Convicted, after her high profile trial as a Hollywood Madam, this book is a psychological journey of the heart and mind, written with gut wrenching detail by former Hollywood Madam Jody Babydol Gibson, as she takes you through her journey in the most severe maximum security state penitentiary in the state of California, Central California Womens Facility, otherwise known as 'Chowchilla' aka 'Chowkilla'. A True Story, it is a blueprint of how an upper middle-class, girl from a privileged entertainment family, educated in private school from Westchester County, New York, navigated her way mercilessly, through the most severe maximum security state prison system in California, that houses the only Death Row for women in the state. Unlike her first book 'Secrets of a Hollywood Super Madam' (amazon), this book is a follow up, and took ten years to write. No A-List names or celebrity stories. It's terrifying, violent, severe, you will not be able to put this book down. Completely ill prepared for such a challenging journey, Ms. Gibson takes you on a roller coaster ride through Hell. You are privy to thoughts from the moment she opened her eyes, until the moment she went to sleep. Inmates like Slick, Devious, and Scrappy, show you what it was like for her to be 'descended upon' like a 'target', having come in from a high-profile Hollywood criminal case about money, celebrities, and sex. Chapter 6: THE ROOM, is so compelling you thought this could happen only in the movies. With lesbians, psychos, murderers, and everything else you ever heard, or had nightmares about. Chapter 4; A-YARD, read how the psycho abusive prison gynecologist, rams his fist up your Vagina while his whacko wife watches. Read about the hot Latina Lifer, and her forte in Lesbian sex. In Chapter 21; ADSEG; WELCOME to SOLITARY, Jody terrifies us as to what it feels like to be in solitary confinement, placed in a human cage, as some twisted form of prison protection from being jumped and assaulted by other inmates. And amusing stories like smuggling in her desperately needed contact lenses, in her sister's under wire bra. However, through it all this book is a story about survival; a tale of finding an inner strength, while overcoming adversity. She shows you how she tried desperately to hang on to herself, and remember that she really had a values-based, goal-oriented life; hard to do while living inside a culture designed to extinguish hope. CONVICTED will show you that no matter how impossible the situation may seem, no matter how dark a moment you are in, with your will you can survive it. Jody Babydol Gibson is living proof that you can...
