In this episode, I examine the ethical standards of the Washington Department of Corrections (WADOC). WADOC returned my mail, denied my visitation, blocked my phone, and terminated my e-messaging accounts without following the rule of law or adhering to WADOC policy.

I have discovered some areas in which the state government is weak. Its citizens can keep the DOC (Department of Corrections) accountable. The incarcerated population, along with their supportive relationships, social media, and the news media, should fight for the rights of both their loved ones and people in prison whenever the DOC rejects the rule of law and does not follow their own policy.
In this episode, I examine the Department of Corrections' efforts regarding the introduction of contraband into DOC facilities. Contraband can be brought in by visitors, staff, contractors, and inmates. Despite the DOC's claims of attempting to eliminate contraband, the issue persists, posing risks to both incarcerated individuals and the public. The department must collaborate with the community to address this epidemic and create a safer environment for inmates.
In this episode, I examine the lack of support inmates receive under the care of Department of Corrections personnel. Despite their claims, the DOC does not appear to prioritize the safety and security of inmates. Placing biological males and females in the same cell, poisoning inmates, and placing a convicted rapist in the same cell as a family member of one of his victims is reckless. DOC management needs to monitor the actions of facility officials more closely.
