Nearly one in five state prisoners in Massachusetts go directly from maximum security to the street (youtu.be)

On average, nearly 300 people every year are released directly from Massachusetts' maximum-security prison, directly onto the street with no guidance or support from the state. Often, they end up right back in prison. That cycle is the focus of a new report from GBH News's series, "Life After Prison." Deputy Investigative Editor Jenifer McKim, who reported the story, joined Tori Bedford to discuss, along with Mac Hudson, community liaison coordinator for Prisoners Legal Services of Massachusetts.
