Halfway House. Prison without Bars
Description
This episode of Investigative Reports examines Garrett House, a Camden, New Jersey, halfway house run by Volunteers of America. This facility exclusively serves violent offenders who are hoping that this will be their last step before being granted parole. Although still technically inmates supervised by the State Department of Corrections, they are allowed to work in the community and begin to re-integrate into society. This program explores the world of the 47 men who live at Garrett House and specifically follows the case of a convicted murderer. At the end of the program, we learn his fate before the parole board.
