Episode Details

Bonnie Jane Hall is the author of "Reaching the Shore--A Story of survival, Courage and Endurance" along with contributions from her son Devon Jake Douma. This is one story of the juvenile justice system, a story of family, of the typical challenges, and a stark view into prison walls. I feel we can say the penal system if not broken, has many cracks. Devon's experiences told directly give us these insights. As a result of Devon's incarceration Bonnie founded Mothers for Prison Reform. As of 2013 the US had the highest incarceration rate in the world. www.bonniejanehall.com
