The Binge.
Feed your true crime obsession.
an old adage, a journalist has never met a guilty prisoner.
It refers to the fact that most prisoners go to great lengths to convince reporters of their wrongful incarceration.
But it also refers to the fact that most journalists are trying to make an argument about our crooked criminal legal system.
And the only way we can think to do it is by talking about entirely innocent people.
But why do you need to tell the stories of the innocent to show that the system is corrupt?
What does someone like Quinetta deserve?
What do the women around her deserve?
I would argue, nothing like what I heard on this last call with Quinetta.
Nothing like what the state of Texas does in the dark corners of its prisons or behind the scenes in its courtrooms.
Quinetta's personal failings don't negate the larger truths at play here.
Truths that expose our system for being murky, cruel, punitive, and full of people who have had so much bad done to them, and who, for the most part, then also did bad.
Quinetta was being held in a place where the windows were nailed shut, where there was no air conditioning, where temperatures hit 127 degrees and people died of the heat.
Everything smelled like raw sewage.
People were breaking down.
One woman spent all day singing, another screaming, another cutting herself.
