60 Days In: FULL EPISODE MEGA MARATHON – Watch ALL of Season 6 | A&E

welcome to Etowah County Alabama The Heart of Dixie we are a very conservative Christian Community there's a lot of things we don't do on Sunday we don't cut grass we don't hunt it's the Sabbath day we enjoy eating fried chicken and work six other days of the week I am Jonathan Horton I'm the new sheriff in town I took office January the 14th after winning a highly contested election and cameras will rolling the whole time hi Jonathan Horton solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution how you guys doing good to meet you man I don't blame you man I wanted to become the sheriff so I can make a difference in the detention center and in the community when it comes to the Safety and Security of the employees in the running of this jail money is not an issue period the previous Sheriff had been here for 12 years some accused him of turning the jail into his personal piggy bank pocketing leftover money from the inmates food budgets I haven't done anything wrong if it's wrong somebody needs to change the law and I think that he just lost focus on the task the jail is rated to hold a 865 inmates currently we're at over a thousand yesterday inmate ratio is one officer to 110 inmates [Applause] [Music] there's no barriers between the inmates and the correctional officers when I took office it had been over three years since the jail had been searched so in my first week of office one of the first things I did was we had a Shakedown I brought the camera crew with me so they could document just how messed up this place was there was a tremendous amount of Contraband that was found I would say a little over 5 000 pounds that varied from weapons to narcotics a soft Contraband and the excess trash a lot of fishing going on here it's like razors synthetic marijuana and 212 broken door locks within the jail it was a bit overwhelming I had expected some problems but I never expected it to that magnitude [Music] this unit alone could have set the whole building on fire at any minute we can't do nothing about yesterday but the next time we search the jail it's got to be better than this it's sure for better walk County I'm a firm believer that the boat stops to me good or bad 200 blocks didn't break overnight it broke a long time ago about you that first Shakedown and opened my eyes to just how much work it was going to take to get this jail back into the shape it needed to be in we've got a lot of work to do and a blatant place to start I realized that this jail is really broken I believe that we need 60 days and more than any other jail in America so I'm putting seven civilians into the detention center and we look forward to the skill set and perspective that each brings to the table to help clean our gel up a roller coaster of emotions but you will not see me shed a tear on this show I promise um Dennis I definitely grew up in the hood but in college I was a quarterback and I was a football star so while I'm in there I'm not going to tolerate any disrespect I'm Alex I'm a political science major growing up I had a pretty easy childhood but I want to show my parents that I can get through 60 days in jail without needing their help my name is Jennifer I'm a born-agen Christian and a God-fearing woman being a Christian woman I'm expecting to go in and change lives my name is Jacob I'm a corrections officer for the state of Pennsylvania to have to congregate with other inmates it's going to be difficult for me my name is Shanice I am an educator I work with at risk youth they tell me I'm crazy but you have to have a little bit of crazy to work in that atmosphere and be successful my name is Matt fresh out of high school I joined the Marine Corps I love the show I watch the show every season if history has shown us anything being a marine will play to my advantage the participants you'll see where drugs and Contraband are coming in identify problems that we've never seen but it's going to be a very difficult task [Applause] [Music] [Music] I don't think these participants are ready for what they're about to face I believe that this jail is going to be a lot tougher than any of the past seasons and that's why we need to meet with them and make sure they're prepared Alex bye nice to meet you at all no no I don't quit once I start something I hear you it's hitting me right now but I think once I'm in there it'll it'll be like a relief you know what I mean [Music] what's going on man Alex nice to meet you Matt Matt yeah nice to meet you guys nervous uh Maybe stop bro what's up man I'm Matt I'm Jacob nice to meet you Jacob what's up boss Richard Dennis Dennis I'm Alex hello yeah nice to meet you man all right cool nice [Music] how you guys doing this afternoon good doing great introduce myself I'm Jonathan Horton I'm the sheriff of Etowah County Alabama this is my first term I'm a new sheriff I would like to introduce to you my team to my right is the assistant chief of Corrections Mark Bullock to my left is chief of Corrections Keith pick Chief Pete is chief of Corrections he's the top of the food chain when it comes to the jail no one knows the gel as well as Chief Peak in relationship to this program Chief Peak will be the point person with the participants let's start with you guys and I'll start here in the front and you want to introduce yourself and where you're from my name is Matt from Tacoma Washington Seattle area through the Marine Corps decided to do this to see if my opinion is right on jail or if it's wrong so what do you think of the Criminal Justice System right now being a criminal is not my world criminal justice system is not my world I want to go out and help veterans who have been through this and I can't help them if I don't know what they went through and what's your story why were you arrested we're now talking inmate talk I got a DUI DUI where'd you get caught at up in Huntsville At Redstone yeah okay appreciate it thank you so I think all the Marines that have been on the show have been successful you want to come up Matt and Nate are both combat veterans I don't think I'm up to their level because I just didn't have that kind of deployment but I'm up to their level as far as I'm a marine I understand the routine hi my name is Jacob I'm 45 minutes south of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and then what's your story I got arrested for embezzlement embezzlement okay now in real life you work in the State Penitentiary or I've been at the steeping country now for three and a half years and then before I was there for about two and a half three years then I did 500 hours of overtime last year on top of my normal schedule and it sounded like you work at Etowah County thank you I have no problem I wish you a lot of love thank you [Music] I'm kind of at a point in my life where I'm not exactly sure which path I want to want to take what exactly I want to do with my life so I'm hoping this will help me uh grow up and I'll be able to get through this without the help of Mom and Dad for once so so if you were in jail right now what was your arresting for Alex I was on my way to Panama City beach after finishing my finals and we were picking up a friend in Birmingham cop pulls us over finds two ounces of cocaine nobody claims the cocaine so we all get arrested and send to different deals are you driving or just a passenger I was a passenger yeah are you nervous right now a little bit you're about to pull your fingers off and they're shaking like crazy so why are you nervous what's making you nervous right now with just us just just just talking honestly to you guys right now how are you gonna do it with a bunch of inmates so we've got a nice space an inmate is going to be like this up on you talking to you yeah see the difference so if you're nervous now with us these guys will see that they will eat you alive okay so you need to work on that right go to your hotel room or wherever you're staying stand in front of a mirror and tell your story yeah we got homework tonight all right thanks Alex what's your inmate Story I mean what are you doing in jail I don't really feel like talk about that right now okay what's your hand for no I'm good I'm not in jail I'm running to jail you know you're a little cocky okay [Music] you ever been in jail before really no never no so this is a new experience for you okay you kind of Purdy you're gonna go into place with a bunch of rednecks that attitude right there they're gonna eat you alive I think Chief Peak threatened by me intimidated by me that to me is that's not a tough person that's a weak person that's a soft person that's the person I beat up you know if if I'm allowed to if I can fight him Pete come after me as one of those type of guys you know it's just jail but I'm gonna get my respect you've got to relax a little bit you gotta let loose you know I got my back I got yours thank you for sure so once you get in these units there's a couple of signals that we're going to give you one verbal and one physical to ask for help the non-verbal is to take your right hand and put it upon your chest we'll call it the pledge allegiance or I've got heartburn this is your signal of I need help the verbal would be it sure is crowded in this pod it sure is crowded in this pod in Etowah County we have a large population that generates a lot of violence within the jail so I've asked my associates Chief John Bryan and detective Jason Higgins to come and help us in training today teaching self-defense it's aggressive assertive movement that's what you've got to do these guys are both masters of self-defense certified in ppct which is pressure point control tactics and they fight a minute can seem like an eternity okay tough all right let's take the duck out coming up grabbing right but I'm simply just gonna knock out all right good now you try it you choke him no no no no do it again choke you oh here no no no no no I was not impressed with my performance in training is so awkward I don't know what it was I just I just couldn't dug but I played plenty of dodgeball in my life come on Alex there's a straight back Dennis was like I guess I could tell I was discouraged so he tried to like help me out like like what like that like yeah I had to encourage him I just kind of took him to the side and let him practice on me you know what I'm saying I don't want you to feel like you can't protect yourself you can't it's cool Alex do it man get away from me do it again this time put some ass into it all right I hope none of you guys end up having to defend yourself but it is a very real possibility all right all right good luck to you sir the Etowah County Jail is in a dire situation we do not feel that we have time to waste we feel we need to get participants embedded in the jail as soon as possible good job guys so we're gonna do things different this season I'm going to arrest people straight out of training we've had a long day of training all of you seem to have done well now I will tell you this we have made a decision that one of you is going to jail today we've had a long day of training all of you seem to have done well now I will tell you this we haven't made a decision that one of you is going to jail today and that person is going to be the one that we feel is the most ready and right now we feel like that's you Matt [Music] I got I had a few things to handle with my wife first you can take care of that before you go all right we want Matt to go in first all right sir we feel like his former military training gives him a little bit of an edge in the past Marines have done well in the program we feel he's the toughest for the position I didn't expect it I didn't when he was like somebody's going in today my stomach dropped immediately cool hey I'm gonna go in right now are you okay yeah because I'm nervous it's like two or three days I'll probably get a hold of you all right I love you both love you too all right bye [Music] ever thought I was gonna be on 60 days in at all in 2011 I joined the Marine Corps I was active duty for four years been in Afghanistan one tour got married shortly after that and I have a three-year-old daughter I'd like to say I have the perfect life I love my family I like to be around them those are my best friends I'm very strong-minded once I make my mind up on something I'm gonna do it I'm competing to prove to myself that any situation that arises in my life I can handle it if I could handle the Marine Corps I can handle going to jail all right let's just do it now that I'm getting ready to go in I need to remember why I'm here why I'm doing this because this is a whole new world what is the what is the city called um lots of yeah okay and you can be foggy on those details I don't even know because you've never been here before yeah so what we're at this point right there walking towards the arrest vehicle I felt excitement fear nervousness [Music] when I got handcuffs put on me I felt like there's no turning back at that point I accepted the mission and I have to perform and complete it [Music] now that Matt's on his way to the facility it's time to refocus and make sure that the females are trained and ready for the challenges that lay ahead of them foreign [Music] I'm Jennifer are we the team we're the team yes we're the team yeah give me a girl what's your name Ashley good to meet you Hi how you feeling I'm I'm good I just been like kind of waiting to meet I take this program extremely seriously anticipation is killing me I just hope I get put with a group of like-minded people whose goal is to help the sheriff and to make this world a better place I know I have show bumps right now because this is like this feels good morning I'm Sheriff Jonathan Horton this is my chief of Corrections Keith peek assistant chief of Corrections Mark Bullock You're Going to the Etowah County Jail it's one of the largest county jails in the state so that you can get an understanding of some of the things you may encounter I'm going to turn it to chief of Corrections Keith peek y'all got all prettied up today you put your makeup on these are things you're not going to be able to do it's not going to be a walking apart it's not going to be easy hey I'm on TV we have 10 units in our jail one unit is for females so knowing that you're going to be in there with anybody from a traffic ticket to capital murder you know the women to be honest with you a lot nastier than the men are a lot more conniving manipulative and just as violent or vowel we actually have more fights inside the women's unit than we do anywhere in the facility interesting so we'll start on this end we're going to give each one of you an opportunity and introduce yourself hi I'm Ashley nice to meet you I'm 29 years old I'm from Texas I'm full-time Army National Guard for my own safety I do not want any of the other participants to know that my actual career is that I am a police officer that's pretty much me in a nutshell because there have been previous leaks in the show by the participants I will be telling everyone outside of the sheriff and the production staff that I am full-time National Guard being in the military and having the kind of training that I have I have a very clear Mission I want to help you I really do want to help you and find out as much as I can y'all have got a mindset where you want to go in jail to see what's going on that's not normal you know they see you going out a lot for interviews and stuff like that you're going to be labeled as a snitch and they just get stitches so how long it takes them to label you as a snitch that's up to y'all got to be cautious of what you do you know these people do this for a living they don't do it to be on TV and be a movie star well thanks Ashley all right hello I'm Shanice Shanice Denise you got it okay I work with at-risk youth one of the reasons I'm interested in doing this a lot of my kids have been in jail a lot of their parents have been in jail or in jail or in prison I try to reach them in unique ways and I think this is a very unique way to try to reach them you're a little nervous here and all that kind of stuff I am I mean I real stupid you ain't cut you ain't pulled at your hands you hadn't done anything so it's all in my head my head is going like you ever had trouble with law enforcement yes and no well but they've helped me out a lot I mean working in an alternative school there's fights there's guns there's all of that and they protect me so I have no problem with law enforcement good luck Therese thank you last but not least she's been taking a lot of deep breaths over here I'm Jennifer good to meet you and how old are you Jennifer I'm 41. I'm a minister in my church when I was young I was a very rebellious teen I was The Runaway I was an alcoholic I was an underage stripper at the age of 14. um I had a son very young by the time I had my son I'd kind of changed my life around now my grandmother and my son will be 25. my whole motto is if I can change someone's mind their way of thinking then their actions are automatically going to follow so not only do I live that but I see it work and you actually have good body language as far as how you talk how you tell your story which I think is because you have a past of maybe dealing with that type of stuff you're having tattoos yeah you have the opportunity to get some no thank you I'm going to pass I'm going to pass here's the thing okay the numbers are stacked against you you're from out of town you don't know anybody you don't have friends they do remember that so are y'all scared hell yeah so when I woke up for training today I was like all right I'm a little bit tired and then you guys dropped that bomb on me told me I'm going in and my whole fatigue kind of turned into like a an adrenaline rush stepping out of the arrest card you feel anxious you feel worried you feel lost one guy was on suicide watch that set in the reality and I was like man this is so real [Music] [Music] and then once I walked through the actual jail door and I sat at that table I'm trying to sit there and remember my cover story and remember everything I have to remember but the only thing I could think about are my surroundings I was just like I sacrificed everything back home to do this like what was I thinking [Music] like I'm not as mentally strong as I thought it was because I thought I had it figured out and I don't [Music] foreign [Music] hell yeah being an educator for at-risk youth at any moment the kids can bring in a gun and knife or whatever and you know a lot of times I am scared but in training got real it got real it got so real I mean I've been in for 19 years I get scared with that being said we've decided to arrest one of you and place you in the jail right now [Music] we've decided that that person is Ashley we feel that you're ready to go to jail Yep this is the best way to do it I don't gotta think about it anymore all right can I wash my face yeah you can watch your face okay yeah we want actually to go in first because we believe her being a police officer will give her that edge that she needs to be successful [Music] okay yeah I was holding my breath I'm surprised I'm breathing all right I'm kind of glad that it is me because the anticipation is murder so get in get it over with do my job do the best I can get out those are my goals it's game time you look different look a little more inmate ready so we wish you a lot of luck and we believe you'll you'll do fine so anything I can get out I have been in the National Guard for over 11 years I love my country as a police officer I have a lot of respect for Corrections Officers my motivation for wanting to do this is the very rare opportunity to strengthen my investigation skills by engulfing myself in the element I'm a police officer I'm in the military I'm a student I am quite overwhelmed with everything in my life but I have no doubt that I'll make it the full 60 days get me in let me learn let me help I'm ready [Music] [Music] when I came into booking oh gosh it was probably the most surreal moment of my life I'm just thinking wow this is a very different experience for me [Music] taking people to sorry I have done better Pat Downs on the side of the road than I was given entering a correctional facility she didn't search the inside of my bra she didn't check in between my legs properly nobody checked my mouth that was scary to me because I definitely could have snuck in a lot of drugs I have to tight anymore I'm washing my ass nobody watched me take my clothes off I got to take my clothes off privately I could have kept my bra the only reason I took it off is because I knew that it was Contraband and I'm not trying to rock the boat I was not asked to squat but it's actually reminded me of why I'm doing it to help out the community as a whole [Music] foreign please God I tried to keep like Stone face but that was like probably the most vulnerable moment of my life I feel like an inmate I feel like a real inmate and that's scary we're both [Music] [Music] uh [Music] in other Seasons intake looked very quick but I thought you know you go in there get your cuffs here's you put it on go to yourself when I went through it nine hours waiting to be told you're going to this room you know like a KitKat when you break it in half that's my mind right now [Music] gave me told me it was fresh jeans that have never been washed a shirt that has never been washed the mattress I wouldn't even call it mattress and the piece of cotton with the rubber over it and all of a sudden it's a whole nother game thank you walking into the Pod for the first time it was very surreal feeling at three o'clock in the morning having slept all day to just see it literally looks like a zoo you know people walk around all the animals come out to get fed that's really what it looked like that's really how it felt like a zoo and because the doors don't lock they don't go to bed even at night time foreign [Music] you watch the show and it looks completely different than when you're in here in the back of my head I was like you should have just stayed a fan honestly you should have just stayed a fan and I don't care what anybody says if you've never been to jail you have no idea [Music] I didn't sleep too well last night what anxiety is the anxiety let them out right now I'm still very nervous I think anybody that's going to jail that's never actually done jail time is going to be nervous but uh you know I walk into this type of environment every day hey baby girl are you daddy's girl I'm a family man I have a wife and three children I got into Corrections mainly to make better money for my family working Corrections you have to have a thick skin there's danger every day then you pretty much become accustomed to the environment I gotta go can I have big hugs one more time I believe that being a CEO could be an advantage I believe that that I know what they do I know what they're involved in and it's horrible my puppy but failing is not an option for me to tap out it's going to take a uh shank to the body I've never left him before really nope [Music] so about five minutes away from the arrest location so remember when you get into intake in terms of fear the stress signal intake is the one place where you can't get the distressed signal because there's no way we can pull you out when you're not into the jail yet it sounds great all right fellas foreign I'm doing okay how are you ready to do this thing yep I am I have high expectations not to put stress on you and I know what you do for a living in the real world we've got your cover story yeah pretty good and down so anything you want to say before we begin this Mission the only thing I can think of is let's get it going I'm tired of waiting good luck Jacob all right thank you we'll have you step right over here to the arrest team thank you Jacob he's got to be able to separate being an officer versus an inmate and if he can't accept that row reversal he's gonna fail for me to be successful I'm going to have to stick to my cover story and I'm gonna have to become anime Jacob Miller [Music] walking up in there I do have this feeling that this gel may be worse than the other seasons [Music] foreign [Music] focus on inside these places now I'm going to be on the other side [Music] and that worries me because it makes her very smart they shout and say and do certain things to try to mock you make fun of you to avoid you because they're trying to spin you up being alone inside this Joe it's really the only thing that I'm terrified of [Music] whatever matter [Music] I think this is going to be a lot harder than I thought [Music] just replaying my story in my head um you know so I gotta live a different life so all right my hand's a little sweaty but it's all good I feel like if this ride for like my Yukon and ready to head to wrestler field like it's game day high school college football was everything so it was always you got to be a leader you got to be the leader and not to sound cocky or anything like that but everywhere I went you know people look up to me so I don't think this this wouldn't be any different I don't really thought this out I think I did I was thinking about what it can do how I can help the community help the people I want to go to jail for 60 days because I definitely want to show you know my family my friends and basically myself that I can do something like this I know you as a person as my son so I know you know how to help with me to being him for sure yeah yeah by the end I'll definitely have some position of authority in there basically you just look at people in the eyes and you just don't back down that's it oh man don't be so sad don't be praying in jail yeah [Music] all right I'll be back what's up Dennis how you feeling man I'm feeling good ready to do this good yes sir I'm ready look like you come off a GQ photo shoot you know you're in the country now right compromise you gotta you gotta go in that ain't the country you need to go in with a mindset of don't worry about your parents or anything like that because when the people see that they're going to tear you apart yes sir I know we're on TV but you're fixing to go into a real live jail it's not going to be anybody in there that says hey stop we're going to retake this got it yes sir all right your success is our success so that's what we're after all right yes sir all right we're gonna ride over here to the arrest team go and lift up your left leg I definitely want to show the mental toughness I have to be able to go in any situation and come out dominated I think I can go in and definitely uh have an influence in there I'm not going to go in there and get bullied that I won't tolerate I can hold my own for real no but I've never been to jail so I know I'm talking before I go in there but I'm a tough person and and I'm going in there and I'm I know I'm going to kill it no I'm going to kill it oh foreign [Music] that pod I think I was having a panic attack this is not like anything I've ever seen on 60 days ever this is nothing like anything I've ever seen on the show [Music] so many more females than 60 days and has ever had before like it's just massive my Summit she told me that they put bright pink shirts on women who are either convicted or charged with murder or other high custody crimes so they they make those women stand out [Music] thank you this is very very real this is a very real terrifying situation to be in especially for me [Music] God I decided not to tell anybody my real job if War gets out that I am a police officer I will probably be in the hospital this is not what I thought it was going to be at all [Applause] foreign [Music] I've told them that they know that they don't want to lock me up with that bushware for me as I walk through intake just to even walk through those doors that's when I knew like this is this is not TV this is real life [Music] from that moment I said a prayer and it was like you know what the hell imma go with it [Music] foreign [Music] but I can tell he's not feeling well you look like he was sick I don't know how long he's been here he kept drinking water kept using the restroom I don't know what's going on that's the corrections officer on the inside I have a hard time turning it off [Applause] if you want to tap out take your right hand and put it upon your chest intake is the one place where you can't get the distressing I can't become an inmate I can't do that I'll see you on the other side I'm giving up all control checking was very slack I totally could have stuck something on my butt if I wanted to gotta go in and have this look like with me it's been pure free from the moment I walked in through the door if you think this is fake I'm Tony right now it's not Etowah County Jail is a party anything that's out on the street is in the gym foam heroin ice the whole night is just free for all his weapons it is not safe go get your knife you kill me I kill you bro I never really seen a guy get like stabbed that close to me people can die in a matter of seconds if Alex was in any type of danger I would have got for me I'd rather get beat up than have dentists be my savior that was awkward sucks ass I trust it actually more than I do Jennifer I don't drink stuff like that what's going on I want Shanice to go home as soon as possible please this place can take a sane person and cause them to become insane there are so many demonic presences in this place this is the worst thing I've ever experienced in my life dumbest decision of it if you want to tap out take your right hand and put it upon your chest I underestimated the reality of it [Music] something that's never happened before in six seasons is happening right now bye-bye foreign Jonathan Horton I took office January the 14th after winning a highly contested election hi Jonathan Horton solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution how you guys doing when I took office it had been over three years since the jail had been searched [Applause] we found more than a ton of Contraband this unit alone could have set the whole building on fire at any minute a tremendous amount of makeshift weapons and the 212 broken door locks within the jail I had expected some problems but I never expected it to that magnitude the joke is rated to hold a 865 inmates currently we're at over a thousand s after that first Shakedown opened my eyes to just how much work it was going to take to get this gel back into the shape it needed to be in and what kind of the most Cricket county in the state of Alabama all the insane inmates are here 60 days even more than any other jail in America [Applause] so outputting seven civilians into the Detention Center to help me clean and burnt out one of you is going to jail today and that person's going to be the one that we feel is the most ready and right now we feel like that's you man [Music] in other Seasons intake looked very quick I thought you know you go in there get your cuffs here's you put it on go to yourself when I went through it nine hours you know like a KitKat when you break it in half that's my mind right now so many more females than 60 days and has ever had before this is very very real this is a terrifying situation to be I didn't sleep too well last night I think anybody that's going to jail that's never actually done jail time is going to be nervous look like you come off at the GQ photo shoot you know you're in the country now right I recognize them when I when I first walk in it was Jacob you look like he was sick if you want to tap out take your right hand and put it upon your chest intake us to one place where you can't get them distressing [Music] thank you [Applause] um we're doing we're talking better about life inside do you want to sign the release you want to sign okay great it's a better background for us okay all right let me just do a little interviews um what's going on I'm I'm ready to go yeah a lot of people have been here for a long time um I'm very uh suffocated no I just I'm just I'm done I I can't I'm sorry let me know yes um there's a lot that we have to do on YouTube thank you for your story I'll rest your day as well we'll probably see you in the deposit later on okay okay all right now thanks [Music] have you got good news bad news this is actually something that's never happened before Jacob is an intake and he's already giving a signal he's done he wants out we pull him out that's gonna be a huge red flag they're gonna know