Malice

Yes I went to prison. No it wasn't totally my fault. My step dad was attacking my mom. I intervened and we got into it, he said he implied he was about to shoot me ("you're gonna regret this, just wait right here" he said) and started walking to his room where he keeps the gun, panicking I grabbed the poker iron and ran in and started hitting him with it. My mom screamed at me to stop and I was killing him. I barely remember the details but all I was thinking about was how in the past he would go in grab the gun and be menacing with it. I thought, this is it, this is the day it happens.

The cops got there. My mom explained what happened. I went to jail, even though it was self defense they didn't agree. Their argument was if I was so afraid why did I chase him into the room instead of running away. And I hardly got a chance to speak and/or explain myself because it wasn't just about me. Anyways... TLDR I had about years of my life deleted. My late teenage, and into my early 20s... all gone. I had to go to mental facilities as well for awhile.

I'm not dangerous, I never was as a kid. I had no history of violence until that night. And I have had no issues since then. I used to be normal, have a normal life. I liked reading, hiking, playing games and watching shows and listening to music. But it's all different now.
