The Neville Brothers, The Injured Pelican and Butlers Park

In this episode of Bloody Angola, we begin with a story on "Butler's Park," highlighting the Outdoor Visiting Program that enhances inmate well-being and fosters family connections in a serene park setting.

We then delve into the heartwarming story of the "Pelican Protector," showcasing the establishment of the John B. Rabalais Waterfowl Refuge and a collaborative rescue of an injured pelican, cared for by the inmates and conclude with the exhilarating account of a concert featuring the Neville Brothers, capturing the uplifting power of music to unite and inspire hope within the prison walls. These stories are the direct accounts of the writings of Wilbert Rideau in the book “Life sentences”.