something's up so I guess at this stage Chief what can we do better go 100 sure that he is completely done with this program and what's out of it we we are 100 sure we processed for a second I won't process through this shots everyone [Music] [Music] when I came into booking I took off my underwear bra and my bright yellow panties [Music] the gel does not provide you with a second change of clothes or underwear so I'm not wearing underwear right now or a bra I can't even order a bra on commissary I can't even order panties on commissary I've been asking for a white request form for like two days now so I can get some of her toys I've even asked for state-issue disposable underwear can't get it but I'm on 60 days in so I need to be able to figure it out myself let's see what my bloody ripped up nasty rag blanket and remind me Wednesday let's see they'll give you a telephone yeah I'm telling you read it hello it is a bloody sheet it's a funny it's not Russ no that's blood okay other people like if you live locally somebody can bring you some whites but here I am in an out of state situation so I don't get that option I was creative enough to make a makeshift bra out of a rusty torn bed sheet that I ripped up foreign so my boobs aren't flopping around everywhere do you want to see my bra that I made if you want to show what you need sure you blur like my fat rolls okay that's inventive yeah so that's made from a my bed sheet bed sheet yeah I mean they've given me literally a rag so I don't feel bad ripping it up if I don't get some underwear the next two months will be an absolute mess no I just made one I'm good now oh you said you made one yeah make me one I broke my blanket up okay [Music] oh God [Applause] [Music] the first night I was in here did not sleep you watched the show and it looks completely different than when you're in here I didn't expect the anxiety intention to be this high [Applause] I'm like physically mentally just drained and I haven't even been here that long last time [Music] who came over booze the old man lives next week he comes up to me and what's your story I tell him to it and he goes that don't seem right he starts questioning me about it [Music] and I told him I didn't have Bond and I think that's where I up and he just started calling me out on all my that point he called me out as soon as I told my story he was like I've lived in this state my entire life they would never transfer you from Redstone to here on a DUI [Applause] foreign I really thought I had it down I thought I had the cover Story down but then when you get questioned about it and you're in there and your mind's over here and it's supposed to be right here it's a different ball game that's awesome like one of five people are believing what I'm telling them so we gotta figure something out and there's like two ogs probably have to figure it out these guys are a real deal this is their life and these guys will hurt you I mean they really will they hurt each other why wouldn't they hurt an outsider and I I underestimated that out of that [Music] if we don't get Jacob out quick all of our work all of our efforts and all the information that we're trying to gain from this shut down in 30 seconds activities quality tapping out an intake it put the program in a vigorous [Music] what happened [Music] I just started thinking about my my wife my my children just way too much like the the longer I was in that small space I would get more anxiety and feel nauseous the entire time I I believe I was in love a lot of denial um up until intake denial about one it's now about being able to do this for six days I hate myself right now I have no confidence right now or anything really hello hi honey [Applause] hey yeah I'm good okay what's going on uh yeah I failed [Music] what's going on honey honey I'm I'm done I already left I failed [Music] if you couldn't do it you couldn't do it it's okay you couldn't be an inmate because you're a CEO not officer you're not an inmate don't worry I love you [Music] all right bye-bye you know you you selected me for a reason and then you know I do this it's it's hard for me to swallow it's okay Jacob it's not okay it's not [Music] I don't know I'm a mess [Music] I'm feeling disappointed in myself for obvious reasons I just wish that I could have contributed in my heart I believe I made the right decision but it's going to be something that needs of me for a long time [Music] intake was uh pretty interesting Jacob was in there too I don't know what happened to him I mean I can't say anything bad about the guy I don't know the guy I'm not in the business of Shame and nobody but it did feel a little weird because he ended up leaving out first and then everybody was like what happened to the white boy I don't know when I go in there I want to focus on you know you know what I got to do and I'm not really focused on anybody else so going in there my main goal is to set a standard kind of established like look don't play with me don't come around me I'm not gonna go in there and get bullied I've learned that from you know being in the hood growing up like I'm not the one to be playing around with hey get down [Music] come over to sleep I said come have a seat thank you I'm not gonna show them you know any weakness because I ain't scared of nobody well I'm going to jail a little nervous it doesn't feel real but it is it's very real I know we I'll see you later I miss my dog because everything that I've ever been through in the last 12 years that was scary they were there with me and I miss him oh man through we're about five minutes out I'm still feeling a little nervous but I always tell my students to be committed into everything you do and so I have to show them that I'm committed as well I do have a big personality I can be very loud they call me cray-cray but that crazy has kept me safe I am an educator I work with at-risk youth this dealing with kids that a lot of people have given up on a lot of my kids are in the system a lot of their families are in the system by doing this I want to be able to come out and say that I've been through it I understand and I've made it through and if you are in a similar situation you can make it through as well you ready sure we'll go with that thank you from here all right good luck again good luck thank you anytime I start something to go is always to finish it I think it would be very difficult to face my kids if I didn't make it that's a little scary to me being an educator for a risk youth I like to know things and have control I've gotten bug bites on me and stuff from sleeping in the fort the booking process that was the moment I realized I'm giving up all control [Music] all the way out when I first walked into the Pod they were in free time so everybody was around here [Music] so it's just like oh what's going on in my mind it's like okay I just gotta go in and have this look like you know hey with me [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] now I need to go ahead and do what I came here to do now it's game time you know I've watched the show it's always been a lot smaller 100 plus guys are never really on lockdown because you can't lock people down if the doors don't lock and you got one guard you can't punish them because you're alone [Applause] it is insane [Music] they just got the supplies in had a big bag of razors sitting up on the thing and when the white guard walked away from his desk the guy came up took like a handful of razors brought him back to his room what's needed a handful razors for hard's watching them it doesn't give him it is not safe whatsoever you're constantly doing this when people walk behind you you know what I mean and I get that it's jail and that's that's common but I cannot breathe in there I don't know if I can do this [Applause] [Music] I woke up ate breakfast and I'm getting into it getting to know everybody understanding how everything works so I'm getting them to miss you go I explained my cover story to maybe one guy it was too easy I don't want to be a not on the log just sitting there looking around so I just got right to it [Music] my workout routine is basically like a thousand reps I call it a stack a day maybe 100 150 pull-ups to 300 push-ups [Music] ABS I'm a six foot three tall handsome black guy look good everybody's eyes was on it like who does it do my best advice to a first time would be just try to be as humble as possible [Music] I'm trying to beat the chest and flex on they didn't gainous respect here because we live in this place best thing for you to do is try to stick keep a low profile don't draw a chance you drawing too much attention to yourself you're too loud I won't get flashy with it nowhere to get flashlight it might be someone bigger that will test you there's a doggy dog world I'm an apex predator so there's nothing that's going to be out here trying to eat me just being in here people get a sense of like if you really plan or you really not so I had to let them know like don't play with me sometimes good Holograms I attitude it's bad when I'm hungry so I didn't get to eat before I came in my first warning like I'm shaking cause I'm so hungry I have a food allergy to gluten it is called celiac disease very serious I cannot have anything with gluten in it you can't grits coming into this program I thought that I would be able to survive because they have to serve fruits and vegetables with every meal so I can at least eat that so this morning I just hope that I can get food that I can eat [Applause] [Music] for breakfast I had Fried Chicken Fingers bread cheese I couldn't even eat the cheese because it was on the bread I feel helpless [Music] I don't know what to do okay from here I just came down here a couple weeks ago how am I going to get proof of celiac because of you know what I'm saying the situation I'm like I don't know what to tell them so I really don't know what's his name I don't know nothing about that go that's basically if she shoot me off [Music] you don't know the men through you don't know what this disease has done to me it's not a joke but they don't care I still haven't had breakfast lunch or dinner I'm getting ready to snap thank you my third night I didn't shower for the first three days because I was hoping for clean clothes so I went ahead and took my shower put my dirty clothes back on

underwear and there and I'm naked and I'm like are you gonna bring me extra clothes said she was going to get home don't talk and they don't care my soulmate's name is Rita she's wonderful she's just

exposed just gonna sit back now Miss Williams please you said you would come back I can't believe the guard abandoned me naked in my room [Applause] [Music] for lunch [Music] I don't feel safe at this point the doors don't lock if somebody wanted to hurt somebody in a Cell all they would have to do is open the door it was such a bad feeling there no regret right now [Music] [Music] [Music] this is like the challenging mental thing I've ever done it is insane it's like it is literally an animal cage in there I feel like I'm losing my mind seeing how it's supposed to hell sorry to disappointed [Music] [Music] it's not right [Music] if you know you pull your clothes off and stand there and she'll be right back because she didn't come back I'm mad now I just want to set up here in my mouth me

didn't give me any clothes here's my vagina everyone please enjoy it it's my full display [Music] all right watch out really you're about to see it again because of my clientele is a [Music] I can't get any help I don't know I don't know what more to do as you come back maybe a lot of stuff she's doing just for the Heather so that's why I act like I wouldn't even care I wouldn't be spending I don't I don't understand why she would but they do it just don't kick me on people like this that's not okay it is not okay to deny there's nothing human beings flow I'm not even underwear especially women who menstruate and have periods I guess I'll just pre-bleed all the way down to my ankles whenever my time comes really bothers me the sheriff the captain anybody involved in the senior leadership who know about this program have no idea what is happening to the women in their facility that surprises the hell out of me thod I got another shirt put it on okay now I'm okay [Music] with your legs and just like pair of pants and tied up now get this dirty girl Freedom quickly rub my vagina on your shirt put it on like a pale panties like on your mama now put your shirt on like a pair

you can throw it up a little tired or not thanks okay yeah the kiss her ass look over here this is like probably the most humiliating vulnerable moment of my life [Music] like is this normal foreign hey chief I'm just gonna start by apologizing Matt he's give he's given the signal and he I guess is said to camera that he's done he's done he wants out today he just wants out you might just be being dramatic but we don't know so we have to take it seriously else batting average sucks it does foreign [Music] what's going on that place insane I'm not I'm just saying at this point I don't think it's safe anymore this probably won't make you feel better but you know we've obviously been watching I mean you've done a really good job just blending into the background you know you're not alone in there uh I guess what I'm asking is um what do you want to do I don't know I mean it's just like it's like a 50 50. I'm just trying to get inside your head what's going on [Music] to save me I feel like it's bit off more than two [Music] I think I underestimated the show and I think that I think you guys show as much as you can but you don't show it off you know what I mean yeah we can't there's no way to show it all yes I'll be honest with you this is the dumbest decision of it I'm gonna make it safe I don't you put all the mental aside I don't think it's safe just weapons there's drugs there's lack of respect in every aspect inside of there they don't give it it's just it's just not safe [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] I think that I'm in over my head and I'm kind of questioning my decision all the CEOs are soft they don't strike no fear to nobody I'm not gonna sit here and be bullied around by them [Applause] why did you give the signal you're gonna be able to edit a lot of this because I don't think you are gonna like some of what I'm about to tell you so what do you want to do oh god um foreign [Music] [Music] I'm getting ready to snap coming in my main goal is to kind of establish like look don't play with me don't come around me hey get down I'm not gonna show them any weakness because I ain't scared of nobody guard abandoned me naked in my room is this really what they do to people in jail um he called me out as soon as I told my story what's going on I don't think it's

[Music] a hundred percent this process it broke me [Music] [Music] how you feel [Music] like I failed which I did all the seasons leading up to this jail made it seem manageable and the jail was a thousand times worse and tougher and the experience was not what I expected to get out of it what you guys show on TV is just like a blink a blink of what goes on in there and how you actually feel jail prison whatever you want to call is literally hell on Earth and head and I couldn't I just I couldn't accept it foreign [Music] [Music] sorry I have no pants okay no problem thank you you was [Music] all right [Applause] [Music] thank you what do you want me right over here [Applause] why did you give the signal you're gonna be able to edit a lot of this because I don't think you all are gonna like some of what I'm about to tell you what's going on it's been pure from the moment I walked in through the door can you can you give me some examples when like the guard abandoned me naked in my room you guys have to know about that situation we do know about that that was that was awful that's inhumane that's I'm probably gonna cry I told you I didn't want to but that was the most humiliating moment of my life um well this gel doesn't provide people with underwear at all so I'm not wearing underwear right now I will not wash clothes again because I don't want the situation to happen again until other clothes came in on commissary they don't give you extra clothes what's your name Williams officer Williams I'm not gonna call our officer oh call her guard Williams so what do you want to do oh God um okay I feel better I'll stay I just needed to talk to somebody okay yeah thanks Ashley yep um [Music] I want to go back in there because I have the ability to fight Miss Williams in a very intricate and Technical way that other women do not I'm not going to yell at her I'm not going to call her names I want her to be fired and to make sure that this never ever ever happens to any woman in custody Etowah County ever again [Music] thank you [Music] how you feeling okay so are you ready to do this ready I'm ready to do it whenever y'all are ready to do it man what

it'll be fine because I'll come out on the other end stronger oh well okay we love you I love you all too and I'll see you I'll see you on the other side Alex okay yeah I think I'm just kind of taking it all in right now I'm interested to see who um just like who else is going to be in there [Music] I'm hoping there's a few other like younger guys I can kind of mess with right out of the gate but we'll see at least it's nice outside beautiful day to get arrested look appreciate it we'll be watching I'm a political science major and I actually have one semester left before I graduate there's a part of me that has considered becoming a congressman and trying to reform the criminal justice system and I'll have a lot of first-hand Knowledge from this experience to make that happen she's a good mom I can't deny that I think that the audience might think that I'm someone who will have a rough time because I can be kind of like awkward and I do get nervous but what they don't know about me is I'm also very good at adapting to a lot of different social situations about it Alex going man good how about a week nervous a little bit rightfully so I guess you need to take a breath I think you'll do good you look like you're a little bit more calm you're a little bit more relaxed you're not as shaking as butt yeah are you nervous right now a little bit and you're shaking like crazy these guys will see that and they will eat you alive just be yourself you know how to act good luck Alex yeah all right Alex Shannon good luck see you on the other side step right back here to our recipe all right sir lift your right leg back towards me that was so sheltered I definitely had some privilege growing up that probably a lot of people didn't I've always had like my mom or my dad and just kind of bail me out of everything so I've never really had to like get through something on my own I'm glad that I had that great childhood but I'm not a kid anymore and I gotta start doing things for myself big stuff like it's just time to grow up and stand fully on my own two feet [Applause] yeah as soon as you get dressed up all right the checking process of like changing out from my regular customer inmate clothes was very Slack no one watched me change out I didn't have to do like the whole coffin or anything like that they let me keep my socks my underwear so I would totally could have stuck something up my butt if I wanted to and y'all would be none the wiser so see we've been talking about exercising you [Music] guys all right let's go again walking into the Pod it definitely became real at that moment there are a few people freaking out like nothing I've ever heard in my life bring your ass to jail where's me press me I was freaking out I didn't want to show that I was freaking out it's gonna be a long 60 days thank you I get ready for laundry and I'm like okay [Music] after the incident with Miss Williams I told the other inmates and everybody's like oh yeah that was messed up that's a horrible thing that happened to you at that point I realized okay everybody's on board with me foreign the one thing I hate above anything else is somebody in a position of power abusing that so I'm gonna do what I do best and fix this like military style approximately [Music] I was going to use every tool possible to make sure that that woman was not allowed to torture us anymore great professional s um I am one of the only people that can really protect these girls at this point and I decided to show them how to write about what she's done wrong and hope that somebody is going to pay attention to it foreign I'm not gonna let her win and I'm not gonna let these other women fight alone [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] I came in after the commissary so I don't have everything I need I don't have so I don't have anything I have to get everything from a seal every time I take a shot they just said no it [Music] they usually have the liquid soaps um poured out but today they didn't have it so I was like let me just see if I can just get it also I needed a medical form so I can get my shoes [Music] I could have just grabbed whatever I want it [Applause] [Music] [Music] I went to I went behind the CEO's desk grab the soap and then I seen the medical forms and I just grabbed one Medical phone thank you gonna get beat up okay look I don't see that right now [Music] um all the CEOs are soft they don't strike no fear to nobody I'm not gonna sit here and be bullied around by them really happening going into a pod with 150 woman is going to be a challenge because I don't usually get along well with women as friends not because I don't want to be friends but they find some petty reason to turn on me people are people are trifling people are shady we're about five minutes out okay once I see the facility just stand behind me in case my face [Music] thank you [Music] good luck thank you bye gentlemen okay right now I'm a God-fearing woman but I wasn't always that person I was a very conniving child in front of everyone I looked like I was the perfect kid and behind the scenes I was doing a lot of bad stuff I started drinking at 11. I was a stripper at 14 years old I was involved in cocaine I just became Wild but then on my 16th birthday I got pregnant I just changed my life wonderful sure good to see you guys all right if you would step right this way to the rest team they're going to take it from here life since being born again has been an amazing transformation being a very cold-hearted vindictive selfish person to someone who can love the unlovable views will be accepted by some of the women in there but I feel like other people will think that I'm fanatical and you know I'll get on their nerves [Music] that's okay because I don't care about anyone's opinion okay so how do I what exactly the showers were because [Music] standing behind it like officers right now I don't know much at all but um I need to just kind of get to know the basics because I don't know how to use the commissary machine or anything I don't know how to use the showers I really don't know how that works so I got to start figuring that out are you gonna try to take a shower today I don't know I I should I should try to take a shower today we don't have to do it at some point I can't go 60 days without showering I mean then I will get my ass beat I am starting to smell myself so I'm just gonna have to do it I don't feel comfortable getting naked right in front of everybody it's weird you know I've been in locker rooms and stuff before but even those had like you know little things you could close off the showers with and this was just like totally open with like three guys showering here and three guys showering there so it's just an adjustment foreign it's like ripping off a Band-Aid I'm just gonna go in there and I'm gonna do it and if I do I do it if I do it wrong I'm sure someone will let me know I don't really know how you take a shower wrong [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] thank you come over [Music] hey [Applause] what's up what's going on uh not not too much I was surprised that you pulled me out so early give the signal no um okay did it look like I did yeah I do have a tendency to like sometimes I'll like do that like that's just like a movement I wouldn't I probably did it wasn't even thinking this has actually never happened before I'm so sorry don't be sorry but you're here now so how are things going so far so good I I definitely feel more relaxed today than I did yesterday the anticipation always gets me more than actually the event for example within like five minutes of me getting in there and actually taking the shower I realized that I went looking at anybody's and nobody was looking at my so it was simple enough anyway we should get you back okay [Music] there right there for some paperwork I filed that grievance against officer Williams and at first I was thinking does grievances go anywhere well I don't know it smells good but I got pulled out to talk to the officer who handles all the Grievances this is my opportunity to get this woman fired [Music] that's never ever happened here that they're not going to take this seriously and they're not going to put a stop to it now then there's nothing more than I can do and I'm wasting my time what's going to happen to the officers starting to get in trouble for that I'm not the only one that's happened too I'm just the only one that bitched about it the first one kind of pisses me off the first issue that I appreciated to her everything regarding her is now going through Academy that's all that matters [Music] when it comes remakes and I know full damn well run in different Social Circles kind of register the hairs on the back of my mouth what's your name again okay all right thank you I am very angry and I'm hope and pray that he takes what I tell him seriously and handles it I believe he will [Music] commitment that's I'm hungry I can have fruits vegetables fake stuff [Music] you can't possible I have a food allergy to gluten called celiac disease I cannot have anything with gluten in it my whole life they misdiagnosed me and because of the misdiagnosis I lost 90 pounds my hair fell out my hair was about this short it just sucks you know every time I go to my trays you know nothing there that I can eat because of celiac coming into this program I thought that I would be able to survive because I believed and hoped that they would have fruits and vegetables because I can eat those at this point I've been here for five meals and salad was served once and then they've only had fruit once it's very easy to dismiss it as frivolous but this is my health there's nothing about my health it's frivolous I can get extremely sick throwing up diarrhea so it's really affected my life Janiece is struggling I don't think that she was like me prepared for how bad it was in here their job in this facility is protect everyone they're not protecting her by starving her out [Music] thank you [Music] walking into intake I wasn't really sure what to expect and this has exceeded anything that I would have thought just the sheer noise and pandemonium right there it was disgusting it's so dirty it smells like armpits and stinking butt and vomit it's putrid the girl who Pat me down she absolutely barely touched me so I could have brought in everything that I wanted to bring in there the girls everyone who comes in is is coming down from some drugs [Music] and then they give you the uniform and the shirt is a 4X [Music] there's no this is blood no we can't when they gave me my sheets they were full of blood and I was not willing to take those sheets the rookie guy did give me another set of sheets I appreciate you thank you so much but he kind of looks surprised at the fact that I actually said something and expected new sheets because everyone else upstairs has bloody sheets and they're okay with it please thank you somebody's gonna need a boat [Music] there was no comparison to this pod and what I've seen before on other episodes It's enormous and it was so overwhelmingly disgusting [Music] but spiritually I'm unshakable I'm unmovable and I'm not going to cower down and back down to this I'm determined to make it the full 60 days [Music] [Music] [Music] oh [Music] yeah [Music] good morning [Music] thank you what's going on I'm be honest I expect it to be more had more issues with the inmates but there hasn't been a problem they've they've really welcome women with open arms it's the staff like it's like they they don't they don't care I I just been shaking because I'm like I feel like I'm really about to like Snap because I'm like you don't treat people like this this place sucks it sucks and I want to help out but it's like they are and they're violating every possible human right they are violating wow I do [Music] [Music] what have you found them all the women are locked down I'm in my cell Miss Williams immediately starts taunting inmates they're not in here to be gawked up but this is standards oh I can open the door and then the night shift Sergeant comes I guess to check on Miss Williams is wrong they didn't do whatever they want to it ain't nobody holding them accountable nobody don't understand anything y'all just come up here questioning me about what I had done it but you know Miss Williams shut up shut up I have no idea what's going on but I would love to watch Miss Williams get fired right in front of me that would be my dream and I want her to know that I was the one who was responsible for her getting fired you're welcome [Music] Mrs Williams I think these are not even you know somebody just quick and leaving soon boots and Hamilton Hamilton Ohio all right thank you sir [Laughter] there's a yeah [Music] because I'm ready to fight too if it's a matter of you can't keep track of your emotion when they're threatening you and you're wanting to beat their asses every time I come in here for 12 hours and you handle it like a boss so watch tonight so you're leaving good this is away from my time [Music] oh my God damn she's totally terrible [Applause] she walks out and I'm like I'm dreaming I don't know if she got fired or she quit but I hope that she never is going to come back to jail again that this is the last time she's in this facility burn an elephant I told you step one of my mission is just getting to know people and building a relationship and most things that I do in life I'm socially malleable I consider myself someone who can get along with anybody it has has a lot of friends and has a lot of genuine connections [Music] I want to make these connections but it's hard because these people are just so different than me I'll be honest I started thinking about I'll give them credit where credit's due he's doing great he's meeting everybody why am I not doing that come on [Music] I know I said before I came in here that I was a social chameleon this is like a whole different level of people that I don't relate with so I felt like okay you know maybe I should just kind of dip she had her by the hair throwing uppercuts I don't get entertainment this is it for me [Applause] since I've been in here Dennis hasn't introduced himself at all I think he thinks he's better than me if you wouldn't shake my hand he's just I decided to just go we were told not to leave the unit quit doing all this stupid picture dude I don't need that don't raise your voice up we have some concerns we are now looking at you to help us as soon as possible your mission is to save the program yes sir hi are you okay I failed you're not funny you're really failure listen to me because you're a CEO people are gonna watch this they're gonna see how we came she went out I'm gonna regret it but yeah when they gave me my sheets they were full of blood and I was not willing to take those sheets he kind of looks surprised at the fact that I actually said something I'm the type of guy I can go in any situation and become somebody [Applause] all the seals are soft I'm not gonna sit here and be bullied around everything in my life I'm potentially going through a divorce and Miss Williams abandoned me naked in my room I hope this is the last time she's in this facility I'm hungry I have celiac disease I cannot have anything with gluten in it he just wanted him to give me my commissary [Music] you don't treat people like this it's none and they're violating every possible human right I thought that I wasn't gonna have a hard time making genuine connections this is like a whole different