Podcasts about Recidivism

What does it really take to break the cycle of crime? In Part 2 of this conversation, Gary sits down with Lincoln Tarrow-Lynch, a man caught up in crime since he was a kid, who’d spent years dealing drugs, battling ice addiction, and surviving on the fringes of society, to uncover what finally turned his life around. Lincoln opens up about his first adult prison sentence, losing his mother while behind bars, and walking out of jail with nothing but a plastic bag and no support network. He shares how Rainbow Lodge, a post-release residential program in Sydney, gave him the soft landing he needed, and why without it, he's certain he'd have gone straight back into jail.

SONS of LIBERTY Radio with Bradlee Dean Hear Ye, Hear Ye! Hear Ye, Hear Ye: Public Judgment, Moral Crisis, and the Cost of Silence Public Abuse Allegations and Institutional Cover-Ups The episode opens with a prerecorded segment connecting the Penn State scandal and the Franklin cover-up through allegations of abuse, institutional silence, missing evidence, and the vulnerability of children served by charitable organizations. The segment presents these cases as examples of public trust being violated and argues that powerful individuals and institutions were protected while victims were left without justice. Historical Warnings and Biblical Government The program then moves into historical and religious quotations, including remarks attributed to Noah Webster, Thomas Jefferson, John Dickinson, Theodore Roosevelt, and other public figures. These segments frame the episode around the host's view that American civil government should be measured by biblical morality, constitutional limits, and public accountability rather than by the power of officials or institutions. Apathy, Entertainment, and Public Responsibility The host argues that Americans have become distracted by spectacle, entertainment, politics, and corporate influence while losing sight of liberty, justice, and civic vigilance. He compares modern public entertainment to historical forms of public spectacle and repeatedly warns that people who remain passive in a time of corruption help create the conditions for greater judgment, tyranny, and social disorder. Crime, Recidivism, and Judicial Failure A major theme of the episode is the host's claim that repeat offenders, weak courts, and delayed consequences are endangering the public. He presents recidivism statistics and multiple crime examples to argue that the justice system is failing victims, rewarding criminals, and generating money for institutional interests while neglecting what he describes as biblical justice and lawful consequence. Constitutional Rights and Corrupt Officials The episode also returns to constitutional government, especially the Second and Fourth Amendments, gun bans, confiscation concerns, and the responsibility of representatives to obey the Constitution. The host argues that citizens must not obey unconstitutional decrees and that public officials who violate constitutional limits should be lawfully removed rather than treated as rulers over the people. Religious Judgment, Political Influence, and Closing Appeal Near the end, the host discusses religious leaders, political figures, institutional deception, Freemasonry, intelligence influence, and the Epstein files as part of a broader argument that corruption survives because citizens and churches fail to bring lawful judgment. The closing appeal centers on the idea that people should not blame God for evil while refusing, in the host's view, to obey God's commandments and enforce justice. Franklin Coverup and Penn State Parallels The host opens the program by comparing the Franklin Coverup involving Larry King's alleged procurement of children from Boys Town for powerful figures and blackmail to the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State where the Second Mile charity was used to abuse boys with university officials covering it up. Suspicious Deaths and Investigations Details are given of investigator Gary Carradori's plane explosion that scattered child pornography evidence seized by the FBI and the mysterious disappearance of district attorney Ray Grecar whose computer showed searches on destroying hard drives both tied to attempts to expose the abuse rings. Biblical and Historical Foundations Quotations from Noah Webster Thomas Jefferson John Dickinson and other founders are presented to argue that Christian biblical principles form the basis of American liberty morality and civil government while neglecting Scripture leads to vice crime and oppression. Modern Moral Decay and Pride Culture The host condemns tolerance of pride parades transgender issues and normalization of child sexual abuse citing Romans 1 and Amos 6:1 as warnings that such tolerance hastens God's judgment on the nation while Christians remain apathetic at ease in Zion. Media Bias Crime Recidivism and Immigration Examples of unreported black-on-white crimes by repeat offenders with dozens of prior arrests are contrasted with media focus on white perpetrators while Somali gang involvement in a Minnesota shooting is said to be covered up and blamed on a white suspect illustrating selective reporting and failed justice. Conspiracy Controlled Opposition and Call to Justice Discussions range from Steven Spielberg's films attacking Christianity and CIA influence in Hollywood to Epstein files Netanyahu visits Zionist use of Muslims and Turning Point USA figures including Erica Kirk Candace Owens and Frank Turek portrayed as controlled opposition or heretics while urging listeners to stand for biblical justice against workers of iniquity.

