Married couple, Christopher and Jamie, are foundational figures in the lovable Mini-Bullies industry. Founding the purposeful business, Americas Notoriouz Exoticz, a leading cutting edge breeder of designer mini-bullies. Yet what many do not know is that Christopher has been incarcerated for decades. And that he is completely innocent. A product of poverty, a troubled childhood, and pervasive gang culture, Christopher had the decks stacked against him. But it was a defective Public Defender, a overzealous Prosecutor, and prejudiced Judge that ultimately failed him. Leading to a innocent man pleading guilty, a National phenomenon plaguing our criminal-justice system, and a cruelly long slow death sentence. Nevertheless Christopher’s story was not finished. He found Jamie, and together they share how their love has persevered through the adversity and trauma of injustice and imprisonment. A true compelling journey that will wrench on your heartstrings. Exposing the corrupt U.S. mass incarceration system as a cold relic of injustice and enslavement. Revealing how the deep love and commitment by a married man and woman can surmount even the high walls of imprisonment.

In this explosive episode, Melissa Eberling, A Warrior Within Us Project, blows the whistle on the heartbreaking atrocious conditions at the Red Onion State Prison in Virginia. This alarming true story unveils the horrible conditions prisoners endure. The current corrupt D.O.C. slavery and exploitation scheme imposed upon our troubled sons and daughters is appalling. Prisoners are suffering human rights violations that will traumatize them for life. In a prosperous civilized Nation such as the U.S. it should be a Crime Against Humanity to impose cruel prison conditions on our fellow Americans. At Red Onion State Prison the depravity is on full display. Voiceless prisoners are systemically tortured with long solitary confinement stints. While the prison mainline is deprived of scarce resources which inevitably leads to prisoner on prisoner violence. The Guards are trained to treat our countrymen brutally as animals. Imbuing deep prejudices in the Guards to ensure they treat prisoners horribly. Listen in to this remarkable episode!

Larry Jefferson, the Director of the State of Washington Office of Public Defense, grew up in a domestic violence home. Ultimately his mother escaped the abuse and embarked on a collegiate life. She included Larry in the journey for knowledge. Sparking Larry's thirst for education and eventually his pursuit of a law degree. Upon passing the Bar and entering the legal field Larry found a passion for defending disadvantaged Americans against the vast resources of the government. Coming to discern the considerable inequities and injustices facing minorities, the impoverished, and the mentally disordered. That discernment inspired Larry to reach the highest Office for Public Defenders and to implement reforms. One of his most notable reforms was to require Public Defenders to acquire historical information on each Client. Such a reasonable requirement ensures Clients root causes are ascertained and addressed. Additionally the background information enabled Public Defenders to present a holistic report on the childhood, cultural, or environmental traumas that led the Offender to the Courtroom. Prior to this reform the prosecution had an unfettered monopoly on Offender's narrative. Taking the truth and facts back for the benefit of troubled Americans is the first step to humanizing our people. Offering mitigation to explain how the past traumas manifested into the current bad criminal decisions. This revolutionary reform for thoroughness did not occur until Larry pushed for the policy. Larry imparted many more ideas and solutions, such as restorative justice, and other alternatives to mass incarceration. This is a very important episode for anyone interested in justice, fairness, or solutions on a better future for the American people. Foremost is ending the failed "hard-on-crime" ideologies, ushering in an effective "smart-on-crime" paradigm shift, that focuses on rehabilitation, restoration, and reentry. The United States needs more fierce advocates like Larry. His passion is easily discernable. This open and frank conversation will open your eyes to the plague of mass incarceration and the new innovative solutions to obtain true justice for all parties.

Victor Gonzalez cousin killed a man. They then decapitated, and fed his victim to pigs on a farm in Oregon. The man had tried to rob and potentially murder Victor so he acted in self-defense. This compelling and provocative story will reveal the traumatic events that led to Victor's life of crime and imprisonment. Demonstrating the great need for treatment of root causes and higher educational career trainings. Each stage of the juvenile and adult criminal-justice system failed Victor and society. The system has an adverse incentive to incarcerate more Americans for longer sentences. Slavery has been a plague on society since the founding of the Nation. Now slavery has infested every level of criminal-justice policy and it needs to be disrupted. Victor's harrowing true story of severe childhood trauma, foster care, and juvenile institutions will shock you. Laying the corrupt trauma-to-prison pipeline bare for all to see. The system had ample time and opportunity to rehabilitate Victor yet failed him and society. Focusing on stealing Victor's slave labor rather than restoration. Ultimately the desensitization to violence from childhood to the criminal-justice system led to a brutal killing. Thankfully Victor chose to refocus his priorities by self-rehabilitating himself. Now Victor is on a mission to prevent future generations from enduring the horrors he suffered. His podcast, Resilient Minds, seeks to illustrate the power of our minds, the absolute failure of the current mass incarceration system, solutions on how to reform it, and stories meant to educate others on many varying topics. Please join us as we delve into this bloody horrific tale that ends with Victor becoming civic treasure.
