The longest-serving man, Sammie Robinson, Jr., was in prison for over 40 years.

 He came to Angola at 17 when "discipline was enforced by hickory stick, ax handle, and leather strap."

Robinson's original sentence for r-p€ was VACATED, but he ended up with a life sentence for killing a prisoner who assaulted him.

Robinson defended himself from sexual assault and other violence.

He then went on to commit other violent acts, attacking a guard and stabbing another man, all of which were inevitable to him. "Robinson had no regrets. Said if he had done anything different, he would probably be dead. Adaptability is key to survival. He adapted to the jungle to which he was exiled, became part of it.

Early into his prison sentence, a third of Robinson's body was burned when a man attacked him with lighter fluid and flame. "A testament of agony," his body bears

"slash, stab and burn scars" and the psychic iniuries of living besieged by brutality.

In 2019, a judge ruled that Robinson had forfeited all of his appeals. Robinson died in 2020, still incarcerated.

He was 83 years old.
