514 | How the Prison System fails to Offer Second Chances w/Jesse Crosson

In this episode, Hunter speaks with Jesse Crosson about his book The Best Part of Prison: The Power of Second Chances and Reclaiming Life Out of Darkness. Jesse spent nearly 20 years incarcerated for a robbery and non-fatal shooting. Now, he is describing his journey through the legal system, how he was able to get back on his feet, and how our current approach to giving people a second chance is woefully failing.  Guest: Jesse Crosson, Author, The Best Part of Prison: The Power of Second Chances and Reclaiming Life Out of Darkness   Resource: Pick up a Copy of the Book Here https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Best-Part-of-Prison/Jesse-Crosson/9781637748015?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=24186787124&gbraid=0AAAAADv-uEl7dSEWJK_Ld-ZgXzL0srEzj&gclid=Cj0KCQjwteTUBhD4ARIsAEYjs3pEPvLQ3xUroeMHBqjQl7-Z91iaFe5lplMmTHpV98KW6kEJq3yp3ZAaAgNwEALw_wcB   Follow Jesse Here https://www.instagram.com/second_chancer434/?hl=en https://jessecrosson.com/   Contact Hunter Parnell:      Contact Hunter Parnell:  [email protected]  Instagram: @PublicDefenselessPodcast  YouTube: @publicdefenselesspodcast  Facebook: Public Defenseless Podcast  Bluesky: @pdefenselesspod.bsky.social  Twitter: @PDefenselessPod  Website: www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patreon: www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe: https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?
