In this explosive episode we interview Cadmus Publishing owner, Ken Passaro, as he shares his remarkable story and how he ended up in the publishing business. A product of a broken home, fatherless, and struggling with traumas Ken found himself piped into prison just like millions of other Americans. While in prison his labor was exploited and wages stolen, treatment and educational options were practically nonexistent, he was surrounded by violence and guard brutality, and he was released in severe poverty. Which is essentially the story of millions of fellow troubled Americans. Unlike masses of other released prisoners Ken self-rehabilitated himself. Striving arduously to discover true peace, productivity, and happiness despite mass incarceration's deep adverse impact on his life. Finding his Higher Power was the key to his redemption. Now he is dedicated to freeing the voices of prisoner authors. Unleashing the untapped potential of our troubled people so that their words can break stereotypes and disrupt the evil mass incarceration system.
Co-host, Daniel J. Simms, Petition for Resentencing filed with Leesa Manion, the King County Prosecutor, is still pending. Daniel has been incarcerated since February 2006 for a botched drug deal (See: State of Washington v. Daniel J. Simms). No one was severely hurt. No one was murdered. No one was sexually assaulted. Yet Daniel is being murdered by the State with an egregiously long sentence. Daniel's rehabilitation is beyond extraordinary, with three published books, a podcast, blog, and countless certificates including as a Certified Paralegal, the ends of justice would be best served mercifully freeing him. That is why Daniel direly needs advocates and supporters to lobby Leesa Manion's Office for Resentencing. Please contact DefundDOC.net to help, or contact the King County Prosecutor's Office directly at www.KingCountyProsecutorOffice.gov/LeesaManion. Thank you.
