My name is Fred Singleton, I'm a 44 year native of Washington D.C., I've currently been incarcerated for 20 years, for armored truck robbery and gun offenses. Over the years of my incarceration, I've acquired somewhat of a passion for critiquing movies and television show, you might say I'm what convicts deem "The jails house critic." That being so, one of the editors of Convict Soap Box saw this as an talent and has requested that I write a ratings column for the Entertainment section of CSB. Now when the idea was first presented to me. I wasn't quite sure if this was something I wanted to get involved with., I'm not going to lie, I couldn't see his vision for what it was, but after reading the edited version of my first column. I am now inspired to do this to the best of ability. Finally my passion for cinema now has a purpose. I'm looking forward to providing my perspective about the pro's and cons of what television and the silver screen has to offer. From the latest and greatest television series all the way down to throw back classic's you can download or pick up on DVD.
In closing, I'm glad to be a part of this movement, and I pray the world support's it.
