Andrew Tate Speaks Out From Prison: 'Cockroaches, Lice, and Bed Bugs Are My Only Friends'

Oh, how the mighty and rabidly misogynistic have fallen: In a newsletter to his supporters on Tuesday, Andrew Tate, who’s currently jailed in Romania facing human trafficking charges, claims he’s facing inhumane conditions in his jail cell, where he’ll remain through the end of this month and next.

“They are trying to break me. Thrown inside a cell without light. Cockroaches, lice, and bed bugs are my only friends at night,” Tate wrote. Seems… a touch dramatic for an alpha male like himself. But it truly must be very difficult for a proud misogynist influencer who once promised male followers he could teach them how to attract dozens of beautiful sex partners each night to now have only roaches and vermin for bedmates.c

Tate’s post, which almost appears written as a poem or haiku, continues: “They try to pour hatred into my heart. … They are trying to break my Iron Mind with unjust imprisonment.” But he emphasizes that his guards believe in him and are “just performing their job,” writing: “My guards know I am innocent. They know it is unjust. They see I will never break and respect my resolve,” he wrote. Sure, dude.

Tate’s claims about the jail’s conditions come weeks after he was reportedly briefly hospitalized whilst “suffering from certain ailments.”

Tate was arrested at the end of last month at his and his brother’s shared compound in Romania, where their alleged human trafficking business was headquartered. Romanian prosecutors say Tate is suspected of being part of a criminal group that lures women via false promises and sexually exploits them, subjecting them to “physical violence and mental coercion through intimidation, constant surveillance, control and invoking alleged debts,” and forcing them to make pornographic videos.

Oh dear, it almost seems like he's fallen in with his own kind at last. Bite, bugs, bite!

The vermin don’t like you either. They’re just using you. Kinda like the way you used other human beings.

They are not your friends just like those women were not your playthings.
Hope you die in prison
