About this listen

You can support Johnnie Veal's re-entry to life @ payit2.com (search "Johnnie Veal").  In 1969 at age 17, Johnnie Veal (aka Khalif) was rounded up along with 200 other suspects from Chicago projects for the shooting of two police officers.  He was playing baseball at the time, but nevertheless found himself facing 199 years in prison.  Going There's Tara McCoy got to know Johnnie in 2018 doing volunteer work with prisoners in the Illinois State System.  This is Khalif's story in his own words.  Be sure to listen to the conclusion in Episode 4.  View a Closed Caption edition of the episode here.