level of people that I don't relate with [Music] customer [Music] thank you [Applause] [Music] [Applause] I don't know why he ran up behind me I think he wanted to maybe intimidate me just kind of feel me out I did regret giving him the ball the way that I did I probably should have probably been a little bit more assertive because that just makes you look like a do I think they bought it no I don't think they bought it up I was like oh I've been busted on the first week that I'm in here man it's just that that hurt [Applause] I'm trying to learn how to just fit in but I don't know if I'm fully doing that here you know Dennis he's doing great he's meeting everybody why am I not being accepted by these people there's a level of comfort in knowing who else is a participant with you but he doesn't really give that sense of comfort to me either so I've been in here Dennis hasn't introduced himself at all but he obviously I know he's there and he knows I'm there so I thought we would get along and be able to talk and stuff but I think he thinks he's better than me but it's out of my control I sat down to play Uno at the dentist a group of people just trying to introduce myself like I would any other inmate in the jail I figured I'd just go by Quincy because it just felt more authentic I put my hand out and he just looked at me and went and checked my hand it pissed me off foreign like disrespects me like that it just makes me not like them when Alex tried to shake my hand I didn't shake his hand because there's people watching you know black guys running in there when it comes to a white guy like Alex I have to let him know like okay can't just come up to me like that I think Dennis does everything to be about Dennis I don't think he was cheering me on and training to help me I think he was trying to make himself look like the tough guy like what like that just take it slow get away from me but I'm not a little and you're not gonna make me look like a little [Music] Dennis is giving everybody else a handshake about me he made it like so extra that was awkward super awkward I don't need to talk to Alex you know I don't owe him anything I think Dennis is just focusing on making himself look good for TV [Applause] his shirt off all the damn time [Music] he walks around like it don't stink okay what's going on I'm be honest I expect it to be more have more issues with the inmates but that hasn't been a problem is to staff like it's like they they don't they don't care what do you want to do [Music] I mean I'm gonna go back I'm gonna go back I just hope I pray my commissary is there because if that's there I'll be okay I can make it through but something's gonna have to give so what are the odds that your commissary is going to come today I don't know [Music] [Music] hey can you hear me we are you really think I can hear you though my husband is on board with me being a part of this program are you at home yeah but we are going through a possible divorce and my husband refuses to talk to me about the divorce until after I'm out of this situation all right I'm gonna go ahead and let you go all right I'm just putting kind of putting a pin in our marriage and we'll revisit that so I've got 21 hours a day in a cell to think about if my marriage is going to fail or not all right okay does that make you feel very trapped I saw Ashley I was surprised that Ashley decided to talk to me but it felt really good they had somebody else and I know didn't hear [Music] um the officers have not seen Miss cray-cray yet but if they don't give me my she's coming out she's coming out I've been here for a couple hours after I came in intake they took my bra so I'm walking around just covering you know my breasts it's really uncomfortable so you just take my bra and then that's it you have to get someone to bring you some whites up here 32 for holding 32 triple deep okay very small [Music] the first time I saw Shanice in the Pod she just has this look on her face like okay I'm over it I feel like she's like a little puppy in a sense and she needs to be cuddled and pampered all right this isn't the place for that we all got problems [Music] me seeing Ashley it was just a sigh of relief but I didn't want to make it seem like we knew each other foreign I was like don't worry girl I got you first one's free um with Ashley our connection was just like we kind of had each other's back my roommate Rita was my biggest protector but she left so I want to be that Saving Grace for Denise and Jen they will not have to go through what I went through I will protect him and I will take care of them she hooked me up it was beautiful it was a beautiful you never realize how much you appreciate something until you don't have it I was truly appreciative for that piece of material does it work you're welcome seeing Shanice and Jen it was extremely motivating and it made me finally feel like I can do this I can get my husband and our marriage off of my mind for a while so game on I now have a team and we are ready to get the job done [Music] don't put a shirt on I've gotten the confidence to kind of just do as I please when I want I didn't care what anybody said what's up hey oh no it's wet it's washing I don't care for yourself man I'm a little small guy Mark Bullard he wanted to say something he just wanted to say something [Music] I'm tired of this shirt business for real he is making me the Target he's a lame-o not worried about him Mark Bullock I'll pass Dennis gives off a super arrogant vibe it's such a blatant sign of disrespect he's just a roses not for me you believe that whatever [Music] since I got in I learned my way around the jail this gel is a big facility there's so many like different pods myself my roommate was telling me about unit six which is sap it's a drug program a lot of people want to get there because it's Freedom down there [Music] there's a lot more go on than sex than it does in four from a Contraband perspective just kind of happened real fast me and my roommate decided to just go complex [Music] I just see Dennis leaving the Pod I have absolutely no idea of what was going on [Music] I don't know if he's trying to pull himself from the program or what but it was very random [Music] thank you I would love to introduce you to Sade because she looks like Sade Jennifer Jennifer her name is Jennifer hi Colin I'm Jennifer this girl is like smart she's brilliant she's awesome first coming in and not having anything it was really hard for me they took my bra just because of a zipper so Ashley made me this makeshift bra but then the word got out here and then my roommate Corey gave me her bra I love you good yeah and then I had another woman make me a bra you're awesome her shirt she like ripped the purple off the shirt and weaved it in and kind of made like this little area where you could get cleavage yes thank you excellent job [Music] people are automatically drawn to me and I don't know exactly what it is people were already complimenting my eyebrows they smile and they giggle tell me I'm beautiful or you know compliment me no there's just something about me it's not many people just in there with 99 teeth and beautiful hair and good lashes she's really smart she's really sweet she really is to be intelligent Jennifer has no anxiety no worries she's getting a lot of attention in a short amount of time I think we had very very different experiences mentoring this facility good girl this is something about it influence you have in the pot what do you hope to accomplish there's a lot of hungry people for a change so my goal is to really just transform this place in helping people change I do have the remedy you can't get any better than Jesus Christ [Music] I love God and I love his people and I just want to spread the words drawing and also I felt blessed that the Holy Spirit brought me all those bras God had Smiled On Me I got a vendetta against you hand through his lips I'm sure I've heard worse I need to walk around so earlier in the day Dennis just left and went to a different pod he hasn't come back I found out that he went to sap unit which to my knowledge is not a part of the jail that's being filmed I don't know how much of the show he's seen before but I know that people are usually kind of placed in pods for certain reasons I think it was stupid of him because it puts the whole program at risk for sure [Music] we have another situation yeah uh it's another first The Sod team came into the men's pod and they asked for volunteers to move to another pod for whatever reason Dennis decided that he was gonna volunteer so they moved him to another unit so now it's a safety concern for us because we can't see him my opinion at least I arrogant he's just going out on his own to try to do his own little thing I'll talk to it all right [Music] um I cannot have anything with gluten in it I mean with the real inmates supposed to do in a situation like this it's been giving me noodles every day and my attitude when I'm hungry my attitude is so bad my ex-boyfriend bought me a shirt that said I'm sorry for what I said when I was hungry but I was just thinking like I'm really about to snap and I'm about to get another 60 or 120 days here Shanice is struggling with the food they say it's no weed and they've been giving me bread but she knows what she signed up to to do I'm hungry I've lost weight since I've been here I hope she hasn't resolved but complaining and complaining it's ridiculous this is not a hotel this is jail it sucks Denise is half starved because they can't give her the proper food [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] one moment we were sitting at the table talking a couple seconds later some girls kicking in his lady's face it just goes to show how things can change in a matter of seconds it's a little scary heard the commotion and I seen them fighting I felt like wow this place is intoxicated with anger and just frustration in the spirit of hate as a police officer normally I would get involved but I don't get TV I don't get entertainment this is it for me I had a front row seat she had her buy the hair and was throwing uppercuts uppercuts uppercuts and I didn't have to do anything it was exciting [Applause] but I love it [Applause] let's go [Applause] I didn't know if we were gonna get pepper spray I didn't know what was gonna happen so I just did what I was told for 22 hours [Applause] all right [Applause] [Music] is that Gator yeah [Music] 60 days in the next door guys yes she left the camera I love a good chef perfect [Music] [Music] why did you move to a different pot yeah I'm such a a good guy you guys wanted me to move today the deal was to find out what you needed to do in that unit we don't need you to go to Unit C we stuck you in a particular unit where you know you're being watched you know there's cameras everywhere and you know that we can get to you in 45 seconds to get you help if something happens to you we told you to stay in that unit okay I didn't know what was going on all right they call me out my room the lady wanted to speak to me the lady said Dennis Johnson pack your bags cut the acting here okay we all straight we know what's going on here let's make something real clear we're expecting you to help us out your safety is our concern okay no you're not not when you go and move to another unit okay they get you back at one of them pods with no cameras in and whoop your butt how we ain't even gonna know to come and get you so what you're going to do is you're going to go back to that unit say you're having some problems with some guys up there and you just don't feel like you need to be in here can I go back to unit four understood understood talk to me like a man and everything's good I've been doing what I can to do to throw everybody off do you understand what you're doing I'm doing this people to UC take their shirt off every day in front of a camera and work out the shirts get wet you know the rules you can't have your shirt off in the Pod I'm playing by the rules did you have yourself it's a yes or no you had it all that's not following the rules all that does is draw attention to you and if we're allowing you to get away with stuff like this they're going to know something's up if they know what you're in there actually doing how safe do you think you would be this ain't some schoolyard some college or some football field this is real life quit doing all this stupid that you're doing I don't need that is your voice up do you understand what you're in here doing this ain't some school yard some college or some football field this is real life quit doing all this stupid trying to look cool and all this kind of stuff I don't need that or is your voice at me [Music] you're in my bill don't turn around anything on me because I promise you I will walk you out the door right now and this will be old when done go in there do what you're supposed to do and do your job simple as that we don't have any more problems we're good all right okay go do your job all right hang in there that you don't have to grip your hand hard trust me that's her look we can cut the camera off and when you have a real talk at the end of the day I do this for a living don't try me she picked from the jump you don't like me he's threatened by me intimidated by me because he thought when I was going to come in he thought I was going to look at me and you know pounce on me but that ain't the case you get what I'm saying I'm in there making it happen this whole situation right here like I can't I can't deal with that you're not gonna talk to me like that no you ain't gonna talk to me like that we got a problem we got a real problem [Music] s okay okay [Applause] that fight was the most exciting thing that has happened since I have been there it was awesome I don't know what kind of monster I am now what has this done to me over here we saw everything same meals [Music] I'm making sure that Shanice didn't have to do it though actually you went around collecting oranges for me that kind of like touched me to know that she had my back about to get emotional now oh my God [Music] [Applause] [Music] let's go huh [Music] [Applause] [Music] this girl came up to me and was like you're on 60 days and we know that you're Undercover [Applause] what the president [Applause] at that point I was just like I don't know anything about this show so I took my popcorn and got out of the conversation because I don't want to Target on my back I asked if I was Undercover some random ass lady nobody has like anything else to talk about I'm gonna write besides look at people that's in here look they're only defense to this because they think I'm pretty and I will take that all day long what can you get off my no get off my you're starting to piss me off for real America now I'm a U.S Marshal hold dude stole from the government I'm like look dude I'm up here on federal charges how much you want me to tell you she's pissing me off [Music] the last thing I want to do is talk about my case all day long yeah how many days I stay in jail don't come in here and pretend to be a pretty Mom unless you wanted what we're going through when you're not get away damn [Music] what happened in six oh they treat me like a king laid out my whole bed for me the other inmates laid down your bed for you yeah when I come in is all respect everything [Music] it kind of bothered me when I first saw it did this come back to the pod the audacity was just beyond me when I was in unit six told the officer hey man I'm just not feeling right I gotta get back down to four but like seriously nobody never said to stay in that particular pot it don't go outside that Park nobody never said anything we don't have cameras in sex so now I know now I know yeah I think there's a part of Dennis that you know doesn't really take the program that seriously I think he wants to be the big shot of the season I think he wants the most camera time I don't think there's any way in you know a week that Dennis could have done anywhere near enough to be cocky enough to think that he could just what pod hop I don't know if that's what he was trying to do think that he would just go from unit to unit maybe could work his way into the female's pod and just be running that I don't know I think it's something about charm it was it was a stupid move rookie mistake Dennis [Music] that meeting I'm still thinking about that she tried to bully me you tried to bully me you tried to bully me but he showed his weakness I'm not intimidated at all I could have just like hit that guy he told me that I had to respect him but there was no respect given on the other side but I'm gonna get my respect I'm gonna get it when the show over I'm gonna talk to Chief Pete and you're not gonna do nothing to nobody twice his size Chief Kee he didn't do nothing white boy you know when I was talking to Dennis what I was trying to do is help him because he was getting himself into a situation that he was not prepared for he could have possibly got hurt and he took that the wrong way Ebola flexed his muscles tried to act like he was the bigger man like he was gonna put me in my place and I think he forgot what his mission was [Music] I'm very concerned about the safety and success of the program because we've got so many major problems we've had the two participants drop out in a short amount of time Matt we thought he was going to get in here and run with it in three days he tapped out I was shocked Jacob he made it in booking for a couple hours with all these participants tapping out with Dennis young Rogue is he going to take this program and sell it out to everybody and put everybody in danger he's just real cocky real arrogant I really don't know what he's thinking and Alex I have my dogs about him so we need to back up and look at what we're doing make sure the program's going to be success yes [Music] I'm Jonathan Horton Sheriff of Etowah County with me is my chief of Corrections Keith Pete we have some concerns we've taken four male individuals and put them in our jail two of them were unsuccessful we are now looking at you to help us as soon as possible and we're counting on you because of your background and I believe you've got the initiative to want to help us your mission is to save the program can you do that for us Tony [Music] yes sir for my commissary I'm about to be eating good yeah he told me I was probably him go get robbed why was it going to be me you better be prepared in here if I was just up into trouble with his commissary I can't help him that's on you what the shocked back into the Pod she's taking her power and using it in the wrong way she gets this really evil Wicked grin on her face and the only way to eradicate evil is to pray my husband filed for divorce is falling apart if I stay here any longer I'm gonna lose my mind I feel broken you're our Salvation to see that this program is successful I can be extremely intimidating I can do damage you ready for this absolutely by the end of this show I want to go down to history as best participant ever with 60 days in ever thank you I consider myself someone who has a lot of genuine connections but it's hard because these people are just so different than me we've been Dennis wouldn't shake my hand he's just a little bit I've decided to just go we were told not to leave the unit beside some school yards some college or some football field this is real life so quit doing all this stupid that you're doing I don't need that anymore it's been pure from the moment I walked in through the door Miss Williams abandoned me naked in my room I hope this is the last time she's in this facility [Music] out of four male individuals two were unsuccessful your mission is to save the program can you do that for us Tony yes sir [Music] this man he's the one that we was most confident was going to have zero problems he made it three days you couldn't get him out of there fast enough Jacob is a correction officer mentally I didn't think he was prepared when he came never made it out of our intake area Alex he's still in our facility he's still nervous so he needs to have that confidence instilled in him we want you to help him over the hump this is Dennis works out every day in front of the camera hoping to make it to Hollywood he's cocky he's arrogant he thinks he's going to be a movie star after this he forgot his purpose which is looking out for us hopefully he gets his head out of his ass and does what's right you coming in is a game changer because this program means the world to me the information the knowledge and what that can lead to to make us a more efficient safe facility and I'm going to try to Build You Up if you've got what it takes I have no doubt that you're going to be successful thank you my name is Tony I'm 32. I'm from Atlanta Georgia I'm a correctional officer at Fulton County Jail one fall in okay good morning everyone in Seasons three and four of 60 days in we actually put undercover participants in this jail I've been there roughly six years respect in jail is everything I have a zero policy for disrespect you have to have structure you have to have water if there's no structure if there's no order there's chaos I'm going to show you some of the Contraband that we get out of our jail weight equipment that people turned into a hammer knives wow an actual knife never ever seen those at my facility you know we don't sell knives on the commissary so how do you think I got in there someone brought it in somebody brought it in with this much Contraband there is definitely some officers who aren't being compromised without a doubt but I'm definitely honestly I'm your guy been a detention officer you have to stay on point and be extremely intimidating forced to be reckoned if I'm back in a corner I'm not going to hesitate to do whatever needs to be done I can do damage we're counting on you you're our Salvation to see that this program is successful you ready for this absolutely I'm pumped I want to see why this facility has to offer and see what feedback I can offer the sheriff as well I want to go down to history as the best participant ever with 60 days in ever oh [Music] my husband and I filed for divorce but we were working on it and we still say that we love each other and we miss each other and he's the one that puts money on my books I think and I pushed him and pushed him was like I need to know because all I'm doing is sitting in the cell and I have no clue where my life is going to be after I walk out of this jail he pretty much told me like you should prepare to be by yourself and I just I died so my marriage is over officially it's been headed that way but when you still love somebody you hold on to hope and that is gone now [Music] I'm depressed I'm sad I'm lonely [Music] emotionally just like a final sense of defeat S [Applause] I was shocked to see Miss Williams walk through that door absolutely shocked why was she there I have tried so hard to get this woman fired and she is still here and I don't understand why I felt like the jail had failed us all it was already a very sensitive heartbreaking day with my divorce and everything and then Miss Williams showed up this is a complete nightmare [Music] [Music] [Music] the whole incident with Chief Peak and and Bullock that just kind of threw me for a loop those guys like really disrespected me from a human being perspective I feel like I'm on my own so I'm gonna take a step back kind of like lay low and do my time Dennis hasn't been the same guy since he's been back in the pot I don't know what was going on with him so with commissary I'd been in there a couple days I was hungry because up until then all I had was pretty much water and the three meals a day that they have if I liked it I was just like ravenously hungry [Music] I knew I needed to have my order in by Sunday to be able to get it by Tuesday so I was definitely anxious to go ahead and get that started I was really hungry it was hard not to over order and I definitely found myself kind of wanting everything it's not a good idea to order commissary at Etowah County Detention Center a couple of guys down sales for me he got the feet out of him over six packs of ramen noodles Distortion your life taking robbed there's just so many negatives that come with just one positive I ordered Butterfingers I ordered Snickers I ordered Chili Cheese Fritos a couple of Honey Buns e-cigarette I ordered peanut butter that was my favorite thing [Music] and it's about 75 80 of the 120 that I got about to be eating good 60 dollars though because that's gonna put a Target on your back we're gonna get that bones and Dalton come up to me bones is a tall lean guy about 6'4 you know tattoos all over you know Aryan Brotherhood Dalton's a young guy he's 20 with long longer blonde hair he's got the teardrop tattoo and they're like hey man just so you know you're probably gonna get robbed you're a young white guy you're not very big you're going to be a Target I wanted to think that maybe they had my best interest in mine but you can't trust anybody in jail [Music] I was a little bit nervous it was the first time that any sort of violence had been alluded to but if I get robbed I'm going to make it as hard for them as possible to take my stuff I was so hungry I was kind of like I was prepared to fight and get my ass kicked take my life before you take my peanut butter [Music] remember your emergency signals I don't think I'll be needing that I definitely think I'm uniquely qualified for this Fulton County Jail offers some of the best training it is out there [Music] feel good about it [Music] good luck to you you don't need luck yes take care of yourself and uh do them a good job I really really do appreciate that that means a lot to me yeah yeah I mean that's like fuel to the fire With His blessings I mean let's go let's let's get it done [Music] Tony how's it going man all right sir how you doing good you ready for this yes sir yes sir all right you know we got a lot of weight in this two guys have skipped out we really got a lot of dependents upon your success Keep Your Head on and know that this is game time Tony's got it the ability to talk carry itself I look for him to bring us the most information he's going to be a real game changer for us I'm ready going in my strategy is to let everyone know that I'm not to be played with I will fight you I'm gonna find out where the drugs at who bring it in if his officers inmate workers or whoever yeah I'm definitely going to be a key player hands down no no questions asked foreign [Music] [Music] I walked in the intake guy had his feet up I could tell he was probably high on something [Music] so at that point I just moved the form [Music] he had big bulky Pockets Point outside his package he was like fill in this package didn't realize he didn't feel the money it's like oh [Music] dug my money man [Applause] okay all right all right guys [Music] I'm in intake when it's already crazy about to see a little fighting okay all right all right I'm gonna show you one of them come get it all right yes I know not to trust your ass foreign County Jail it's a different type of Beast [Music] hey man [Music] your reels [Music] inmates are watching they're watching me and the images I'm putting off is don't play with me I don't laugh and joke with with people [Applause] oh and then when I walk on the cell my cell is nasty I got burnt marks all in my floor got cigarette like blunt roaches all over the bed the wrong State just nasty this facility is horrible but you know if I can fix it I mean that's what I'm gonna do this it was Mother's Day a very sensitive heartbreaking day in unit 5. most of those women in there are mothers so emotions are already super high then Ms Williams shows up three times [Applause] on Mother's Day on Mother's Day we just wanted to call home foreign [Applause] Miss Williams likes to take away our free time just because she can all I wanted to do was talk to my mother my mother has never been without me for Mother's Day she took that away from us because she feels like she has that power she is so disrespectful she's taking her power in using it in the wrong way Mother's Day Theo Williams abuses her Authority it's absolutely unacceptable [Music] dealing with Miss Williams she does not need to work around people animals she didn't even she's not even fit to work around plants [Music] everybody's breaking down everybody's on edge I'm on edge I don't want to be here any longer than I have to be but I'm going to snap off on Miss Williams can't take anymore [Music] I feel it coming [Music] oh [Music] on Mother's Day because Miss Williams came in we were all locked down foreign this is ridiculous she said I told y'all y'all wasn't gonna have no free time it's Mother's Day I'm supposed to talk to my mom you know and then you want to be a Shanice is going to lose it on Miss Williams I do she was completely intoxicated with anger and just frustration that power has gotten to her head it was just emotional day for all the inmates everyone was missing their families and their children and you know their moms I wasn't with my family pray Lord according to your word that if I abide in you and you abide in me father that I can ask anything and it shall be done when I look into Miss Williams eyes I see the devil and the only way to eradicate evil is to pray speaking in tongues is a gift of the spirit it's a Heavenly language enables me to battle things that I cannot see I feel like I have the ability to help change these girls lives in this facility by praying for them and I 100 feel like that's why I'm here thank you thank you [Music] hello hello tell you what I've never wanted peanut butter so that's my entire life did you get crunchy or creamy love how you think we have an option commissary was going to come on Tuesday I ordered probably more commentary than I should have when Dawn and Bones first told me to be prepared you're probably gonna be a Target you're young you're white yeah I mean I got I got a little nervous I didn't want to show that I was freaking out obviously though I went and took off like 20 dollars worth of commentary out of my order [Music] yeah people told me yeah when Big Show came up to me then I started to think well maybe I am a Target I was scared I was I was nervous I started thinking like why why was it going to be me [Music] I wasn't the only white person so why are you saying that it's going to be me specifically [Music] it's a tough situation to be ganged up on and feel like you don't you don't have anybody you better be prepared in here I didn't have the pull with anybody yet to really stop that from happening if it was going to happen through these criminals bullied it's a feeling whether you're a kid or whether you're you know an adult [Music] when I was in junior high I was overweight I was kind of awkward so I got picked on pretty pretty badly it's very it's very tough to come back from that three different people told me get in their own way yeah I think there'll always be times where it kind of comes back to haunt you that makes me a targeted to be a Target but I mean I can't defend myself [Music] it's Mother's Day but we're locked down and we're unable to talk to our families [Applause] she allows us out to take showers and that's it [Applause] the next group that went in included a girl named Misty [Music] Misty was pissed that this Mother's Day had been taken away from her did you get away with me yes you are you are a she went up to the officer's desk called her a [Music] do something about it man that's why you're here and then received a full can of pepper spray to the face [Applause] [Music] [Music] they took her out to Medical brought her back locked her in herself Miss Williams she is such a mean woman how can you be guarding inmates when you're acting like one of them your fat ass who talks like that she is very abusive with her words if I talk that way on my job I wouldn't have a job yeah [Music] this is a guard saying this to an inmate who still has burning pepper spray who is locked behind a door every time it's like taunting a puppy in a cage it's ridiculous wow [Music] if I had not been in there watching that and listening to it I wouldn't believe it I wouldn't [Music] [Music] I don't know [Music] it's door day in the Pod and it's where everybody gets all their commissary all their candy chips and everything like that [Applause] I woke up there was still the fear of getting robbed [Music] so when I saw Alex ordered