Episode 13
Ray Coker is one of my best friends. When I got cancer, Ray was among the inner circle who nursed me back to health. We walked together once a week, helping and supporting each other through life’s challenges. Ray was the guy I asked to drive me to prison on the day I self-surrendered.
In this episode, Ray and Thad share the story of their journey to federal prison in Jesup, GA. Ray explains what it felt like to drop off his friend Thad to jail, and then recalls what it was like to visit him while incarcerated. This episode will help you to know Thad’s prison experience more personally and understand how we incarcerate people in the federal criminal justice system.
