What is it really like to work inside prisons, police departments, and the criminal justice system?
Former law enforcement officer and correctional officer Andrew Skoklo, an investigator at Combs Waterkotte Law Firm, sits down to talk about the side of crime, prison, and policing most people never see.
From dealing with dangerous inmates and learning the unwritten rules of prison to police culture, criminal behavior, manipulation, and the moments that stay with you long after the job is over, Andrew shares stories and lessons from a career spent on the inside.
We also cover how working around criminals changes the way you read people, what movies get completely wrong about prison, the mistakes new inmates make, and the reality of wearing a badge when nobody else is watching.
Crime. Prison. Police. This is what it looks like from someone who actually lived it.
