;new advadsCfpAd( 35245 ); Joining us tonight in conversation is former California prison guard D.J. Vodicka who blew the whistle on what he called rouge prison guards detailed in his book, The Green Wall: The Story Of A Brave Prison Guard’S Fight Against Corruption Inside The United States’ Largest Prison System. Mr. Vodicka spent 16 years as a decorated guard and was part of the Investigative Services Unit (Internal Affairs), responsible for solving crimes that occur inside the prison. Vodicka gave testimony at a California Senate hearing on the issue which led to reforms and resignations of officials. Vodicka's story is one about having the courage to stand up for what's right even though it seems everyone around you insists on doing wrong.
