Guarding the Truth: Wardens Speak Out on Abuse and Corruption

In this gripping episode, Tom and Denny, former wardens at USP Thompson—a high-security federal prison—share their harrowing experiences working in an environment plagued by corruption and violence. This conversation is sparked by the case of Jimmy, a former defendant represented by Justin Yentes, who was subjected to cruel and unusual punishment while incarcerated at the Bureau of Prisons. His case, like several others, exposes shocking abuses by correctional officers. In an effort to evade accountability, some staff members even enlisted inmates to attack the wardens at USP Thompson. Despite these revelations, lawmakers and the BOP administration have not held the violators accountable for their actions. Tom and Denny provide an unflinching look at the systemic failures and the persistent lack of resolution that allow these injustices to continue, courageously shedding light on a broken system desperately in need of fundamental change.
