February 2, 2025 - Coding in Prison / Cybersecurity / Weekly Insight

On this episode, contributor Steph Machado goes inside one of Rhode Island’s medium security prisons where inmates are learning the language of computers, also known as coding. They’re hoping that high demand for those skilled in web development and software design could lead to jobs that keep them out of prison for good. Then, producer Isabella Jibilian reports on the recent cyberattacks in Rhode Island and how we all can protect ourselves from future attacks here and beyond. Finally, on this episode of Weekly Insight, Michelle San Miguel and WPRI 12’s politics editor Ted Nesi talk about how Rhode Island’s Congressional delegation has responded to President Trumps first few weeks in office.
