In this riveting episode, Jesse shares his tumultuous journey from incarceration to recovery. With multiple stints in prison and unsuccessful treatments, he found himself at the crossroads of life when his brother faced a life-threatening accident. Forced to confront the reality of his choices, Jesse took the difficult path towards self-improvement, personal growth, and healing. Now a recovery coach at Teen Challenge, he offers an unflinching look at the struggles and triumphs of fighting addiction. This episode delves into the power of community, the significance of accountability, and the profound impact of genuine transformation.

70% of incarcerated women are suffering from terrible trauma. In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we sat down with Elizabeth Mikotowicz to talk about her story of abuse and trauma that led to her incarceration. While in prison, she was mistreated and abused by many people in power. Elizabeth is now acting as a force for change to stop the abuse happening to women in prison. Elizabeth has come a long way on her healing journey, and in this episode, she shares her experiences with art as therapy, binaural beats, ASMR, meditation, and self-care in order to recover from the trauma. Five years ago, Elizabeth Mikotowicz was painting murals as a federal inmate, now she has her own art shows and has launched an environmentally friendly clothing brand called EPM which is based on her art. While in prison, she both endured and witnessed institutional abuse, corruption, systemic racism, and cruelty; so much so that sometimes she still wakes up screaming. These days she's turned it all around! She has gotten legislative bills put on the table and passed for the good of the people - not corporations and institutions. Elizabeth is letting the world know what America is doing to its incarcerated population which is the highest rate in the world. She is currently in the editing stages of her memoir and is also creating an adult coloring book based on PTSD and what she learned from her own trauma.  In today's episode, we cover: The corruption in the prison systemThe impact prison has on women with PTSDThe mistreatment and trauma Elizabeth experienced in the prison systemHow Elizabeth was able to move into a place of strength after the trauma of prisonHow she realized that she deserved to take care of herselfSome tools that help with PTSD and trauma healingThe healing power of artThe power we all have to rewire our brainsWe hope you enjoyed our conversation with Elizabeth!

Have you heard of the Briley Brothers? Three young brothers, and a teenage neighbor, went on a vicious murder, robbery, and rape spree in Richmond, Virginia in 1979. And then two of the brothers later planned a historic death row prison escape.  Today's episode really again asks the question, "Are some people just born evil?" It sure seems ago with at least Linwood Briley. A wild story that I'm surprised isn't more commonly known. CLICK HERE TO WATCH MY NEW SPECIAL ON YOUTUBE!

What is the purpose of prison?  Most people think the very fact of being removed from society, loved ones, and life in general, is the punishment.  But that's only the beginning.  Once you get inside the walls of the BOP, the real punishment begins. Intentionally or not, those in charge of BOP facilities make the time a client spends inside exponentially more punitive by exposing them to daily indignities, deprivations, and unfathomable risks to their physical and mental well-being.   Judges need to understand the truth about the dysfunction and chaos inside the walls of the BOP and consider alternatives to incarceration, particularly when it comes to non-violent, first time offenders.  Helping us get set for sentencing, our 2nd conversationwith Bilal Khan. He's a current inmate in the federal BOP and he is not afraid to speak his truth about what life is like on the inside.     IN THIS EPISODE:   Deprivation, indifference, even DEATH inside the walls of the federal BOP; Understaffing and Staff morale; Lack of accountability for staff and inmates; Safety and security issues, violence, sexual assaults; Contraband inside the walls of Ft. Dix; The myth of the “country club” environment of minimum security satellite camp facilities; The importance of filing administrative remedies and making a record; The importance of making sure all pertinent information goes into your client's Pre-Sentence Report; The importance of reaching out to your representatives (House and Senate) to demand action. LINKS: Don't take the inmate's word for how bad things are inside the walls of the BOP.  Check out this recent episode we did with former BOP officials who confirm virtually every claim made by Mr. Khan:  BOP stands for Big Ol' Problems, With Maureen Baird, Janet Perdue and Walt Pavlo at prisonology:   https://setforsentencing.com/podcast/bop-stands-for-big-ol-problems-exposing-dysfunction-danger-at-the-federal-bureau-of-prisons/   Also, this is Mr. Khan's 2nd appearance on Set for Sentencing.  He recently authored the Book "Surviving Pretrial", available now on Amazon.  Here's the link to our last conversation, and a link to purchase his book: https://setforsentencing.com/podcast/surviving-pretrial-vol-1-is-my-lawyer-any-good/   SURVIVING PRETRIAL, by BILAL KHAN, ON AMAZON:  https://a.co/d/9ZhE9h5   By total coincidence, this compelling and comprehensive NPR article came out right before this podcast episode dropped - it documents the high rate of DEATHS in the federal BOP due to failure to render prompt medical care, short staffing, and other issues:   https://www.npr.org/2023/09/23/1200626103/federal-prison-deaths-butner-medical-center-sick-inmates     

TV and movie writers have reached a tentative deal with Hollywood studios that could soon end a nearly five-month strike. Union members still have to ratify the deal. Other negotiations, however, aren't go so well. In Washington, a deal to keep the government open beyond the end of this month appears less and less likely. How would a government shutdown affect the U.S. economy? And what's happening inside a North Carolina federal prison?

