#1 Single Rehabilitated Federal Prisoner – Read Bio Before Contacting Me Hello from the hot, sometimes cloudy and windy (but also kind of fenced-in) terrain of Marion, Illinois. Even though I’m merely two hours from St. Louis, Nashville, and the Kentucky border, somehow I can still feel the Chicago wind. Please don’t let the distance discourage you. I’m a firm believer that “strangers are just friends who haven’t had the chance to meet yet.” wink My name is Taurean, but my close friends call me Rich. I’m the ultimate blend of Cape Verdean spice and Texas charm, and they tell me it’s quite a nice combo. wink, smile I’m a young-spirited but mature 37-year-old with light honey-brown eyes. I originally hail from the land of cowboys and big hats: yep, Dallas, Texas. Unfortunately, for the last fourteen years I’ve been forced to temporarily trade my spurs and boots for flip-flops and prison clothing. But I must say my time here has been far from idle. I love working out and eating healthy, but when I’m not flexing my muscles, I’m flexing my imagination. I’m an avid reader and writer. I’ve written 11 book manuscripts and 7 true crime podcasts. Before prison, I owned and operated an adult entertainment management and multimedia company, which I eventually came to regret. Over nearly 14 years of incarceration, I’ve fully rehabilitated from criminally inclined ways of thinking. I obtained an associate’s degree in business administration through Rio Salado College and a paralegal studies certification through Blackstone Career Institute, and I currently attend Stratford Career Institute to study social media strategy. I’m also well versed in credit repair and building personal and business credit. At the end of the day, I just want another chance at getting out of prison and being successful again, legitimately. Before my grandmother passed away on 6/1/2026, I made a vow to get out of prison and never come back. I’ve made my time in here count for something. I love to go boating, and I love to kick up dirt on a dirt bike or ATV (don’t worry, I promise not to get any dirt in your hair). wink I eagerly seek to form a friendship with one authentic person. Having been incarcerated for so long, I’ve lost a lot of friends and family. However, I’ve matured and learned, and I’m ready to explore the beauty of a possible friendship with someone supportive, nonjudgmental, caring, and honest. A believer in second chances is a must. Someone who values deep conversations, exchanging ideas, and self-improvement. Maturity is a must. Warning: I have big dreams. Well, it’s time for me to go work out, and then it’s off to do some homework. I’ll be waiting for you.
