This is the first episode of Money in Mass Incarceration. The purpose of this podcast is to answer our research question, How do state monetary budget policies and for-profit systems affect mass incarceration in Washington state?, for our ENGL 102 class. In this episode, we aim to discover the profits that private companies make from the criminal justice system and the WA state budget's spending on the prison system. Here's the source we're talking about in the episode:
