Between The Lines: The Pod' With Ivana Rojas
by Between The Lines Enterprises LLC
Hosted by Ivana Rojas, Between The Lines takes audiences behind the walls of the correctional facilities for a raw and unfiltered look at the true duality of human nature. We sit down directly with individuals serving time for severe offenses to uncover a profound reality, introducing you to some of the most deeply introspective minds you will ever hear. By sharing these untold stories of accountability and survival, we prove that genuine rehabilitation is possible and that a person is always more than their worst mistake. This podcast is not just an interview show; it is a blueprint for overcoming massive odds and a community for anyone fighting to rebuild their life from rock bottom. It is time to take the pen back, change the narrative, and read between the lines.

#13 - He Was Convicted of 6 Murders… Then He Held His Daughter
Sonny Bui is serving life without the possibility of parole after being convicted of six murders and eight attempted murders. In this episode of Between the Lines, he opens up about coming to the United States from Vietnam, growing up in California, joining the Asian Boys gang at 14, and how violence became part of his identity. But after decades in prison, Sonny reflects on the pain he caused, the families impacted by his crimes, and the moment that began to change him: seeing his daughter for the first time. He shares what rehabilitation, remorse, and accountability look like from behind prison walls, and why he believes people should not be defined forever by their worst decision.
