In prison, the term hard time can mean many different things. It can be an inmate who will never see freedom again. Or an inmate whos doing solitary confinement for years at a time. Our crews have seen numerous examples of what its like to do hard time. But theres one story in particular that seems like it came straight out of a movie.

California state prison, corcoran, home to hundreds of the states most violent and infamous offenders. Hosted lockup crews in both 2000 and 2005. Right before i walked in, i had to sign a document that kind of really made me think twice.
