Two Mothers: Two Sons. Two Prisons. Zero Answers

In this gut-wrenching episode of Resilience2Redemption, we give voice to two heartbroken mothers—Lashon Hudson and Tammy Reed—whose sons, Michael Hudson and Brandon Pace, were unjustly unalived inside separate Missouri Department of Corrections (MoDOC) facilities: South Central Correctional Center (SCCC) and Tipton. Lashon is left grieving not being notified and inconsistency with the time of death of her son, but also the haunting mystery of his missing organs, absent from the autopsy report. Tammy, tragically, wasn't notified of her son’s death either. To make matters worse, the autopsy report she received didn’t identify any of Brandon’s physical traits or confirm it was even his body.

This episode exposes the deep-rooted corruption, negligence, and cover-ups plaguing Missouri prisons—where lives are lost, families are silenced, and no one is held accountable. If you care about justice reform, prison accountability, and human dignity, this is an episode you must hear.
