Clean and Sober: Can Addiction Be A Defense In a Criminal Proceeding ( Round Table)
Adolescent mistake leads to 32 years in prison. Now he’s released and making a difference!
Our guest on today’s show grew up in a family of heroin addicted parents which set him on a course of criminal behavior which led him to commit an accidental homicide as a juvenile. He was sentenced to life in prison for first degree murder. After a Supreme Court ruling in 2012 that banned life to juvenile offenders, Vernon Steed was set free after 32 years in 2018. During his incarceration, Vernon completed many programs as a model inmate and continues today to help those in re-entry programs lead productive lives…………….yes, we all need a second chance.
We appreciate all of the support that we receive from our viewing and listening audience and most importantly remember, there is help out there!
