Locked In with Ian Bick

I Was a U.S. Marine — Then I Went to Prison | Anthony Lopez


Listen Later

Anthony Lopez grew up in the South Bronx, where street life was everywhere. His mom pushed him to join the U.S. Marines to escape the cycle — and he went on to serve in Iraq. But one mistake changed everything. After being caught with a gun off base, Anthony was discharged from the military and sent straight to Rikers Island, eventually serving time in New York State Prison.