A Kitchen With a Mission; Waioli Kitchen and Bake Shop Ross Anderson — Co-founderRestaurant veteran of 30+ years (formerly ran Hawaii's largest restaurant company). Now leads a mission-driven cafe on the Salvation Army property in Manoa that hires women coming out of the prison system. Co-founded with his wife Stephanie, a pastor who served at the women's prison.The One-Sentence StoryA seasoned hospitality leader thought he could fix lives with checklists and tight supervision — then discovered that the real transformation only began when he stopped trying to give the women jobs and started helping them become who they were created to be.The Big IdeaRelationship over Transaction. Waioli's entire model is built on the premise that human beings heal in community, not in process. Ross and Stephanie set out to open a restaurant on a mission — and discovered that mission only worked when they put the person before the program.Story → Insight → ApplicationThe StoryStephanie volunteered at the women's prison and watched the same painful loop repeat itself: women who thrived inside the walls would walk out the gate, fall back into broken relationships, and return. Recidivism was staggering. She told Ross, "We can do better."In 2018 they opened Waioli Kitchen and Bake Shop on Salvation Army property — alcohol-free by design ("My restaurant friends said don't do it, you're losing your big profit driver"). They expected to do what Ross had always done: hire, train, supervise, repeat. The first three years their recidivism rate was nearly 80%.Then COVID hit. The neighborhood rallied around them. They stayed open. And on the other side of it, Ross changed the entire approach — from teaching women a trade to helping them discover their identity. For the last three years, recidivism has been zero.The InsightMost well-meaning programs try to fix people with systems. What actually changes a life is being seen — by a boss, a coworker, a customer, a community. Ross stopped running a restaurant that helped women and started running a community that happened to serve breakfast.The ApplicationLead with why, not with process. Ross opened by saying, "We're a restaurant on a mission." The mission is the product; the food is the proof.Replace checklists with conversation. The pre-shift huddle is now 15–20 minutes of reading and discussing scripture together — not because every business should do that, but because the principle holds: invest in the person before you deploy the worker.Make people visible to one another. Customers now know the staff by name, ask about their kids, celebrate their milestones. Visibility is the antidote to invisibility.Be willing to throw out what worked before. Ross's 30 years of restaurant expertise didn't change these women's lives. Letting go of "what I know" was the unlock.Memorable Quotes "We're a restaurant on a mission.""Anybody can — you give me a dollar, I give you a donut, and we're on our way. But now we're starting to have relationship. And that's what it is.""It takes a community to heal the community.""It's harder than getting something to go viral. It's harder than getting a bunch of clicks — but it matters, and it's gonna last when the next shiny penny shows up.""We started focusing on helping them be who they were meant to be, rather than trying to get them to go into their next career.""Our first three years our recidivism rate was almost 80%. For the last three years it's been zero."Connection to HumanalityRoss is a living case study for humanality — making people feel cared for, valued, and seen in a world that defaults to transactional. He named it without using the word:"Most of the girls that come out of prison are invisible to this neighborhood. They would walk right by them, not even see them. But now they've become visible to each other."Instagram: @waiolikitchenFacebook: Waioli Kitchen & Bake Shop#waiolikitchenandbakeshopWebsite: waiolikitchen.com

In the United States, recidivism rate, or the likelihood that a criminal re-enters the prison system after being released, is among the highest in the world. The state with the highest reincarceration rate (within 3 years) is Delaware at 55.9 percent. While the lowest is Virginia at 17.9 percent. Earlier this month, Make Me Smart host, Kimberly Adams, moderated the 2026 Second Chance Forum at Georgetown University on the importance of second-chance employment programs to lowering recidivism rates in the United States. Adams sat down with two top law enforcement officials from across the aisle: Delaware Attorney General and Democrat, Kathy Jennings and Pennsylvania Attorney General and Republican, Dave Sunday.Today's podcast is an edited version of their conversation.

