Author Information

My name is Dustin Merryfield and I have been one of the most hated people in the world since becoming a sexually violent predator. I was committed in December of 2000 and have spent twenty-two years so far.My life was not easy, as a child I was put in state custody at the age of ten and still remain in state custody. My sex offence was committed when I was a juvenile and I served time in adult prison, as a juvenile, for it. I was just eighteen at the time of commitment under the KSVPA.One can say that I am well educated. I graduated high school at the age of sixteen and acquired many vo-tech degrees. Since that time, I have acquired a Bachelor's in Theology, a Paralegal Degree, Advanced Paralegal Degree in Business Law, and Diplomas in PC Repair and Accounting. I am seeking my business degree and criminal justice degree as well.I continue to grow and educate myself more to be prepared for society. My personal growth and change occurs every time I earn a degree or education and as I explore the financial world of investing. I have a bright future and will utilize it once I am released.
