The first 3 were all short-term drug offenders, and were given medium security status. After having them strip and cavity searched…right in front of everyone…they were given black-striped, short prison dresses to wear….they looked like something out of those women-in-prison flicks from the seventies, but were striped instead of blue. Their number was stenciled on the front, and a large “SPW" was stenciled on the back.
The “beauty salon" was set up to the left, and three inmates who were hairdressers on the outside gave them their “regular prison haircuts"….not too bad, but short as hell!
The fourth con called to the stage was my lover, soul mate and business partner Cory. With her record, she was pretty much guaranteed max status….but that wasn’t going to make it any easier in seeing her lose that gorgeous red mane of hers!
The warden treated her the same as the first three, even though Cory was the undisputed “queen of the cons" in here. “Inmate #86149- McManus, C, having been convicted of a tier one offense of violence, and having accumulated a total of 6 strikes for violation of prison rules, you are hereby committed to the maximum security unit at hard labor, with no re-classification eligibility for five years. Guards, commence the procedure!"
Poor Cory! Her chains were removed and she was stripped and all of her holes were probed right in front of everyone. It hurt me to see our leader and my girlfriend totally humiliated like that! Then they gave her the ugly red striped coveralls…with no underwear…to put on.
Finally, it was time for her head-shaving. The guards pushed her toward a heavy “restraint chair" on the stage. Cory resisted for a minute, but it was useless. The shoved her in the chair, then fastened the straps to hold her ankles, waist and wrists to the chair. Then a wooden yoke was fastened to her neck to keep her head from moving.
