Prison Town
Evey Wilson Wetherbee and Jessica SzilagyiIn the midst of a federal investigation into Georgia's prisons for civil rights violations, we decided to use one prison in South Georgia as a case study. The things we found are chilling. An 88-year-old man is shot while he’s sleeping. Another man is murdered one county over. A woman is found dead in a mobile home park. And somehow they all link back to the same prison, illuminating many of the c... more

- Binge material
Absolutely riveting because you just get hooked at how crazy the story is and then you realize this is our prison system and you get mad.

Informative and engaging look at our prison system, and the challenges & failures that allow crimes to continue internally and reach out of the prison walls.
Audible5Amazon CustomerUnited States2 years ago - Frustrating and heartbreaking
This is such an informative podcast. Thank you for taking time to report on this tragedy. I think the statements about the pay is so timely. COs have to be adequately paid and the prisons must be staffed. I don’t blame the guards being afraid to step in. The system is broken. We all have to be concerned.
Apple Podcasts5DDPirateUnited States3 years ago - Captivating!
A complicated, convoluted story told in an organized and easy to follow manner. The saying “The truth is stranger then fiction” came to mind more then once while listening. Thank you both for all the hard work.
Apple Podcasts5IrishmoodbyeUnited States3 years ago - Walking the line
As a former CO of GDC I found this podcast to truthful and in a way nostalgic. If you’ve never been in that chaos, walked among the population it’s hard to grasp the daily goings on of the city behind the wire, but you did an excellent job.
