The True Story They Tried to Erase
By LeRoy Nellis II
In 2019, over fifty armed officers from SWAT, the U.S. Marshals Service, and the FBI descended on my home in Round Rock, Texas.
Helicopters shook the roof. Snipers lined the cul-de-sac. The neighbors thought they were watching a terrorist takedown.
There was no conviction. No violence. No crime proven.
That raid marked the beginning of a six-year campaign of coordinated persecution — fueled by false accusations, political connections, and an ex-wife, a non-U.S. citizen, who learned to weaponize the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office as her personal enforcement arm.
Every charge, every “coincidental” re-arrest, every court delay was part of the same machinery — a county system built on dual-sovereign contracts, unlicensed medicine, and psychological warfare disguised as procedure.
THE MEDICINE OF MADNESS
Inside the Williamson County Jail, I learned what happens when medicine becomes an instrument of control.
Men in uniforms marked “EMS” and “Medic” injected substances without explanation.
When I demanded credentials, they laughed. They weren’t licensed EMTs. They were jail staff wearing fake EMT patches, posing as medical professionals in a facility with no full-time doctor and no 24-hour psychiatric coverage.
The man who claimed to be the supervising physician introduced himself as Dr. Alan Brooks — clipboard in hand, white coat, the confidence of authority.
He signed prescriptions, performed exams, and ordered injections.
But the Texas Medical Board had no record of him.
He wasn’t a doctor. He wasn’t licensed anywhere in the United States.
Yet Williamson County allowed him to diagnose, prescribe, and inject inmates for months.
On paper, the County’s “psychiatrist” was Dr. Ghulam M. Khan, listed on a Professional Services Agreement renewed through 2025.
His role was to prescribe psychotropic medication and oversee inmate mental health.
But like everything else in Williamson County, the truth was buried in the fine print:
Khan’s contract required only 16 to 20 hours of coverage per week — for over 600 inmates.
He rarely appeared in person, if ever.
When I finally saw him, the consultation lasted five minutes, and he never looked up from the paper.
My prescriptions bore his signature, yet he never once checked my vitals, reviewed labs, or confirmed a diagnosis.
Whether through neglect or deliberate fraud, psychiatric care in Williamson County was being practiced without medical oversight.
THE ECONOMY OF TORTURE
The rest of the week, the jail ran on unlicensed medics, correctional officers with EMS patches, and nurse practitioners making decisions far beyond their legal authority.
They injected diabetics with the wrong insulin, handed out psychotropics without follow-up, and delayed emergency transports until it was too late.
When inmates collapsed, it wasn’t an incident — it was an accepted expense.
I was strapped into a restraint chair for refusing to surrender a Bible, left under blinding lights for hours while they called it “policy.”
I spent 326 days in solitary confinement, light burning 24 hours a day, my nerves deteriorating until blindness crept into my right eye.
Every medical request I filed was marked unsubstantiated.
Every grievance disappeared into the bureaucratic abyss of “within policy.”
By the time I left, I was blind, disabled, and living proof that cruelty can be automated through paperwork.
THE SYSTEM BEHIND THE SCARS
Williamson County, TX: Corruption Exposed documents, for the first time, how an entire county used unlicensed medicine, falsified titles, and intergovernmental contracts to turn its jail into a laboratory of neglect.
It reveals how the Texas Commission on Jail Standards, the County Attorney’s Office, and federal oversight agencies all looked the other way — because each was contractually insulated by dual-sovereign loopholes that made accountability vanish.
Behind every signature lies a human cost:
psychosis from wrong medication, seizures from withheld treatment, suicides mislabeled as “policy incidents.”
This isn’t mismanagement.
It’s a design of cruelty — written into budgets, hidden in contracts, and executed by people who were never qualified to hold a syringe.
“The law stops at the booking desk, and medicine becomes punishment.”
— LeRoy Nellis II
This is not a memoir for pity.
It’s an indictment.
A six-year exposé of corruption, cover-ups, and unlicensed medical practice in one of America’s wealthiest counties — a place where law enforcement turned medicine into torture and justice into theater.
If you’ve ever wondered how the United States created a domestic black site system without public awareness,
this is your proof.
This is the story they tried to bury — and the evidence they can’t erase.

