Stoffers was born in Livingston, New Jersey.[citation needed] He was raised primarily in Westfield, New Jersey, where he resided with his paternal grandparents.[citation needed] Stoffers graduated from Westfield High School in 1993.[citation needed] He attended Union County College in Cranford, New Jersey.[citation needed] After moving to Phoenix, Arizona, in his late twenties,[citation needed] Stoffers was hired by the Arizona Department of Corrections[1] and spent several years as a correctional officer at ASPC-Lewis.[1][2]

Stoffers graduated summa cum laude[citation needed] from Kean University in Union, New Jersey, in 2014 with a bachelor's degree[3] in communication.[citation needed] He graduated with honors[citation needed] from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in 2015.[4]

In June 2015, he was publicly criticized by Piper Kerman, author of the book-turned TV-series Orange is the New Black[13] over a story he wrote that fact checked the show's premier against his personal experiences as a correctional officer.[2] Based on his journalist and former correctional officer background, he was asked to speak at Princeton University's S.P.E.A.R. (Students for Prison Education and Reform) Conference in 2015. He lectured on how to overcome the police subculture and bring reform to the criminal justice system.[14]
