Dear Nelly,
I'm sitting here watching you on T.V. at this very moment and these are my thoughts.That machine that takes pictures of the brain?Is it a CATSCAN?I ask this because I see there are some "limitations" on your studies because of my imprisonment.Well,I know for a fact that I had a CATSCAN done in early 2006,in an outside hospital.On May 1,2006,I was hit from behind in the head.My facial bones were broken which was the reason for the catscan.If you had these catscan photos would it help your studies?I'm not sure if the outside hospital keeps those on file or if the prison does,but is this something you want me to look into?
My opinion(s) is that my make-up was due to my environment!I believed this before I met you and believe it even further after watching you on NOVA.
Though I do believe a defense attorney will grasp thin air to give a defendant a proper defense,I don't believe the courts will accept this technology on warrior genes yet.I mean,a defendant can put forth ANY defense,but I'm not sure it will be given much weight yet.I could see it being utilized in presentence reports hoping sentences will be lighter.
I do believe that the warrior gene exist,but as the program suggested,it goes back to one's upbringing(environment).I believe my childhood/early teens were shaped/molded while I lived at home and it erupted when I was thrown out of my house.Without supervision I suppose I exceled in destruction.
I definitely think DNA is one of the best discoveries ever!It helps catch criminals as well as exonerates many.
I started the second grade when I moved to Rocky Point,so I believe I was 7 years old?I think the earliest memory I have of my stepfather was when I was 7 years old and I'm not sure if I told you about it?It was the day we moved to Rocky Point and we were unloading the U-haul truck.I picked up a B.B. gun that I began playing with.Nothing serious,but as a child I picked it up aiming it like I was shooting at something.My stepfather screamed at me and hit me for playing with the B.B. gun.I was made to sit in the room that would be mine.It had nothing in the room so I had to sit on the hardwood floor!The reason I bring this up again is because it is the first memory I have of my stepfather.
I remember when my younger brother was born(I was 5)and the day my mother & father brought him home.I don't remember my stepfather from that day,but I knew it was him driving because he was married to my mother then(so it had to be him).
One day I'd like to ask my sister if she remembers ANY happy memories of him because no matter how much I disliked him,I'd still admit to a happy memory,but I just can't remember one.I don't know why I was thinking this,but I was.
With these short letters I am leaving you time to do other things in your day.I'll close for now and until next time,take good care.
James
