Top Of Mind With Julie Rose

Bobby Love’s story is amazing. Love escaped prison, raised a family, and lived trouble-free for over 40 years. But he probably wouldn’t have been able to do that so well, if he hadn't completely changed his identity after the escape. He had no parole requirements to trip him up, no criminal record shaping where he could live or work. In this episode, we consider how the US justice system makes it difficult for people convicted of crimes to rebuild their lives after prison. And we'll explore some solutions.
