In the early 1990s, Mike DiVicino was convicted of a string of robberies and kidnappings in Los Angeles. He was subsequently given three consecutive life sentences. Behind bars, Mike began collecting heartfelt letters from his fellow inmates to centre at-risk youth, giving them insight into how the choices they make today can have dire consequences in the future.



Mike was released in 2019 after serving 29 years. In today's Unfiltered conversation, he speaks candidly about his life and reminds us that people are redeemable.
