SEASON PREMIER Florence ADMAX Nov 08, 2021

Show notes

"DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK!" Your friends at the Combine have been quietly planning for the future and putting in major work since last summer. Needless to say, we have had an eventful couple of months since our last podcast. We lost some community members this year and we have made some major accomplishments. We will shares throughout season 3 of the podcast so stay tuned for new and exciting developments from the home team. In our season 3 premier episode we talk to Ken, Mali, and Phill about the United States Penitentiary, Administrative Maximum Facility, a federal prison in Fremont County near Florence, Colorado. This facility is best known for housing inmates who have been deemed too dangerous, too high-profile, or too great a security risk for a maximum-security prison. Think terrorists and cartel leaders. ADMAX prisoners are confined 23 hours per day in single cells with facilities made of poured, reinforced concrete to deter self-harm, and are under 24-hour supervision, carried out intensively with high staff–inmate ratios.
