Guiding rage into power, or G.R.I.P., is a 52-week program for violent offenders at San Quentin. It teaches the men how to understand the impact they had on their victims, how to stop their violent behavior, cultivate mindfulness and develop emotional intelligence.

JOHN LAMB: I did not have the right to take the life of Matthew. I imposed myself on Matthew's right to life and your family and friend's right to have him in your lives.
