Thanks for listening to the Frontline Audiocast, the enhanced audio version of our documentaries.

We also produce a podcast, The Frontline Dispatch, available wherever you get your podcasts.

Right now, here is the audio cast of two short films.

The first is called Two Strikes, examining the impact of the Two Strikes Law.

The second film is the award-winning Tut Wiler, a window into the lives of incarcerated

pregnant women.

Now, from Frontline and the Marshall Project, two stories from inside the prison system.

First, a little known Two Strikes Law.

For one of my rest four doubts, you've been incarcerated three years or less prior and

they decide to enact a statute you're automatically sentenced to the statutory maximum.

They gave me life in prison.

An association with firelight media.

Two strikes in your out, if you will.

The system had to change.

These little had to change.

Two strikes, and later, the experience of pregnant women in prison.

We have between 45 to 50 pregnant women in and out of Tut Wiler in a year's time.

Common saying, being incarcerated as I came in here by myself, I'm going to leave by myself.

We all had little riders with us.

And what happens to their newborns?

Can you hear your baby spend time with him or her?

And it's over, just like the hardest thing that ever happened in the world.
