Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    Do you remember Bob Hayes, the man who was named "World's Fastest Human"? He was a hero of 1964 Olympics, bringing home the Gold Medal in the 100 meter run, and being clocked at incredible 8.5 seconds in the final 110 yards of 400 meter relay run. After the Olympics, he became an all-pro wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys. His college coach said that if there had ever been a kid he wished was his, it was Bob Hayes. Then, in April 1979 Bob was convicted of selling narcotics to an undercover agent. He received two 5-year prison sentences. He went from the pinnacle of success to prison. Then terrible health issues due to drug abuse and the wrong lifestyle. According to Hayes, and those who cared most about him, his downfall was caused by his inability to choose the right circle.     1 Corinthians 15:33: "'Bad company corrupts good character'”. Company - not just friend, but group of friends- your circle Mark 2 2 Jesus returned to Capernaum, and a few days later the news went out that He was at home. 2 So many people gathered together that there was no longer room [for them], not even near the door; and Jesus was discussing with them the word [of God]. 3 Then they came, bringing to Him a paralyzed man, who was being carried by four men. 4 When they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above Jesus; and when they had dug out an opening, they let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying. 5 When Jesus saw their faith      **Thats the whole sermon right there!! Let me see your friends faith - That will tell me everything I need to know!        ITS NOT ABOUT THE CHOICES YOU MAKE… ITS ABOUT THE CIRCLE YOU MAKE!    You don't need the right friends you need the right circle. You can't choose your family - but you can choose your circle. You can't always choose your classmates, coworkers, neighbors or those who share your pew at church -  but you can always choose your *circle of influence*. AND YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL BECAUSE WITHOUT KNOWING…     **I was training a young man in my gym. He came in one day all concerned. He said he thinks he has a skin disease… something is really wrong with his hands. - They were callouses. But it happened so slow he did not realize it. The work of our circle is slow at first… but in time it becomes who we are.

There are plenty of rags to riches stories, that while I honor greatly, don't specifically stand out to me. But this one…this one did. Andre Norman wasn't just in prison. And maximum security prison at that. He ran the prison. He was king of the inmates and ran gang activities from within the prison walls. He was granted immunity from most all the rules and regulations by the guards. Then on his way to yet another of 10+ attempted murders, he got a wake up call and realized he was king. King of…nothing. Thus began his journey to educate himself, work out of a 100+ year prison sentence, and become an acclaimed motivational speaker on hope. That is a dramatic life transformation to me. An incredible identity shift. And I wanted to understand the dynamics of his experience. Most of my guests are authors, but I seldom read the books completely. Andre's book, Ambassador Of Hope: Turning Poverty And Prison Into A Purpose Driven Life, I read cover to cover. His childhood story…I just broke my heart with. He went from prison king to Harvard. Literally. But even amongst the success he pursued, he still struggled. I dig into his story and he brought me to a discussion on the salvation he cites of accountability. And our propensity as humans to get involved in a pursuit out of a strong why, but then lose it to the what of what we are doing. And get lost, or as he did, come back to the why. I think you'll find this discussion convicting and sobering, as I did.

Sean “Diddy” Combs is only weeks into his federal sentence, and the cracks are already showing. In this Hidden Killers deep dive, Tony Brueski breaks down what's really happening behind the walls at FCI Fort Dix — and why Diddy's earliest prison violations may be the warning signs of a much larger unraveling ahead. Reports confirm his projected release date has already been pushed back after alleged rule violations inside the facility, including an unauthorized three-way phone call and possession of contraband. For most inmates, these would be serious but survivable errors. For someone like Diddy — a man whose world has always revolved around control, autonomy, image, and dominance — they're something far more revealing. This episode explores the psychological collision between confinement and a personality built on power. What happens when a man who spent decades commanding attention is suddenly stripped of audience, status, and the ability to shape his surroundings? What happens when the boundaries he's used to bending suddenly harden into the immovable rules of the federal system? Tony examines how early infractions fit a predictable pattern seen in high-control personalities entering prison: testing limits, resisting authority, escalating entitlement, and struggling to adapt when the system pushes back. And with years still left to serve, these first missteps may be the beginning of a long, difficult road — one where every rule violation risks lost privileges, lost “good time,” and potentially even transfers to more restrictive environments. We also look ahead at the likely pitfalls:  — How repeated violations can add months or years to an inmate's stay  — Why narcissistic personalities often sabotage their own progress  — How prison documentation affects appeals, programs, and halfway-house eligibility  — And why this journey may become more psychologically punishing than the sentence itself This isn't just a story about discipline. It's a story about identity, control, and a system that does not bend for celebrity. If this is how Diddy's incarceration begins… what happens next?

