32 years for robbery and there are pedophiles and murderers out on the streets after a couple of years. This is insane!

This dude talks as fast as my brain thinks when I'm trying to sleep at 2am.

32 year sentence? I've seen cases where someone killed a kid and got much less. O_o The justice system is all over the place.

It's great to see people talking about changing their lives and getting a second chance. True crime and prison are often dramatized by third parties –it's great to see it told from firsthand perspectives.

I love how this channel shows how prison can be a stepping stone to a person's true calling. If I hadnt been sentenced I would have died on the streets and never would have found the passions that allow me to be a productive member of society. i hope that someday I can help people that have fallen into the same path that I did. Strife and hard circumstances can forge diamonds. Thank you for your work and I look forward to future episodes.

People are arguing about how fast Jesse talks, and how it could be a regional... I'm from Scotland and it sounds perfectly normal to me 😂

Found your channel, now I’m just binge watching. Very very insightful and nice to see someone else acknowledge how crazy it is in the system.

They wanted to make an example out of him. And that's wrong. They all did the same crimes they should have been punished the same. Jesse didn't even try to strike a deal, he was taking full accountability for his actions. That's what's wrong with the system. It should be those that show remorse and take accountability, should be taken into consideration.
