10 A call to Charles Manson
When most people think of Vancouver they think of an ocean side city that has the most over
priced estate market on the planet. You can live downtown without six roommates, 2 jobs
and the ability to turn a closet into a comfortable living situation. Most people ignore the dark
aspects of the cities past like O Calla prison. It was active throughout the 1900s and after
a gang riot a prisoner sent out a message to famous cult leader Charles Manson. During
this riot a prisoner slit his wrist and wrote Helter Skelter, on the wall in his own blood.
This is of course what Charles Mansons minions did after their murders in California. Some
people think this just a crazed inmate acting out in panic of the riot. Other people have
speculated that this was to send a message to manson and his supporters. Maybe the prison
right was orchestrated by one of his followers. Maybe even though manson was locked away thousands
of miles from the O Calla prison, his influence was strong enough to cause the riot.
9 Gary Gilmore Last words
Heres a very interesting message sent out from a prisoner. Gary Gilmore was a thief
and a murderer, he killed two people during robberies and after he was caught he admitted
to everything which made for a quick trial. He was sentenced to death for being such a
bad dude and as is the custom for every person before they are put to death he was given
his last words. Which were, let do it. Of course this seems like he just wanted to get
it over with. I can only imagine how some people can get waiting for their own death.
But heres the thing Gary Gilmore was executed in 1977 and nike coined there slogan Just
do it 1988. And rumor has it that Garys last words were the inspiration for the slogan.
So did Gary know that he was going to influence a giant company. Was the firing squad death
a farce, hes still alive because he was saved by the illuminati, started to work in the
massive corporation of nike and the nike slogan was his way of mocking the world. I went deep
down the conspiracy theory hole for this one. I feel that meme of Charlie from always sunny
with the paper and all the strings Clip3
8 The H. H. Holmes Manifestos
If you are unfamiliar with this guy he is one of the most twisted brilliant serial killers
of all time. Like he was a horrible man but you have to give him a little credit in the
amount of work it put in just to kill people. I usually struggle to get off the couch when
the uber eats guy arrives. This dude built a massive hotel packed full of boobie traps,
dead ends, secret hatches and butcher cellar. People would come stay at this hotel, sleep
in a room, he would have secret vents for gas, kill the person with the gas, the have
a hatch in the floor to slide them down to the butcher cellar so he could dispose of
the body. This guy was like the Henry Ford Murder. But eventually in 1894, he was caught
and after this he wrote a bunch of letters about what he did and he wanted them published
in the paper. There were writings about his dark twisted fantasies and why he did what
he did but some people believe the secret message he wanted to send out was inspiration.
He wanted to inspire someone to continue there work, and I think thats where holiday in got
their business model. They kill you on the prices,
7 Alanta Inmates call a Hit
If your in prison you have to get creative with getting out information. All your letters
are read over, everything you do is watched and for good reason, your in prison. You didnt
get locked up in there because you were helping out the girl scouts. In Fulton atlanta some
inmates sent out a letter that at first glance seem to be normal.
Pic 1 Doesnt seem to crazy, just an update on how
live is going in the slammer, but someone managed to crack the secret code that was
hidden in this casual update. The actual message was this
Pic 2 It says put a team together and kill this
rat, the in has a name and address of one of the prison guards at the jail. Remind me
if this doesnt workout to never start up work as prison security. I dont need people wanted
to kill me all day.
