Frans Sital was just 17 years old when he was wrongfully convicted of two counts of murder and sentenced to 51 years to life. He ended up serving over 31 years behind bars before finally being released in August 2023. In this episode of Dog in the Yard, Frans shares his raw and emotional journey—from surviving the prison system to reclaiming his life and freedom.

Now home and fighting for others still trapped inside, Frans is deeply involved in the criminal justice and prison reform movement. He’s building his companies Finally Free and FSconsulting LLC, while also caring for his mother and helping others rebuild. His story is one of strength, redemption, and relentless purpose.

This is more than a prison story—it’s a blueprint for rebuilding your life and fighting back against injustice.
