Con Man: The Making of a Monster

Prison is no Place to Come of Age On the streets of Lexington, Kentucky, Rick Smith finds himself homeless and without family. Being poor white trash, with little education and no job skills, he quickly turns to crime to survive. Not even five months into eighteen years old though, Rick gets arrested for robbery and assault. With no real legal representation and no clue how the system works, Rick takes a ten year sentence. He finds himself thrown into a world of gang violence, rapes, murders, and dirty officers. In a world where sharks eat sharks, Rick has no time to put it all together. He hopes he can con his way through but when a con goes bad, and a riot ensues, he realizes he’s in over his head with nowhere to turn.
