About this listen
💥 “The crime I never committed is now etched into my record. The truth—my truth—remains unheard.”
In this powerful episode of Three Times A Victim, Bruce reflects on life after being coerced into a guilty plea. What follows is not healing—but exile. Branded by a false conviction, Bruce drifts through thirteen years of homelessness, toxic shame, and rejection.
🏚️ What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
✔️ Life after plea—where justice never came
✔️ The emotional weight of a criminal record for a crime not committed
✔️ Toxic shame and internalized isolation
✔️ Betrayal by Amanda and the collapse of trust
✔️ Brief moments of hope: a kind mental health worker, a glimpse of connection
✔️ The question that lingers: What does it mean to live a life branded by lies?
Even in this silence, Bruce’s voice begins to rise again—not in rage, but in resilient truth.
