If you were to meet Ronald Carnes, you’d never suspect he’d spent nearly half his life as a fugitive from the law. In 1970, the Black Panthers sent Ronald to Winston Salem to volunteer in their breakfast program for underprivileged youth. But when compatriot, Richard Carter, held up a convenience store, Carnes was implicated by association and sentenced to 15 – 20 years in prison. Three years later, he escaped and spent the next 41 years on the lam. This is the story a gentleman and perhaps the successful fugitive in North Carolina’s history.

In 2023, Judy Van Wyk and April Barber partnered to create a podcast about the many issues people face when transitioning from prison. Van Wyk is a longtime video producer and criminal justice advocate. April Barber received a life sentence when she was 15. After more than 31 years, she had her sentence commuted by Governor Cooper. She was released March 24, 2022.
