From Prison to Advocate | Birmingham News
Description
After 27 years behind bars and a life sentence overturned in 2021, 75-year-old Alonzo Hurth walked free — and didn’t just celebrate his freedom. He’s now volunteering inside prison walls, sharing hope with incarcerated men who’ve been told they’re doomed. With the help of legal advocates and nonprofits, Hurth turned his own painful journey into a mission: guiding others through reentry with real resources — housing, jobs, transportation — so they don’t just survive release, but thrive. His story proves that even after decades locked away, you can still be the light for those still behind bars.
