Time On The Inside   Donna Ann Smith-Marshall   Behind The Walls In A Maximum Security Women’s Prison From An Insider’s View Autobiography Donna takes you vividly behind the walls of the United States largest Women’s Penitentiary, Central California Women’s Facility, where she spent 2 ½  years. She had a short stay at Sybil Brand Institute, formerly the largest women’s jail in California. You will learn why the Penal System promotes comfort ability versus rehabilitation. You will finally know the truth about those who are incarcerated. The reality is contrary to popular belief, which is driven by media propaganda, that most inmates are hardcore and violent criminals. This is far from the truth. Those behind walls for the most have committed non-violent to petty crimes. You will find compassion in your heart after reading Donna’s story and you will want to do something about the present conditions in the prison system.