a lot of storage would definitely put eyes on them Target on your back [Music] your back little white boy are they about to come get it [Music] if Alex gets himself into trouble I can't help them that's on you you know I got to protect myself [Music] foreign my strategy of going into commissary is to get it I didn't want to draw any attention to myself I wanted to get it and go I got out of there and just beelined it thank you that's a jungle [Music] you all good got back in the room kind of was going through my inventory [Music] [Applause] and I see it the jar of peanut butter and I rip open that freaking jar see I want a spoonful of peanut butter I rip on the peel I lick the freaking top I don't care and I grabbed my Spork that I got to and just get a fat scoop I probably killed 25 of the jar just right then and there God it was the best four dollars ever spent in my life [Music] Christmas morning I went out in the day room and I had the e-cig in a Cove everybody in their freaking brother coming up to you asking for a hit so they're not taking little Puffs you know they're they're going to be like just cheap in it it reminds me of just like feeling like I'm used like you know the only way that I could be cool with people was to give them something and I I just don't I don't like that [Music] after that I was like I'm never taking this thing out of the room again worst horrible decision [Music] [Music] I'm walking around with the pod I just got a certain presence about myself a certain demeanor it's pretty noticeable I see Dennis and Alex Alex is no good he don't do nothing [Music] Dennis is coming off more with a software approach like a big brother or a older Uncle I just got here yesterday I know that you don't have to be soft in jail you can be straightforward and people will not think that you're up to something more you are the police [Music] myself mate Danielle all you want to do is smoke and get high smoke and get hot they smoke clone all day come on man that's the drugs with like roach spray in it you see the flame see how we got it he's like a junkie I'm 33 years old I've been coming here since I was 18. I love to smoke ice I love to smoke weed I love to smoke cone a snot Coke too I swore a little Heron every now and then but I just love the smoke man everybody come in my room and smoke it and it's swinging like a crack house you know when you was here by yourself or your previous cell met you know they probably was cool with you smoking some fun not me [Music] myself mate he's always Stone all his friends come in here and wanted to smoke that's not gonna happen while I'm in here yo I come back in it's like three guys in there one got a wick and one smoking some phone I mean these guys are okay I don't trust him bringing people in everybody just walk in the cell smoking blunts so I put a stop to that smoke around bro [Music] from the jump I'm letting them know if you don't like it you can get out my cell now [Music] ain't no disrespect I'm gonna smoke that be real I'm trying to get in yeah I ain't got time for no free world just straight up what's up Brad while we in here why I run this you know just straight up just how it is that's my word [Music] [Music] wake me up with you [Music] Miss Williams took away our free time on Mother's Day [Music] and then she decided that she would not allow us to sleep just banging and banging on the walls just taunting us as a group why are you doing that because I want you to get up and do it too I'm asking you to stop I got no classes in the morning yes I am I'm a child I'm a child [Music] what must we've been tripping tonight she's worse than the inmates she gets this really evil Wicked grin on her face horrible I was angry I was really angry with her abuse of power [Music] [Applause] I am never in my life seen this [Music] she made her nights a living hell [Music] why did you turn the lights on she was also turning the lights off and then back on all night long I am here waging psychological warfare on is an evil human being for 12 hours we're under This Woman's thumb with no help we can't scream for help you are the help who are you who are you [Music] for real she drives joy out of demeaning foreign don't want to sit here and continue to have my mental health beaten down [Applause] if I stay here any longer I'm gonna lose my mind [Music] happy Mother's Day good night [Music] one by one they caught us all in the room it's embarrassing for sure it makes you feel like less than a man Danielle he don't like to take baths that's a major problem for Justin and I foreign is like a little puppy in a sense and she needs to be coddled and pampered this isn't the place for that [Music] [Music] after the fight I was talking to a guy Tony he is making me think he's the participant I don't know why so you want to stay foreign in my strategy is to let everyone know that I'm not to be played with while we in here I run this okay I ordered probably more commissary than I should have those that don't come up to me and they're like hey man you're probably gonna get robbed I wanted to think that maybe they had my best interest in mind but if you can't trust anybody in jail the whole incident with Chief Pete and bullet those guys really disrespecting you know from a human being perspective this is real life quit doing all this stupid what you're doing I don't need that feel like I'm on my own so I'm gonna take a step back and do my time it was Mother's Day emotions are already Super High the Miss Williams shows up come on we can't scream for help you are the help [Music] thank you why are you laughing I'm not grumpy yeah you are no I'm not it's too early for all of that well whatever nobody's awake what are you doing I'm not okay what happened I'm not okay we're being psychologically and emotionally abused in this facility we have a guard that works here that has a sick mind and like to use our position of Authority for official oppression against us and it is too crowded in this facility to be going on okay what's going on so I have never seen a cop or a corrections officer violates somebody like we were violated I've been a police officer for six years and I have never witnessed official oppression this is a big deal in America and this is really the first time that I'm truly seeing it and now I don't know how I'm gonna be able to move forward and do my job so you want to stay or you want to go [Music] since I've been in here people know not to mess with me um it's not a matter because I'm big or I'm intimidating but that is a factor don't get me wrong however I can fit in pretty good well apparently he's not I've been hanging out with this guy named Justin Bieber I don't know if I've seen him he went around and asked for somebody's food or it was something he did and I was like okay we're like like that like that stuff like that bothers me because I mean he seemed like a pretty cool guy oh DUI on my 21st birthday I'm young I don't know what to do scared to death it's straight heartbreaking I have a family this place ain't for me luckily my friend Tony he's not a drug addict you know we got families to feed let's get out of here Justin's a family man I'm a family man I can relate to him 100 um he love his kids you know we just click we really did just just just we just clicked thank you [Applause] that's a good question yes how did you move Justin into yourself Justin go get you come on I wanted Justin to myself for his protection I mean let's just be honest he's white and he's small and he's up top all the blacks are up top mostly all the whites are at the bottom he's extremely vulnerable so imma look out for him to feed him I'm gonna you know look out for him take him out of my wing like a little big like a big brother type deal [Music] [Music] when we just woke up and there was no Ashley I was shocked foreign I feel like she would regret it I feel like you will put a lot of faith in me and then I have failed you so I'm stressed about struggling with whether or not I want to continue with this program because it this continuing with this may cost me my my mental health and if if I stay here any longer I don't know if I'm going to be able to continue to do my job as a police officer but at the same time I cannot stand by and watch 118 women be officially oppressed by somebody who's taken an oath to be in a position of authority over them so you want to stay or do you want to go I don't want to let her win so I'm not going home I'm gonna stay here I feel like I am one of the only people that can really protect these girls at this point yeah to make sure that this never ever ever happens to any woman in custody Etowah County ever again [Music] thank you [Applause] good on that Wednesday morning I woke up and then right after that you see the The Sod team side team come in raid in people's rooms there though [Applause] I said I just didn't want to get in any trouble I didn't want to get busted I care less what was going on out there 6 30 in the morning they pulled all of us out I think it was a random Shakedown scary situation because unfortunately I don't know what my roommates have in the cell [Music] s [Music] yes oh there was something there was something after that one by one they caught us all in the room boxers they made us take off all of our clothes and do the whole like Squat and cough which surprised me because I didn't have to do that at booking thank you I need to pants in the boxes real quick yeah it's embarrassing for sure it makes you feel like less than a man [Music] yeah one by one they caught us all in the room they made us take off all of our clothes [Music] all right like what could I have done I couldn't resist the strip search and then I'm just gonna get you know placed in isolation it sucks when like you feel like you have no power it did take me back to Junior High when I got I got picked on a good bit I've worked pretty hard to like get over a lot of those issues but um now they're coming back to Steve roommates very sweet are we having some weird spiritual dreams here there's a lot of demonic activity [Music] there are demons in this place there are demons in Etowah County last night in my dream I even had sex with me right that I couldn't even see what I could feel let it cry out to one of my aunts for help and then it turned into like a kid every day that was horrible and I was casting and reviewing it it was they looked at me and laughed oh Lord right you know she's like wow in my dream I mean I didn't see anything but this is feeling the penetration of something you know in your sleep crazy but it's the truth in the nighttime infliction warlocks and things that he grew come against Christians satanic things happen through the night and I don't know they're just trying to mess with me while I'm sleeping yep that's all it is probably people in here that most Spirits within them there are so many demonic presences in this place [Music] violence addiction depression hopelessness and so the only way I know how to fight is biblically I'm not shook I'm not wondering I'm not negotiating with the Enemy tonight when we pray I'll just you know like put the devil in this place and not allow them in this room there was absolutely major spiritual warfare going on and I'm gonna win [Music] that doesn't work that is a roach [Music] I've been trying to act as a mentor to Justin um I definitely think he's a great guy but however with Danielle my other cell mate I am still struggling [Music] come on Danielle he don't like to take baths that's a major problem for Justin and I he's charging with like criminal trespassing or something like that um so most time when people are charged with that they're probably homeless in that type of world people don't shower every day people don't take care of themselves [Music] foreign [Music] don't matter if you take a shower and then put the same stinking clothes on you still stink bro it's just a matter of time for that get right back on you yeah I don't do this thing I I I I I'm cleaning [Music] right away I'm in my cell I'm finally getting some sleep it's the middle of the night and I hear the door open and then pops misplay him Ashley I was wondering if you were being interested thank you I'm trusty excuse me what would you like to be trusty I said uh sure [Music] I think the reason she did that was because I am articulating excellent complaints against her I believe her response to that is to just treat me like I'm honey thank you you haven't been in trouble you've been around I've been married there I am trusty hand-picked by my arch nemesis herself weird keep your friends close your enemies closer right sure miss Williams I'd love to trust you for you tonight whatever you just wait on breakfast I'm okay am I the first participant to ever be a trustee ever it's never happened before hey you're being trusted we're gonna be out like we get to be out past you know take showers with just a group of Trustees instead of everybody we get to just sit and watch TV a little bit longer than everybody else it's a lot of work like you got a lot to do but what else do you have to do with your time [Music] I was ready to serve trees serve ice sweep and mop and clean and wipe off tables I was just happy to be physically moving I need 10 more and in terms of completing my mission I can observe the officers a lot better who have become my targets [Music] thank you hallelujah thank you [Applause] before going into jail I did my research you know watch some shows watch some movies but nothing can prepare you for physically mentally emotionally just all of that this comes with being in jail I was really excited to see Shanice when she first came in there because it was like okay I have an ally I think I've made more apples from here than I've had in the last spot and I try to be very encouraging but now she's just continuously stirring the pot and she's only talks about herself and her food yesterday out yeah she's irritating me Shanice is not doing well the fact they can't get my food right now I just I have a hard time with grown people whining I can't take it this isn't the place for that I'm on edge right now and I feel it [Music] [Applause] [Music] I never start something not to finish it here this is crazy but it's getting to be a lot it keeps getting more and more crowded [Music] extremely crowded thank you [Music] so I decided to get this haircut today I was hoping it would help me fit in but I probably shouldn't have done that my hair a little shorter than I wanted to so I definitely have a cop haircut right now but I'm not a cop after that I was in my cell taking a nap yeah six I didn't know anything about like moving he was I was like where am I going he said six and I thought for a second I was about to like Switch and Go to a different like unit or something he's like oh 406. to 406 good luck man why am I moving I don't know there's confusion at first because you don't know exactly why you're getting moved what happened to you I have no clue dude they told me not that I swear to God I don't know but um it's out of my control I get in my two Summits I'm Summits with uh their names are Dalton and Bones these are actually the same guys that were the first ones to warn me that I was going to be a target for getting robbed [Music] all right I've been really confused I knew that moving in with them was going to add a whole new element well first of all I was gonna have to tell the whole story all over again in detail and second of all they're like known Hustlers and stuff and so I know I was gonna have to get involved in all that so there's a panic that sets in because I know as soon as I get in there they were gonna shut the doors and the questions are going to start coming foreign 's just one of those people he'll talk and he'll talk and he'll talk so once he asks me about the story he's asking me all these questions he's like this is what you need to do what do you mean you don't have a court date yet and I'm talking bones has like a pen and paper is asking me a question he was getting suspicious because I don't talk to talk I don't really walk the walk this haircut damn sure didn't help who's your lawyer yeah you gotta have one been a few weeks give me no court paycheck again sometimes you see you raise your rights of London I wasn't sure what you meant so I said yes did they buy your cover story I think I sold it a little bit better to them than I did the first time that I told it in the Pod do I think they bought it no thank you Wednesday it was crowding in the sky Thursday it was crowded in the sky yesterday it was crowded in the sky I don't know where she's at yeah thank you [Applause] so you gave the signal is there an emergency to me there he is I I definitely see everybody's breaking down everybody's on edge I'm on edge I have never in my life seen this so you know that the emergency signal is for emergencies is there an emergency I don't I think there could be one hour I don't want out now no I don't I don't want that now I'm committed so committed that my mom just ordered me some stuff from Alabama packaging so I'll have comments anyone be here for a couple weeks so um so what do you putting in for me so um I I the energy is very off I just I feel on edge because I know something's getting ready to happen I feel it coming I feel it coming is there an emergency no but um you know okay so just to be clear the emergency signal is for serious emergencies okay let's get you back [Music] oh my god well he's dead I've been a trustee for a couple days and of all people to name me trustee is Miss Williams my arch nemesis I was not expecting that but I feel like it helped with my cover story a little bit which is good because if word gets out that I am a police officer I will probably be in the hospital [Music] it's not we went out to a particular cell of an inmate who has mental health problems who has been neglected her toilet has not been functioning For What appears to be weeks [Music] there was feces a concave over the top of the toilet bowl also urine and ripped up books and papers stuffed down I believe there was also a towel and some clothes as well I somehow have assumed leadership position to tackle this room I'm directing them all right girls we've got this Miss Lee go downstairs get some trash bags Amber stand by and do this that was fun for me in a weird way at this point I feel like I've gotten closer to some of the trustees and the officers and as far as my cover goes I'm floating right along in the middle and not drawing attention to myself what's up Andrew what's up I have no idea did you put in a request s I did nothing they came and woke me up and told me what am I Inc report desk no baby I saw from the government [Music] all right [Music] all phone calls are subject to monitoring and recording hello hello what are you doing just getting back from the bank so pissed off right now why because like when they're taking a nap where the seal comes in it tells me to grab my stuff it tells me I'm moving two cells over but it's actually the people that I'm in with they're like they're like they're just like sketchy they're always they're always trying to make a play they're always trying to sell something oh yeah so pissed off don't lucky on that one assuming like more and more pointless each day like I just don't get it I just seem stupid like I just want to go home my new cell mates Dalton and Bones they are definitely participants in the in the drug issue that goes on in the jail [Music] they smoke clone which is uh tobacco sprayed with God knows what chemicals on it and it makes me feel a little bit nervous because there's always a risk of a cop coming in and I don't want to be facing a felony for somebody else's drugs I'm weighing out my options smoking the Clone should definitely be good for my mission I think establishing that kind of relationship where you're smoking drugs together that's obviously not allowed kind of takes away some of those barriers scared like it was weird so I said win in Rome and I I smoked a joint with him [Music] I'm sorry Mom [Music] hey [Music] people are telling stories and in my old cell about oh that'll make you you know eat people's faces off and you know go crazy none of that happened I didn't I didn't get a taste for human flesh I just kind of was just buzzing nobody I wanted to kind of get that establishment with them like yeah he's cool or he's not a snitch he's not gonna and a rat on us and now that I smoked it I think I have the opportunity to kind of get in with them and kind of that whole drug using crowd [Music] you don't want to be a square you got to smoke drugs if you got them you know smoke them if you got them they're pretty well like I was right at the end I sucked it the wind went down I feel like Justin now um he's starting to get more confidence being around me I feel I feel like he's coming out of his shell like now he's a little more confident look you know got his chest out a little more but Justin and Danielle is becoming the major problem there's no Saints all that bro that ain't ever been washed I can't be looking like pigpen bruh I ain't used to that bro oh yeah you wanna watch your ass today no what are you doing for real you smell like you make babies and I know a solid weekend yesterday you said Monday was the day so today is the day so we're in all three of us um prior to that Justin was like hey man you know I'm tired of Danielle not want to shower this and that you keep saying shower your sheets are crusty Brown bro I'm really including my people's ass too like that's to the point I'm at I've asked you too many times nicely yeah what's your grown ass okay foreign Justin caught him hit him like maybe three times and Danielle hit him in the back of the head really good Justin push then heel back in the toilet his right hand fell in the toilet and I think Chester hit the side of his face all right that's enough that's enough that's enough that's enough that's enough you can wash your hands bro so at the end at that point Danielle he thank you [Music] So Justin's your boy do you feel like you had his back yeah 100 Tony just stood there he jumped up on his ball [Music] it's broke there's no doubt in my mind it's it's broke hey get that stinking ass [Music] I can't say much other than I wish he would have intervened and like broke it up or been like nah bro you're gonna bathe [Applause] I don't like any of this see just because it's like this if my brother get in a fight in jail and if it's a one-on-one fight I'm not jumping in I'm not one of them guys that say oh I'm a fight regardless no I'm not I feel betrayed you know like I feel like he's not there to help me no more [Applause] do you feel like Justin expected you to jump in um I don't I mean maybe he did maybe if he did I mean I'm not I will listen I am looking out for Justin [Music] however I I won't be there I'm not your daddy Justin started to fight as far as I'm concerned and the winner win the loser lose [Music] after the fight we're talking upstairs and um I was talking to a guy on one of the guys that was in there Tony went around [Music] I think the first time I seen him was uh late last week maybe Friday or Saturday last week or whatnot tall big guy nobody really messes around with them and stuff like that everybody everybody fears Tony but I'm not worried about Tony at all why he's giving me the like he he's making me think he's uh is a participant I don't know why I don't know why I'll figure it out though Dennis definitely followed me around he watched what I do how I move Tony's definitely a participant and uh anything natonia can do I think I can do better every day I have to hear from Shanice we know that there's issues in the jail I'm tired of hearing about it I don't fit in it's more than I feel like I can handle this environment is extremely dangerous I know for a fact there's a lot of weapons in here [Music] use your motor okay how long have you been in here he's asking me all these questions like what do you mean you don't have a court date yeah [Music] smoking would definitely be good for my mission so I said when in Rome and I I smoked the joint with him I'm sorry Mom am I the first participant to ever be a trustee I was ready to serve Trey serve ice sweep and mop and I can observe the officers a lot better who have become my targets knees needs to be cuddled and pampered she has only talked about herself she's irritating me from the jump people know not to mess with me I can fit in pretty good everybody fears Tony but I'm not worried about Tony at all why he he's making me think he's a participant [Music] come on [Music] foreign know that I am participating Tony is definitely a participant I just know that for sure but I know how to keep my mouth shut the last couple weeks kind of threw me for a loop but now I have a new profound understanding of why am I in there and yeah I'm killing it I own it now [Applause] my name is still ringing inside the jail because I'm a known guy I play quarterback my whole life and I just feel like I'm a quarterback in here too as well so people do look up to me I think they consider me a pop-off Dennis claims that he has reached pod boss status do you see that no not at all no [Music] Dennis is definitely notified boss no why because you work out curious to know what he do for a living I guarantee if I sit behind somebody's desk somewhere work from home or something sell insurance or something he's an interesting character we talk a lot but oddballs [Laughter] what's up bro right they ain't got no locks on the door in 2019. you know what I mean yeah yeah so it's like I need a reminder I'm here by myself right Tony he was like look man I'm trying to get me a a banger and uh what's the Banger a banger is uh something that you can stop somebody with it's a shank basically that's what they call it in there they call it they call it bangers they call it fire smoke they call it every day I'm gonna show you some of the Contraband that we get out of our jail wow the actual knife I came here with a purpose one of my goals is to get me a shank I don't plan on leaving until I reach what I set out to do [Music] what's up if it's a shank and I can get the shank [Music] I am going to get a shame before Tony I'm trying I am going to get one so it's game time and Dennis is too green anything that Tony can do I think I can do better [Music] [Music] it's a sweet gig to be a trustee but all the trustees this weekend have been sick they've had back problems or they've got new medications so I nominated Jen to be trusty she really really wanted it and I wanted to provide her that opportunity [Music] behind me I became a trustee like Ashley do you like it do you like it yeah good night do it I'm absolutely loving it as a trustee I don't feel like I'm in prison except for the pool filled toilet s I love Jen I love working with her I kind of like my big sister because you're just as weird as I oh yeah for sure it's made us have a really really tight bond with a tight friendship totally so weird like what I'm about to do right now gosh Jennifer and Ashley should definitely be careful have a good day them being trustees it could bring a lot more negative attention to them I'm good I don't want to be trusty I don't want to be an alignment I don't want to piss people off I was just being myself I already deal with a lot and I knew mentally I would come in here because I knew I had the gluten intolerance to go against but my roommate Tiffany she is going to be a bit much you see what I do now she's always taking these drugs I've never been around that type of stuff before so you know marijuana yeah but like hardcore drugs no yeah you know what I'm saying because I have I have devilish friends that likes to give it to me how do you get that from [Music] everybody always follow me I might not do the right things all the time but I know what I'm talking about she don't with nobody Angel is Kingpin she's selling drugs she the one have it all you know the police don't like her I run the unit I'm the one to do it she's one of the people we call like the Pod boss and she's good friends with my roommate which sucks really I'm hearing her do that I was thinking oh my God are we gonna get caught in my ass paranoid like I'm doing something I already feel sick and I don't need her some cocaine or crack or whatever it is in my room if she's doing this now what's next hey toilet and my sink not working the time to eat boys cutting a line pisses me off it's the same people that do it every day it's such a blatant sign of disrespect it's like dude the line is literally around the stairwell and like what gives you the right to come up and cut in line that's why you're in jail because you didn't learn basic respect like that on the streets maybe I should say something but is it better to just wait the 30 seconds and let the one person do it but then you know you let one person do it when I was 10 people pretty soon The Cutting line is longer than the actual line then there's Dennis I've been four or five spots back up a line I've seen Dennis come right in front of everybody including me is definitely disrespecting me when he when he does that once an a-hole always an a-hole put in line yes I do they already know like this is how it runs in here me cutting the line that's how I show like status I was you know my Approach To His approach totally different he doesn't have a lot of friends in there oh yeah this place is really like it's getting to me super hard I don't fit in I tried getting this haircut I tried smoking cologne it's just it's not it's not working hard right here it's just I just feel so far out of my element [Music] and it seems like every day it's getting worse I thought I'd be like more by the Pod like I thought I thought it would be pretty in by now it's just like I I just feel like what am I really doing respect in the Pod and it's gotten more and more frustrating the point where now I don't even know what to do [Applause] workout I'm depressed right now come on now don't be depressed the main things that I'm struggling with in here I have a breakout for my gluten sensitivity my roommate's doing cocaine they're doing clone my feet are swollen and now they're hurting so I got a laundry list of issues that I'm trying to work through if it was just a couple I could do it but it's a lot [Music] I went to that doctor they didn't do anything [Music] Chinese is not doing well she complains continuously and I cannot tolerate it my feet are swollen and they gave me pasta again or whatever it is it's ridiculous to me so I just smile and Nod and oftentimes just get up and walk away but I can't get away from her every day I have to hear from Shanice and I don't quite understand how you can knowingly go to jail with all of these health problems and allergies thinking that they were just going to cater to you [Music] what more can we do for you we know that there's issues in the jail I'm tired of hearing about it [Music] oh my God I mean this is Non-Stop or prisons jails universities Jennifer is just being a butthole don't ever belittle what I have going on Shanice she did way over her head she's not built to be here Jennifer you you don't know what I've been through you don't know what this disease has done to me so go kick rocks with Jesus sandals and say probably [Music] I went ahead and bought the 17 radio and some headphones on commissary I like music and I knew it would be a good distraction it helps me to kind of get out of myself to walk around with the radio I was gonna ask you guys like what's going on out you know you see them come out of cell and just walk around all day long like all day he got the same Poker Face all day every day I could go in there and just be a fraud on the law and just sit but that's not what I'm here for Alex I don't know [Music] some guy stopped me that I never talked to before and he asked if he can borrow the radio for the night he just kind of caught me off guard to the point where I kind of stumbled instead of just saying no right away so I was like I'll give it to you but like you got to give it back to me the next like breakfast the next morning I'd have a tendency if I want to say no I'll kind of dance around it but you can't give these people an inch or they'll you know bug you and bug you but he caught me in a weak moment and uh he probably got the best of me on that blending out my stuff has given me problems before this day like when everybody in their freaking brother took hits of my e-cigarette