Recently talking with The Urban Daily, Boosie talked about the difficulty of being a dad and incarcerated at the same time. The only thing he says he felt he could do was reassure his children he would be free one day.
“When I was on death row fighting my cases all I could say was, ‘Daddy is coming’ home,” he said. “It was a struggle.”
The Baton Rouge native also talked about spending time with his kids and feels its safe enough for them to be in his hometown.
