"'Some guys don't break any rules. They do their jobs, they go to school, they don't commit any infractions, they keep their cells clean and tidy, and they follow the rules. And usually those are our LWOPs [life without parole]. They're usually our easiest keepers.' Too Easy to Keep provides directs much-needed attention toward a neglected group of American prisoners--the large and growing population of those inmates serving life sentences.
