Axes, Escapes, and the Upper Peninsula: MDOC Series (Part 2 of 5)
Where you gonna go? Snow tunnels, murder gnats, and escaping the UP.
From testosterone earrings to the ‘ax-wielding’ inmates of the Upper Peninsula, the second installment of the MDOC series takes a turn into the surreal. Sophia and Sandra recount the details of their father’s second prison stint, the bizarrely ‘relaxed’ environment of a camp on the shores of Lake Superior, and the time-honored family tradition of being banned from a local Pizza Hut. It’s a deep dive into the legal system, family lore, and the survival skills required for a Michigan winter.
