Where inmates and mothers of murder victims hear each other

Mothers with a Message is an organization of bereaved parents who have lost children to homicide. Members visit prisons to tell their stories of grief to inmates, with the goal of breaking down the walls between victim and offender. Maya Trabulsi of KPBS in San Diego reports on one group of inmates who were so moved by what they heard, they pooled their creativity into a compassionate response.
