AN EYE FOR AN EYE — A special edition of Yesterday’s News exploring the criminal justice system at its most extreme: Inflicting the Death Penalty…
The Trial Of The Big Beef Sextet

Rather, it’s the story of a pack of Folsom prisoners carrying out a long-laid plan to make a big break from the big house. Needless to say, it doesn’t end particularly well for any of them when two guards and ten prisoners meet their deaths as a result.
