Zachary Trayler and Kenneth Clayton sit in front of a microphone to be interviewed during a chess game at the recreation room table in the Algoa Correctional center honor dorm. The men wear white t-shirts and sit in brown plastic chairs inside the rec room, which has concrete walls painted blue. The chess board that sits in front of the men is green and white with black and white pieces, and plants sit in the background. Behind Clayton and Trayler, Kelly Morriss - Algoa’s warden - and April Vanover, the functional unit manager, watch.