Every life holds a turning point — a moment when the path forward demands not just change, but complete reinvention. For some, that moment comes quietly. For others, it arrives through struggle, loss, or even confinement. But what if those very experiences that seem to break us could, instead, become the foundation of our redemption?   In this episode, Cindy Watson and Dr. Kim Nugent, together they will discuss about From Prison to Possibilities: Negotiating Redemption, Reinvention, and Radical Self-Worth. Cindy Watson and Dr. Kim Nugent take us on a journey through the transformative power of self-belief and second chances. Together, they uncover how even in our darkest chapters, there lies an opportunity to rediscover purpose, reclaim dignity, and rise with renewed vision — proving that the greatest negotiations we ever make are the ones we make for our own redemption.   In this episode, you will learn:   The key internal negotiations that we have to make to shift from feeling stuck to stepping into new opportunities or possibilities. How to negotiate our way if we feel isolated or unsupported? Negotiating trust and forgiveness with other people in your life. How to negotiate past your fear when wanting to step into a new future? How to negotiate as a mentor even we don't see ourselves as one?

Amanda Brittani Mitchell, a woman from Virginia has been sentenced for her involvement in the horrific beating death of her 2-year-old daughter Harper. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the immediate aftermath of her conviction, there was significant debate and scrutiny over where Ghislaine Maxwell would serve her prison sentence following her 20-year federal judgment for sex-trafficking and related charges tied to Jeffrey Epstein. Initially, Maxwell was placed at the low-security women's federal prison, Federal Correctional Institution, Tallahassee in Florida. The placement raised questions because, given the severity of her crimes and high-profile nature of the case, many observers expected her to be assigned to a facility with stricter security settings. Critics argued that a low-security placement might not reflect the gravity of her offenses or adequately account for necessary protections and oversight.The debate intensified when, in 2025, Maxwell was unexpectedly transferred from FCI Tallahassee to the minimum-security camp Federal Prison Camp, Bryan in Bryan, Texas—one of the most lenient levels of federal prison. The transfer occurred shortly after she met with the Deputy U.S. Attorney General, and it sparked concerns among lawmakers who questioned whether this move constituted preferential treatment for someone convicted of facilitating the sexual abuse of minors. Some called for transparency and accountability, demanding records about how security designations are decided and whether her placement adhered to normal Bureau of Prisons policy or was outside standard procedure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Tonight on The Redacted Report, we reopen the case file on one of America's most infamous crimes—the 1966 massacre of eight student nurses in Chicago. The world knows the headline: one survivor, one killer, Richard Speck. But the real story didn't make the newspapers, and it never made the documentaries.That story begins here.We trace Speck's path long before the murders, uncovering early psychiatric evaluations, head trauma, and behavioral red flags buried in government archives—warnings ignored until it was far too late. Records from Texas expose a trail of violence against women that mirror the Chicago killings almost exactly, cases that were dismissed or quietly dropped. Maritime logs reveal a pattern of explosive aggression at sea, ignored by a system that kept placing Speck on new ships despite repeated danger.The week before the murders—long treated as an afterthought—comes into focus as a period of planning and preparation. Witnesses reported Speck stalking nurses, drawing layouts of buildings, and meeting with unknown individuals. The crime scene itself tells a story that never reached a jury: signs of earlier tampering, restraints brought in advance, and a timeline that points to a calculated, controlled attack rather than a spontaneous frenzy.Corazon Amurao's survival—heroic and heartbreaking—contains details withheld from the public for decades. She heard Speck speaking casually with the victims. She heard another voice in the townhouse. And years later, she admitted what she'd been urged to conceal: she saw a second set of feet.Even the manhunt and arrest raise questions. Speck was seen calmly sitting outside the townhouse after the murders, visited multiple locations searching for someone, and suddenly had access to money. A forged medical bracelet appeared on his wrist. An anonymous caller with medical knowledge identified him at the hospital. Nothing about his capture fits the official version. The suppressed forensic evidence is equally troubling: multiple unidentified fingerprints, unexplained footprints, a phone call placed from inside the crime scene during the murders, and a controlled drug in Speck's system he should never have had access to.Prison tapes later caught Speck alluding to “the man with the plan,” describing the killings as “the message,” and insisting he wasn't acting alone.Patterns of similar attacks on nurses in other cities, linked locations, coordinated methods, and financial trails all point to a larger, unsettling picture—one the justice system seemed unwilling to confront. Speck may have been the hand, but the question remains: whose hand was guiding him?Richard Speck died in 1991, but the unanswered questions surrounding this case remain locked behind sealed files, suppressed reports, and the memories of those told to stay silent. Tonight, we challenge the official narrative and present the case as the evidence actually shows it.On The Redacted Report, we don't repeat the story they told you.We expose the one they didn't want you to hear.

