Crimes against Oneself

 

 They accused me of attempted suicide and had me imprisoned.

 

My attorney was unable to validate my alibi since at the time of the crime I was asleep and all the evidence was gone.

 

I was sentenced for life with no right of judicial appeal. My inmates have been convicted for similar crimes even though there are offenders serving lighter sentences, mainly for self-injuring. 

 

Now, I apply myself to hard labour, isolation and occasional tortures upon my inmates. 

 

There is no escape plan for the time being.
