"Well, then he must have pi$$ed somebody off. Either he dissed somebody in the jail, or he dissed an inmate’s friend or relative in the street."

Definitely possible. Incarcerated celebs also face a unique threat in being surrounded by dead-enders with no purpose in life who may find meaning in just being remembered as, "the guy that nailed R. Kelly."

yeah... so?

Yep. Having worked as an officer in NY State’s prison system for 25 years, I saw plenty. They wear their crimes as a badge of honor, and brag about it. I retired 16 years ago, and I’m sure it’s gotten even worse since then. And convicts hold grudges. They could have had a run-in with someone on the street, and years later, if they ran across that person, a friend, or a member of that person’s family, the grudge would be repaid.

You have more corrections experience than me. I was a combat support military police officer, but had some friends who were on the corrections side. I was having a conversation with a friend who commanded the Army's confinement facility in Korea, and we were discussing confinee behavior.

He asked me, "Do you know who Christopher Scarver is?"

I said, "Nope."

He said, "You don't know, and don't care, and the vast majority of people you'd ask wouldn't know or care, but in his mind and in his prison, he's a legend for killing Geoffrey Dahmer. A prisoner has to find meaning where he can."

Christopher Scarver's actions kept the Democrats from being able to invite Dahmer to speak at the DNC this year. They had to invite murderer Donna Hylton instead.

In my first 3 years I was assigned to Auburn prison in Auburn, NY. It hosted the first electric chair execution in the State. One of the first convicts I came across was Winston Moseley, who attacked and murdered Kitty Genovese in 1964. I recognized him as prior to taking the job, I'd watched an interview of him on one of the TV networks. The guy was a true scumbag. We also had Ronnie DeFeo, of the Amityville murders. Another convict who was at Auburn while I was there was Howard "Buddy" Jacobson, ex-horse trainer and murderer. There were plenty other convicts doing time for murder. One had been on death row, but had his sentence commuted to life when they eliminated the death penalty. He was the only convict who had an H in his number. That stood for death house.

Hollywood and the music industry protected this scum for ever.

He walks up to the jail cell
He goes up to the jail cell
Now he’s at the jail cell
Damn he’s opening the jail cell?

Now you’ve done it.
