killed himself in Angola,I would talk to him on a regular told him hold on,but he couldn't take it
My condolences bro
@@user-ws6oh5bn9ewhat we're u telling him to hold on to you
@@rondas7772 You can't tell him how to honor HIS deceased father, rude b**tch
@@rondas7772do you know what OG means?
The ironic thing about Angola is that you as a prisoner could be working in a field on the farm on prison property that your great, great grandfather worked in as a slave. Yes, Angola was a slave plantation. At one time well over 95% of the prisoners who came to Angola died there because of the life sentences (not to mention the executions) and many are buried on the prison property because their bodies were not claimed.
There are many accurate books about the history of Angola and many biographies of inmates past and present
Who cares?
@@jacksonlee3771I do
So glad they put the music in so that I couldn't hear the man talk !!
I can't tell you how much I enjoy these old lifer interviews
I remember going on a tour to Angola when I was a teen.. some scared straight stuff.. show us where we gonna end up if we continue the route into adult life.. that tour change my whole outlook on life..😮😮😮
Praise God. I'm glad you were scared straight.
Every second that I feel my heart going out to him….i realize I have to remember the victim also. The example hard time sets in society to criminals. It’s sad but necessary. I hope that dude has some semblance of peace the remaining years of his life.
Armed Robbery? Did he kill someone? This is state-legalized slavery. Nothing more, nothing less.
I agree all these peoples cases should be reviewed and the ones that are good release them
My heart goes out to him!!❤❤❤ doesn't seem like he should be there forever 😢😢😢
Ask his victims what they think.
Appreciate you and your story! 💕
God Bless you and hope prayers makes your days a little more blessed
Angola is modern day slavery its so sad hearing these stories.
They're all innocent. Whites go to work and keep the wheels turning for everyone else
I kept yelling turn the music down,my so sais its the video,why?
God Bless You ❤Praying for better days for you ❤
Extremely interesting and informative.
Since 1959 oh my God and he was 17 ! Wow wow
Crazy eh
He said he was 17 when he joined the Marines in 1971.
He’s not talking g about himself if you listen
Could do without the banjo. Made it hard to hear
This wild as hell man!
My dad been home a year from Angola they give him life for drugs, He got very sick and they send him home
We are some of the most sympathetic people towards criminals. What about the victims, and their families...the murdered victim can't come back, and their families have to live with that forever. They can be forgiven, but their convictions need to stand, even after 60 years old!
We need longer videos
What’s up with those chairs do they make them for state offices or do they sell them or what?
Its so sad one mistake can screw up your whole life so badly....kids, young people do things with out stopping to think of the results of their actions....you mess up...... jail....
My uncle died in Angola a couple of years ago
What did he do?
GOD have mercy. 😢
So so sad..smh
Very very sad
Oh my God this is tragic as hell because of small mistakes in life they will never get out and when they do they come right back
... we have to build a bridge across to give those who wish, and who will, another chance at Freedom !! ...
That music tho makes it all seem so quaint.
You can’t hear
Where can I purchase those chairs?
@@susanstamper9813 …I checked the website and don’t see anything for purchase. I’m located in Texas. I’m guessing they have some type of wood shop program where the inmates sell the stuff they make for currency on their books. I’ll keep searching, thank you though.
Please add Louisiana to the title to avoid confusion with Angola, which is a country in Africa. The national official language is Portuguese. The capital is Luanda.
I would rather be in the one in Louisiana then the one in Africa.
@Trackratz-zl9di Angola is far a much better country than the hole you are referring to . No wonder you can not speak and write English!!! And it is "than" not "then" like you wrote!! What a big shame! You are illiterate! Go to school!!
@@Trackratz-zl9dilol
Think this is bad, the real Hell is worse. This earthly prison is just a shadow of the real thing.
How you know,,, you been there
Should have a prison like this in every state.
Bla blala
He went in for arm robbery, for 30yrs & caught life for stabbing someone in there 😢
My GOD!
If these people had a chance at freedom things would probably be a whole lot easier in the prison. I hope Louisiana really takes a look at how they’re condemning these people regardless of the crime instead of giving them a chance at redemption especially when it’s a charge they got when they were younger.
"Some of the crimes we did don't deserve the time we been here." Maybe, but if you murdered someone you should be required to forfeit the rest of your life.
I believe all life sentences should be reevaluated after the age of 60. It’s a known fact that people are totally different physically and mentally after 60.
@tonythomas1010 is that going to bring my grandmother back. if he is released after spending 25 years in prison.
I totally agree
@tonythomas1010 did I say 5 years. Also, I stated re evaluated after 60 years of age.
@tonythomas1010 you might want to re read my original comment. Key words were reevaluate and sixty years old.
God sees all, knows all, judges all. God’s justice awaits all men in eternity. God may have a better place for some of these men than some that have wielded earthly power.
