Panguitch • When Jon Stubbs walked out of the Utah State Prison in the fall of 2016, he planned to find work, repair broken relationships and never get in trouble with the law again.
But the change didn’t come from his time spent as “one-triple-six-oh-two,” as he was called by officers at the state’s main prison in Draper.
Instead, he said, his transfer 226 miles south to the Garfield County jail — where staffers used his name and showed him he could be a responsible leader — gave him a chance to turn his life around.
