101: Transforming Prisons: Innovation and Rehabilitation in Belize - Interview w/Dr. Jarrod Sadulski
The Prison Officer Podcast
Discover the transformative world of Central American prisons with Dr. Jarrod Sadulski, whose journey from the Coast Guard to criminology and federal law enforcement has led him to the heart of prison reform in Belize. As we navigate through his insights, you'll uncover the stark realities and surprising successes within the Belize Central Prison, a place where innovation in rehabilitation starkly contrasts with the turmoil often seen in neighboring countries' facilities. This episode promises an eye-opening look at how effective management and minimal resources are reshaping the lives of inmates through coexistence and self-sustainability.
Travel inside the Belize Central Prison, where harsh conditions meet groundbreaking rehabilitation efforts. From the Ashcroft Rehabilitation Program to the management strategies that emphasize peaceful coexistence among gang members, we explore the unique approaches that have led to impressively low recidivism rates. Despite the limited budget of just $9 per day per inmate, the focus on life skills and trade training is remarkable. Listen as Dr. Sadulski shares his firsthand experience of witnessing inmates working freely with machetes, challenging perceptions of prison life and offering a new perspective on the potential for redemption and reintegration.
