Description

On this episode, Jackie Orena joins the show to talk about her grandfather, Little Vic Orena — a 91-year-old former mob figure who is blind, suffering from dementia, wheelchair-bound, and still serving a 400-year federal sentence. Jackie shares the reality of his condition, the assault he endured behind bars, and their fight to bring him home for what may be his final days. This conversation isn’t about crime or reputation. It’s about humanity, compassion, and the question no one in power seems willing to answer: Why is a man who can’t recognize his own family still in prison?