Robert opens with a surprising parallel between political power struggles and financial strategy, revealing why governments often do whatever it takes to keep markets high when control is on the line. He breaks down how stimulus policies are shaping the next phase of the bull market, the three assets best positioned to benefit, and why volatility is just the cost of staying invested when the stakes are this high.

Ever wondered what inmates can and can't have behind bars? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the bizarre case of convicted murderer Andre McKenny, who's taking legal action against his prison for denying him access to Vegemite. Sentenced to life with a 15-year non-parole period for a murder committed in Queensland in the 1990s, McKenny's lawsuit raises interesting questions about prisoner rights, rehabilitation, and what taxpayers should be funding.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recorded: February 8, 2024 | On this episode of Best of the Bus, The Boys were joined by UFC legend Michael Bisping. Michael opened up about his journey to the UFC and how a trip to jail completely changed the trajectory of his life. The guys then dove into some of Bisping’s most memorable fights, discussing which moments stuck with him the most and whether any of those wars left lasting effects. They also talked about his transition into the media side of the UFC and how he found his voice as an analyst. To wrap things up, Bisping gave his thoughts on the upcoming Chandler vs. McGregor fight and what fans should expect. Michael was hilarious throughout and told some unbelievable stories, making this an all-time episode. Big hugs, tiny kisses.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sean “Diddy” Combs, once the self-crowned king of luxury, has apparently been reduced to the lowest form of intoxication known to man: prison hooch. Reports claim the former mogul was caught with homemade alcohol inside Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution — the kind of foul, bubbling concoction inmates brew in trash bags using fruit, sugar, and desperation. Forget Cîroc. Forget top-shelf anything. What Diddy's allegedly drinking behind bars is called pruno, better known as toilet wine. It's made by mashing fruit and ketchup packets, adding water, and letting it rot until the smell alone could peel paint. It's dangerous, disgusting, and — incredibly — one of the most common contraband “delicacies” in prisons across America. In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down exactly how inmates make their booze, what they risk to do it, and how it all fits into the bizarre underground economy of prison life. From hand-sanitizer cocktails to coffee-ground highs, this is the unfiltered, unsanitized look at what really happens when the party never stops — even in federal custody. And as for Diddy? The man who once bragged about power and control now looks like every other addict who can't face silence without a fix. No entourages. No private jets. Just a bag of fermenting fruit under a bunk and the illusion that he's still the one running the show. Welcome to the new “Bad Boy” era — one that reeks of citrus rot and ego decay.

Britain's prisons are a legislative problem that has beset successive governments. New revelations show 91 accidental early releases in just six months, the latest in a growing pattern of administrative chaos across the criminal justice system. Between drones delivering drugs, crumbling Victorian buildings, exhausted staff and an ever more convoluted sentencing regime, what is the cause of so many blunders? And what will Labour's promised reforms actually fix – and are more crises inevitable?James Heale speaks to Charlie Taylor, H.M.

