The Word on the Yard: Stories from D.O.C. #166054

by Zoë Jennings, David Suro

From chiropractor to inmate…One night changed Dave Suro's life forever from a law-abiding life as a chiropractor and city commissioner to a convicted felon. Now, after serving a five-year prison sentence, Dave shares the stories from his incarcerated life. Though unavoidably grim at times, Dave's overall prison experience was generally positive. Upon release, Dave came away with life-long friends and a renewed sense of faith. From offering chiropractic adjustments in his cell to reading letters to illiterate inmates, Dave built a community in every cell-away-from-home he stayed in. The Word on the Yard shines a lighthearted view on Dave's and other prisoner's experiences while also offering a commentary on the inevitable and unjust realities of life in prison.

Good read for someone before they fall to criminal ideas. Some of the issues always have a choice, good choices work.