LEO Round Table: Analysis of Illinois Crime Policies, Political Violence, and Tactical Failures LEO Round Table: The State of Public Safety Roundtable Analysis: Illinois Crime Policy, Political Violence, & Tactical Realities (April 2026) LIVE TRANSCRIPT SUMMARY 核心议题 / Key Briefings Illinois: The Data Blackout The state has failed to track recidivism since 2022 (previously 37%). Mayor Brandon Johnson labels traditional policing a "sickness" while homicide trends face scrutiny. The Rhetoric of Violence JD Vance cites polling where 26% of young liberals justify political violence. Reports emerge of social media "hit lists" targeting conservative figures. Officer Safety & Tactical Failure Lorain, OH Ambush: Suspect fired 193 rounds.

The community gets hurt because the politics are separating the components that should work as a team." — ROUNDTABLE CONSENSUS 193 ROUNDS FIRED 26% JUSTIFY VIOLENCE Duration: 43:35 • Audience: Law Enforcement Professionals Sponsors: Galls • Compliant Technologies • GunLearn This edition of the LEO Round Table features a panel of law enforcement veterans discussing the suspension of recidivism tracking in Illinois and the rhetoric of Chicago's leadership. The discussion transitions into the alarming rise of political "hit lists" and concludes with a somber tactical breakdown of recent deadly ambushes on police officers. The Illinois Data Blackout and Chicago's Leadership Crisis The panel addressed a critical failure in the Illinois Department of Corrections, which has not released recidivism data since 2022, citing "IT programming issues." This lack of transparency prevents the public from knowing if rehabilitation efforts are working or if the system remains a "revolving door" for offenders. In 2022, the recidivism rate stood at 37% within three years of release, but current figures remain hidden. Simultaneously, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has drawn fire for labeling traditional law enforcement and incarceration a "sickness" that must be eradicated. The panel noted that while the Mayor claims traditional policing has failed, historical data shows that Chicago's homicides were significantly lower during periods of proactive enforcement compared to the recent pandemic-era surges. Experts on the panel argued that this rhetoric undermines the "triangle" of effective public safety: suppression, prevention, and intervention.

This episode confronts a complexity of the U.S. justice system: education within prisons. What does educational opportunity look like for incarcerated individuals? The sheer scale of incarceration in the United States and devolved, state-by-state control has led to a patchwork system of educational resources that ends up being sometimes at odds with its own rehabilitative goals. Join us for a look at the challenges and systemic failures of correctional schooling and the quiet efforts to address them, which often aim to reduce recidivism and even the bottom line for taxpayers. 00:20 Intro & Announcements 00:00 The Scale of Incarceration in the U.S. 03:30 Federal vs. State Prison Education: Repeatable Process or Patchwork Promises? 12:00 Policy Levers for Improvement & States that Excel (Ohio, California) 18:30 Pell Grant Access 25:00 Incentives, Recidivism, and Privatization 31:00 Teaching in Prison: Qualifications and Challenges 37:00 What We Learned (Mariel Boatlift) For a full list of episode sources and resources, visit our website.

Angela Stanton-King opens up about growing up in Atlanta, becoming a mother at a young age, and how the pressure to survive pushed her into hustling in the streets. Her path eventually led to two prison sentences, including the emotional experience of giving birth while incarcerated. In this episode of the Locked In Podcast with Ian Bick, Angela shares how she rebuilt her life after prison by writing books, starting a nonprofit, and becoming a voice for criminal justice reform. Her journey of survival, redemption, and reinvention ultimately led to receiving a presidential pardon, changing the course of her life forever. _____________________________________________ #angelastantonking #realhousewivesofatlanta #ianbick #lockedinpodcast #truecrime #federalprison #presidentialpardon #atlantageorgia _____________________________________________ Thanks to Married By The Mob for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://www.marriedbythemob.com/ to grab your tickets today! _____________________________________________ Connect with Angela Stanton-King https://www.instagram.com/theangiestanton/ _____________________________________________ 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 Growing Up, Family Background & Early Struggles 01:12 Childhood Rebellion & Teen Pregnancy 03:15 Dropping Out & Entering Street Life 06:10 Crime, Scams & First Arrests 09:00 First Prison Sentence & Life Behind Bars 13:00 Life After Prison & Reentry Struggles 15:15 Back to the Streets & Nonprofit Work 17:30 Second Prison Sentence & Motherhood in Prison 21:00 Loss, Grief & Family Separation 24:40 Federal Charges & Hitting Rock Bottom 27:00 Turning Point: Meeting Alveda King 28:35 Writing Her Story & Becoming an Advocate 33:35 Lawsuit, Vindication & Book Success 36:00 Rising Influence & Public Platform 38:40 Criminal Justice Reform & Trump Connection 42:54 Presidential Pardon & Redemption Story 46:01 How the Pardon Process Works 50:00 Advocacy, Recidivism & System Failures 53:15 Restitution & Barriers After Prison 56:00 Life After Prison & Public Judgment 01:00:00 Faith, Purpose & Advice for Others Learn more about your ad choices.

