With advocates across the state clamoring for parole reform, Maryland's legislature has the opportunity to address the state's soul-crushing parole system this legislative session. Al Brown and Tyrone Litte, who each served decades in Maryland's prison system, join Rattling the Bars to share their firsthand experiences with the parole system.
