In this episode, I speak with Commissioner William Marshall and get an inside look at the West Virginia Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.  We learn about his path from State Police to Corrections Commissioner.  We discuss the department's evolution into more training, enhanced career paths, and the future of corrections. 

We also discuss the West Virginia Department of Corrections rebranding initiatives, which include a new logo and enhanced public relations. These efforts signify a fresh commitment to the community and the department's visibility.

As we explore the department's history and future, we learn about the legacy of the annual Mock Riot event, hosted in West Virginia, which is a cornerstone for training and networking among correctional professionals. It's not merely an event, but a congregation of experts from across the globe, where real-world scenarios are simulated, strategies are exchanged, and camaraderie is built. The Mock Riot stands as a testament to the relentless pursuit of excellence and preparedness in the field.
