Roger Aletras grew up in New York — and by 16 years old he was already robbing people at gunpoint. What followed was a criminal career that escalated from armed robbery to working with organized crime running jewel heists across New York. When the feds came for him on a gun charge it was only the beginning. A murder during a drug deal in Vermont ultimately sent him to federal prison where he spent over 30 years inside some of America's most dangerous facilities. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Roger opens up about the complete arc of his criminal life — from his first gun robbery at 16 to the jewel heists to the murder that changed everything. He shares what life inside prison really looked like as someone connected to organized crime — the politics the power structures and the stories nobody has ever heard. And he talks about what 30 years behind bars does to a person and what life looks like on the other side. _____________________________________________ #organizedcrime #truecrimecommunity #prisonlife _____________________________________________ Thank you to MARS MEN & BLUEPRINT for sponsoring this episode: Mars Men: For a limited time, our listeners get 50% off FOR LIFE, Free Shipping, AND 3 Free Gifts at Mars Men at https://mengotomars.com/ _____________________________________________ Blueprint: For a limited time only, our listeners get 20% off + free shipping at https://blueprint.bryanjohnson.com/ by using code LOCKEDIN at checkout. #Blueprint #ad _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Armed Robber Who Faced the Death Penalty — Roger's Complete Story 00:28 His Early Childhood Broken Home and the Environment That Set Everything in Motion 01:52 His First Crimes and the Juvenile Arrest That Started Everything 06:12 Life Inside Juvenile Detention and What That World Really Looked Like 14:24 Getting Caught Robbing a Gun Store and What That Moment Really Felt Like 20:00 Learning How to Be a Better Criminal Inside Prison and What That Education Looked Like 27:00 Prison Life and the Hard Realities That Defined His Early Years Inside 32:00 Getting Released Reoffending and What Getting Pulled Into Organized Crime Really Involved 41:00 Maximum Security at Green Haven — One of New York's Most Brutal Prisons 43:00 The Escalation From Theft to Armed Robbery and What Drove That Transition 47:00 Shootouts and Life on the Run — the Most Dangerous Chapter of His Criminal Career 54:00 Prison in New Jersey and the Culture That Governed Everything Inside 01:00:00 Prison Violence the Codes That Govern It and What Survival Actually Required 01:05:00 Armored Car Robberies and the Elevated Risks That Came With That World 01:11:00 The Transition to Federal Prison and What That Step Up Really Looked Like 01:18:00 Federal Prison Challenges and the Big Cases That Defined His Time Inside 01:26:00 Facing a Murder Case and the Death Penalty — the Moment Everything Almost Ended Forever 01:35:00 The Prison Transformation — Education Reflection and the Shift That Changed Everything 01:45:00 Release and What Starting Over After Everything He Survived Really Looked Like 01:50:00 His Regrets His Redemption and the Advice He Wants Everyone to Hear _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

FILM FEST TIX: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 FULL EPISODE: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Long Summary Dave welcomes Heart Attack Doug back to Dopey Tuesday on his birthday, though he's not exactly feeling celebratory after waking up groggy from NyQuil and discovering that his daughter forgot it was his birthday. Doug immediately notices Dave's low energy, launching a conversation about birthday expectations and disappointments. The bulk of the opening centers around a heated debate about the season finale of Euphoria. Dave argues that the show abandoned its core characters and became an entirely different series, while Doug enthusiastically defends it and praises the acting. The two argue over Nate's storyline, Rue's fate, Ali's character arc, and whether the show has any future after its finale. The conversation shifts into prison talk when Montana's latest letter arrives from a Texas prison. Montana shares updates about college classes, Toastmasters, prison job training officers, losing his dog, and staying sober. This leads Doug to speculate about how Dave would survive prison, suggesting he'd either join a gang or become part of a strange collection of intellectuals, misfits, and recovery people. Dave insists he'd survive through entertainment value and his connection to recovery. Dave also reflects on a recent doctor's appointment and how grateful he is not to be regularly drug tested anymore. The conversation spirals into stories about fake urine, the Wizinator, and the absurd lengths addicts go to avoid failing drug tests. The guys read Patreon and Spotify comments, discuss the upcoming Dopey Short Film Festival, promote Patreon, and eventually prepare to reveal the results of the Dopey Sticker Contest.

