Stephen Richards on Radio Commentary Tonight

Last February the Legislative Audit Bureau released a report revealing that in the previous fall 40 felons were employed at the UW System. Republican State Representative Scott Suder, a member of a felon breeding legislative body (yesterday and today) and who has his own checkered employment history, led the shrill attack against the UW.

Tonight on Radio Commentary (6:20 - 7:00 p.m., WRST 90.3 FM) I'll be talking to UW Oshkosh Criminal Justice professor Stephen Richards. He spemt nine years in federal prisons on a drug conviction. Lake Winneblogo wonders if the legislative idiots object to having someone like Richards in the UW System.

Stephen Richards has authored (with Jeffrey Ian Ross) Behind Bars and Convict Criminology.