everybody's out for themselves it sucks [Music] I gave someone my Radiohead I'm gonna make a mistake you're taking a lot of risks man it's like your car I didn't want to do it but like if I he was like press me about it [Laughter] I didn't want to argue with him about the radio which I shouldn't have to argue about it's mine I freaking paid for it you don't think he would actually keep that radio though right or like make a big deal don't give it a bag I guess I would have to fight I really don't want to yeah you beat him up for me I don't need a trouble on there I don't have the ability to go full inmate and be hard and get in people's faces so I just feel like it's gonna be hard getting the radio back foreign what if I get hit or what if somebody does beat me up this is like a real fear that I'm having this place is so far removed from everything I've known and it's pushed me way out of my comfort zone getting anxious and like nervous and if it's more than I feel like I can handle [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Applause] be socially malleable like I I've been in a lot of other situations in my life but coming to this jail I feel like has like reopened a wound for me and that wound just one of constantly worrying what other people think about me and how I'm perceived it's regressing me to a point that I haven't really felt since I was like a fat kid in like fourth fifth grade where I really didn't have like friends or anything say more about that it kind of gets me back to the point where I was and like you know I'm getting picked on when I was younger [Music] having a leg bye friends and stuff you know it's a very dark time of my life I don't really talk about it that's why I didn't bring it up before why not why didn't you talk about it uh I just don't like to talk about things that are hard to talk about uh I just like to pretend they're not there I don't know who to be when I'm in here just like I didn't know who to be back then and I'm scared that I'm gonna get beat up here say something stupid to the wrong person and get jumped like I I'm just yeah this is this place is really like it's hell and it's so much harder than I I thought it I thought it would be and it's it's more than I feel like I I can handle yeah yeah [Music] um something this is not a safe environment for the inmates this environment is extremely dangerous I know that this place is infested weapons so I want to find a shank I tell one person and before I knew it people just coming up looking to help me get whatever there's been no suspicion of me because I'm so aggressive I tell them I just need to make a little money while I'm here and I want to shame so they're thinking he want a shame no he don't he ain't the police he can't be I was saying I came in together your intake together he come in act crazy you know talking real loud so he can probably get me what I need he said well I got some fire for he's refer to his five five that's what they call Shanks in jail we walked in the bathroom and he showed me this Shank he had it right here wrapped in here this is the hiding spot for everything he brushed it up against you I feel it he said he can make me a good one so we're trying to figure out a deal solution I agreed to give O'Shea 10 soups for the shank so I see Tony now she talking and stuff like that Tony's definitely trying to get a shank so now I gotta Step Up get one as soon as I can how are you gonna get it not sure yet but it's always you know figured out I'ma get it oh sure he's working on this thing now so I don't know we'll see I don't trust any inmates in here and I don't plan on giving him comments here until he presents the shame I will show y'all [Music] [Applause] [Music] I think this Jennifer is a bit much I was trying to tell her the stuff that I've been through and she made her smile remark like well it is jail and I was like okay so yeah that kind of that kind of ticked me off because I've been through a lot I think she doesn't understand my condition I don't know if she thinks that you know I'm trying to do it to get attention just like some people may think you're a fake Christian you know but that's not my place to say we're gonna fix it wow wow I'm taking him down wow using prayer for every situation that's something that I don't understand [Music] at all by giving the increase and so father we thank you for the increase this morning I think that always saying let's pray on it and talking in tongues too much it's too much Jennifer is all about drama and attention like just give me a break in Jesus name she's wearing on me in Jesus name hey [Applause] I'm really tired of it [Music] now yeah they told me that I was going home Alex yeah [Music] I definitely felt like an outsider in there you got the essentials that you do even if I got along with Dennis that would have been cool to have somebody like kind of do what I was going through and I could I could be myself but that didn't happen so well yeah Alex leaving honestly that that really don't surprise me when I saw Alex walking with his bed and everything I figured he cracked Under Pressure oh I think he just felt like out of place [Music] [Music] possible I wish I could have took him under my wing kind of introduced him to a lot more people and make them feel more at home because I think he just didn't know too many people it wasn't easy at all [Music] got the best of me [Music] bye [Music] my roommate Tiffany came in and she said Asia needs you to pee for her and I was like what a little bit out I was like what like I just start stuttering drugs Angel is scary I don't want to piss her off you know I've been doing uh I'm trying to think what stays on my system I'm like that's what we it ain't in there now you've been in here a couple weeks I was like thank you but no thank you I'm not gonna do this next thing I know Angel's at the door staring at me I've always been a leader not to follow if you cross me we got a problem [Music] [Music] [Music] pretty cool [Music] [Music] and I'm glad over the top I'm here I raised you early so I did P for Angel I never thought that I would be paying for anyone in jail I mean I was told that between me and the pregnant girls we were probably some of the cleanest people in there so I wasn't thinking like I normally do because I just I don't feel well like physically and I don't want to have an altercation with Angel after I did it I had all kind of things going through my mind what if she doesn't pass she's gonna try to fight me but he's gonna have to try to fight her back but I feel like I just do it and whatever happens happens this is serious I definitely could get in trouble [Applause] [Music] this is weird I would pen my leaving much more on internal struggles than any anything specific it may not seem like that much was going on but there's stuff going on in my own head my parents would be disappointed hey uh I I pulled myself I started going crazy like the last three days that's why I didn't call you [Music] miserable in there forever [Music] I know I mean in hindsight I'd probably should have talked to somebody earlier but I just I just let it build and kept everything in and got to me I love you all right I love you too bye bye she's probably disappointed but she was probably thinking of me as more of a more of a quitter than anything I kind of wanted a total break and disconnect from my family for a little bit just to totally live on my own and do whatever I wanted to do but maybe I'm not quite ready to fully you know be on my own and totally away from my parents I still need them [Music] I probably was making it worse in my head than it actually was I might have been giving up a little bit so I don't think it's totally fair to say that I did the right thing [Music] [Music] myself [Music] hey I can't remember I got something for you let's go you ready [Music] wait boys [Music] imagine yeah [Applause] [Music] so at the P for Angel and now she's getting released [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] comes over to me and says I gave Angel some of my urine what do I say to that I had to just walk away I am not on board with that Janiece doesn't know I'm a cop I don't like that behavior obviously she doesn't care about these women and she's not really seeing the big picture so I'm extremely Furious Denise needs to go home I want you gone [Music] all right [Applause] hello [Applause] [Music] man I miss y'all this is crazy man I'm trying to get as good as I can so I can get them off the floor are they real I think they real metal with a point a real Point that's when I was pushed down cheers oh my God yeah I know man it's crazy [Applause] Versace and Willie walking around arguing fussing cussing acting a fool type deal man cool with everybody so I'm just thinking that joke and I'm thinking really man like just joking around hey what Let it go Let it go Let it go maybe going back and forth back and forth back and forth you know you ain't gonna fight George I'm trying to jump in and say listen you need to stop [Applause] to do with nothing y'all got going on I hit the sink in my room so if it's pleased to shake down that's a major problem in your hands they're not stopping the CEO not doing anything about it really man like when they go pick up the garbage can get ready to go like hit him [Applause] but he put it back so I'm thinking is is over [Music] I look over and I seen it in his head you guys I don't want to get to a point where Jennifer pisses me off and I reveal that she's part of 60 days in I want Shanice to go home as soon as possible so I said maybe you should give the signal again I got a big big bag of Kama syrup this time we'll get another shank and drugs Sierra comes running out gets on her belly and Dives so I grabbed her legs rail was like I know what you are people are assuming that I'm a cop that puts me in a very very dangerous situation I got a new cell mate look if you come back you got two gloves on pulling out drugs at his ass if they come check the room they come find my shank wait another shank yeah foreign yeah they kind of ticked me off because I've been through a lot Jennifer is just being a butthole she's wearing on me Tony's dinner for about two weeks now he came in there like he's been there before Tony is definitely trying to get a shank I'm trying I am going to get one so anything that Tony can do I think I can do better why you work out Shanice comes over to me and says I gave Angel some of my urine for a drug test I am not on board with that Janice doesn't know I'm a cop I'm extremely Furious Shanice I want you gone we walked in the bathroom and he showed me this tank he said he can make me a good one waves maybe going back and forth back and forth I look over and I seen it in his hand it's a shank oh something about to go down [Music] instead [Applause] [Applause] foreign don't touch me if I was a CEO there that stabbing could have been prevented a hundred and ten percent okay let's say I also did not know that Versace had a shame you you think clearly that Willie had a room so now now verbal commands put the broom down put your hands behind your back if he fail to comply you spray them but before you even act you should have been on the radio calling back up for his safety and everyone else is safe [Music] Versace stabbed him a couple times and to me it looked like he walks to the shower flushed the shank in the toilet next thing you know you see Versace upstairs the CEO let him back in missile blood on him and everything I'm like this man just damn gonna kill somebody what the hell and as far as I can see from myself when I went in he was never handcuffed eventually they ended up coming to get him you see him walking down the stairs with all this stuff Versace did get removed from the pod uh he's probably onto the hole seeing a guy just had two feet from my face it was a humbling experience very humbling very humbling because I Could Have Been Me it's not a show this is not something I you know you want to sign up for to be you know to be on TV for anything like that this is real life and somebody could have lost their life for real [Music] please see that wow [Music] the main things that I'm struggling with in here of course with the food I've had diarrhea for four days I've had a Non-Stop headache my feet are swollen and it pisses me off that Jennifer does not understand my condition [Music] is an emotional wreck she's not making eye contact with me and nor is she speaking to me when I came here originally it was a team situation that's gone so I decided not to talk to Jennifer because when I get to the point of I call it my level of festivity that I'm at now I black out and I can't control what I say myself [Music] [Music] I think it was that's what she did and where I'm at right now is I don't want to get to a point where Jennifer pisses me off and I say something or do something that revealed that she's part of 60 days in and you're afraid that you could do that I'm definitely afraid that I could do that because I'm on edge right now I don't really care what Shanice does because I'm in here to do a job and I'm going to do it whether I'm liked or not um for Shanice to keep going on and on about I'm done I want to go home like um what about our cover we're the ones that everybody has targeted as being a part of this program don't come and Shout things like that I want Shanice to go home as soon as possible please well we had to go I gotta talk to my kids [Music] so after the whole stabbing the CEOs said hey go back in yourself they block us down [Music] comes in and they're searching sales looking for the shank you know I'm nervous as crap because I have a shame if the side team come in and search yourself find the shame I'm gonna be screwed they send me to the hole and now I have to you know possibly blow my cover and here we are pulling it out Shanice is putting me and Jennifer and a very risky dangerous situation [Music] I've had this massive Target on my back and now she's just continuously stirring the pot so I'm ready to do whatever I can to fix that [Applause] I'm going to ask her what her game plan is for getting out and possibly encourage her in the direction of making that happen you can accidentally shut us in here too because she's about to help all the boys [Music] even though I don't fully trust really anybody I trust it actually more than I do Jennifer [Music] because interesting I do not want to discuss with Shanice any of these feelings that I have towards her because I don't trust her and I don't know what she is going to do behind my back I gotta go I gotta go to the doctor especially after the situation within the medical African why would you volunteer to come to jail when you have a b c and d medically wrong with you and put yourself in this environment to where you could put other people at risk through your selfish actions that's not okay I am not okay with that I'm disappointed in that I don't approve of that I gotta get home I'm like I'm not trying to be difficult but she's not happy I've made a commitment to the sheriff and I am doing things that can put me in danger in order to Make a Better Living environment for the women of Etowah County I don't have time to sit here and complain I want Shanice to go home as soon as possible [Music] questions told me to my face that she was going to blow all of our covers if she did not get to leave so I said maybe you should give the signal again [Applause] [Music] extremely extremely crowded thank you [Music] how you doing ready to go home that's how I'm doing you know I've been thinking about this a lot this has been the worst experience in my life and the best experience in my life all in one so I'm ready for the worst part to be over tell me more because I'm I have some um how do I say this I have some issues with with another participant and um just doing this with me what are you talking about Jen when I came into this I came into it like we're family and if I hear something I'ma let you know to try to protect everybody where I'm at right now is I'm protecting me myself and I so what did Jennifer do exactly um we were talking about she was like you know how are you doing and I was like you know and so it was just kind of like a snide remark like well it is jail and I was like don't say it's jail because I've been through a lot from I can't have kids I've lost my hair I lost 90 pounds it's not a joke and that's why I was like let me before my attitude gets too bad and I jack up everything for everybody I would rather just bear out Grace he went up it's not worth it it's not worth it I'm done [Music] [Music] how are you you know what I'm here yeah okay I know there's something you want to show us eventually yeah but I already got rid of it I didn't yeah you already got rid of it the shank yeah yeah I got rid of I flushed it you did yeah I flushed it because the sauteing kept coming and I didn't want to get caught with it and then they say hey you got a shank and then get possibly move somewhere else or whatever whatever so yeah I flushed it so let's start the beginning how did you get the shank uh O'Shea what was it made out of metal it was a it was it was serious it was really serious foreign [Music] that's how you feel Queen's out ten nine give me a call that's how you feel okay that's real that's okay [Music] what pack it up yeah dude I won [Music] it's good bye I'm shaking I'm so excited [Music] I feel great that Shanice is leaving early the worry is gone wondering what she's saying what she is doing whether or not I have to hear her or about her complaining about the food I love you Jake look me up on Facebook I did not say goodbye to Shanice I don't care I'm glad she's gone what really kind of blew my mind is she left with all of her food while we have girls who don't get any store they're Puck they're cheeking their pills just so they can buy some M M's [Music] and you are blessed with all of this stuff and you're gonna take it home well done Shanice well done you've made everybody think you're [Music] thank you foreign it's time to move on and remain focused on my mission working as a trustee I'm privileged to see what's going on there's one girl in lockdown who I desperately want to help [Music] Sierra is a tweet genuinely nice kind human being whenever she's sober right now she's flooding herself and feces and urine for absolutely everywhere they coated every surface she's jumping up and down on the bed she was completely nude just like we don't need to come outside Sierra has problems that are made even worse by being locked down in seclusion for days and days and days Sierra when she acts out instead of them getting her the appropriate care they put her in herself by herself she does not eat she does not drink she does not bathe nothing healthy comes out of being locked down 23 hours today they'll punish you and put you on right now for 45 days because you called them a that ain't wrong it's just like a dog if you keep it behind the fence I mean when it finally gets out and getting yard to run free it ain't gonna know what to do they will break you in here in more ways than one still break you over here [Music] something right here to help you okay [Music] I want to help Sierra because she is a vulnerable human being in a terrible environment [Music] if I get a court date and I mean if I get if I get a bomb gone I get a bind This Old Man yeah ever since I got a shank from O'Shea you know we just clicked we really did just just just we just click talk with him oh he's really plugged in with all the drugs [Music] put 80 on my boots wow just like that I say is uh a junkie he do smoke crumb every day all day uh he sells it I mean he's in there every jail every prison you go there's gonna be dope there's no stopping it in these streets you just gotta do what you got to do you gotta do what you got to do to survive every chance I get I seize that's what my name means in in Persian demarja means king and conqueror I'm not praying I'm not the mouse in the field I'm not the tuna swimming around and I I'll be damned if I beat a bam before you get eight I'm an apex predator so there's nothing that's going to be out here trying to eat me we all have a natural Hustler mentality in US [Music] if you don't you starve off and die on the street one strip is ten dollars you can get it I was like what the so people come to jail with a dollar get drugs make money off drugs in jail and leave with thousands of dollars to me that is crazy so that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna work from the inside and make me money Adam broke the trust Circle and honestly I'm like y'all don't even know me y'all just plugging me in with everything and everyone cannot be that convincing no way [Music] I'm very apologetic shoes me and Jennifer asked the guard if we could help Sierra to take a shower she's a lost girl I feel like she's been through a lot of things [Applause] luckily the guard got on board with it and said yes [Music] we asked Gordon Sierra downstairs got her in the shower the moment that she got in the shower she was so happy she was laughing and joking [Applause] [Music] Ashley and I literally we started seeing the transformation of this girl which was a great thing because she needs help [Music] the kindness that we showed her helped that girl we had finally gotten this girl clean has shown her love we get her calm down but that did not last long 30 minutes later we go to bring her mat to sleep on [Applause] Sierra is completely gone she's back to screaming jumping up and down yelling flooding her cell again quick ly come on [Applause] I'm still even worse [Applause] Sierra oh no come on get off the balcony [Music] stop [Music] so the door opens and Sierra comes running out gets on her belly and Dives underneath the bars so I dove on her and I grabbed her legs and kept her from going over the edge that should have been miss Wildman doing that Miss Wildman did not handle that situation with Sierra appropriately at all at that point I became the officer I had to do what needed to be done I'm not gonna let somebody get hurt when I'm there and I can make a difference I've invested a lot of emotions yeah did you hear her tell me she's gonna knock my glasses she said you better back off flashlight I went downstairs and rail was like I saw what you did I know what you are Break Stuff I don't know if real was referencing to me being an assumed police officer or something different but a normal inmate would never put their hands on another inmate so that was pretty much a red flag that I'm not a normal enemy I drew attention to myself this is not good foreign [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] so now that's putting off to everybody they think I got money now so now everybody like oh look bro you got money uh you can give me a hundred dollars or fifty dollars I can get some drugs that's how I plan on moving forward all right let's go have a nice day you got it in his Jail commissary is gold because black people don't have money to get anything so if you ordered a big huge bag you can get whatever you want in that jail I mean the commissary uh the soups and this and that this time we'll get another shank and drugs [Music] I made a deal with O'Shea for another Shank I gave him a couple Foods pastries Honey Buns I think a couple of Kool-Aid packs roughly 11 to 12 worth of items so now it's game time it's just a matter of time to like reach my goals reach what I sought out to do it's about the best thing on the trade right there good you want to go eat I got a new cell mate Zuck is uh in the gel plenty of times I guess involved in the drug game outside of the jail foreign he's on the toilet I don't even play that like don't in my room like you know then don't do that apparently he was he was pulling out drugs out his ass oh so they really do stuff their ass ume that's my pillow s [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] I have Asian it's not it's not as good as the one I had originally but yeah I have one now you wanna show us yeah yeah so I uh have it wrapped in here I just roll it up and I paid a little less for this one because he didn't put the put the actual sharp point on it so this is the one that he he gave me um so he put a point he started he told me I could put a point here he told me a guy downstairs on the Lord tier who could put a point uh in the wreck yard here and here this is a extremely dangerous not only dangerous for the inmates for the staff I've been hiding this on the Conduit uh on the cameras in the cell um that's been my Hiding Place not only for this one but for the first one I had as well I honestly couldn't believe how easy it was for me to get just a matter of going up to someone hey I got money oh what you need a shame okay come on it's that simple what do you want to do with that thing um I want to give it to you guys um and ultimately get to the sheriff or the chief why don't I take it from you I'll hold it under it and then when it's time when you're out when it's time for your debrief I'll give it back to you and you can present it to Chief Peak and to sheriff Wharton okay and so [Music] um he bought drugs inside he had uh ice so that's meth took it out of his ass they call it um clenching some more jokes in here sometimes than he is on the streets spots in here when coke uh MILF clone clone be here all the time They're Gonna Be One Way Or Another We're gonna get drugs in here no matter what put it on these ball sack put it in between your butt crack put it in your jail pocket sometimes it's so sadist I mean they going in people's ass to get them like like no gloves no none they're gonna beat you up and hold you down and they're gonna take it I'm coming out man I'll holler at you when I come out yeah when you come out I said yeah I'll let you when you come out all right Zuck goes and tells somebody that he has eyes on has drugs on the wrong thing to do next thing you know work is out so now 20 people come knocking on my door hey hey so hey I'm gonna let bro chill for a little bit you know what I'm saying hey hold on for a second let them chill for a little bit hold up [Music] everybody trying to get a cut of it what's up but um what I'm trying to tell you is you know what I'm saying like you got something be normal thing you know make some money they're telling me about you know what I'm saying everybody you still got no information [Music] I didn't necessarily tell him he had to go I just told him I just don't want going down in here I guess he got the picture because he left my room and Luke probably was just like nervous or just scared you know what I'm saying that he don't already told me about all right he thought I was gonna probably beat him up and take it from him you're here looking for Contraband you're here looking for drugs and somebody brings it to your room and you turn it around on the surface that looks like you have an amazing opportunity in executing your mission yeah but I had to do something about it because if they come check the room they come find my Shank wait back up another shame [Music] on the surface that looks like you have an amazing opportunity in executing your mission yeah but I had to do something about it because if they come check the room they come find my shame wait back up you have a shank yeah you want to see what it look like yeah just real small but real sharp though somebody actually I guess put it in the middle of a toothbrush it's a nail it's a it's a it's a nail probably about three inches four inches long um and put it through the cap so it can stay tell me what happened how did you do so uh one of my guys that I know who had it he ended up leaving he ended up um getting freed he left the Banger inside his room with his cellmate and I went in there and told him I was like hey you such and such left the Banger for me and I told him I was like I'll buy from you so I gave him what couple soups honey bun uh some chips and like a couple oatmeal pies and he was good like he was one of the guys that was starving so I could have literally got the Banger for nothing but I just wanted to take care of him so he can keep it on the high chest as far as um you know me having a name a presence inside of the jail you know people come up to me talk to me you know I feel like I can probably go and try to um you know move around a little bit a little bit easier a little bit smoother and make a real play as far as like with the drugs I found my flow I'm making moves uh quicker than I thought I would and I'm the man in jail to be honest with you [Music] thank you um but I'm like we can get out before the whole Sierra incident people thought I was part of the program and they joked about it but when they saw me react in that Split Second [Applause] that was a moment where all right she's definitely a cop and that puts me in a very very dangerous situation okay um being identified as a police officer is a very very scary situation in a jail environment because every person that jail has had a negative interaction with a police officer the entire unit knows she's the police so I'm worried about her safety within the facility this is real life these are real drug dealers they are Fighters they're murderers this is not a joke [Music] there was already so much suspicion but now they know I'm a cop just trying not to get killed I would like very much not to be the next person stabbed in Etowah County I won't understand where the drugs are coming from it's the first time I'm just buying drugs if I get caught I can land in jail for real [Applause] Sierra is a person with serious disturbances the other inmates feed her drugs as entertainment that is something that's very dangerous because she cannot control the situation I do not want to leave here until I figure out a way to healthier today is time to collect telling me like this little sad story and I ain't buying it you know I'm not with you I'm not playing with you I really will beat your ass essentially our cover's blown at this point oh my God she's in my trouble I don't know are you you're giving me a panic attack you feel like they know that you're a cop we're in an unsafe place all right [Music] I've had diarrhea for four days I've had a Non-Stop headache my feet are swollen she went up it's not worth it I'm done seeing the guy gets that two feet from my face I Could Have Been Me that's when I got my shank to uh show the sheriff it's like very easy to get she's a lost girl I feel like she's been through a lot of things I'm in here to do a job and I'm going to do it whether I'm liked or not I got a big big bag of commissary so now that's putting off to everybody they think I got money now so I can make different deals I'm in the commissary just I'm gonna give another Shanks and drugs Ms Wildman did not handle that situation with Sierra appropriately [Music] at that point I became the officer I had to do what needed to be done rail was like I saw what you did I know what you are I like my narratives they know I'm a cop and I would like very much not to be the next person stabbed at Etowah County [Music] thank you [Music] [Music] today's store is coming that's a big deal that's a big deal everybody is excited tell DJ he got to get his sheet too for me store means money because I sell my store to other inmates real with that I can buy drugs get Shanks you know get whatever I want store runs everything if you got stores you run everything because people get hungry all the time if I get a suit from you you pay me back too if you take two they want four if you get four they want six and they're gonna get that from you [Music] [Applause] [Music] I have everything I have soups I think I have 37 soups eight Honey Buns three boxes of nutty bars about 10 uh sodas thank you you say you sell two oh wow I sell to a lot roughly 25 to 30 people easy easy [Music] what's that sugar hey if you look at the papers people are oh I used Justin my cellmate as my bookie Justin's job is to keep up with everyone who borrows something everyone pays it back 14 is three Tony he's really cool guy he's a businessman and he's an entrepreneur but to me it's not about the money I need to build a better reputation otherwise it's gonna be harder for me to get drugs I already had a guy a couple days ago run off with a couple soups I guess I need to collect what's owed to me cause I can't I can't have a reputation like that in jail you don't want that oh [Applause] everybody's asleep I'm awake [Applause] [Music] welcome to 509. [Music] it's