It’s an explosive, gripping narrative you need to hear. Next up, we have a trailer just for you. Take a listen, take it in, and then find and follow On Our Watch wherever you’re listening to this right now. The Dangerous Prison Job: A Promise and a New Family

[0:43] You’re going to want to hear the whole story. He wanted to be an investigator. He said it was the most dangerous prison in California. Each day, people step inside prison walls, not to serve a sentence, but to do a job. I, state your name, recognize the badge of my office.

Welcome to the family. Broken Promises and the Dark Reality Behind the Walls

[1:27] But once behind the walls, those promises are hard to keep. He texted, I sold my pride for the job, and it wasn’t worth it.

To live under that kind of fear, I can’t explain to you. Lives hang in the balance. They just really don’t give a fuck. They don’t care about my life. They don’t care about helping me. Did you hear that he had died? No. Yeah, I’m really sorry to be telling you that. That’s foul play. Foul play, honestly. Two Men Who Defied the Brotherhood’s Unwritten Code

[2:12] This is a story about two men who defied the unwritten code that binds that brotherhood together. Everything about this case just raises questions. Why was he banned from this institution?