March 8th, 2026:  The 3rd Sunday of Lent - The Reprobate Sins;  Learning from Whining - Trusting God's Plan;  Climbing Out of the Pit of Recidivism

Episode Summary In this episode of the Jabot Podcast, host Kathryn Rubino speaks with economist and criminal justice expert Jennifer Doleac, author of The Science of Second Chances: A Revolution in Criminal Justice and Executive Vice President of Criminal Justice at Arnold Ventures. Drawing from economic research and real-world policy analysis, Doleac explains how data — not ideology — should guide criminal justice reform. The conversation explores how incentives shape behavior, why increasing the certainty of consequences works better than harsher punishment, and how evidence challenges many widely accepted assumptions about crime policy. From probation reform and recidivism research to hiring discrimination and unintended policy consequences, Doleac argues that solving complex justice problems requires experimentation, humility, and rigorous testing. The episode ultimately reframes criminal justice reform as a question of incentives, systems design, and evidence-based decision-making rather than political narratives.

Princess Diana's decision to dismiss her official protection officers changed everything.John Lennon walked out of the Dakota without security — and paid the ultimate price.In this episode of Crime Time Inc., Tom and Simon go inside the rarely-seen world of close protection — the meticulous planning, quiet threat assessments, and fragile trust that stand between public figures and catastrophe.This is not Hollywood bodyguard mythology. It's the real machinery of prevention.Drawing on decades of operational experience, we explore how personal protection officers (PPOs) are selected, how risk is assessed, and why security is judged only on the rare occasions it fails — not the thousands of times it works perfectly.In this episode:Why cartel “decapitations” rarely change the drug tradeHow VIP protection is actually allocated in the UKThe role of trust between principal and protection teamPrincess Diana, Martin Bashir, and the collapse of protective trustJohn Lennon's assassination — and what close protection would likely have identifiedFixated individuals, mental health policy changes, and escalating riskRoyal logistics: route planning, venue reconnaissance, and layered securityThe Nottingham killings and the hard questions about management and containmentCharles Bronson and the parole dilemma: how do you assess “safe to release”?Recidivism, early release, and the consequences of under-resourced aftercareThe Lord Advocate explained — and why Scotland's dual-role system is under strainKey takeawayClose protection is mostly invisible.It's preparation, prevention, and discretion.When it succeeds, nobody notices.When it fails, history remembers.Follow Crime Time Inc. on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all major platforms for insider analysis of the systems that shape crime, punishment, and public safety.You can buy the books mentioned in the podcast's by clicking the links belowTom's Best Selling Book:Ruxton: The First Modern Murder Paperback EditionRuxton: The First Modern Murder Kindle EditionSimon's Best Selling Book:The Ten Percent Paperback EditionThe Ten Percent Kindle EditionOur Website: https://crimetimeinc.com/If you like this show please leave a review.

Many are just in survival mode.” On success:“Progress—any form of it—is success. The difference between success and failure is taking action.” On leadership:“We don’t succeed unless they succeed.” On financial literacy:“It’s not about how much you make—it’s about what you do with it.” On courage:“I walk by faith.