gotten to the point now where I'll go out for a few minutes and I'll make phone calls or I'll check my messages on the kiosk look at the store and then I'm right back in here so I went from like wanting to get out as much as possible to now I'm just like kind of just stay in here and just think and just and what can I give you a break from yourself yes yes I mean I'll go with you guys because I get to like breathe not not this place there you go now yeah okay right here what's going on I have been on the edge of my seat and stressed out since I got in there because I was worried that my cover wouldn't stick now I know my cover did not stick why do you feel that your cover's blown because every day all I hear is you're 60 days in your story doesn't fit you're not one of us that I'm a cop and I'm undercover and the jail looking for drugs stuff's starting to get aggressive towards me I keep trying to do what I can to keep up with my cover but at the end of the day these women are not stupid and real life legitimately they know I'm a cop this mission is just oh the suspicion is there's not even a suspicion anymore we're at the point where it's straight up accusations constantly all day long and that puts me in a very very dangerous situation so you want to leave early I don't want to leave right now because I don't feel like I've given Etowah County everything I have to give but as far as me being inside of the jail and sitting there I'm worried I'm I'm a little bit concerned okay here's what I can tell you we have to have a conversation with Chief Peak about this I don't know what the next step is yeah a lot of that's going to be kind of up to him but we'll see what he says we should get you back thank you thank you fourth quarter minute left I'm counting down like literally programs to end today and I have to tell the sheriff you know what I found I wouldn't be a problem because I know it's a lot more than so you're here looking for Contraband you're looking for drugs before you walk out of here what's your plan yes so I mean now uh that I got got some fire shank on me I think I can uh get involved in some dope there's a ton of drugs a ton of drugs that destroy these inmates what drugs have you seen uh some of everything uh anything that's out on the street is in the jail have you been offered drugs no no no I don't know why but you don't offer me drugs so it's hard for me to actually get to the people who have the drugs you know what I'm saying because they don't offer so for me it's just I have to let it happen you know I don't have a set goal of how I want to do it I just want to keep an open mind and let it come to me you just got to be really really uh careful about you know how you approach it but I'm gonna get it what are your next steps not sure yet but it's always you know figure it out hello hey chief so Ashley contacted us and the bottom line is that she feels her cover's been compromised and that everyone in the Pod knows that she's a police officer feels that she's ineffective there's nothing more she can do because none of the inmates are going to tell her anything none of the inmates are going to show her anything I mean I don't want to get hurt she actually thinks they know that my guess our question for you is what do you want to do about this he's thinking she's in that anger and something was to happen in US knowing that she feels unsafe she's been very clear she's not tapping out but when somebody says 100 of the Pod knows that I'm a part of 60 days in it feels like we have to address that I think she'll end up doing for that extension I think store runs on Tuesday today is time to collect who owes you my bookie Justin uh you have to talk to him about that um [Laughter] oh [Music] I literally walk around and collect at this point most people approach me hey big bro hey oga here's this here's this I owe you this when the inmate owes another inmate for store yeah they get beat up pretty bad this guy named Anthony I gave him some grits because the man said he was hungry so I fed him he said he was gonna give me three soups in return for the three packs of grits I gave him but come time for him to pay me back nothing foreign my girlfriend she's ignorant she's she's playing with my money and this and that and I tell him look bro they ain't got nothing to do with me I just didn't want my money my mind's made up a guy's giving me the run around as far as paying me and it's jail so I can't be letting them you know take my kindness for weakness I don't necessarily want to put my hands on the guy but I will if I had to that's a fight waiting to happen oh my God achieving my trouble I don't know are you you're giving me a panic attack what's happening you tell me do you feel like they know that you're a cop I feel like it's been it has been discussed and I've been called the police multiple times and when you have concerns like that I have concerns so the way I look at that we're in an unsafe place all right so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna pull you out today [Music] because I can't sleep at night knowing that you're in an unsafe environment that that bothers me now I feel like a failure you're not a failure it's not about failing don't just I have I have eight days left just breathe it ain't about being a failure it's about doing the smart safe thing from what I hear you've got good Intel and I look forward to sitting down with you and hearing what you found out in the don't don't cry just relax okay [Music] Just Breathe you okay you've done good you're not a failure have you got me some good information that's going to help me yes I just don't I'm so close to the end you've made it to the end your mission is complete I just don't want it there's so much about the success of this program do you feel like you're a failure do you feel like you're a failure because I can assure you the rest of the world doesn't because they don't put your uniform on every day they don't go out there and do the job that you do every day the only person that matters is you because if you don't feel that way about you nobody else is going to feel that way and here's the thing too this right here is to make you a stronger police officer I believe that a hundred percent what do you think is a successful shift when you're on patrol everybody goes home safe that is the number one goal when you put on your uniform what's happening today sending me home safe okay that's success okay [Music] [Music] I was in the vestibule serving trays and then all of a sudden I heard somebody say that Ashley was getting packed up um [Music] I guess she's getting transferred and I was shocked sure enough they were packing her up I cannot see Ashley tapping out but I'm glad that she's not here anymore things have escalated more recently and Ashley has been a Target [Music] she had every right to be nervous ideas it feels like there's a giant Spotlight on me because of the strength of Ashley and my relationship I lost weight you know what but I don't care what they say I'm not tapping out I'll find out what the sheriff needs me to find out but overall it's way more important to be able to help the women here the devil has a stronghold on this unit [Music] we'll bring Deliverance I'm spiritually preparing for that every single day and it will happen [Music] how's it feel I'm probably the very first person to be sad to leave Jill I just I had a very clear vision of how I thought that this was gonna go and you know life had other plans foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] this is the first time I've looked at myself in a mirror and God I've gotten so fat I don't want the cookie anymore the moments leading up to that ultimate decision were difficult things I love feeling very disappointed but I knew ultimately it was not safe [Music] yeah it's like I just I want to do laundry I want to watch TV I want to wash my hands I really want to brush my teeth really really bad my experience in Etowah County Jail bothered me I went through a lot emotionally seeing these officers behave so poorly I was so angry it was going to the point where I was going to have a mental breakdown and I was gonna suffer some probably some damage to my mental health [Music] I don't believe that inmates should be treated that way and it made a difference in me it made a difference in how I'm going to police and how I'm going to continue my career [Music] I woke up this morning and I was concerned about what I was going to buy from store and now I'm lounging by the pool watching the sunset and it feels like everything has been a dream and none of it was real and it's gonna take it's going to take a while for me to process all this [Music] um it's going to take a while [Music] I got Contraband on me already with the shank I just pondered in my mind like how do I want to get some drugs and it just hit me I was like all right red is the guy that knows about everything that goes on in the jail red knows everything because red is the runner he maybe has the drugs or just knows what the drugs are and we play cards together all the time [Music] so my plan was to hopefully he knows something about how they bring it in so I was like all right I was like hey you know I read because we won in the cards game and whatnot I'm gonna get you some ice in this way he can go and actually make it happen for me [Music] and find out who has it and then he comes back to me and tells me who to go talk to you keep saying look go talk to Megatron I got the green light to uh get involved in some dope and that's what's going down thank you [Applause] I'm in here trying to find the drugs and Contraband for the sheriff but first I gotta deal with Anthony Anthony owed me three soups he didn't have anything to give me at the time when the debt was due you know I'm here to get drugs Shanks all types of Contraband that I gave the sheriff my word as I was going to do and now if I look weak ain't nobody gonna want to sell me no drugs or do anything like that now they're not going to do any business with me I have to protect my reputation at this point and take care of business [Music] [Music] give me all your clothes I want all your clothes cause I want everything I want your socks I want your shoes I want your pants foreign [Applause] I should have took them to be honest at this point I'm thinking I should have took them I went upstairs and gave them all out to my friends and my cell mates I mean I don't want them it's like Robin Hood thing robbed you know and give it no I I don't feel like I'm losing myself I don't feel like uh mentally um you know I'm losing it came here under the impression I'm an inmate CEOs think I'm inmate the inmates think I'm inmate so I'm gonna do what the inmate does now that I understand where the drugs are coming from they just want to know how to you know put myself in a position where I can get it I got my eyes on Megatron I was sitting down in the middle of the pot and then ended up sending Megatron over to me when Megatron is like I got the name Megatron for a reason I'm gonna cut up I'm gonna turn up I'm gonna act crazy I'm gonna do what I want and if you don't like it then I don't care [Applause] okay my rib taste precedes itself people gonna meet every day I got this make sure I got that you got this you got that you got this everything come through go through my hands you know what I'm saying [Music] [Applause] Megatron just to run it kind of but he was like oh I got you I got you I got you and then um he went to the guy in like 11 sale foreign [Music] just seeing that um just showed me that it could be anybody in a pot you just never know and I would have walked by that I got 10 times out of tennis at night ain't doing nothing seriously [Music] they hit me with a big number of items 10 honey buns and um 10 soups to get that and I told him all right cool let them know like my money good on my end and now it's solid is going down [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] at night when you think like you're retreating to yourself people will start just screaming and banging and I mean it's almost never ending [Music] really something that you would see in a horror movie [Applause] [Music] Sierra is the girl who Ashley and I helped take a shower [Music] she's such a beautiful girl but she is a person with serious disturbances she screams and bangs and um floods toilets to get out of herself [Music] and the CEOs do not care and the other inmates feed her drugs as entertainment and when they do different personalities come out of her she'll talk in this really sweet voice and then all of a sudden the most demonic possessed voice comes out of her yeah [Music] [Music] [Music] I'm sorry all right y'all you redirected that energy that helps I just wanted her to look into my eyes like I wanted to see what the response was and it was not what I when I when I look into her eyes you see someone who is just hurting and just wants to be normal and then the presence just takes over and it's not even her anymore you can see that this is not her foreign some of the people are high and so they just get really aggressive and combative [Applause] that is something that's very dangerous because she cannot control the situation she could get physically hurt [Applause] [Music] S [Applause] I do not want to leave here until I figure out a way to help Sierra because her life could be at risk [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] you want sprite FIFA and birds initially I thought that it was drugs now I absolutely think it's a spiritual war I think that she has trauma I think that there are hurts and pains and and which open up portals that have allowed demons to to grab hold on her I could touch this girl like and change her if I could get out of here and talk and sit with her my goal is to have Sierra spiritually set free before I leave this place [Music] Anthony owed me three soups so I shook them down for everything I took his socks pants shirts blanket parts Anthony went to the female CEO and said hey Tony said he's going to stab me and beat my ass PC means protective custody if you're in fear of your life and you can go to PC yes [Music] for real yeah Anthony was extremely terrified you know I think he got the message that's why he went to PC yeah he's still a real ass he got no bears on for real they owed money and he didn't have what he needed to pay his debt so that's what happened to him he walked out you know in his drawers and now I got a little reputation that I'll stab you now people would definitely take me serious and I can get all the drugs that I want and as much as I want [Laughter] [Music] Megatron [Music] me and Megatron went to the back to talk about the deal this is the first time I'm just buying drugs so I was a little nervous Megatron just basically sealed a deal for me 20 items for some meth everything was definitely riding on this transaction foreign [Music] came up to myself for the commissary and the CEO was right there so I was just in the back of my mind like oh [Music] I'm like all right all right just open the door you know I gotta get this I lost the bet whatever the case may be if I get caught buying drugs I can land in jail for real [Music] hi guys hi Ashley how are you been a little bit long time no see yeah so it's been a crazy ride yeah um first of all Chief Peak we left on a really bad note I didn't think so since then I've had time to recoup and think about what you said and what you did for me um I think you may have saved my career so I thank you for that well that's good I'm going to start with my initial intake the first thing that happened when I came in was I was given a pat down that pat down was pathetic she patted right underneath my breasts along this side and didn't really check anything else my bra had underwire so I left it behind I had no bra and I had no underwear turns out it could have taken both of them upstairs this bra I was able to obtain within the facility I traded coffee you see right in here they'll put their drugs inside the pocket right here behind the padding I can fit my whole hand in there this is the number one way that I saw of drugs and Contraband entering your facility [Music] plus take a moment to talk about Miss Williams she loved me naked in my cell for 12 hours I really have nothing you'll be okay it humiliated me I had to go into survival mode and whenever there was extra clothes available I started taking them so that that really bothered me another thing about Miss Williams is are you aware of what happened on Mother's Day she took her handcuffs and her keys and banged and banged and banged on our cell doors for hours I'm gonna turn the lights off and turn the lights on the main things that that we're really trying to focus on is is Officer misconduct it's a huge issue and Miss Williams that's why I was terminated I hope she never gets any type of law enforcement job ever again because I love my job yeah I love being a cop more than anything in the whole world watching my home team fail right in front of my eyes it shook me and it broke me and I hope that I have given you information that you guys can use absolutely and you'll never know how much we appreciate just want to thank you again thank you thank you guys I appreciate yourself [Music] thank you [Music] the Megatron came up to myself for the commissary and the Coe meal to start questioning that situation thank you no I just didn't want to get in any trouble I didn't want to get busted I had to tell them I lost the bet I'm trying to bet again for this next game and the co just all right get out so that was that was intense that was intense after that I was just like a little nervous I was like man look I don't know what's going to happen next like you just never know [Music] foreign [Music] I was sitting down in the middle of the pot Megatron come to sit down and he just whips it out in public what the hell you know I don't want nobody to know that I'm actually buying these drugs I'm like no let's go to the back I've got all eyes on me maybe the CEO probably looking at me what are you doing and next thing you know what the hell am I going to say just don't want to get caught getting drugs inside of a jail I know that Dennis is trying to get drugs inside through Megatron but I do not think Dennis will be as successful as me finding drugs baby and I'm not gonna stop if I get caught with it drop it I can catch a charge and I can probably bring down this whole program we love you with all but we [Applause] I am not willing to allow Sierra to be tormented I'm going to pray and see what God wants to do overall I think we were 50 50. half the participants did an excellent job the other half we're just a fish out of water if we could do it again and we had more people like Tony I'd be all about so you want to do this again I'm Sheriff Jonathan W Horton Etowah County Alabama hi Jonathan Horton when I took office back in January I inherited a very broken jail [Applause] the pods were overflowing with Contraband and there were more drugs in jail than they were out on the streets since day one in office it was clear to me that we needed 60 days in more than any other jail in America so we put seven undercover participants into our facility and right out of the gate they started dropping like flies I hate myself right now [Music] um you watched the show and it looks completely different than when you're in here in the back of my head I was like you should have just stayed a fan like I'm not as mentally strong as I thought it was yeah I just really thought I could come in here and be socially malleable but I don't fit in then it's more than I can handle you coming in is a game changer with so many people dropping out early we brought in Tony as Theo from The Fulton County Jail in Atlanta your mission save the program can you do that for us Tony yes sir some of the participants came in thinking they were just going to be on a TV show but this jail ate them alive I already deal with a lot and I knew mentally I would come in here because I knew I had the gluten intolerance to go against but Jennifer it's just being a butthole when I get to the level of festivity that I'm at now I black out and I can't control what I say so I'd rather just be out gracefully officer McNair they know I'm a I'm a cop that puts me in a very very dangerous situation I'm just trying not to get killed I would like very much not to be the next person stabbed at Etowah County what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna pull them out today it's about doing the smart safe thing with half of the participants dropping out early and another one's cover being compromised we're in a dire situation we're down to the final three participants and now I'm worried I'm not going to get enough information to make a difference in the channel the 60 days is up and it's time to pull the last three out I hope and pray that they were able to find some useful information for me and that this all just wasn't a big waste of time [Music] um [Music] four quarter minute left I'm counting down like literally minutes and Megatron just basically sealed a deal for me 20 items for some meth foreign [Music] came back with a product and he just whips it out in public and I'm like oh Megatron what the hell you know I don't want nobody to know that I'm actually buying these drugs I'm like no let's go to the back I'm in the day room and I see Dennis talking to Megatron I'm like oh he must be trying to buy some drugs from but I do not think Dennis would be as successful as me finding drugs because at this point everyone trusts me 100 and I'm making a lot of money from store I gave Megatron just some of the Dust of it just for helping me out and then I wrapped it up and put it right in the Cuffs of my jeans [Music] that's it hold on uh so it's a little dope sack so that's the that's called as ice so basically like crystal meth just a another term for it which is called ice I paid what 20 items for it I want to give it to you guys just hold it you know if I get caught with it drop it you know what I'm saying I can catch a charge I can land in jail for real in Alabama which I don't want to happen and I can probably bring my bring down this whole program [Music] okay oh just with your life all right believe me look I'm a new guy never been in jail and I can get this stuff very easy so imagine somebody who's been to jail in and out that know the system better than I do good morning [Music] exactly do something very upbeat and encouraging honor nearby this day or let's pray we were in church service we like and so I was praying and just and just like looking for guidance and leading of the Holy Spirit you say holy spirit come you're the minister of the sanctuary there's no one in this one and all of a sudden I heard banging and screaming and all kinds of stuff Sierra you can literally see that her face was distorted and I looked up in her window and we made eye contact and I just allow the Holy Spirit to pray through me and so I'm praying under my breath and she's up there just throwing over vanities and in the name of Jesus I commanded her to shut up and that was the very moment where I took control spiritually and gave her her right frame of mind and so as I'm praying down on the ground the Holy Spirit was in her room comforting her I'm telling you I looked at this girl and under my breath prayed and this girl shut up immediately and she never even came back to the window A.M not willing to allow Sierra or any other person that I see to be tormented by a demon spiritually I'm going to command it to go it's essential to Pride is so important it makes all the difference in the world that you're less Pride God's work with her isn't done my goal is to have Sierra spiritually set free before I leave this place encourage and strength and if you'll have this only you can do in Jesus holy night thank you [Music] let's go get some let's get some I'm dead ass always get out I'm gonna try so Dennis may have got a little bit of drugs that's cool that I ain't tripping on that however he's not gonna get nowhere near as much as what I get especially from Megatron I know these white boys are coming in I know they got some I understand I got all the commissary I got all the money I got the biggest influence in this pod that's why I'm called the Pod boss so if his drugs in here I'm going to get all the drugs this is how it's gonna be so you go find out how much it is and I'll buy it megatronics you know [Music] hey hey you've made a try Megatron hey yeah I Look To Me Injustice in about one of us about to get out by the next week or so yeah [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign about three to four hundred bucks easy we'll be able to get a bumble piece so now I I have the money to buy all the drugs and I'm not gonna stop with the phones wait baby [Music] the 60 days is up and it's time to pull the last three out I'm going to pull Dennis out first because I'm really not worried about Tony [Music] [Music] [Music] Johnson are you Johnson all right strike quick all right that was so ready to go it was like I had chains on it it just all fell off and I was just ready to get up out of there yeah [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] that rock felt really good [Music] what's up guys you made it hell yeah yeah how does it feel amazing I'm just happy to be out that place it's a jungle in there man you gotta you gotta go over your shoulder every second every minute you know did you bring out something with you yeah yeah I brought it with me so brought it with me about my Shank how easy was it to get that out of the jail it was too easy too easy I'm right through the metal detector didn't even sound off enough it's gonna be something I'm gonna give to the sheriff and the chief let him know you know how easy it is to take and bring stuff out of the jail how easy it is and how endangered their employees are I'm hoping that it shocks a lot of them like you know because the guy like me they probably just was like huh this guy whatnot just probably come in jail said but no I got in the mix and I put my life on the line for this so I can't wait to I don't even want to like hand it I want to toss it over to him like yeah it's how terrible your gel is I had not stretched out my legs to running too much so right now I'm just wanting to get out and like just run and just uh Take It All In [Music] you guys have no idea what it feels like you'll be locked down for 60 days in the jail and be a free man and really take care of nature really taking the little things in life man it's a blessing to be off [Music] [Music] foreign [Applause] I am looking for Spiritual Deliverance for Sierra I plan to pray and wait for a door to open I don't know will I approach the co how will I be able to go into her room will I do it inside her room I don't want it to be a spectacle so I'm not really sure I'm going to pray and see what God wants to do [Music] tonight we were out in the day room Sierra got out had found out how to disengage the locks she wouldn't listen to the CEO and she just started acting up [Applause] and she just became irate oh now you know what if you see on that writing on the wall Street in the room that I was in so I walked up the stairs and just talked to her and asked her to come down and when Miss V seen that she listened to me she had this great idea to put her in myself praise God this is a beautiful moment in time I felt like this was an amazing opportunity this was the Holy Spirit leading me to go pray for her and deliver Sierra I'm not going in there to fight with a demon I'm not going in there to argue with a demon I'm going in there to tell it what to do and I'm fully expecting it to respond and leave [Music] Miss V had this great idea to put her in myself this is a beautiful moment in time because I'm confident in prayer that God is going to do something and my goal is to not leave here without her being delivered you're in here with me it's gonna be a great night I told everybody you can have sleepovers in jail we are but first I need to listen to her story kind of gauge where her mind is before you know delivering her from her demons have you ever been walked down by yourself oh my God it messes with Ryan again yeah that they shouldn't be able to stick you in and firm that long she had talked and poured her heart out to me I just listened to her and God was building a rapport for her to come to me and ask for prayer okay [Music] because as you say when I'm gonna talk it on like Saturday I think that it was such a beautiful moment to be able to share those hours with her and to see her in her right frame of mind for most of that I mean there were times where the information kind of was scattered but for the most part she made sense every day when you come down for meds that's what they give you add around no you're not allowed to get any narcotics really so what do they give you to help you nothing so what do you take when you come down for my phone I'll be broken what tell us how long I can I don't think no mental Minds about they don't give anyone in your medical meds no they don't they don't do anything I feel like the entire facility handles Sierra as though she's only a convict as opposed to having mental health issues you know when well it was the self up here and then when you was in church that hey like you were the only person that I could visually see I don't know if you remember that I do remember it yeah and it was like sometimes we just came out I was like I would be focusing on you but it not like a weird Highway it was like you were just somehow that was giving me hope like just calm Downs here this is not your fault and the truth will be no man it's gonna be okay it was just like a [Music] refreshing moment of just praise God that my prayers are being answered moment when you were like I was praying for you and I was just asking God to give you peace God has shown his presence in this place I think you're awesome it was a great night we had a great time together I was thinking that about you and I started this night really I was like she's so cool [Music] God delivered her and I'm really confident that her behaviors are going to begin to change and I think she'll do really well all right sweetie pie good night and say a prayer okay [Music] that's right I was able to get so now I'm waiting for Megatron to get ice Megatron know that you know I get compensated stuff so he automatically assumed that I would have the money to buy the drugs from me so it's just a matter of time wow there's the green here's the green it was Patrol [Music] Megatron said he didn't have no ice but he did say he had some cream so I was like all right cool bring everything you got I bought from you and what is cream I think cream is uh I think they call cream like uh crack Coke something like that okay appreciate it uh yeah I'm gonna call you back in like say about 15-20 minutes at the most all right foreign [Music] at the table he was like hey bro look I got this for you you know he showed me cream and I'll turn around and seal like right here in my face so I'm like oh snap like put it up put it up put it up [Music] I'm going to pull Jennifer next she's the only participant left in the female unit come on the CEO came to me she said she needed to talk to me and she was walking me towards myself [Music] and when she said pack it up I couldn't believe it I was just in shock in disbelief I just didn't want to leave I did not want to leave them but many times in life I've thought God's timing should be one thing and then it wasn't and it proved out to be exactly what that situation needed in two days [Music] the door closes behind me and I just it it it's not really real until I walk out the doors and I see the traffic and can take a breath of fresh air you guys we're playing hey hi everyone I'm so awesome love you let me out let me out hello hi hi what are you feeling I'm feeling excited I can breathe and there's no mold and there's no disgusting smells and it's beautiful I'm so happy I just feel human again I feel like I'm I've been let out of the zoo and you know I can shave my legs and my eyebrows and bathe and cinnamon oil soon which is my regular routine I feel like I brought positivity I feel like I brought the truth the truth of Jesus Christ the hope that's in him I was able to pray for so many people and just God again he answered prayers every single day and he did things for these women the world is so