California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced that San Quentin State Prison will transition into a “rehabilitation” center for the California prison system, transitioning to a service-oriented site that focuses on prisoners who are spending their final time incarcerated before being freed. Meanwhile, current long term prisoners there will be transferred away to other prisons – likely sites that have fewer services for the people living in their cages. We speak with Tim Kornegay, the Director of the Live Free California Coalition.