Episode Summary In this episode of The Jabot Podcast, host Kathryn Rubino sits down with public defender, reform advocate, and author Emily Galvin Almanza to discuss her new book The Price of Mercy: Unfair Trials, a Broken System, and a Public Defender's Search for Justice in America. Emily shares her unexpected path into law, her deep commitment to criminal defense, and the emotional realities of representing clients navigating one of the most consequential systems in American society. Drawing from years in public defense and her work co-founding Partners for Justice, she explains why the criminal legal system often punishes instability rather than crime — and how policy choices, not individual morality, frequently determine who enters the system. The conversation explores burnout among defenders, systemic misconceptions about criminal courts, the role of compassion in policy reform, and the economic and social costs of incarceration. Ultimately, the episode reframes justice not as punishment, but as a question of public safety, community stability, and human dignity.

GAO found the Bureau of Prisons struggling with timely assessments and unreliable program data, making it harder to know whether incarcerated people are getting the programming the First Step Act requires. Add in delays applying earned time credits, and the whole recidivism‑reduction strategy wobbles.

In this conversation, Michael and Carol Evon Taylor discuss pressing social issues, particularly focusing on substance use disorders, mental health, and the impact of these issues on families and communities. Carol shares her journey from being a trial attorney to a family counselor, emphasizing the importance of understanding addiction as a disease rather than a moral failing. They explore the systemic failures in the criminal justice system, the need for comprehensive support and treatment programs, and the role of political activism in addressing these challenges. The discussion highlights the interconnectedness of social issues and the necessity for community engagement and empathy in fostering change.Carol transitioned from law to behavioral health due to personal experiences with addiction. Substance use disorders often have a multi-generational impact.The criminal justice system often criminalizes addiction instead of treating it as a health issue.Mental health issues are prevalent among those struggling with substance use disorders.Recidivism rates are high due to lack of support and treatment options.Understanding addiction as a disease can help families cope better.Political activism is crucial in addressing social issues.Community support plays a vital role in recovery and healing.Universal health care is essential for addressing addiction and mental health.Empathy and understanding are key to fostering change in society.Carol can be reached at: CaroltaylorforPA@gmail.com

Tom Vozzo came to Homeboy Industries in a moment when they needed his skills. Around 2012, the organization was facing a financial crunch, and Tom stepped up from Homeboy volunteer to CEO steering the company to financial stability. Working at Homeboy changed Tom as well. Writing in his book, ‘The Homeboy Way,' Tom said that after years of working with the poor, forgotten, and demonized people of our society, he came to learn that he didn't really know as much about life as he thought. Tom and the rest of the Homeboy team continue to support formerly gang-involved and previously incarcerated people, helping them redirect their lives and become contributing members of our community.  In doing so, they make a bold and critical statement: No life is disposable, no person is beneath society, no person cannot be better, and no person will not benefit from helping another person reach the potential of who they can be.

Stefan Molyneux digs into the incentives at play in a free market justice system, weighing the trade-offs between stopping crime and rehabilitating offenders. He points out how aiming to wipe out criminal behavior entirely isn't practical, and stresses the value of stepping in early. He argues for a system that uses the least punishment needed to actually help people turn things around, while considering the costs of locking folks up. Molyneux also touches on ways to encourage judges to hand down fair sentences, the problems with repeat offenses, and the past wrongs that many offenders have dealt with. He wraps up by pushing for more conversation about reforming justice.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Today from SDPB - the latest on new charges brought in connection to overdose deaths within prison walls and a look at a federal discrimination trial happening this week.

What if America tried to eliminate crime instead of just reacting to it? Not with slogans, but with staffing, technology, and strategy scaled to the problem. In this episode, Erik Torenberg speaks with Garrett Langley, founder and CEO of Flock Safety, and Ben Horowitz, cofounder of a16z, about what is happening in the cities that are trying. Flock now works with over 5,000 communities to detect crime, recover missing children, and close cases faster than ever. Ben has been closely involved in Las Vegas, where Flock technology, drones, and community policing have raised clearance rates while reducing use of force. They outline what a real national crime-reduction strategy could look like: solving the police staffing crisis, using intelligence to make policing safer, understanding why clearance rates have collapsed, and how public–private partnerships are filling gaps cities cannot. They also tackle the hard questions around privacy, criminal justice failures, and the hidden role of organized crime in everyday offenses. Timecodes: 0:00 — Introduction and the Cost of Crime1:09 — Technology, Privacy, and Trust in Policing1:22 — Eliminating Crime: A National Strategy2:54 — People: Staffing, Culture, and Recruitment8:45 — Products: Technology in Modern Policing9:41 — Policy: Accountability and Prosecution20:11 — Community Policing and Clearance Rates25:16 — Case Study: Las Vegas and Public-Private Partnerships32:00 — Criticisms, Privacy, and Trust35:23 — Economic Mobility, Safety, and Social Impact36:44 — Reform, Recidivism, and Alternative Approaches52:14 — Organized Crime and Policy Challenges54:32 — The Future of Policing: Intelligence and Precision57:24 — Success Stories and ConclusionResources: Follow Garrett on X: https://twitter.com/glangley Follow Ben on X: https://twitter.com/bhorowitz Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends! Find a16z on X: https://twitter.com/a16z Find a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16z Listen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYX Listen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711 Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

