When pushed about why his attention focused on the men in prison rather than upon the victims, Cash once said, “People say, ‘well what about the victims, the people that suffer—you’re always talking about the prisoners: what about the victims?’ Well, the point I want to make is that’s what I’ve always been concerned about—the victims. If we make better men out of the men in prison, then we’ve got less crime on the streets, and my family and yours is safer when they come out.”[2]
