I Build Prisons… The Truth About Alcatraz, Rikers & Maximum Security | Don Halloran

Don Halloran, President of Folger Adams, joins Locked In with Ian Bick to break down the systems that keep prisons running from the inside out. In this episode, we dive into everything from repairing cells at Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary and why it’s unlikely to ever reopen due to extreme costs and infrastructure challenges, to the ongoing shutdown of Rikers Island and what’s replacing it. Don explains how modern prison cells are built, including solitary confinement units, high-security locking systems, and the technology that controls every door in a facility. We also get into the different types of prison locks, how lockdowns actually work, and what it takes to maintain security inside some of the most dangerous environments in the country. _____________________________________________ #PrisonLife #PrisonCells #TrueCrime #PrisonSystem #BehindBars #PrisonSecrets #SecuritySystems #lockedinpodcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Don Halloran: https://www.southernfolger.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Inside How Prisons Are Built (Full Story) 01:56 Entering the Prison Industry & First Jobs 05:52 Owning a Prison Business & Industry Changes 10:16 First Time Inside a Prison Facility 13:16 Prison Construction Boom & Market Trends 17:16 How Prison Cells Are Built & Installed 22:00 Prison Design: Security, Safety & Contraband Prevention 27:00 Solitary Confinement & Effects on Inmates 30:32 International Prisons vs U.S. Prisons 34:32 Prison Escapes, Maintenance & Cell Security 41:36 Alcatraz Stories & Reopening Challenges 46:01 Modern Prison Tech & Rehabilitation Efforts 52:01 Keys, Locks & Prison Security Systems 56:00 Personal Stories from Inside the Industry 01:00:00 Prison Living Conditions: Heat, Space & Reality _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.
