This week on Behind The Lens, a court docket order final 12 months mandated some protections for incarcerated males at Angola who work the Farm Line for little or no compensation within the brutal summer season warmth. In response, state officers made few significant enhancements to circumstances. This summer season, newly instituted insurance policies might make issues even worse.

A number of weeks in the past The Lens launched “Working Capital” a brand new collection of articles targeted on Louisiana’s capital punishment program which has been restarted after 15 years of a court-ordered pause with the execution of Jesse Hoffman. 

Our company this week are Lens reporter Nick Chrastil and managing editor Katy Reckdahl.
