Following this episode of Jaguar Pride, Hrycaj documented “The Exonerated” dramaturgy or theater workshop which featured two special guests discussing their experience being formerly incarcerated. This special documentary features James “Jimmy” Soto and Gerald Branch-Bey discussing their experiences of incarceration and subsequently being freed.
