As an Italian-American, I'm well aware that Pennisi is pronounced, "Pen-niss-eye", but holy fuckin' shit; can you imagine how shitty it'd be to go through life with the name Penis-Eye? I bet that's why the man could not stomach going and dealing with prison - he could not handle it. I don't care if you've got a 100 guys you eat with in the chow hall, Pennisi, Stand Up Guy (hypothetically speaking, of course) or not, was intimidated by the ribbing and ball busting he'd face from other inmates.

Poor punk motherfucker.
