David joined the staff in 2003, just so he could get involved. He

just stuck around! He can now be heard chatting with Ray from time to
time and filling in for him when needed. |

Ann Staggs · Telephone Coordinator
Ann came to The Prison Show a little over ten years ago to get married.
She had been a nurse in a Texas prison and fell in love. She lost her
job, was denied visitation and came looking for help. We had the proxy
wedding on the air, with Ray standing in for Charles in the studio
while Charles and his friends gathered around the radio to celebrate
the occassion in prison. |