Everything he just said was basically the structure of Louisiana's mindset. It's stagnates time. As tarnished the growth, the economical growth in this society. It is literally deadweight in its mindset and way of thinking. It's literally deadweight mentality. There is no growth as a whole as a government as one body With this stagnation Economical stance. There is no time it freezes time and takes time away by doing so.
People have Been in jail since 1969 😢
Louisiana don't play
Louisiana still leads the Nation with incarcerated people.. Big Money 💰
At all!
🙏🏿🙏🏿
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time....
Yeah. You can easily say that when you didn’t grow up in poverty. The politicians stealing all the money. The prison system is big money in Louisiana.
Everybody in Louisiana knows that life means life but yet they do the crime.
That’s got to be an old film because you can’t be 61 years old and be 17 in 1971
I’m 61 years old and graduated HS in 1981. If he went in Marine Corp out of HS in 1971 he’d be ten years older than me (if he wasn’t held back in school). So, he could be 71 years old or the film is from ten years ago.
@@billf7062 I figured as much because I’m 57 and graduated in 84 . I actually went into the Marine Corps at 17 myself.
Considered The Marine Corp for a minute. The recruiter called my house for weeks. Hope it was a good experience for you.
That’s not right
He said “some people in here should be given a chance.” If you k!ll someone, you don’t deserve a chance or freedom…no matter how old you are. Your victim didn’t get a chance to live their life, so why should you.
@banzy. Do you believe in God?
?et this manfree
They make some cool jewelry there.
The brother talks about time. Inconsideration or being in slaved. It restructures the mind. The hold pattern is the same.

We need a prison like this in every state I took my Sunday school class on a tour they got all kind of excerise machines and a commentary store to buy anything they want as long as money on the books sad the jails are a home away from home
💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🙏✊✊✊
The LORD knows all about it 🙏
Somebody come get America. I mean "God Bless it aka America"so that somebody can come get it PPLEASE
30 yrs go by fast even on the outside
There's no such thing as a fast "30 years"
This is so sad, unfortunately racism has a lot to do with the sentencing. No opportunity to reform, some of the crime really don’t deserve the time. Pray for our bias judicial system .
@tonythomas1010racism because black males have harsher and longer sentences than white males who commit the same crime, that's where racism comes into play
@tonythomas1010 Not for a 17yo
It is sad people get locked away for life when they made a mistake as a teenager. He is not the same person that committed the crime so long ago. Although I doubt he could adjust to living outside now.
Committing armed robbery and then murder is not a mistake. It’s a choice. He made his choice and prison is his consequence.
A common thread with all of these inmates is blaming others and a victim mentality.... Even at 61 he is still blaming other people......
Angola is horrid😢😢
Angola bound now!
All these people on here are feeling sorry for him. Had he not been locked up at Angola? He would’ve been out on the streets, robbing and stealing, and probably killing so in someways, Angola saves, lies, as well as having people die there.
Go find my daddy he’s in there
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Military. You suppose to know better 😢
Shut up
No not true, doesn't mean you'll do better
If only 2 little words Jesus Christ 2 little words that can change your whole life Which one would You choose amen 🙏
Two Words huh..JESUS CHRIST,,,A fairy story,,this is real life..
They need to let these people go
Jeff Landry has the power to improve conditions in Angola prison, to release prisoners on the 10-2 ruling and see prison as a place of rehabilitation not life long punishment! He needs to move away from the Jim Crow mentality, modernize and believe in redemption!
Wheres all the white dudes?
Who benefits by keeping killers alive? This is pointless. How many kids could’ve been helped with the money spent on someone that is holding society back. This is just horrible
Let them people out of that place
Would you say the same if it was your mother they murdered?
@@johnallen7807 hello today I do have a right to my opinion
Did I say you hadn't? but I notice you don't answer my question.@@dorothy7382
@@dorothy7382as long as they come stay at your house and you support them.
@west0498 nope no way
Knowing are rigid Louisiana laws are on black peoples why would any black person commit a crime in this state And then complain about the time given to you.
@tonythomas1010 Not true
Do you know that most of those inmates have been convicted with little or no defense. Louisiana has the most overturned convictions in the nation for prosecutorial misconduct. Just think of all the inmates that can’t get back in court.
Have you ever had a Louisiana Police arrest you because they have to meet their quotas? Stop thinking everyone committed a crime.
@@ikewilson4500 again why put yourself in harm’s way. I’m a 74 year old black man, was always told by the men in my family, you always have to choose what best for you. Don’t be a follower. Because the law is not applied to us equally don’t to do bad. We have to except responsibility for our actions,and stop blaming it on the SYSTEM. As I said the laws don’t put black men in prison,doing the crime does. Knowing how the legal system works against you why commit a crime.
@nathanielwilson1899 Good for you. But when you're in poverty, it is survival.
