Off the Rails (streaming, Academic Video Online)
The remarkable true story of Darius McCollum, a man with Asperger's syndrome, whose overwhelming love of transit has landed him in jail 32 times for impersonating New York City bus drivers and subway conductors and driving their routes.
Although Darius has never damaged any property or hurt anyone in his decades of service, he has spent 23 years in maximum security prison. Darius' recidivism embodies the criminal justice system's failure to channel the passions of a harmless, mentally-challenged man into a productive career and purposeful life.
