California Transformed Prisons to the ‘Norway Model,’ Insiders Reveal the Deadly Cost

LOS ANGELES—Prison reforms in California aimed at rehabilitation and release are a ticking time bomb, according to current and formerly incarcerated individuals, whistleblowers, active and retired correctional officers, and other staff who spoke to The Epoch Times.
