Out Here

Guardian UK: 'Out here, I still don't know how to live': 6,000 drug convicts brace for release - This weekend, the last of prisoners granted reduced sentences under a federal reform plan will be released. But advocates say the government continues to overlook and ignore ex-convicts
“I can go into any prison right now and within 10 minutes I’m going to know everybody, what’s the scheme, how the power structure works. Out here, I still don’t know how to live.”

At this point paying off your crime debt in prison is just the beginning, the debt continues on. The key is a plan and some reasonable support after prison.