Prison reform is a truly noble cause because there is no political constituency demanding it. Every time I fly into LaGuardia, I look out at the hellhole of Rikers Island, a prison right out of Dickens's England, where men languish who are unable to make bail and life is brutal, and the Democratic hacks of New York won't touch this issue lest they be thought weak on crime. Emily knew all about this, and she nodded.And if you take on prison reform, then you need to reform our broken mental health system that was destroyed by my fellow liberals forty years ago as “deinstitutionalization,” the idea that rather than enormous hellholes, you put the inmates in small hellholes where we wouldn't be so aware of them. Emily knows about this too. And whatever progress you make will be painfully slow: nobody will come up with an algorithm to produce social justice.Garrison KeillorJason Keillor, EngineerJason Keillor, Original Music This is a public episode.

Have you ever been laying in your bed and you can't telling whether or not you are dreaming or just envisioning things? In Acts 12, Peter 100% thought he was having a vision, until he quickly realized that he became “Prison-break Pete” as he was led out of the prison cell. Peter was being taken out of shackles in order to free others of theirs. In this Actstensions we see that through this great escape, it became yet another gateway to the advancement of the Gospel.

The San Quentin Prison Marathon has an unconventional route: 105 dizzying laps around a crowded prison yard. Director Christine Yoo deeply empathetic documentary, 26.2 TO LIFE, tells the story of incarcerated men who are members of the 1000 Mile Club, the prison's long distance running club. They train all year for 26.2 mile long marathon race, all of which takes place inside the walls of the infamous San Quentin Men's Prison mile race. For the men who take their places at the starting line on a cool, sunny November morning, completing the marathon means more than entrée into an elite group of athletes. It's a chance to be defined by more than their crimes. Cheering them on are a small staff of volunteer coaches, veteran marathoners who train with the runners throughout the year. The bonds they forge on the track create a community that transcends prison politics and extends beyond the prison walls as members are released. 26.2 TO LIFE is a story of transformation and second chances. The film offers a rare glimpse into a world out of bounds, as the men navigating life sentences seek redemption and freedom… or something like it. Director Christine Yoo takes us inside the walls, physical and psychological of the men, who readily acknowledge the mistakes and crimes they have committed, work to define the remainder of their lives as positive and worthwhile.

Janie Paul is a painter, curator, and writer. She is the senior curator and co-founder, with her late husband Buzz Alexander, of the Exhibitions of Artists in Michigan Prisons, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP). She is Arthur F. Thurnau professoremerita at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan where she has won many awards for her art and social justice work with incarcerated people and children experiencing poverty. She lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Making Art in Prison reveals—through the eyes of the artists who have lived through it—what mass incarceration looks and feels like in the United States. It reveals the ways in which they keep their humanity intact; it invites us to reflect on our own humanity and the problem of living in a country that incarcerates more of its population than any other nation in the world. It also invites us to look closely at the images and appreciate the richness of life and luminosity emerging from the darkest corner of our country.

durée : 00:06:22 - La Revue de presse internationale - par : Catherine Duthu - Onze mille soldats et policiers ont repris le contrôle de la plus célèbre prison du Venezuela, Tocorón (centre nord) qui était entièrement contrôlée par le gang du Tren de Aragua, qui a étendu ses tentacules du Venezuela à huit autres pays d'Amérique latine.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 40: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump has descended into full-fledged panic over the Possible Gag Order and either he is exaggerating for effect – what a shock – or, more likely, his lawyers, preparing an answer to Jack Smith's request to Judge Chutkan that is due Monday, told him SOMETHING that set his hair on fire and you know the dangers of combustion when spray paint is mixed with open flames. And that imagery is more than a joke about his bottle blondness. It is a forecast of things to come. We are headed to a legal crisis over Trump's social media posts and his refusal to accede to the rule of law and I don't know where this ends but at the far end of political science fiction, where it ends is a shootout between United States Marshals and United States Secret Service. His bail – his NOT being held in a jail cell in the District of Columbia until trial starts – is dependent on him NOT defying the law. As I said last week, at some point, whatever limitations Chutkan imposes upon him, WHEN he violates them, whether it's the first time or the fiftieth – he is NOT going to surrender. He is not going to let them put him in prison. They are going to have to go and get him. And what happens THEN? It seems madness to risk the lives of Marshals or Secret Service to protect this semi-sentient pile of feces. But, what? You're going to have the Secret Service agents protecting him turn around an arrest him? Biden is going to order the head of the Secret Service to order his men to stand down when the Marshals arrive? Trump is going to see the photo-shoot-value in an actual perp walk? I'm not counting on the last one. Rolling Stone now reports that as you'd expect, the I-don't-think-about-jail crap he gave to the gullible Kristen Welker in last Sunday's stenography class is nonsense. Quoting: “In the past several months, Donald Trump has had a burning question for some of his confidants and attorneys: Would the authorities make him wear, quote, “one of those jumpsuits” in prison?... Three sources familiar with his comments say he's been aking lawyers and other people close to him what a prison sentence would look like for a former American president. Would he be sent to a ‘club fed' style prison… or a bad prison? Would he serve out a sentence in a plush home confinement?... those who've heard him ask these questions about a hypothetical sentencing tell Rolling Stone that it's clear the gravity of his mounting legal peril is GETTING to Trump." As an aside, I understand Jann Wenner is asking the same questions. Also: Cassidy Hutchinson's book includes a sexual assault accusation against Rudy Giuliani. It's the worst sexual misconduct accusation against him in nearly four months. Also Lin Wood flips on the entire Trump crowd. And a tweet from Junior Trump announces his father had died. He was hacked. We think.
