In 1981, Billy Dillon was a 21-year-old baseball player hoping to get signed into the Detroit Tigers’ farm system. His career was derailed when he was wrongfully convicted of murder. Upon incarceration, it took less than an hour after Dillon joined the rest of the inmates for a group of men to rape him.

“Five men charged into his cell,” SBNation’s Brandon Sneed wrote in August. “Dillon fought, they stabbed him and beat him nearly unconscious – and then they took turns raping him … The guards never stopped it. ‘The guards aren’t there to protect you,’ Dillon says. ‘They’re there to keep you from getting out. They’re not going to risk their lives for yours.'”
