Luigi is going to be a very successful celebrity when he gets out of prison. I know I’ll be sending him a few dollars once he gets out and starts a patreon.
Oh, I’m outside the US so I’m sure giving money to a US prison for his account would be needlessly convoluted, not to mention My ethical issues with paying a prison. I’ll wait until he’s free so he can spend every dollar I give him on whatever he wants, at the same prices free people pay.
They have a really good point, and it’s super clear neither of you have been to prison. Money in commissary at one place not following when you get transferred and money staying with the prison when you get released are both real problems. More than ~$1k on your books really isn’t an advantage, can’t buy much past snacks/hygiene/sometimes very limited entertainment stuff anyways. Withholding entirely until he’s out is pretty lame though, being able to buy a toothbrush and a tiny bag of chips for $25 is the least he deserves. I’ve never dealt with someone famous being locked up, but usually you try to get money to someone outside they trust who can pay lawyers/put it on books as needed

He’s pretty successful now and you are welcome to add to his legal fund or his comissionary in jail.

I just think you don’t care enough.
Words are cheap without action.
UK here, happily gave money to the fund (don’t care about the taxes)