A bill that would redraw Indiana's congressional map to benefit Republicans was passed through committee Tuesday after hours of testimony. A push to redraw Indiana's congressional districts has divided Republicans in the solidly conservative state. Last year, Indiana froze enrollment for a program that helps low income families pay for child care and preschool, and the state has kept making cuts. More than 36 percent of people released from prison return within three years, according to the Indiana Department of Correction. Officials in Clark County, Indiana report drug overdose deaths so far this year are half what they were last fall. The City of Indianapolis says it's been hard at work making roads and trails safe after Monday night's snowfall.

When Des Moines hired Ian Andre Roberts to run Iowa's largest school district, nobody told the public he was under a final order of removal and here illegally. Now Maryland records show he was also listed as a registered Democrat voter, despite non-citizens being barred from federal elections. Todd unpacks how this happened, what it reveals about motor-voter auto registration, and why the Left keeps insisting our elections are “the most secure in history” anyway. Then we pivot to shocking crime data from Sweden, Oakland, and the U.S. Sentencing Commission showing that a tiny 0.1–1% of chronic violent offenders are driving a huge share of violent crime—and why real incarceration of repeat offenders still matters.

Katie Herzog breaks down Drink Your Way Sober: The Science-Based Method to Break Free from Alcohol and how naltrexone—used through the Sinclair Method—let her "drink" her way out of addiction after years of half-hearted AA attempts. She explains why rock bottom kept moving, why abstinence felt impossible, and how targeted medication can disrupt the endorphin loop that makes alcohol so compulsive. Plus: the laser focus on the magic word "affordability," and a Spiel about Michael Wolff's Epstein posturing.

October 27th, 2025:  The Holy Rosary - A Prayer for Dark Times; Recidivism

In this week's episode of Everyday Injustice, host David Greenwald speaks with Alissa Skog, a researcher at the California Policy Lab, about her team's new report on California's expansive re-sentencing policies and their impact on recidivism. Skog explains that California has gone further than most states in reviewing long sentences imposed under older laws, such as Proposition 36 and Proposition 47, and felony murder reform — all aimed at bringing past sentences in line with current standards. Skog highlights that many of those resentenced are older individuals who have served a decade or more behind bars. “Most people age out of crime,” she notes, pointing out that the data confirm this trend. For example, people resentenced under Proposition 36 had a three-year conviction rate of 25 percent, far below the statewide benchmark of 41 percent for all people released from state prison. For those resentenced under felony murder reform, only 10 percent were convicted within three years, with most new convictions being misdemeanors. The discussion underscores the humanitarian and fiscal logic of re-sentencing. Older incarcerated people, Skog adds, pose little public safety risk but high costs to the state. She cites nearly 15,000 people in California prisons who are over 50 and have served more than 15 years — a population that could be safely reviewed for release under new policies being considered by the Board of Parole Hearings. Greenwald and Skog conclude that California's experience offers a model for other states, showing that releasing long-incarcerated people can be both safe and just. “These are people that should get a review because generally they're a low risk,” Skog says, urging continued study and expansion of early review mechanisms across the system.

