Criminal Minded Vol I

You spent 15 years in the system. What was the moment you realized the system wasn't designed to rehabilitate you?" "It wasn't one moment—it was a thousand small ones. But if I had to pick, it was watching rehabilitation programs get defunded while prison industries made millions off our labor. We made furniture, license plates, and products for pennies an hour while corporations profited. Meanwhile, the GED program had a two-year waiting list. The message was clear: your labor has value, but your future doesn't. That's when I understood—this isn't about rehabilitation. It's about profit."