128: We Can Change How The Public Sees Corrections

Corrections gets judged by headlines it didn't write, so I'm taking you behind the scenes of a month that reminded me why this profession deserves real respect. From Correctional Officers Week events to national recognition, I share the moments that felt like the “best of corrections” and the lessons we can bring back to our own agencies.We start at the One Voice United conference (link below), where I join Pete Bludworth (Corrections Unfiltered) and Sarah Robuck (Lexipol and Corrections1) to talk about our jobs and our voices. If we don't tell the truth about what correctional officers do, nature abhors a vacuum, and the public story gets filled with TV myths, one-sided news, and silence about the good work happening inside facilities. We also dig into wellness in corrections, efforts to get lawmakers to walk through prisons before setting policy on staffing and funding, and a powerful account from New York's union leadership caught between political pressure and officers pushed past the breaking point.Then we pivot to the stories many people never hear: the role correctional staff played during 9/11 recovery, and how corrections shows up in emergencies with resources and readiness. I also talk about practical support for staff, including a vendor focused on home loans for public servants that explicitly includes corrections, and the National Medal of Honor for Corrections banquet, where courage and service are honored on a national stage. One of the vendors I met at OVU (link below) is a company that is working to get public service heroes, including correctional officers, into houses. American Hero Home Loans uses its Hero Advantage+™ to connect eligible heroes with trusted real estate, lending, title, settlement, insurance, and home service partners. We close with training and leadership: field training insights from the Southeast Field Training Officers Association (SEFTOA - link below). I also share with a new leadership class my framework for handling change by reframing fear and walking through the next door of their life with skill and confidence.If you care about corrections leadership, correctional officer wellness, and changing public perception of corrections, this one's for you.

We talk with Captain Tevin Dixon about the road from Oklahoma DOC Correctional Officer to shift supervisor and the mentors who shaped his calm, respectful leadership style. We also break down the gate incident with a derogatory provocateur and why professionalism, transparency, and peer support matter when corrections gets tested in public. We also dig into what shaped Tevin's leadership long before he wore a uniform: growing up in Oklahoma with a true village, being held accountable by family, and learning discipline through work and expectations. He shares what it felt like to step into prison work at 24 with no prior exposure, how mentors guided him, and why respect, nonverbal communication, and policy knowledge are survival skills for any corrections officer. His time in both security and case management adds another layer, showing how understanding process, paperwork, and programming can make you more effective and more approachable.The conversation goes deeper into mentorship and resilience, including what Tevin tells younger officers, how he supports staff under stress, and why corrections trauma is often invisible to the public. If you care about prison safety, correctional staff wellness, leadership under pressure, and what professionalism looks like when someone is trying to bait you on camera, this one is for you.

Most use-of-force problems don't start with bad intent; they start with bad preparation. We're talking with Joe Buice, a lifelong martial artist and retired sheriff's office lieutenant who has spent decades in corrections, led high-liability teams, and now serves as Pepperball's Director of Implementation. The result is a practical, no-theory conversation about what actually keeps officers safe in jails, prisons, and street encounters. We get specific about defensive tactics and why “just grab an arm” fails when stress hits. Joe breaks down the real gap he sees across agencies: perishable skills treated like check-the-box training. We discuss how hesitation shows up in body-worn video reviews, why fundamentals and repetition create fluidity, and how control tactics can reduce injuries for both staff and inmates while staying inside policy and lawful orders. We also connect the dots between training and leadership. Joe shares how strong teams are built by putting the right people in the right roles, leading from the front, and slowing down long enough to listen. Then we shift to safer options first, including Pepperball for distance, area saturation, buffer zones, and lowering the career-long toll of hands-on fights. If you care about corrections officer safety, law enforcement training, defensive tactics that work, and smarter use of force decisions, this one delivers.

