Welcome to episode twenty one of HELL HAS AN EXIT Podcast with Bryan Alzate. On December 9, 1999, the body of a young woman was found in a forest preserve in Waukegan, Illinois. Two weeks later, police charged Jason Strong, an adult bookstore employee, with first-degree murder and concealing a homicide. For the next 15 years, Jason immersed himself in the prison’s library, studying law and writing letters to legal defense firms across the country. Jason describes his years at war with the system, the feeling of newly discovered evidence coming to light, and the experience of regaining freedom and being granted an exit from his personal hell.