6 Cracking the Code
This message was the personal diary of an inmate at the Tennessee state prison. Whenever
something like this is found its somewhat of an urgent situation to get the code cracked
and sent out the department. As you saw in number 7 you can never know what these messages
have locked away in them. This one was a lot less threatening but a much more interesting
cast to solve Pic 3
You can see that an inmate has made an entire code himself. This isnt linked to any other
scripture or secret gang code. This code was specifically designed so his journal would
stay a secret. What could be in here that is so important to him that he wasnts nobody
to find it. Well this is kind of anti climatic Pic4
Its really just a break down of his day in jail. It is interesting to see what the day
is like for a prisoner. Or maybe the code was cracked wrong and this inmate is one step
ahead of the codebreakers
5 Another hit
Even if youre inside the jail your not safe. As a kid I thought that everyone in jail would
be friends, because theyre all locked up together, theyre on the same team. I thought they would
see it as them against the guards. Oh how wrong I was, its all out gang warfare in there,
every man for himself. Slip up once and everyone is gonna try and poke holes in you like your
a pin cushion. Well this guy was trying to get word to someone in the prison about who
to take out next Pic 5
The letter is coded to have every fifth word be part of the actual message, when you break
it down theyre gonna kill a dude if he fails his drug test. Could you imagine having that
much riding on a pee test. Usually its a job but this time its weather or not your gonna
get stabbed.
4 Tap Code
Tap code is a secret way that prisoner can communicate with each other without having
to speak. Well it cant be that secret if I know about it. But its similar to morse code
has it uses a series of taps to spell out a word. Prisoners will constantly changed
to how many tap mean each letter so they always avoid detection from the guards. So gangs
inside prisons have their own unique tap code to they can communicate without the other
gangs knowing what theyre doing. Its incredible how resourceful people can become while living
in a prison. Your force to get creative in order to survive. Also your extremely bored
all the time so finding new tap codes might just be something you do to pass the time.
Its important for guard to stay up to date on these messages and always understand what
prisoners are trying to communicate to each other. You never know if your the next guy
on the hit list.
3 Folsom Prison secret notes
Folsom Prison started to have a problem with inmates sending messages to each other and
the guards couldnt figure out how they were doing it. The inmates started using a system
called Kites. Basically they were passing notes like kids do in grade school. They would
take small pieces of paper, fold them down, and then slip them into each others pockets
when they were working. They could only pass a few kites a day because they didnt want
to the guards to catch on. You dont want to get caught and then you have to read the note
in front of the class like, Tonight at 5pm we need to put a hit on T Money, that guy
is a lying rat and we need him dead. Now go back to your desk. Once the guards caught
on the inmates started using rogue Kites that had miss leading information in them. This
would confuse everyone so nobody ever knew what was true and what wasnt expect for the
two people exchanging the kites
2 French Fries
For our number two spot we have a story that is have funny half terrifying. Its about James
French, we was a murderer who was convicted and given life in prison in Oklahoma state
penitentiary. The Terrifying part about this is Jame French had the urge to die, life in
prison wasnt enough for him. So while his inmate was sleeping he killed him to up his
sentence. With this horrible act the State of Oklahoma up his sentence to death by the
Electric chair. This jail was going to be the final resting place for James French.
Now the funny part about this is the last message he sent out to the world. When on
the electric chair and given his last words he said this Hows this for a headline, french
fries. So he secretly picked his own headline. I wonder how long he was waiting to tell that
joke. That must have been sitting in his head the whole walk down. As soon as he sat down
he was probably like, this joke gon bang!
1 A letter from a Chinese Prisoner
This is an insane story and might make you change your shopping habits. Chirtal wallace
bought a purse from walmart, not the fashion forward choice but a girls gotta do what a
girls gotta do. This wasnt a regular purse though, it had a message in it that read like
this
Translated, it read: Inmates in China’s Yingshan Prison work 14 hours a day and are
not allowed to rest at noon. We have to work overtime until midnight. People are beaten
for not finishing their work. There’s no salt and oil in our meals. The boss pays 2,000
yuan every month for the prison to offer better food, but the food is all consumed by the
prison guards. Sick inmates have to pay for their own pills. Prisons in China cannot be
compared to prisons in the United States. Horse, cow, goat, pig, dog.
Some people think this could be a publicity stunt but other people are convinced that
walmart is getting all their goods made by chinese prisoners who are abused and have
terrible living conditions. Thats how they have those low low prices, slavery.