The Intrinsic Philosophy of Change Change from Within: We believe that the most enduring and meaningful transformations arise from the people most impacted—those who live within the system and carry its deepest insights. Embedded Transformation: Change is not an external imposition. It becomes intrinsic—woven into the identity of the individual, group, or organization. It's not just what they do differently; it's who they become. Unlocking Capacity: Our role is to help unlock the door to internal wisdom. When systems are open and safe enough to explore their own truths, remarkable growth becomes possible. Inside-Outside Strategy: This approach may take more time, but it yields outcomes that are more just, more fair, and more permanent. It's not about quick fixes—it's about cultivating sustainable evolution. Collaborative Discovery: We don't bring answers—we help uncover them. Our work is grounded in trust, curiosity, and the belief that every system holds the seeds of its own renewal.

The criminal justice system in the U.S. is, at its core, a healthcare issue, one that demands healing, not punishment. In this episode, Gregg Croteau, CEO of UTEC, shares how his organization helps justice-involved young adults escape cycles of violence and incarceration through education, employment, and unwavering support. Founded by young people in response to gang violence, UTEC now focuses on those aged 18–25, the group most at risk of returning to prison. Through social enterprises like mattress recycling and food services, participants are paid while also receiving therapy, childcare, coaching, and education. Gregg emphasizes the need for systemic change, including better mental health care, reentry support, and human connection, urging a more restorative approach to justice.

In this episode of Superpowers for Good, guest Kevin Shird shared a profound perspective on how mental health challenges contribute to poor decision-making and the cycle of incarceration. Kevin, a professor, author, and advocate, is no stranger to the justice system, having experienced it firsthand. Now, he's using his story to create a roadmap for change.Kevin explained that unresolved trauma often plays a central role in the repetitive cycles of poor choices many individuals make post-incarceration. “Poor choices are actually tied to unresolved trauma,” he stated, adding, “when trauma is unresolved, there's a propensity for continuing this hamster wheel of just poor choices after poor choices.” His insights shed light on a key issue: the need for better mental health care within prisons to address these deeply rooted issues before individuals reenter society.Kevin shared the heartbreaking story of a friend he met while incarcerated—a man who initially served a short sentence but, after his release, committed a double murder and now faces life in prison. The tragedy, Kevin emphasized, could have been prevented with better mental health support during his friend's incarceration. “Hurt people hurt people,” Kevin explained. “When people aren't well... sometimes their struggles land in our laps.”Kevin advocates for placing licensed clinical social workers inside prisons as a proactive solution. He pointed out that 95% of incarcerated individuals will eventually return to society, becoming our neighbors, coworkers, and community members. By providing mental health support behind prison walls, he believes we can reduce recidivism, enhance public safety, and foster healthier communities.This episode reinforced the urgent need for systemic reform to prioritize mental health care in the criminal justice system. Kevin's work, including his book A Life for a Life, serves as both a call to action and a source of hope. Through his advocacy, he's demonstrating how addressing trauma can transform lives and break cycles of harm.By highlighting these issues, Kevin reminded us that change is possible—and it starts with seeing the humanity in everyone.tl;dr:Kevin Shird shares how unresolved trauma drives recidivism and advocates for better mental health care.He highlights the importance of placing licensed social workers in prisons to support incarcerated individuals.Kevin recounts a tragic story to illustrate how unaddressed trauma leads to devastating consequences.He explains his superpower of authentic connection and how storytelling fosters healing and understanding.Kevin encourages vulnerability to build deeper relationships and drive meaningful change in the world.How to Develop Authentic Connection As a SuperpowerKevin Shird's superpower lies in his ability to authentically connect with people through storytelling. “I pride myself on just being able to build real relationships,” Kevin explained. He emphasized the importance of “removing the mask” to connect with others on a deeper, human level. By sharing his vulnerabilities and personal experiences, Kevin creates bonds that inspire healing and understanding. “Everybody has a story,” he said, reminding us that even when our struggles differ, they are all significant and worthy of empathy.Kevin recounted how sharing a vulnerable story about his father's alcoholism in his first book led to powerful connections with readers. Despite initial embarrassment, he wrote about his father's addiction, and the response was overwhelming. Readers reached out to share their own experiences with addicted family members, often in tears. This demonstrated how his authenticity in storytelling inspired others to confront and heal from their own struggles.Tips for Developing Authentic Connection:Remove the emotional “mask” and embrace vulnerability.Recognize that everyone has a story, even if it differs from yours.Focus on building genuine human connections by listening and empathizing.Use storytelling to create shared experiences and inspire others.By following Kevin's example and advice, you can make authentic connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
