With exclusive access to the Macquarie Correctional Centre, one of New South Wales’ most controversial prisons, what Jubelin discovered changes the way he thinks about crime and punishment. It might also change the way crime is dealt with across the country.

“I’ve left the cops but I still want to make a difference in the world of fighting crime. By bringing a focus on what happens in prisons, this might be the most significant contribution of my career.“

“As a detective I would never have thought in my wildest dreams that I’d be advocating for prison reform. But my eyes have been opened.”

“If reoffending is reduced, so is crime and that makes society a better place. Less people reoffending means less victims of crimes. Everyone wins.”

Jubelin is also a highly sought after keynote speaker and is working on his third book to be released in 2025.
