The remains of others who died under the convict-lease system are scattered throughout Sugar Land, but no one is looking for them. To this day, prison-made goods and services yield the state over $50 million in revenue each year, but prisoners are not paid a cent. What could prevent future abuse in the criminal justice system and beyond? And how can Texas begin to make amends?

How did these 95 people end up in Sugar Land to begin with? One man’s remarkable life and tragic death reveals the truth about convict leasing in Texas.

The group in charge of researching remains has made little progress but refuses to cede control. Is it a conspiracy or negligence?
