Welcome to Raw Reflections
This is where the commentary gets sharp, the writing gets bold, and nothing is off-limits. Raw Reflections is more than a blog—it’s an ongoing conversation about law, identity, culture, power, and the personal truths we’re told to keep quiet.
Here, I unpack courtroom drama, critique pop culture, analyze the systems meant to protect us (but often don’t), and write through the chaos of being alive in a world that demands silence from the loudest hearts. From legal education to emotional storytelling, every post is crafted with clarity, depth, and purpose.
If you’re here for truth, for context, for the unfiltered version of what really matters—then you’re in the right place.
What’s the Difference Between Jail and Prison?
Jail and prison aren’t interchangeable—and for people like me, the difference hits close to home. My father spent years in and out of jail, never fully held accountable for the harm he caused. Understanding how the system works—and where it fails—is what fuels my passion for justice and my dream of becoming a prosecutor. This post breaks down the real distinctions between jail and prison, the myths people believe, and why it matters more than most realize.