great it's such a beautiful world and um I think I just brought encouragement a positive outlook on life no matter what the outward circumstances are this is a great moment I didn't expect it to be this great laughs I can't wait to go in there and debrief like all the stuff that I got and all the information I did my job and now it's you know I'm showing with Dennis I think he wanted to be the center of attention he wanted to be the star of the show kind of like I don't care what they've told me to do I'm going to take it upon myself to do what I want to do this is real life quit doing all this stupid that you're doing I don't need that it's definitely wrong about me but as far as you know calling you overconfident I am confident so he was right about that glad to be on this side of the bars yeah yeah enjoying a little Freedom oh yeah I enjoyed my freedom so he was in there uh the whole lot of time that that you were asked me we appreciate that and uh and and me being straight with you you know I think at first it was like I don't know about Dennis he's sort of kind of like working out a lot walking around shared off I wasn't like just kind of working on stand to myself I was talking to any and everybody got to make a name for yourself you know kind of people kind of respect you a little bit before we just start jumping in and trying to find out what's going on this Joe here particularly man it was a jungle a lot of drugs come in through intake um from off the street and when I do talk to the people that I have bring it in um from off the street what they've done is they just uh stuffed it up there they jump pocket and I actually had a cellmate that I actually did it in front of me in his butt you're talking about yeah in his butt yeah how's that how you feel about that situation I was just like shocked first thing went through my head is is this the same for TV so uh yeah so it happened uh right in front yeah so I got lucky uh and what did you end up saying you ended up giving up for the ice that was about maybe a quarter gram something like that I think it was paid about 20 items for it 20 items yeah where'd that supposedly come from it was actually my roommate that actually it was part of his ice I got you he brought it in with him when he was booked I said that to come out of his butt yeah because I was the only ice in the unit at the time you know we're gonna uh deal with that but the drugs returned over to the volcanic drug enforcement unit and they were destroyed that's what happens in a case like that so anything else that you know you feel is important I got this for you okay [Applause] [Music] um anything else that you know you feel is important I got this for you [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] County yeah that's exactly right looks like a lot of things that have came from the renovation of the gel the nail and everything yeah that's a good job because we really appreciate that this goes a long way it does we just want to say thanks all right man be careful thank you thank you I'm ready to get back ready to get back to the beaches so finally Dennis again I think he turned it on there at the end uh to begin with I'm not too sure he uh really was that productive if he had focused on his real mission of being in there in the beginning he could have done so much more [Music] now that I'm out I am ready to sit down and debrief with Sheriff Horton how are you how are you long time no see long time no see it's good to see you again we appreciate the fact that you made it from the day you were committed until the day they released you so thank you thankful for that first of all booking a lot of the drugs were coming in there they absolutely do a horrible job of patting you down [Applause] the girl who Pat me down she absolutely barely touched me they didn't look in my mouth they didn't you know really check me when I was supposed to squat down and cough there was women who came in and they were wearing layers of clothing and in every layer they had some sort of drug in those layers I could you know feed the addiction of 20 or 30 inmates so we certainly know that's that's certainly an issue in the female unit that you were in unit five right correct were the door locks when you left are they still in the process of being fixed or what's the condition there the door locks um every yet they're working so there is a way that one of the inmates Sierra she was able to disengage the lock they take a bottle of water and squeeze into that little sensory hole and actually completely disengage the locks well we have been made aware of that and we are now working on that issue there with maintenance [Music] Again Jennifer thank you a lot for the time and what you've done for us thank you God bless you I'll be praying for you thank you [Music] Jennifer was great from an Evangelical standpoint as far as the grand scheme or scope of things for what we needed Jennifer to do she was somewhat helpful but at this point I've got to be honest with you I'm still eager to get more information pack it up pack it up I hit a door open and the CEO says reels pack it up I'm like no you almost home I told him the emotions you know gosh I'm going home you know it's really happening yeah [Music] [Music] I'm excited going home however it's still a lot of work that needs to be done in here so it's like a Bittersweet home [Music] [Music] you're good man you can go there we're going through booking so I just wanted to run right through those those glass doors the metal doors I was like I'm gone now Freedom oh it's not me we did it it was over with yeah freaking right good job man good job dudes hit it damn yes just just let's just go like don't don't stop it go just go just go you did it did it guess what else it did what I got the drugs [Music] man you did it did it guess what else it did what I got the drugs you got him on here yeah can we see him yeah where'd you get that from uh Megatron I actually put them under my uh private area um I knew that I would be leaving didn't know when exactly so I just kept them there until I was called well this here is the coke be careful with that yeah I'm sneeze I gave forty dollars for this on a guy's books is here is the Clone um so what are you gonna do with it now um give it to you [Laughter] I don't want it in my possession yeah I'm happy to take it from you thank you nice no business with you sir [Music] all right so what do you want to do now hey man you want something yes if you take it through drive through yeah whatever [Music] hello yes um can I get the number two the Baconator ketchup mustard onions bacon a large Sprite a frosty cookie sundae and like try to get a large uh sweet tea on the side and a taco salad oh yeah we're gonna go big we're gonna go big oh yeah that'll do it I know I'm starting two baked cookies chocolate chip everything in here all right thank you oh man let's see finally finally finally here here yeah [Music] amazing [Music] real food foreign ly going to approach and handle situations different based off this experience uh 100 like an example when they locked everyone down because of one incident which had nothing to do with me or any other other inmates you know that's that's kind of that's rough you know I will make that a priority now once I get back to work [Music] [Music] Tony how's it going man pretty good sir wow not too long but a little while yes Tony came in late to save this program he was a correctional officer he knew what to look for so I'm hoping that he's got the most useful information um laid out to us what'd you found out yes sir um I feel like need to invest more time um in training like when the stabbing took place like an example [Applause] uh when the stabbing was over the officer did not spray them you didn't handcuff them as far as I knew you didn't call back up doing anything to me that tells me training you're gonna be in situations where it's possible you can freeze up so when that happened all you can rely on is your training you're training training training better equipment I feel like they don't have enough stuff on their belt to do their job don't have any cuff pouches no tasers the side team the only one with tasers they don't have pouches for that for the gloves if if they gotta you know stop the bleeding or you know with that whole stabbing situation another inmate said why didn't you spray them he said come here he walked over to the inmate he took his King he said here listen ain't nothing in it and said look there's nothing in the can and I'm just looking like what like what would you even tell the inmate that it isn't it even if it is even if I just used it and I just haven't had a chance to get to the warehouse why would I tell the inmate that's it we've got some some real issues that have to be dealt with uh that being said I know that you happen to be one of the first participants to physically uh put your hand on narcotics um I have a couple here this get some cash that I got um this is one of two Shanks I gave roughly 11 items for this from the Dutch Market and this is some clone very dangerous I mean messes people's minds up shut their kidneys down just ridiculously I gave I think 40 bucks for this um and I mean it was it was easy I mean and here is a razor blade this stuff was extremely easy for me to get this is some coke with the drugs I feel like you could never stop it sure it's just too too much but you can slow it down we appreciate you taking time away from your job to come and help us we appreciate it Tony yes sir yes sir thank you Tony yes we can help you let us know the things I found was extremely disappointing I mean it hurt it hurt Etowah County Sheriff's Office you know hopefully you know you can benefit from this like majorly have a safe trip thank you because there's a lot of things that need to be addressed and I'm hoping this can help and I'm just thinking like man I like I really do feel like this is the last hope for that facility I feel that Tony was a game changer and I'm very very pleased with what Tony brought to the table but uh out of eight participants there were three that actually finished the 60 days in I feel like if the other five wouldn't have gotten out so early that we would have obtained more information we wanted to check in and see how you were feeling about the information you got from the debriefs that you had I think that there were some of the participants that did an excellent job the other half uh um [Music] [Applause] we wanted to check in and see how you were feeling about the information you got from the debriefs that you had yeah so it was quite revealing I think that there were some of the participants that did an excellent job the other half were just a fish out of water that just sort of appeased themselves to make it through the period of time they had to make it through outside of that Tony was a wealth of information and you know of course he had that background he came from the corrections field and so he knew what to look for he knew and and that played a big role in being able to give us great information if we could do it again and we had more people like Tony I'd be all about it based on the participants feedback we've made a lot of positive changes we've seen towed our correctional officers are better equipped stand by folks needed to be retrained and made to do their job correctly now I'm going to send in another group of highly trained professionals a special ops group of people but only for 30 days I'm an narcotics detective I'm ready to get placed in the facility and to do what I do and that's undercover work I am the commander of operations of the county jail somebody were to attack you what would you do I'd probably feel bad for them I'm a firefighter and I have eight years experience in Corrections take from anybody if you put your hands on me I guess it's go time I'm a retired Sergeant you're not going to allow you to come up to me say I'm going to kick your ass I'm going to take my attack on you first he was so beneficial to us in the first phase we're going to bring him back for the second phase nobody is going to question if I'm 60 days in I mean I'm six three two fifty you don't want to play with me not looking for a participants to just observe and report we're looking for them to get their hands dirty to get involved to show us where our problems are supposed to be one of them so if I'm getting meth I'm gonna have to act like I'm messed up for six hours a day if I get cocaine the same thing I am going to identify how those drugs are getting in and who's bringing them in there should be no distressed signals no weakness twice to work half the time holy here we go [Music] my goal this phase is to test the CEOs 100 [Music] . [Music] [Applause] thank you [Music] thank you [Music] I'll explain to you say turn around we put eight undercover participants into our facilities [Music] three made it the entire 60 days I feel like if the other five wouldn't have gotten out so early that we would have obtained more information outside of that Tony was a wealth of information and if we could do it again and we had more people like Tony I'd be all about it Amateur hour is over it's time to put in real professionals to get the job done foreign [Music] we've made a lot of drastic changes biggest change is all the locks have been fixed now we've installed the new locks which actually have a light that indicates that the door insecure so if this is barely shut it's not going to turn green until I secure it back we've also placed a supervisor there in the intake area [Music] store up booking everyone gets a shower everyone squats and calls everyone gets the full strip down treatment to ensure that we're not missing anything we learned that this was not happening on a regular basis so we're staying to it now that it's happening 100 of the time [Music] we've seen to it our correctional officers are better equipped folks needed to be retrained stand by we've given them tasers so that they could add another inmate compliance to their belt Taser Taser Taser [Music] we learned a lot from Tony when it came to how our officers conduct themselves I told you during your interview this profession will chew people up and spit them out and just keeps rolling we learned that we need to extend our training for our new officers when you spray you want to Target it straight across the eyes I gotta know where it is and get to it if you haven't looked down on it but I took my eyes off my target that's coming at me now I got two problems I got to get this out I don't know where the hell he's at [Music] we're definitely making progress but because five of our participants didn't finish in phase one we're sending in four more law enforcement Professionals for 30 days to test these changes and see how we can further improve our facility failure is not an option so we're sending in the big guns my name is Donovan I'm an narcotics detective and I've been a police officer for a little over 12 years taking bad guys off the street really gets my adrenaline going my name is Heather currently I am the commander of operations of a county jail if one were to attack me in jail I would go back to them my name is Vanessa I'm a firefighter and I have eight years experience and Corrections I do not take from anybody my name is Mark I'm a retired Sergeant I don't need to sugarcoat things I don't have time for your there's a problem I'm going to handle it we're not looking for participants to just observe and report we're looking for them to get their hands dirty to get involved and to show us where our problems are all right how are you good how are you Mark Heather nice to meet you so where are you from Utah oh but yourself Philadelphia ah very nice awesome hey hi look hey how you doing how you doing Mark Donovan here it's nice to meet you for a while Heather how are you guys all right I'll take it well they didn't tell me someone would have nicer hair than me so you might have to do something else with me you guys ready to rock and roll or what yeah I think so yeah hi hello how are you Mark I'm Vanessa nice to meet Vanessa Heather nice to meet you hey Vanessa Donovan here nice to meet you nice to meet you we've been kind of sitting here chilling and talking and we've been waiting for you yeah if you guys that watch the show please think yeah I actually I'm kind of a little bit of a fan how about you guys the six days then actually started in the county friendly Clark County started starting our jail with the sheriff chain we know so like when it did come out and they did show the series I was like man you know I was like I'd love to be involved now what's up why do you keep us in the sticky kind of stuff so um fast forward that a few a couple years later Sheriff's like hey remember what you said back then about being involved with six days and I'm like yeah he's like you ready to go that's what's going to be interesting to me is watching the show you're like oh I would I would so oh I would not do that yeah now I'm going to be there it's like okay here we go go time [Music] good afternoon I'm Sheriff Jonathan Horton out of wall County Alabama to my left is Keith Pete the chief of Corrections to my right Mark Bullock the assistant chief of Corrections and we feel blessed that we were approached and able to invite 60 days in to help us see where we stood and make changes that would make our jail not only safer for the inmates but the correctional officers as well we have completed phase one with 60 days in as you know we put time and energy in selecting you individually to meet special ops if you will to have a group come back and go in and give us an idea of how much we've grown or what other things we still yet need to work on is tremendous but we want to know the truth if we're not doing as well as we can do we want to know it and that's why we selected you I'm going to turn to Chief Peak Chief is there anything you'd like to say just a few months ago we had a group of participants from phase one that was set in the same chairs yard today we're going to show you what each one of them done this is Jacob he was a correction officer he came in felt like he was going to be real good at this he was going to have a lot to offer he didn't even make it out of our intake area and Tapped Out this is Matt he was a Marine that said that was going to help him through walked in confident he gets in our facility I'm ready to go home this is Alex he's a college student he's trying to prove himself he actually lasted a lot longer than what I thought he tapped out he left this is Shanice and she worked with at-risk youth her students called her cray-cray because she'd throw chairs in the classroom she was built for this Tapped Out said she had to go she just couldn't take it anymore y'all see the pattern all right Ashley Ashley was a police officer she came in with this attitude that I'm not going to cry during this process and they're not going to beat me down that was totally opposite of what happened and I made the decision to pull her out so remember that when you're switching this world I know we've been undercover and I know you've been in high-risk situations but now you're going into their world to where your buddy ain't on back up on the radio Dennis huh he came in arrogant he got in there and spent the whole time taking his shirt off and working out in front of the cameras but Dennis actually made it through the whole process this is Jennifer she worked with mental health she actually made it through the whole program also [Music] there was one person that went A Step Above everybody else actually five or six steps above everyone else he was here for the right reasons he was here to help us he tested the officers he tested the inmates he got more information in a week than some of the participants got during the whole time they was here he was so beneficial to us in the first phase of this we're going to bring him back for the second phase and let him sort of be y'all's quarterback so with that we welcome Tony back to participate in this part of the program along with you guys good to see you again Tony yes sir good to see you good to see you how you doing how you doing how you doing yes sir yes sir yes sir what do you as an individual plan to do this time differently than you did the last time um well Sheriff you tell me you made changes however I'm gonna verify that for myself um every change that I brought to your attention I'm gonna pretty much call you out on it and make sure it's done if it's not fixed or in in order end up in jail for real Tony be careful man you know what we're doing you've been here before that's why we feel good about having you back we welcome you would like for you to be the team captain or leader of this next phase thank you again Tony thank you Mr now we don't expect you to ever have to tap out that's not who we chose to do this but God forbid you need to take that opportunity your physical sign will be this we'll call it like praying hands just methodically thinking if I need help okay so everybody together God helped me make it 30 days or this Sheriff's gonna kick my ass [Applause] Tony's the team leader so I'd like to give him the opportunity since he's been here before to discuss and briefly other participants hi Tony hello how you doing good give them a few helpful tips I'd love to see Tony help urge the others to to duplicate his success have anybody ever been locked up before no as a kid okay so in a nutshell it's gonna be like this we going to pie they're gonna be judging us the moment we walk in right don't think you're going to go in there and be super cop because I'm gonna tell you as soon as you walk in they're gonna look at you uh you might be with you um I don't know I'ma just watch your body language see how you move you you sell drugs you holding drugs you imma take whatever I want to take from you when I want to take it so do not put off like you're a big bad guy if you if you're not willing to fulfill that when the time come don't be that guy same thing with the females do y'all feel comfortable with y'all cover stories yeah yeah I feel comfortable like if I say what you locked up for uh what what are you locked up for all right I locked up before I got I got it warrant okay what's the one for it was like threat of violence or something like that okay yeah so you want them to have to pull it out you don't just volunteer information you don't have to tell me anything however you do want to lead people along to to get them pretty much on your team right what's your cover what's your story this assault charge so yeah oh you ever been down the road down the road yeah you haven't been to prison no you must have never been locked up before you ain't never done no time before have you I mean I've been hell before I ain't been like locked up I ain't done no real time okay all right sir what you locked up for that point up north yeah yeah what uh what what they uh what they say you stuck what are you stealing man it don't matter I'm about to get quick though yeah you got a bond no I ain't gonna bomb yet but I'm about to get out of your lawyer not yet man my people's get me out of here do you got a lawyer no how long you been locked up man I just got here I understand but you locked up for sir I got a warrant out of Philly Philly okay so why are you here I pulled over and then heading out to uh the Alabama game yeah so uh what what your charges is though what's on oxy subscripts you were selling them yep so who to wait man I'm trying I'm trying to move some stuff myself now what I I didn't say anybody's name here okay you ever heard of 60 days in now what's up you ain't never all these cameras around here you ain't never heard no six days in no I'm not a TV guy so I'm just trying to figure out what y'all folks got going on man you got nothing going on you got the wrong guy okay save me okay okay Mark honestly he's the only one I'm concerned about I think he's gonna become a Target and possibly not be able to finish so the point of all that is this you're not obligated to answer any of my questions right however just know if you don't answer certain questions you're going to be looked at a certain way you know what I mean and I don't say this jokingly I do see someone picking you out because you sitting back with your hands crossed and you looking like you're an easy target if you come in and I see you just sitting there and then you go and buy 300 worth of store either you're gonna get to me or you're gonna get beat up until he definitely underestimates me I felt what he did was disrespectful you know I am more than capable of handling myself you don't have to like me not to think anything of me but at the end of the day I'll be the winner of whatever situation I'll put in I'm I'm gonna be Fireballs so don't neither one of y'all think y'all gonna come in there and be the Pod boss because that's not your role I'm gonna tell you straight up it's not gonna happen that's me she's an overconfident cocky person if I were him going back a second time maybe you know there could be somebody else different in there now it may not be as easy that confidence could backfire and it'll look you know foolish complete in danger we get in there you don't know me I don't know you I don't know where you from you don't know where I'm from that's how we that's how it's gonna rock until you work your way inside my circle that's how it's gonna work females I feel confident about them they're nervous but they're it's a normal nervous Mark um I hope I'm wrong but if you go along within two weeks stake on me buddy stick on me if no one else have any questions for me um I think that'll do it I look forward to seeing everyone in the inside no matter what goes on watch out for each other I'd like Tony to go in first and sort of lead the group and urge the others to be a lot more successful [Music] foreign deja vu h Sheriff said a lot has changed honestly I really don't believe it supposedly he retrained all of his officers so I'm going to put all that to the test if they can be broke I'm the one to break you we've never done this before we've never put somebody back into Jail who's already been part of the program once so how does that feel people are going to love this let's go make history you know because I mean I know what I'm gonna bring to the table so you think there's going to be some suspicion but you can handle it I mean I I carry myself a certain way where you I'm not one that you want to challenge me I mean I'm six three two fifty you don't want to play with me [Music] oh man like they ready too oh man let's get it let's get it let's get it good luck yes sir thank you thanks for watching it alrighty alrighty how's it going Tony pretty good pretty good how you doing sir good it's amazing since a couple of days ago you up and ready for this yes sir I am all righty and we look forward to your

yes sir phase one I got Shanks I Got Drugs put your arms up for me I did what I wanted to do second phase buckle up buckle up one of the things that I'm looking to see has changed is intake ain't got nothing else Tony put your hands up on the wall the pat now compared to last time was night and day kick your shoes off for me he actually patted me down like crotch you know socks like winning my shoes like he he yeah they figured it out all right let's go stand right over there at that door and they'll be with him after the pat down they put me in the tank [Music] so there's this older white guy right he started bragging and boasting about some money he tell me it's 1700 dollars apparently ain't never been to jail or been robbed my job I'm an inmate now you know survival of the fittest I gotta eat man I got to call my foes I gotta get my store use the phone I ain't trying to spend my own money I'm trying to test the CEOs and every opportunity that he presented [Music] there was no one that stopped me it don't matter if you're old white black CEO's not jumping in Saving you that's the nature of the Beast [Music] good Ness so I'm sitting there being an intake there's this older white guy right he started bragging and boasting about Seventeen hundred dollars remind you I'm an inmate now you know survival of the fittest I gotta eat it no sauna that he gave me the 50. co called me out so I'm like well shoot I got to do what the CEO say it wrong I need your pants and your shirts take a shower I'm a little homeless no we make everybody shower this time intake is a thousand times better they made me take a shower everybody needs to turn on Swatch call for me they strip searched me everything all right pick your sack up all right you know the whole night in my book it was 100 correct but I'll definitely getting my a plus they figured it out let's see I was like hey you know can't take no money to the pod put the rest on the machine so I put 50 bucks on my books [Music] eventually I'm going to give it back but right now I'm an inmate I gotta do what inmates do all right I sit here before I got you on perform size unit four no they don't want females in the menu you're not gonna be able to no no I got you smiling though look at you look at you [Music] I'm ready I'm motivated I'm ready to get it done all right so how you feeling I'm I'm excited I truly am I wanted to do this for a long time I have yeah I've watched several seasons and I've wanted to be a part of this not not just as being a fan but being in a jail Commander role just being able to go in and get that insight and bring it back to my agency and make improvements there so I'm excited my name is Heather I'm 41 years old I am the jail Commander over operations at a County Jail in Utah I oversee about 190 staff members at my facility people describe me as tough uh they they have called me a badass I was a semi-pro boxer for about nine years and did MMA for another two years that experience both boxing and doing MMA gave me even more confidence in my career and Corrections being able to defend myself so I definitely have the abilities to take care of myself and handle things if I need to what about unwanted attention sexual advances I am a lesbian so I do know that that could create some unwanted attention from some of the other female inmates I don't worry about that I can I can squash that pretty quickly or if it's something that I can can you know manipulate to get Intel or get information for the sheriff I can absolutely do that I'm obviously not going to cross any lines physically but if one of the female inmates is flirting with me and I can use that to my advantage to get some Intel I have no problem doing that yeah good luck good to see you again feeling good this morning I am serious so Heather we're looking for Great Expectations and I have no doubt that that's what you'll produce you for giving of your time to help us thank you thanks so much sir I appreciate it good luck thank you so much do you feel confident feel good all right 30 days you can do it all right if you would just step right over here to our Cup teams up your left leg for me I've been an officer I've been a sergeant I've been a lieutenant and I'm now a captain but I've never been an inmate that's one side that you can only get by being an inmate so I just think it's an awesome opportunity to learn to grow to provide feedback for the sheriff I'm super excited ready to just get in there and and get at it thank you [Music] let me go I got time you got any drums last 24 hours um [Music] as a jail Commander walking into the intake it all hits me on Facebook do you have anything on you they have a poker stick I walked into chaos [Music] honestly they assume you've been here before and you know what to do one point in time I was just standing I'm like do you want me to go sit down like they just assume you're knowing what to do you should be in charge of every area including booking and that's just part of the whole security aspect there were several times there were not really any security staff around [Music] you do want security staff around especially when you have mixed genders so close in proximity what I'm seeing the Safety and Security issues I know that and in my jail I would want to know about these issues immediately to rectify them to fix them and to make sure they're in the past [Music] [Music] walking into 400 a couple people remember me and I think I'll say everything's coming back to me it's like you don't get on your grind like you've been here before this ain't nothing new but back to business I plan