Sean “Diddy” Combs, once the self-crowned king of luxury, has apparently been reduced to the lowest form of intoxication known to man: prison hooch. Reports claim the former mogul was caught with homemade alcohol inside Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution — the kind of foul, bubbling concoction inmates brew in trash bags using fruit, sugar, and desperation. Forget Cîroc. Forget top-shelf anything. What Diddy's allegedly drinking behind bars is called pruno, better known as toilet wine. It's made by mashing fruit and ketchup packets, adding water, and letting it rot until the smell alone could peel paint. It's dangerous, disgusting, and — incredibly — one of the most common contraband “delicacies” in prisons across America. In this episode, Tony Brueski breaks down exactly how inmates make their booze, what they risk to do it, and how it all fits into the bizarre underground economy of prison life. From hand-sanitizer cocktails to coffee-ground highs, this is the unfiltered, unsanitized look at what really happens when the party never stops — even in federal custody. And as for Diddy? The man who once bragged about power and control now looks like every other addict who can't face silence without a fix. No entourages. No private jets.

While serving her sentence at FCI Tallahassee, Ghislaine Maxwell was quietly transferred from a higher-security setting to the prison's general population — a move that raised eyebrows among both observers and victims. Initially, she had been placed under heightened supervision following her transfer from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where she had complained of harsh conditions and constant monitoring. Once in Tallahassee, however, Maxwell's status changed, granting her access to privileges afforded to the general inmate population, including recreation areas, social interaction, and communal dining. The Bureau of Prisons justified the move as routine, citing her good behavior and the lack of disciplinary issues, but many found the decision unusually generous for a convicted sex trafficker linked to one of the most notorious criminal networks of the century.The transfer to general population was widely interpreted as a sign of the soft treatment Maxwell appeared to be receiving compared to other inmates convicted of similar crimes. Reports surfaced of her adapting comfortably, socializing with other prisoners, and even earning the nickname “G-Max” inside the facility. Victim advocates criticized the move as another example of how power and privilege can distort accountability, even behind bars. For them, it was less about Maxwell's comfort and more about the optics — that a woman convicted of facilitating abuse against minors was now living among regular inmates, no longer under the scrutiny that defined her early incarceration. To many, her move to GP symbolized the quiet easing of consequences that so often follows when the powerful finally face justice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Prison officials found 46-year-old Tremane Wood unresponsive on his cell floor and rushed him to the hospital shortly after he got the news he and his family had been hoping for, from the Governor. Woods was granted clemency exactly 1 minute before he was scheduled to die by lethal injection, so how did he end up hospitalized with a busted head and lip? Later in the day, a much different scene in Florida, where that state executed its 16th inmate of the year, more than 4 decades after Bryan Jennings brutally murdered 6-year-old Becky Kunash.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When Philemon, a prominent member of the Christian congregation in Colossae, needs pastoral care, St. Paul writes to him in humility. The Apostle gives thanks for the fruit of faith that Philemon has brought forth and appeals to Philemon to bring forth that same fruit now toward his runaway slave, Onesimus. St. Paul reminds Philemon that Onesimus is now a fellow brother in Christ who has been useful to St. Paul while in prison and now will be the same to Philemon when Onesimus returns. St. Paul imitates the example of Christ in promising to pay any debt on behalf of Onesimus, even as the Apostle expresses confidence that Philemon will receive Onesimus in Christian love.  Rev. Jacob Dandy, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church and School in Atchison, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Philemon 1-25.  To learn more about Trinity Lutheran, visit trinityatchison.org. “Letters from Prison” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that studies Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon. Even when Paul was imprisoned for the sake of Christ, the Word of God remained unbound. The apostle's letters from prison still fill us with the same joy that his chains could never silence. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) The State of Connecticut charged Teresa Beatty $249 per day, every day, while she was in prison for a minor drug offense from 2000 to 2002—But she wouldn't discover this until 20 years later. When her mother died in 2020, the State of Connecticut filed a notice in probate court demanding approximately 35%—over $83,000—of Beatty's inheritance. And it was perfectly legal. In fact, at least 45 states in America force you to pay (literally) for the privilege of being imprisoned in a country with one of the highest incarceration rates in the world... This is Beatty v.
