The youngest warden in Angola history at just 36 years old, he was renowned for his resilience during a harrowing kidnapping incident and his transformative leadership. Through prioritizing inmate work, security, and rehabilitation programs, Maggio reshaped Bloody Angola from a violent environment to a safer, disciplined prison. By implementing proactive security measures and emphasizing discipline, Maggio significantly reduced violent incidents and set a new standard for effective prison management.

We explore the tragic events surrounding Hillary Brown's death, due to alleged negligence and over-medication by her husband Dr. Benjamin Brown during procedures he performed on her at his office.
Through a series of disturbing accounts from former patients like Jane Hawkins, Joy Edwards, and Brandy Fitzsimmons, Jim uncovers a pattern of botched surgeries, complications, and negligence that tarnished Dr. Brown's reputation. 
Former employees, including Shannon Gerage and Deborah Brown Guy, reveal troubling details about Dr. Brown's declining behavior, unsafe practices, and lapses in patient care standards at his clinic. Reports of unauthorized procedures, medication mishandling, and unsterile conditions raise serious concerns about the quality of care provided to patients under Dr. Brown's supervision.
The investigation by the Florida Department of Health exposes a myriad of violations and risks posed by Dr. Brown's practices, shedding light on the dire consequences of his actions. From improper sterilization methods to medication misuse, the episode delves into the disturbing events that unfolded within Dr. Brown's clinic, painting a grim picture of the challenges faced by his patients.
The tragic events surrounding Hillary Brown's own procedure, culminating in her untimely death due to negligence and over-medication by Dr. Brown, serve as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of medical malpractice. The podcast unravels the harrowing sequence of events that led to her passing, underscoring the need for accountability and reform within the healthcare system to prevent similar tragedies in the future.Follow Exposed on Apple Podcast here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/exposed-scandalous-files-of-the-elite/id1727965835

In this episode of the Bloody Angola podcast, Jim Chapman and Woody Overton discuss Jon Barry Simonis, known as the ski mask rapist. Simonis confessed to 81 rapes nationwide and was linked to over 130 attacks in a 12-state crime spree between 1978 and 1981. Simonis's crimes led to the formation of the FBI's profiling task force. The FBI created a detailed profile of Simonis, including his physical description, behavior patterns, and tendencies, which matched his characteristics accurately.Simonis meticulously planned his crimes, evolving from burglary to sexual assaults and violence over time. He displayed domineering behavior, sought control and power over his victims, and enjoyed inflicting fear and pain. Simonis detailed his criminal activities in an interview with FBI profiler Roy Hazelwood, revealing his methods, motivations, and deviant fantasies. He admitted to escalating violence, seeking high-risk situations, and deriving satisfaction from dominating and terrorizing women.Simonis's intelligence, manipulative tactics, and strategic approach to his crimes revealed a disturbing insight into the mind of a serial rapist. The episode delves into Simonis's twisted psyche, his predatory behaviors, and his unrepentant attitude towards his heinous acts. Despite Simonis's eventual capture and lifelong imprisonment at bloody Angola prison, his chilling confessions shed light on the dark and sinister world of a prolific sexual predator.Timestamps02:36 Inside the Walls of Angola03:41 The Ski Mask Rapist06:02 FBI's Profiling Task Force07:39 The Progression of Crimes10:03 Creating the FBI Profile11:45 The Capture of John Simonis14:03 Comparing to the FBI Profile15:19 Simonis' Sentencing19:30 Simonis' Future in Prison21:13 Interview Techniques24:18 The Interview with John Simonis43:31 FBI's Study on Serial Killers44:55 Expansion to Profiling Sexual Crimes#podcast #crime #bloodyangola #prison #jonsimonis #skimaskedrapist Sponsor Deals!HelloFreshUse our link and get FREE APPETIZERS for life as long as your subscription is active.https://www.hellofresh.com/bloodyangolaapps

In this episode of Bloody Angola, Jim Chapman delves into the story of Wilbert Rideau, a prisoner with a remarkable journey. Rideau achieved significant accomplishments behind bars, winning prestigious journalism awards and making substantial reforms within the Angola prison. Chapman vividly describes Rideau's background, including his upbringing in Louisiana and his involvement in a fateful armed bank robbery in 1961. The detailed account of the robbery and its consequences on Rideau's life are presented, highlighting the tragic events that unfolded that night.
Chapman delves into Rideau's multiple trials, each resulting in a first-degree murder conviction and a death sentence. Despite Rideau's claims of panic and lack of premeditation, the courts repeatedly found him guilty. The emotional impact on the victims, especially Dora McCain, a surviving bank teller, is powerfully portrayed through their statements during Rideau's clemency hearings. The tension between Rideau's rehabilitation and the severity of his crime is a central theme throughout the episode.
The episode captures the complex emotions and moral dilemmas surrounding Rideau's case, including insights from journalists, D.A., and Rideau's mother. Despite his outstanding achievements in journalism and documentary filmmaking while in prison, Rideau faces the ongoing challenge of seeking clemency and ultimate release. The episode ends with a hint of a forthcoming episode, promising a continuation of Rideau's story and the surprising turns it takes.

In this episode of Bloody Angola, the podcast we delve into the life story of Wayne Felde, a troubled individual who was born in 1949 and grew up in a family with a history of military service. Wayne's father was abusive and struggled with alcoholism, which deeply impacted Wayne's upbringing. Wayne enlisted in the Army during the Vietnam War, hoping to become a war hero, but the harsh reality of the war quickly changed his perspective on conflict. He endured traumatic experiences in Vietnam, including exposure to Agent Orange, which had long-lasting detrimental effects on his health.
After returning from Vietnam, Wayne struggled with PTSD and alcoholism, leading to a series of tumultuous events in his life. Tragically, Wayne ended up in a confrontation where he unintentionally killed a friend due to a PTSD-induced episode. Subsequently, Wayne was involved in a fatal incident with a police officer, resulting in his arrest and imprisonment. Despite attempts to take his own life and a tumultuous legal battle, Wayne was sentenced to death and ultimately executed in the electric chair at Louisiana State Penitentiary on March 15, 1988, just days before his 39th birthday.
The podcast reflects on Wayne's complex life, the impact of war trauma on his actions, and the justice system's final verdict on his fate. The story highlights the complexities of PTSD, accountability for one's actions, and the tragic end that Wayne faced.

In todays episode we discuss the Louisiana Supreme Court decision called Montgomery v. Louisiana, which involved Henry Montgomery, the longest-serving convict in Angola Prison's history. Henry was released in 2021 after spending 57 years behind bars. We start with the events of November 13th, 1963, when Officer Hurt encountered Henry at a park which led to the murder of the officer. The community goes into lockdown, and Montgomery is eventually found, confesses to the shooting, and is convicted of first-degree murder. Despite initially receiving a death sentence, he is later granted a new trial, resulting in a life sentence. The 2010 case Graham v.
