As states like South Carolina bring back the firing squad, a once-archaic method of execution is making a quiet return. We explore what's driving this shift, and why some inmates, like Scott Dozier, saw it as a more humane option than lethal injection. This segment explores the ethical and logistical cracks in America's capital punishment system — and what the rise of the firing squad says about where we're headed.

Sergeant James Booker is a retired law enforcement officer with a remarkable legacy of service, leadership, and integrity. Growing up in a family deeply rooted in law enforcement in Pensacola, Florida, Booker began his public service after leaving the Marine Corps and worked his way from the only true "prison" in Florida—Florida State Prison—to the progressive and challenging Broward County Sheriff's Department. Over the course of his career, Booker earned a reputation for steadfast principles, hands-on leadership, and unwavering commitment to doing what’s right, no matter the cost. His journey includes facing the harsh realities of the correctional system, mentoring future leaders like Raymond Hicks, and providing guidance and hope to those navigating profound personal and professional trials. Takeaways: Character and Standards Matter: Booker emphasizes that maintaining your values and upholding high standards, especially in positions of authority, defines your legacy and influence as a leader. Prisons Run on Complex, Unseen Dynamics: The real-life operations and power structures inside prisons are far more nuanced and disciplined than most people realize—offering a stark contrast to TV and movie depictions. Leadership is Service and Sacrifice: True leadership is shown through mentorship, unwavering support during adversity, tough but fair accountability, and always putting integrity above personal convenience. Sound Bites: "Most people think in Florida that there's a multitude of prisons. It's only one prison in the state of Florida... everything else is a correctional facility or work camp." "At the end of the day, that's all people can judge you on is your character. Nothing else. It's your character." "If something is wrong, just know it's wrong. Nobody can tell you it's right when you know it's wrong." Mick’s Quote: "How you do small things is how you do all things."

On this episode of Federal Prison Authority Presents: Around the Block, Bruce and Susan this week have a special guest, Dory Sater. Dory is a former inmate and has experience going through the prison system. He shared how he navigated the system to be released early via First Step Act credits. He shares what that process was like for him and his family. In the past, he was a lawyer for almost 25 years, and he used this knowledge to inform others and prepare him for his sentence. Dory emphasizes the importance of staying busy and how the freedom within his confinement helped not only his physical health but his mental health as well. Currently, Dory is in the process of trying to regain his license in law and continue his passion. A big topic of discussion is the difference between home confinement and a halfway house. Dory also talks about how he stayed hopeful even during his confinement's difficult times. Toward the end, they discuss how COVID shook up the confinement process and explore how the prison system is still a work in progress. This very informative episode gives viewers an inside look at what it is like to go through the system. Dr. Susan Giddings can be found on their shared website https://federalprisonauthority.com/who-we-are/ Bruce through his cell (214) 431-2032, and they referenced the First Step Act best-seller on Amazon- https://a.co/d/f4NxxYx

Imprisonment was rarely used as punishment in Britain before 1800. The criminal justice system was based on terror and deterrence, sentencing convicts to the gallows at home and transportation overseas, with prisons serving primarily as holding spaces for the accused until the case against them was resolved. A major shift began in the late eighteenth century when imprisonment became an end in itself: a means to reform as well as to discipline criminal offenders. To Detain or to Punish: Magistrates and the Making of the London Prison System, 1750–1840 (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2025) by Dr. Kiran Mehta revisits this revolutionary moment as it played out in the metropolis of London. Dr. Mehta charts how Londoners, through their interactions with police, magistrates, and judges, became prisoners, and then follows them into the prison, revealing how these institutions were managed and experienced. Local authorities' increased use of imprisonment, for punishment as well as for detention, sparked the wholesale reconstruction and redesign of London's prison estate. It also spurred the consolidation of the modern notion that prisoners who had not yet been convicted of a crime, or who had not been sentenced to imprisonment, should be held separately from and treated differently to those incarcerated for punishment. Most notably, the requirement to labour became a distinguishing feature of punitive confinement. Challenging traditional ideas about who and what prisons were for and how they operated, To Detain or to Punish offers a radical reappraisal of London's prison system between 1750 and 1840.  This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Clint Armitage tackles the complex and controversial topic of the death penalty through the lens of a recent execution in South Carolina. The episode centers around the case of Keith Sigmon, the first inmate in 15 years to be executed by firing squad in the United States, after being convicted of a brutal double homicide in 2001. Clint begins by presenting a gripping news clip detailing the execution process, highlighting the historical significance of this method in the context of modern-day capital punishment. As he unpacks the details surrounding Sigmon's heinous crime, including the tragic impact on the victims' family, Clint encourages listeners to reflect on the moral and ethical implications of the death penalty. Throughout the episode, Clint poses challenging questions about the role of Christians in the conversation surrounding capital punishment. He shares insights from Sigmon's final statement, where Sigmon calls for an end to the death penalty, emphasizing the shift from Old Testament law to the New Testament's message of love and redemption. Clint explores whether Christians should support the death penalty, considering biblical teachings and the nature of justice and mercy. As the discussion unfolds, Clint invites listeners to contemplate the psychological burden faced by correctional officers who volunteer for such executions, prompting deeper reflections on faith, morality, and personal conviction. He also addresses the nuanced nature of sin and justice, emphasizing the importance of understanding both the physical and spiritual consequences of our actions. Tune in to this compelling episode of the Radio Coffee House to engage with these critical questions and discover how faith intersects with some of society's most pressing issues. Join Clint as he navigates the complexities of justice, mercy, and the Christian response to the death penalty.  -----

Today I welcome two previous guests from earlier this season to share their unique experiences and expertise on the topic of vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue. Mark Walsh, an embodiment coach, trauma trainer & host of The Embodiment Podcast, and Christian Branscombe, a restorative justice facilitator and coach.

Jessica Jackson understands the damage wreaked by excessive incarceration and supervision firsthand.

She talks about her work running The Reform Alliance as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Advocacy Officer and shares the legislation she's helped make possible so far. She also shares why tackling stigma and isolation is so key to future progress on this issue and the personal traits that she's depended on the most to overcome hurdles and challenges.
