Locked Up, What To Do When Your AZZ Get's Locked Up - A Poor Man's Guide To Freedom by Nancy Lockhart, is selectively designed as a tool against mass incarceration.
Sample From Book.
- SHUT THE HELL UP
- ASK FOR AN ATTORNEY
If
you talk, you could and probably will end up hurting yourself. In
other words – ya might catch a bad case.
What
are Miranda Rights?
"You
have the right to remain silent.
- Anything you say can
and will be used against you in a court of law.
- You have the right to
an attorney.
- If you cannot afford an
attorney, one will be appointed for you.
- If
you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for
you."(www.findlaw.com)
- DO NOT RUN – DO NOT
RESIST ARREST
Resisting arrest - don't hit the officer, push the officer or slap his hands away. What probably would have been a misdemeanor is now a felony because you touched the officer. You're headed to the penitentiary now for assault on an officer.
There is a great increase in police shootings and killings around the country. Don't give the officer a reason to shoot you.
Keep your hands out of your pockets! You do not want to give the police the idea that there is a weapon in your pockets. Keep your hands visible.
- Try
to remember the officer's name and badge number.
- Two Wrongs Don't Make A Right
Don't sit there
saying you want to get out of jail and you are in jail committing
crimes. Do you actually want to get out or, are you just talking?
Don't waste your money, your loved one's money or anybody else's
money sitting up in the jail house talking on an illegal cell phone,
using drugs or anything else they told you not to do. Two Wrongs
Don't Make A Right.
GET YOUR MIND
RIGHT
- If you are reading this and you are incarcerated, get your mind right.
- That's important – GET YOUR MIND RIGHT.
Call On God,
Jesus, Buddha, Allah, or your ancestors. Ancestors are Uncle Tony who
died last year, grandmother who passed long time ago and anyone else
in your blood line who made the transition (died). Other ancestors
are those who worked in the trenches.
Get your mind
right. Learn to play the game quickly.
- YOU ONLY GET ONE TIME TO MAKE A GOOD IMPRESSION
So, it's time for
trial and you're overly anxious awaiting this date. Several very
small things will make this stressful situation a lot smoother and
more successful. Freedom For The Poor requires some work on your
part.
Appearance – For
Men - A short haircut will gain yourself positive results. If you
have locks, a long wildin afro or braids. I suggest that you cut your
hair into a very neat low (to the scalp) hair cut. Now, I love locks,
braids and semi wildin fros but, the judge and jury may not.
Have someone buy
you a pair of pants that is your size – with a belt.
- During the trial, sit up straight in the chair, don't slouch down in the chair. Sit up straight and remain calm and cool – even if the police officer who arrested you lies.
Appearance – For
Women
Wear a skirt that
is long enough to reach your knees. Wear a blouse that covers
cleavage and your arms. I would remove long fake nails and the tall
hair do. Remember that you're seeking freedom – this is not a
beauty contest.
- Attitude – change your negative attitude. Call on your maker, your God or ancestors. Do whatever it is you have to do – change the negative attitude. Be respectful.
- Never Give Up – Help yourself. Read, and take notes. Keep a journal with the facts of your case.