Inside IGSA: How Intergovernmental Service Agreements Built America’s Shadow Detention Empire Kindle Edition
by LeRoy Nellis (Author)
What if the real prison system isn’t private at all—but intergovernmental?
Every day, behind the glass walls of local jails and county courthouses, a hidden machinery of contracts, cost sheets, and cross-badged officers operates quietly in plain sight. It’s called the Intergovernmental Service Agreement (IGSA)—and it’s the financial backbone of America’s most expansive, least understood detention empire.
In Inside IGSA, investigative author LeRoy Nellis exposes how these obscure contracts transformed the foundation of American federalism. What began as cooperative agreements between federal and local governments evolved into a self-replicating system of profit, power, and control. Counties lease their jails to Washington. Sheriffs become de facto federal agents. ICE and the U.S. Marshals Service outsource incarceration through “per-diem” bed rentals, blurring the line between justice and business.
Through meticulous research and first-hand documentation, Inside IGSA reveals how this shadow network quietly merged local and federal power—creating what Nellis calls “the Detention-Industrial Complex.” From Texas to Louisiana, from county commissioners’ meetings to the halls of the Department of Justice, Nellis follows the money, the incentives, and the constitutional compromises that make it all possible.
Inside these pages, you’ll discover:
- How IGSA contracts turned sheriffs into federal landlords and counties into profit centers.
- Why the doctrine of dual sovereignty allows two governments to prosecute—and incarcerate—the same citizen.
- The fiscal mechanics of U.S. Marshals’ per-diem bed rates, ICE Non-Dedicated Facility contracts, and DoD intergovernmental support deals.
- The accountability void that lets civil rights violations disappear between jurisdictions.
- How IGSA economics incentivize overcapacity, guaranteed minimums, and extended detention.
Inside IGSA dismantles the myth that privatization alone drives mass incarceration. The truth is far more systemic—and far more intergovernmental. Behind every private contractor stands a public signature, a shared ledger, and a cooperative clause buried deep in a federal-county contract.
This is the story of how America’s federalist dream—divided power, local autonomy, and checks and balances—quietly morphed into a web of dependence and control. It’s a story of how government learned to subcontract sovereignty itself.
With journalistic precision and legal depth, Nellis maps the unseen architecture connecting Washington, state capitals, and rural county jails into one sprawling intergovernmental detention grid. His findings reveal not just a hidden bureaucracy, but an entirely new layer of governance—one that operates beyond the reach of ordinary citizens, watchdogs, and even courts.
In a republic built on transparency, Inside IGSA asks the question few dare to confront:
Who really owns America’s justice system—and who’s renting it out?
Torture to Conviction: How Pre-Trial Detention Became America’s Hidden System of Psychological Torture
In a nation that calls itself free, thousands are broken before they’re ever convicted. Torture to Conviction exposes the hidden machinery inside America’s jails—where isolation, coercion, and despair replace due process. Drawing on first-hand accounts, investigative research, and whistleblower testimony, this book unearths how pre-trial detention quietly evolved into a system of psychological pressure designed to force pleas, crush resistance, and manufacture compliance.
Part exposé, part human story, Torture to Conviction pulls back the curtain on a justice system that weaponizes time, silence, and fear long before a trial ever begins. It’s a gripping, urgent call for transparency, reform, and the restoration of basic humanity within the walls meant only to hold—not to destroy.

by LeRoy Nellis
In today’s world, your mind is under siege. Every ping, every scroll, every sleepless night chained to a glowing screen is not random—it’s engineered.

– Digital Red Flags — Subtle warning signs of dependence—irritability, compulsive checking, doomscrolling—that reveal when tech is using you.
– The Action Plan — Proven steps for detoxing your digital life: sleep resets, digital sunsets, dopamine fasts, curated feeds, and the HEAL method for building positive neuroplasticity.
– A Path Forward — How to design a personalized tech plan that fosters resilience, mindful self-regulation, and healthier habits for the long haul.
Unlike books that simply scold you to “use less tech,” STOP gives you a playbook. Each chapter fuses real-world stories—from students and parents to professionals and creators—with neuroscience-backed tools that are practical, flexible, and sustainable.
This is not about abandoning technology. It’s about reclaiming sovereignty over your own mind.

