To be blunt, they have made it abundantly clear over the years that they are not good people. However, that doesn’t mean that the carceral nightmare that they’re facing is right or just. Everyone has a right to basic human dignity. Many prisoners are innocent, and 100% of prisoners are people. Yes, even the Chrisleys.
