North Carolina Zachary Lintz – Inmate Penpal #051417-2208

 May 14, 2017  ¤  Male Inmates Age 26 - 30

Since the day of my arrest, I’ve been fighting to overcome prejudices and assumptions.

When I write my memoirs (one day soon, I swear) I’ll title them More Than a Conviction or 1,000 Ways to Prevent Yourself from Murdering Your Cellmate. (Spoiler alert: most of them involve sleeping as much as possible.) Note: If a convicted felon making casual murder jokes strikes you as inappropriate, our sense of humor as likely incompatible. Just know they are nothing more than jokes.

Anywho more than a conviction. I’ve struggled with not letting my single biggest mistake in my life define who I am or who I am going to be going forward. And that’s really all I am looking for here: a chance to be a person again. An opportunity to


North Carolina Kelly Montjoy – Inmate Penpal #042217-1937

 April 22, 2017  ¤  Female Inmates Age 21 - 25

Hey my name is Kelly.

I’m a 20 year old white female. I was on heroin really bad and I violated my prole, so that is why I’m here.

I have no one to help me while in here. I so can’t wait get out this place and I need someone to write me to pass time and if you feel it in your heart to help me while I’m in here, i would really love that. Prayers help too.

Please pray for me, that I may detox and come out of here clean.

North Carolina Steve Hipps – Prison Penpal #070313-2214

 July 3, 2013  ¤  Male Inmates Age 46 - 50

Hello, my name is Steve Hipps.

I am currently serving a 196-245 month sentence in the NC Department of Corrections. My projected release date is April of 2024. I hope and pray that my health and spirits hold up during the coming years.

My main objective in signing up with the Inmate Outreach Program is to make new friends on the outside that know and understand that not all people in prison are bad. Yes, we have made mistakes or we wouldn’t be here, but, deep down we’re still decent and my wish is to meet new people who can forgive these mistakes and therefore won’t judge me. I pray
