Today, we remember Dr. A.W. Hornbogen, who was killed in an escape attempt turned tragedy at the Marquette Branch Prison on August 27, 1931. Four inmates armed with guns and ammunition that had been smuggled into the prison tried to shoot their way out of the facility, killing Hornbogen and an inmate nurse in the process. Hornbogen was temporarily filling in as a prison physician while the regular doctor was on vacation. A standoff ensued when the inmates discovered that the prison was surrounded by officers and guards. Rather than run the risk of being recaptured, the inmates killed themselves. #FallenEmployee #NeverForgotten

The Women’s Huron Valley Correctional Center recently held its 13th One Day with God camp (ODWG), allowing 63 children to spend the day with their incarcerated mothers. The 42 mothers spent the day with their kids, making crafts, playing games, and even being treated to a magician. The event also included a mother-daughter crowning ceremony and a mother-son dance. The day ended with all mothers getting to spend quiet time with their children, during which they were able to give each other gifts. During the height of COVID, the One Day with God camps were paused, or it would have marked the 15th year WHV has hosted this event. The incarcerated moms look forward to this event, and every mother who met the criteria and asked to participate was accommodated. The camp’s success was made possible by the dedication and hard work of the 155 Forgiven Ministry volunteers and the WHV staff.