Sarah also shares behind-the-scenes stories from set, the emotional weight of playing a character inside prison walls, and how that experience later influenced her work, including being cast on The Walking Dead. _____________________________________________ #SarahWayneCallies #PrisonBreak #SaraTancredi #TVInterviews #BehindTheScenes #HollywoodStories #ActingCareer #youtubepodcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Sarah Wayne Callies: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahwaynecallies/?hl=en Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi6Syro1Uk5qZ-mf_q4v6lQ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Filming Prison Break Inside a Real Prison 01:00 Career Growth, Podcasting & Season 3 Absence 03:50 Fan Reactions and Returning to Prison Break 05:30 On-Screen Chemistry and Cast Behind-the-Scenes Stories 07:20 Growing Up in Hawaii and Cultural Identity 10:30 Storytelling, Inspiration, and Gender Perspectives 14:00 College Dreams and Discovering the Power of Story 17:00 Theater, Family Influence, and Why Stories Matter 21:30 Dartmouth College, Culture Shock, and Life Lessons 25:00 Marriage, Early Career, and Connecting With Fans 28:00 Watching TV in Prison and Prison Break Reactions 33:00 Expectations vs Reality of Prison Life 36:00 Rehabilitation, Humanity, and the Impact of Incarceration 40:00 Private Prisons, For-Profit Systems, and Policy Shifts 44:00 Prison Camps, Fire Programs, and Second Chances 47:00 Reentry, Halfway Houses, and Breaking the Cycle 52:00 Finding Work After Prison and Systemic Barriers 55:00 Public Perception, Compassion, and Moral Complexity 01:01:00 Visiting a Real Prison and Humanizing Incarceration 01:10:00 Casting Stories and Sara Tancredi's Evolution 01:18:00 Fandom, Privacy, and Life in the Spotlight 01:23:00 Fame, Pressure, and Public Scrutiny 01:30:00 Acting Challenges and Favorite Prison Break Moments 01:36:00 Transitioning to The Walking Dead and Set Culture 01:44:00 COVID, Resetting Priorities, and Family Focus 01:48:00 Reflection, Accountability, and Making Amends 01:55:00 Giving Back, Extreme Empathy, and Advocacy 01:58:00 Hospice Work, Prison Reform, and Ongoing Mission 02:00:00 Final Reflections and Gratitude Learn more about your ad choices.

Dillan Judkins grew up in Utah after being put up for adoption at birth by his mother, who was struggling with addiction, and raised by a loving Mormon family — but rebellion, alcohol, and trouble started early. In this episode, Dillan shares how a sexual assault charge stemming from a one-night stand at a party when he was 18 changed his life forever, leading to months in county jail awaiting trial, a probation deal, repeated violations, and ultimately spending nearly 15 years inside the Utah prison system. He explains how he survived prison with a stigmatizing charge, his side of the story, the realities of navigating the system, and the long-term impact incarceration has had on his life, identity, and future. _____________________________________________ #UtahPrison #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #PrisonLife #HowISurvived #InmateStories #LockedIn #podcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Dillan Judkins: Facebook & Instagram: InkkEnvyy Tiktok: inkk.envy _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Arrested at Home: Waking Up to Police 00:34 Growing Up Adopted in Rural Utah 02:26 Finding My Biological Parents 03:34 Family Struggles & Feeling Like the Outsider 05:52 Rebellion, Church, and Early Violence 09:35 Losing Control 14:14 School Trouble & First Criminal Behavior 18:14 Dropping Out & Alternative School Life 21:12 The Night Everything Changed 29:14 Police Investigation & Interrogation 32:40 Charged With Serious Crimes & First Time in Jail 38:00 Jail Politics & Surviving Serious Charges 46:06 Trial Prep, Legal Mistakes & Taking a Plea Deal 52:35 Regret, Probation Violation & Sentenced to Prison 01:00:28 Living With a Life-Changing Sentence 01:06:07 County Jails, Prison Life & Treatment Programs 01:13:00 Inside the Sex Offender Program 01:24:09 Prison Reputation, Tattoos & Survival 01:32:00 Life After Prison: Stigma, Labels & Reality 01:40:13 Loss, Reflection & Lessons Learned Learn more about your ad choices.

Convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell may be serving a 20-year sentence — but according to a federal whistleblower and a new congressional letter, she's living more like a guest than an inmate. House Democrats led by Rep. Jamie Raskin are demanding answers from the Department of Justice after explosive allegations surfaced that Maxwell is receiving VIP treatment at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas. Reports claim she's enjoying custom-delivered meals, after-hours private workouts, unmonitored computer access, and even direct help from the warden in preparing a sentence-commutation request to former President Donald Trump. Maxwell — who helped Jeffrey Epstein run his international sex-trafficking operation — was convicted in 2021 and transferred to the minimum-security Texas camp despite her sex-offender status. The whistleblower alleges her transfer followed a private interview with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, formerly Trump's attorney, raising questions about political influence, favoritism, and potential misuse of federal authority. In this episode, Tony Brueski exposes what's in the congressional letter, what the DOJ is being asked to explain, and why this could signal one of the most disturbing breakdowns in accountability yet. Is the justice system bending once again for the powerful? Has Ghislaine Maxwell found a way to turn her secrets into leverage? And what does this say about the ongoing rot inside the system that let Epstein operate for decades?

He's walking into a federal leash so tight, every step comes with surveillance, restrictions, and the constant threat of being yanked back to prison. In this episode, we break down exactly what five years of supervised release looks like for someone like Sean “Diddy” Combs. From unannounced home searches to mandatory mental health evaluations, from travel bans to random drug tests — this isn't freedom. It's federal purgatory. And for a man who built his identity around control, excess, and status, that's more than punishment — it's psychological warfare.
