Wasted Time (eBook)

A stark and honest memoir of thirty-five years spent in Canadas prison system.

Born and raised in Torontos Regent Park, Edward Hertrich left high school in grade 11 to start working. A year later, he started dealing drugs in earnest, beginning a criminal career that resulted in him being incarcerated for thirty-five of his next forty years.

InWasted Time, Hertrich describes his time behind bars. Once considered a serious threat to public safety, he spent much of his time at Millhaven Institution, a maximum-security prison that housed four hundred of Canadas most dangerous inmates, including murderers, bank robbers, and gang members, and for most of his stay there a gang of sadistic guards.