The Seduction Algorithm: From First Contact to Complete Control Kindle Edition
by LeRoy Nellis (Author)
Step into the electric pulse of The Seduction Algorithm by LeRoy Nellis, a no-bullshit manifesto that rips the veil off attraction, revealing it for what it is: not chaos, but a high-stakes game of math, physics, and psychology. Forget the tired clichés of pickup lines or praying for a lucky break—this book is a masterclass in engineering desire, forged in the neon-lit crucible of Austin’s wildest nights and battle-tested across North America, from the star-studded rooftops of Hollywood to the velvet-roped lounges of Manhattan. LeRoy Nellis, the titan behind Nellis Investments, has cracked the code, turning fleeting glances into epic sagas with celebrities, billionaires’ daughters, and randoms in every corner of the continent—from dive bars to private jets.
This isn’t a collection of cheap tricks or canned openers that crash and burn. The Seduction Algorithm (TSA) is a full-stack system—observation, calibration, execution—designed to make you the house in a game where everyone else is gambling. Nellis’s frameworks, honed on West Sixth’s buzzing patios, SoCo’s laid-back lounges, The Domain’s sleek rooftops, and Mozart’s Coffee on the lake, are universal, working just as flawlessly in Miami’s clubs or Toronto’s cafés. Every chapter is a raw, cinematic field log—real stories of how LeRoy mapped stacks, neutralized blockers, and spun callbacks into multi-day legends. You’ll get drills and sticky lines you can deploy tonight, whether you’re facing a skeptical heiress or a barista with a quick smile.
LeRoy’s systems are so tight he made a game of it: his crew would pick any woman in the room—actress, mogul’s daughter, or random—and if he couldn’t close by week’s end, drinks were on him. Spoiler: he rarely paid. But this power comes with a warning: it’s like a shot of mezcal—one wrong move, and it burns. TSA embeds ethics at its core—consent, respect, and calibration are non-negotiable. Seduction without integrity is poison, and LeRoy’s not selling venom.
By the final page, you’ll see social interactions like a chessboard, spotting green lights, yellow stalls, and red brakes before they hit. You’ll turn chaos into a script, nights into laboratories, and your life into a legacy. From Chuy’s Tex-Mex booths to The Oasis’s sunset cliffs, The Seduction Algorithm isn’t about being smooth—it’s about being unstoppable.
FcuKU I’m Winning: The Hustler’s Playbook for Beating a Rigged
by LeRoy Nellis (Author)
LeRoy Nellis is an author, entrepreneur, and hustler who refuses to play by the rules of a rigged game. His life has taken him from the fast streets of Austin to the high-stakes chaos of Vegas, through boardrooms, back alleys, and even the darkest corners of the justice system. At every step, he’s learned one truth: if you want to win, you have to outthink, outlast, and outmaneuver the very system designed to break you.
In his breakout book FcukU I’m Winning: The Hustler’s Playbook for Beating a Rigged System, Nellis blends raw memoir with hard-hitting tactics. The result is part confession, part manual, and part war cry — showing readers not just what he lived, but how those lessons can be turned into strategies for survival and dominance in any arena. His voice is cinematic, Rated-R, and unapologetically real. Every chapter feels like a movie scene, with the psychology of persuasion and the laws of influence woven into lived, unforgettable stories.
Nellis’s style has been described as Jordan Belfort’s hustler swagger colliding with Robert Greene’s psychological depth. But he’s not an imitator. His books are lived proof — lived on the street, in the deal, and under pressure. He writes the way he talks: raw, magnetic, and unfiltered.
Beyond the page, Nellis is constantly building — companies, projects, and visions. His work in business, tech, and persuasion has given him a sharp edge in recognizing how people think, what motivates them, and how power moves beneath the surface. He speaks with the authority of someone who has made bets, lost big, come back, and found ways to flip disadvantage into leverage.
His mission is simple: to expose how the game is really played, and to hand readers the tools to beat it. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a sales pro, or just someone who feels the deck has been stacked against you, his work delivers the strategies and the mindset to carve your own win.
When he isn’t writing or speaking, you can find Nellis on the water, behind the wheel, or in the middle of a project that looks impossible until it’s finished. To him, the grind never stops, the system is never fair, and the only answer is to play harder, smarter, and with the unshakable conviction that losing is never an option.
ur attention. Restore your sleep. Reclaim your mind.
