In this episode Steve and Ken interview retired Lieutenant Charles Garnder of the New York State Department of Corrections. Charles talks about his career as a corrections officer and gives a detailed account of the now infamous Dannemora prison break.
Charles A. Gardner spent twenty-five years in the corrections profession in Northern New York, and began his training at Clinton Correctional Facility – also known as Dannemora. He trained other corrections officers and watching the slow transformation of the prison system. His acclaimed book DANNEMORA: Two Escaped Killers, Three Weeks of Terror, and the Largest Manhunt Ever in Upstate New York (PB / March 2020) is a study of the now-infamous prison break (recently dramatically realized in the series Dannemora) which he illustrates in his hit book.
