This week's episode is about discovering empathy in the top place where you wouldn't expect it: County Jail. David Crossland spent his entire working life within the walls of the Collin County Sherrif's Jail in North Texas. This setting has greatly influenced and caused him to grow as a person, as he's witnessed systemic change, the rise of incarceration, and the children visiting their parents go on to become inmates themselves. Becoming familiar with the cycles of crime and poverty, David sees the people behind bars as we all should - as human beings. We all make mistakes; some of us just get caught doing it. Can you think back to a moment of reckless decision-making that could have ended badly? The line between normal life versus ending up spending days, months, or even years behind bars is thinner than we think. Join us to hear the stories of society's most misunderstood, how David maintained the peace as a guard, and the mistakes law enforcement has made both inside and outside of these facilities.
