KENNATH ARTEZ HENDERSON (B. 1974)
Riverbend Maximum Security Institution
Nashville, Tennessee

“Life is about choices. One choice can change a person’s life for the better or for the worse. Everything was good for me. I had good grades, a loving family, and I was a good basketball player. But I wanted to be loved and accepted. I met the wrong guys. I want to give a message to the youth: don’t mind about what others think about you. Don’t bend to peer pressure."

— Kennath Artez Henderson
