Lane Garrison - Letter From Jail
February 15, 2008 by Nikki Katz
Former Prison Break actor, Lane Garrison, whose drunk driving car crash resulted in the death of a teenager, wrote this letter to Access Hollywood about his time behind bars.
He says:
“Greetings and Happy New Year to you and everyone at Access Hollywood from Donovan State Prison. Never did I think I would be saying the words ‘happy & prison’ in the same sentence and not be on a set. It’s pure irony coming from the show and now living the real deal. It’s surreal and mind-blowing to say the least.
Just this past Monday they let a group of inmates watch the season premiere of Prison Break. It felt like an out of body experience as I stood around a crowd of tattooed felons watching Michael Scofield try to escape … all of us longing to be free as well!
This has been the hardest year of my life. I hope people, young and old, are learning from my mistakes and what can happen when you drink and drive. I have much to say about the pain I’ve felt and seen inside of prison. It has been eye-opening and a harrowing experience.”

He takes his sentence like a man. I like that… It’s not like Paris Hilton who said it was life changing but you knew she wasn’t telling the truth. I have a lot of respect for this letter
He went in crying, and now he is used to the punishment.
At least he is able to joke about it while he is still IN the prison!
Although he was not a favourite character in PB, he was a VERY good actor.
And yes, he deserves his sentence, but I do hope him well.
He does deserve the respect for admitting to his crimes. And he is taking it very well.
joke !!! whats there to joke about a teenager loosing her life i hope he gets what he deservs a good beating off the other kons
oh and takeing it like a man he wasnt crying 4 the girl or her poor family he was crying because he was scared and hes probably payin money 4 top boys in there to look after him so he dont get a beating
