Life in a Supermax Prison

This is Randall Via
I’m serving 1,214 years for capital murder, originally at Red Onion State Prison, now at Wallens Ridge State Prison, Big Stone Gap, Virginia. I am in prison, for sure, but I’m not a prisoner. I’ve learned how to be free, even here on the inside. In my podcast, I’ll tell you how you can change for the better too, in prison or not. Along the way, I plan to give you an insider’s view of a supermax, and hope to entertain you too.
Listen to my podcast and send me your comments and questions. I’ll try to respond in an upcoming episode. You can also check out my Twitter @redonionrandy