on challenging every single CEO every step of the way 23. first test I pretty much gonna pick my own sale I'm looking for something that I can live with I just want somebody clean decent that I don't have to worry about it I've seen what I like it was this old black guy in there I think he was on the bottom bunk and I was like hey yo you got you on the top seals like man you can't make that old man get up top this and that I said well I guess I ain't going in that day they're gonna get off to you I'm not only you know showing my dominance for the inmates I'm doing it to get the CEOs on board too to be honest once I see that little hesitant oh yeah I'm about to run with it I ain't doing nothing you say [Music] the SEO was extremely passive [Applause] um I could have done anything I want to I go upstairs look in the sails College I see that little white boy come out of sale and I'm like yeah he's definitely doable I can live with him boom this myself man I'm back [Music] as an inmate I shouldn't be able to pick my own sale the reason why that's crazy is because it's this say if we got locked up because we got an altercation now you putting us in the same room what you think about to happen you see what I'm saying so first test uh on the officers they failed [Music] I went through an entire strip search process it was actually a very thorough strip search she's blank is wash cloth towel here's your bag just have a seat right out front and they'll show you where you're going all right thank you I was kind of just going over house my demeanor what am I going to say if people ask what's going on you know a million times over in my head as we're walking to the unit the doors open and and it's game on [Applause] [Music] foreign [Applause] [Music] walking into the unit it's very obvious this is not a direct supervision designed facility the guard is in the unit follow direct supervision facility is you should be able to see into the cells you cannot there's a little tiny window in the cell door and that's it that's not direct supervision you should be able to see at any point in time all inmates so I feel like staff are already at a disadvantage as a jail Commander I would be not just scared for the inmates petrified for my staff it's it's scary [Music] this is my second time going in pod balls that's that's that's some phase one this is like my kids playground in my backyard I can do what I want to do y'all trying to see how it is I'm in a day room and I see this white kid who said hey bro you working with the camera crew I'm like now how I want to play this like I could just go up and just smack them and that just gonna seal the deal don't even open your mouth wrong you got something you disrespect me I'ma put blood in your mouth anybody here push up ID react he shut up wouldn't you shut up let's go and then all the same gangsters surrounding him who encouraged him enough to even approach me to say that now they like nah big homie he may not like that now I'm cool Big Brother Uncle OG all this man my name is Tony [Applause] it's all good man I mean Austin would never confront me if he didn't have like five six people uh telling him what to do with him being obviously the Oddball because he's white the black people they in his ear cause they ain't got the balls enough to come to me and said ain't no better so keep your mouth shut and we good [Music] so we're about five minutes out how you feeling overall it feels good at uh I guess the butterflies are kicking in a little bit down you know it's not something I'm used to doing a lot of my undercover work is a day-to-day operation or maybe a couple day operation this by far will be the biggest operation that I've been involved in the last little bit of communication to the outside world that I am for telling my life powered off I'm 46 years old I'm a Narcotics detective for the Clark County Sheriff's Office in Clark County Indiana We're season one and two or six days then originated so I worked for Sheriff Jamie Noel and he actually recommended me for this program we're used to as police officers taking people to jail and turn around leaving and you're going to stay behind and see what's going on behind the bars right the people we deal with are not your everyday citizens It's usually the worst of the worst working undercover I can go from Sunday school speaking to Street speaking pretty quick yeah you're going to hear a different Diamond when I'm on the inside instead of saying hey I passed my trade but hey give me the tray you know be safe dude use your experience and have fun appreciate share thank you sir yes I'm ready placed in jail and get going [Music] to volunteered for this Sheriff good morning looking forward to this yes I am obviously you know we chose you because you have gotten a special set of skills special ops if you will we count on you to be able to do really twice as much in half the time 30 days I have no doubt you're going to succeed and any type of intelligence that will help better us is what we're after well I can assure you I'm gonna draw on every bit of a training experience I have and I'm definitely looking forward to the opportunity a chance to get and do some good for you we got full coffee team yes sir that helps all right by far as a law enforcement officer this is about the worst feeling I could have right now it feels kind of weird I'm in handcuffs I'm a police officer I'm going to jail but uh that's what I signed up for [Music] I'm ready to go I'm ready to uh to get placed in the facility do what I do and that's undercover work [Music] so I'm in the van I'm on the way to jail and the arresting officer just stops the van and he gets out [Music] I might you know what's going on now um I'm kind of getting nervous [Music] arresting officer wanted me to try to sneak something into the jail which was a four inch long handcuff key I don't know it sounds kind of crazy but a split second decision there is like I'm taking it I don't think it's ever been done before it's just it's just it's it's crazy that's good [Music] I was worried that if I got caught coming in with that key that was gonna be some like some lockdown time some Solitaire confinment time or a good old-fashioned beat down anything else on you sir I actually stuck the key to my waistband it would be easily filled on any type of pat down so now I'm really getting nervous anxiety is really kicking in and then we come to the metal detector rate was probably at its highest it's been in a long time if they find the Handcuff key I'm afraid of catching a real charge [Music] my heart rate was probably at its highest it's been in a long time if they find the Handcuff key I'm afraid of catching a real charge foreign I walked through the metal detector and it never learned baseball I'm halfway home with it now I've got a pat down process to get through the pat down was was pretty basically but he wanted me uh thoroughly and never picked it up I could have basically come in with a lot more than just a handcuff key while you're here with us will you be withdrawn from drugs or alcohol I understand I get through the pat down process I get the detectors now what do I do with it I go in I take a shower so I slide into my shoe [Music] when I come out they had found the key in my shoe this right here and potentially could be used to escape we used to stab somebody with they put me in a holding cell by myself it was pretty hot it is I'm thinking what have I done and now I'm worried about what's going to happen next 30 days half the time looking for twice the job it's no turning back it's no tapping out it's no giving up Mark I want to be straight I'll be honest with you okay it's not going to be easy you obviously don't know me but when I set out to do something I'm gonna do it at all costs I know I'm gonna do a good job for the sheriff I know I'm gonna find things horrific things can happen if the person in charge of the Safety and Security of the unit is part of the problem foreign this place is terrible times worse and I didn't think it could get worse I never thought that I would be embarrassed of my profession as as much as I am in here she should have not just been fired she should have been arrested for what she did the other day arrested champagne is one of the guys I was watching because he's a ticking time bomb if I gotta fight somebody I hope it ain't this guy [Applause] champagne he definitely think he's big stuff that's fine but if it was a fight between me and champagne I would definitely put something on ice within hours we're talking about finding something to get high I know I'm gonna do a good job for Sheriff I know I'm gonna find things I did think about what are they saying when I'm outside of this room wow if Angel suspects me I'm in danger I already know it's a shank in there right now this is beyond Undercover Mark seemed extremely nervous I see him when he come down so he just like he like he's a recovering addict or something yeah you nervous as crap yeah it's literally all over your face uh with the way things are progressing I'm really scared things might might proceed to a physical level plan what's your plan um honestly I don't need a plan they'll bring me to clone real I'm a beast anything Tony tells Chad to do Chad does but he a grown man he make his own decisions I think Tony is becoming more than just a participant but he's actually becoming a a a bad guy let's see how far would you take it foreign phase one we've made a lot of drastic changes we're sending in four more law enforcement Professionals for 30 days to test these changes and see how we can further improve our facility we put time and energy in selecting you individually God helped me make it 30 days of this Sheriff's gonna kick my ass we learned a lot from Tony here in phase one I'd like to bring Tony back and make him a team leader to help urge the others to be a lot more successful I do see someone picking you out because you're sitting back with your hands crossed and you're looking like you're easy target Tony definitely underestimates me I felt what he did was disrespectful you know I am more than capable of handling myself if you go along within two weeks Take On Me buddy stake on me as the jail Commander I would be not just scared for the inmates petrified for my staff it's it's scary walking into 400 a couple people remember me everything's coming back to me it's like you don't get on your grind it's a Wild Force officer this is about the worst feeling I could have right now they wanted me to try to sneak something into the jail which was a four inch long handcuff key I'm thinking what have I done and now about what's going to happen next [Music] to it got a little shrine [Music] [Music] I'm shooting in real life real life [Music] all right so it seems like you have something to show us yes I do have something to show you um I get I get busy real quick so we have another shank um when did you get it two days after I got here this is no more than a um a piece of an eyeglass I mean you pretty much they made a piece for your thumb up top lock your thumb in and pretty much that's all I would use to stab somebody I get it in your neck it'll be deadly you know I mean it's it's rough it's it's pretty rough how did you get the shape uh actually uh it was just thrown in my lap to be honest myself man Chad told me he was like hey uh this this is my old cell mates so he been down under my bump and uh reached up under there and I was like I ain't see it but he gave it to me so I have to you know buy nothing or trade out nothing for it it just literally just fell in my hands what does it tell you about the jail that there's a shank just laying around in yourself um it tells me that there's more Shanks than the jail then there's still a lot of work that needs to be done in here and actually we don't need this in the pie yeah so I would give this to you just to get out the Pod um just be one less shank I'm sure I'll be able to get another one I'll give it to the sheriff okay thank you so tell me who Chad is Chad is my sale mate um he's my bookie he washed my dishes is there a term like a jail term for what that is um I mean you know people call it different stuff a hoe a do-boy do boys get protection in exchange for services wash my clothes go get my cough out of the microwave clean the sale up you know just doing with everything what a person tell them to do that is common and most black guys coming in is targeting through a lot of guys in jail have a do-boy uh with my status yeah I ain't playing man a Chad is like a like in Phase One my old Sally Justin he don't really have much going on in jail you know he don't have a support system out there so I pretty much gave him a job like I did with Justin wood uh he pretty much do everything I ask him and um while I'm in here now to test the jail system I'm gonna use that to my advantage [Music] [Music] [Applause] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] how are you how's it been going uh I'm good uh it's it's been going I don't know that I've slept yet the unit just screams I mean just screams anything and everything is happening in the unit [Applause] [Music] there's drugs all over the unit there's Contraband being passed to and from there's you know sexual relations happening to be honest I kind of thought maybe it was blown a little bit out of proportion with training but this is by far the worst female unit that you guys have ever been in so I'm ready to see what I can learn and what what Intel I can get I'm getting arrested and going to jail today my name is Vanessa I'm 32 years old I'm a firefighter at EMT and I have eight years experience and Corrections work as a firefighter EMT is crazy 24 7. it's just it's go go go you never know what it is until that tone hits and you just go I am an excellent special ops candidate because I was a CEO for eight years in the county jail and I got a good feel of the system inside and out I'm not confrontational but if you're bringing the conversation to me it's go time wow I had no idea that's I I would have told him not to do that well just keep me posted okay you're not trying to smuggle anything together nothing in the state of Alabama was the felony to conceal or carry a hand gift key into a jail facility or Correction Facility obviously just going to jail my anxiety levels are up now they're up tenfold because they have found the key on me I'm in segregation by myself and guys that brung me to the jail facility are gone why are you in this room instead of that room right now we're just waiting on our Lieutenant to determine exactly discipline interactions that we're gonna do with it [Music] [Music] I told the officer that I found the key in the nursing station but he didn't believe it [Music] I'm thinking now the beat down or now solitary or you know some troubles going on and either way I'm gonna be here a while she can just pull over there on the other side of the car all right you want to just wait here for a minute we gotta play the situation we have to deal with [Music] right so we have the situation I just got off the phone with my producer and she said that Donovan was down in intake and he was getting script searched and they found a handcuffed key on him in intake we didn't know about it we didn't ask him to do it so we don't know what to do next [Music] so we have the situation I just got off the phone with my producer and she said that Donovan was down in intake and they found a handcuffed key on him in an intake that's never happened before and they put them in a sag cell by himself we didn't know about it we didn't ask him to do it so we don't know what to do next we did you did it I did it did you put him in the sex though no I'll give him a handcuff key okay why well with all the bad things y'all found the first time I wanted to see if we fixed some of it will this put any kind of Suspicion on him not at all okay none whatsoever you look at Donovan he has nothing on him that says police or he looks more like a meth cooker than he is anything long beard long hair look like we got him out of the back woods of Kentucky and the best one to do it with so wait but what what's going to happen to him he goes right back in just regular unit like nothing ever happened [Music] I don't know what's going on but after sitting in there worrying to death and not being able to do anything they took me out of sag and they take me on a long walk up to the pod 140 and four Airport entering the Pod is way different than it seems on TV this is probably 10 times bigger and that's much scarier myself 50. you want that set of stairs right there they open the cell door there's two bunks and a small space on the floor there's already two gentlemen playing in the Box my spot was on the floor to the right not not a good place to be but to get through that you just you go to some place that you're comfortable with like you would do on the street working on the cover so uh I kind of settled in a little bit and decide okay it's time to get to work now [Applause] awesome thank you Vanessa how are you I'm fine how are you 30 days half the time looking for twice the job I've noticed and I just throw it out there you seem to be a little bit timid a little bit of reserved but we want to get your hands dirty a lot of people think that I I come off to come but I protect myself you know when it's time to to get down and dirty I'm ready life has gotten me to a point where it's it's no turning back it's no tapping out it's no giving up you ready to do this I am ready to do this I'm just gonna hate what's gonna happen to my hair and I'll just [Music] have anything in your pockets anything in your bra anything of that necessary I haven't been in many intake areas but it was different from what I'm used to Vanessa what's your last name Knight can you spell that for me if I find anything on him I'll criminally charged the snow leather that's fine your officer serves me real well sir all right thank you when the lady approached me she was like oh I got to go strip search you or whatever and I was like okay no problem [Music] I'll get you a blanket in just a second but then going into the holding cells like none of these people have been strip searched two of them told me that they had drugs on them chronic pain and I knew then that the unit was going to be held right there there's a new beach up here right here thank you hey come here when I walked into the unit with my stuff I knew I was here for a reason so it didn't really overwhelm me because I've seen this setup before but at the same time I feel like this is real this I I couldn't believe how it really was but this is a this is a real situation it's pretty bad [Music] thank you all right how you feeling I'm ready to go get it started come and accomplish this Mission and get home my name is Mark I'm from Philadelphia Pennsylvania I am 44 years old I am a retired warrant Sergeant out of Philadelphia I was injured on a job years back I suffered a neck injury that forced me to retire but I feel right now today before I go in I am ready to go back into law enforcement and I'm hoping when they come out I still feel that way if the sheriff's looking for special op participants I'm definitely the guy I'm very confident that I can go in here and adapt to any situation and execute whatever Mission he sets for it for me anything else in your pockets that's it I have um some cash but I'm gonna take that in with me do you remember your signals signals my back is killing me now that's a little tricky one for me um it's my back and neck always hurt if there's anything this will be the the better stick right now I feel a little more nervous than I thought I would but good luck thanks guys I think it'll all kind of go away Trent almost take over and then you know I'm hoping there'll be no issues and I'll just go in and adapt like I would anywhere else good morning Mark how are you you doing good today I'm good I'm ready to get an energized and excited excited as I'll ever be and Mark I want to be straight I'll be honest with you okay yes sir this is going to be tough it's not going to be easy but we have big expectations if you want out of this Now's the Time it makes it a whole lot easier no I'm good okay I'm always the underdog and it's not a problem and while it is down all right I look forward to that thank you I believe that thank you Mark if you would step right back here to our cuff team and they'll take it from here anybody that doubts that I could be successful in this I just tell them don't judge the book bags cover you obviously don't know me but when I set out to do something I'm gonna do it at all costs and when it's over just hope everyone looks me differently and says you know what I shouldn't have thought that all right [Music] thank you when you're in there everything's so loud everything's Amplified it's a slamming of doors insanely layout whatever [Music] I mean everything besides your stock is up here take the underwear take it off the uniform's on now I got my mat I'm ready to go to my pod holy I think I'm really doing this as soon as the door open up the Unifour it's hectic people kind of just mauling around all eyes are on me now [Applause] a million things are running through my mind I'm gonna get bum rushed with this story is it going to hold up are they gonna believe me is this not gonna work I have to wait at the counter to find what cell I'll go to before I can even turn to look at the guard at the counter I have people coming up to me [Applause] are you holding what did you get in are you holding [Music] and I know we mean narcotics that's what they're hoping anyone from the outside can bring in seems like everybody is their focus is trying to get high [Music] awesome as soon as I told him no I didn't bring any I didn't get anything in it was it I was forgotten this must mean there's drugs literally everywhere I'm gonna find them and record them at this point Chad but he's definitely a dude work he'd do everything but make my bed and watch my drones and I I can handle them too I've only been in the Pod for a couple days but it's uh very clear to me that Chad is Tony's anything Tony tells Chad to do Chad does damn Tony you got him trained right familiar with the gel system Tony knows how the insides of the jail systems work I think it was smart for him to take somebody like Chad and put him to work for him because that put Tony in a position of kind of like a power within the Pod but just taking advantage of the of an individual like that I wouldn't feel okay having somebody do that for me because I've been a law enforcement officer stand up for the underdog or stand up for the low man is what my job is to do thank you [Music] I see a uh crossword puzzle book on the Seal's desk I'm like I want that I know I'm not gonna get it so I said hey Chad uh I need this uh crossword puzzle boy oh you want that cause yeah I want that man all right coming in here playing an inmate you know one of my main things was I wanted to test the jail in every opportunity that was presented and I'm like okay here's another opportunity Chad is definitely an expert thief he he know how to he can get what he wants he real smooth with what he do too like he official official but he's done that a Time so get it boom take it in the wrong we good good [Music] [Applause] all right [Music] you know come off of it now we're going upstairs down or you just don't really piss up here you go thank you I'm gonna have a stare down or you just don't really piss up here you go I already knew what it was they looking at the cameras in the facility there's several cameras mounted within every pod and while Tony has Chad and go back there getting the items I believe there's other CEOs from another area watching the cameras was it really working foreign if you get caught stealing something from the seal desk there's no outside charges you do a week to two weeks in the hole you feel bad for Chad yeah I do I feel bad for Chad because yeah I don't think it was fair uh Chad was definitely been taken advantage of he was definitely the pawn in that game uh and he got caught doing what Tony asked him to do deputy I mean he in the hole Yeah because it's something that I asked him to do but I mean it's jail he a grown man he make his own decisions yeah I take it a step too far no I don't feel like there's no boundary there there's no that shouldn't be a and nothing I do so X all that out if you feel that way I'm sorry for you turn the channel [Music] [Music] am I playing with Chad getting the crosswalk puzzle book uh it failed but better him than me because I'm in here for a reason the first time I was here the first phase like I was concerned about mainly just myself you know what I can do what I'm gonna do but this time I got the added responsibility of being the team leader um and I don't take that lightly so it's important for me to check on people make sure they're good and if I can be any help to anyone to succeed you know I want to do that and more yeah Donovan for him to be an older white guy he's playing it really good dog you see you can't expect Donovan to come in like me I'm younger and I'm black so I can fit in and you know I can move better him he's more sit back reserved sit with the older folks I mean just with him his straightforwardness you know how he handled himself around you know this chaotic situation in this environment I like the way he you know he how you do how you move I like that but Mark let's talk about Mark uh Mark seemed extremely nervous like he's sitting I see him when he come down so he just like he like he's a recovering addict or something yeah you nervous as crap yeah it's literally all over your face I pushed upon him like are you straight oh yeah yeah I'm good I was like you need anything you know I got you know I can move a little something something get some food whatever he's like oh no I'm good this and that I was like all right cool I just kept going my first interaction with Tony um he came and sat next to me his first impression towards me as he's an overconfident cocky person and that's a bully usually I mean if that's something he does then whoever chose him as a leader made a poor decision but I'm gonna push through I know I'm gonna do a good job with Sheriff I know I'm gonna find things and Tony or nobody else is going to stop me you know my first night I'm in the Cell by myself so at first I'm thinking okay this is good this is a chance for me to calm down fine tune my story if I need to just try to get a good night's sleep [Music] but because of my injury I have some back and neck pain and there was no comfortable position everything started hurting so I figured okay this is going to be an adjustment period my body will adjust overnight the next day it'll be fine [Music] you know it wasn't until about I think about five in the morning I got a new cell made okay [Music] my new soul mate Tony is um a white guy probably he's been dealing with drugs and harassed his whole life I don't know about you here no jailhouse tattoos kind of just doesn't care anymore how long yeah you're here for yourself get pulled over by a cop and you're here that's par forward of course for someone like him for every home area and as soon as I met Tony I realized this is the perfect cellmate to have he's real and some money put on somebody's books here a little bit 40 or 50 dollars worth seems like everything's drying here what seems like a lot of stuff's drying here say that today I mean within hours we were talking about finding something to get high in my books and we can get some toys it popped real quick I said this is perfect I am going to use Tony to help my agenda I'm gonna have my old lady put 20 bucks on for it I'm gonna have him find the drums I'm gonna have him buy them I'll pay him to go around and try to find something illegal some narcotics for us and then find out hey how'd you do it yeah at this point I know we're connected I know we're good I'm feeling great about the mission I feel that I am going to be able to be successful and you know prove Tony wrong [Music] is complete I don't appears to be 10-4 hello how are you I'm good how are you um [Music] it was probably about six o'clock seven o'clock shift change you know what I mean give me a paperwork and the CEO on shift that night was a little older [Applause] you want to have I'm so afraid [Music] and I could tell she was overwhelmed by just the unit because this is a Rowdy bunch I feel like they don't have much training here together 110 the inmates around this place without a doubt that's not a question even the quote unquote good guards are still not in any way in control of the unit absolutely not we started coming out to eat dinner [Music] and I saw Vanessa immediately I kind of didn't know what to do I'm like I'm not supposed to sit by her at first I was kind of like is that you know it took me a minute to like recognize and I didn't want to say anything so after she started talking I was like okay that is Heather and I didn't really show like excitement or you know do too much it was just kind of like okay she's here we're both here now so we should be okay oh myself girl you got some big old titties booty and all of a sudden I hear some shouting um but there's always shouting so at first I wasn't really alarmed because I'm like my ears are already worn out from all the shouting that I'm hearing [Applause] but I kind of glance up and at the top stairs boonie who I know has a lockdown in me so she's not supposed to be out with everybody else when we're eating CEO have made a mistake [Music] [Applause] this is gonna go bad this is gonna go that fast okay man I can't hook you by the end of the day my soulmate Tony his mission is to get high at this point and I told him that I wanted to help but now he said that he knows a guy in there you know his buddy Billy that can get this done today [Music] immigration I thought it was going to take a few weeks but this is it oh yeah [Music] I'm feeling great about the mission I feel that I am going to be able to be successful but I have a serious problem pretty much since I laid on that bed Friday my back's killing me my head's just like a constant migraine has been since hasn't subsided I figured to be some adjustments but my body's just not handling it really sucks [Applause] [Music] [Applause] the co sprayed boonie and I was just like [Applause] [Applause] she really wasn't doing anything at that point yes she wasn't supposed to be out but she wasn't a threat to that point punish [Applause] as a jail commander and with my experience in Corrections the second the CEO sprayed boonie your first instinct is to get control of the area [Applause] so as that was going on almost instinctually I went to Yale lockdown foreign what was frightening is nobody was doing that purely because of the numbers and the lack of control that the CEOs have in there I knew this was going to be bad [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] even as I'm still processing what's happening the unit goes tilt all right [Applause] I didn't know if these inmates would turn on her and attack her she's outnumbered 101 here [Applause] you know Riot mentality okay and the exchange between the seal and booney's still happening [Applause] I see Mark coming out in the pie and I I don't know what it is but it's not good I'm concerned about this dude this place is spread by the inmates like you can't put it any other way [Applause] the inmates have no consequence for their action so their first response for many aggressive response [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] one of the trustees came up to me she kind of looks almost like a sorority girl who do you live with [Music] I was telling her my cover story everything was going fine Betsy came to the cell door window [Music] [Music] s do you consider Chad a Jew boy yeah I would say he's a dude boy he pretty much do everything I asked so I said hey Chad I need this crossword puzzle book he get it on Chad was definitely been taken advantage of myself to jail he a grown man he make his own decisions I don't feel like there's no Bounty that shouldn't be a and nothing I do why did he have it we didn't know about it we didn't ask him to do it I'll give him a handcuffs why well with all the bad things y'all found the first time I wanted to see if we fixed some of it after sitting in there about an hour worrying not be able to do anything they take me on a long walk up to the Pod this is a rally bunch 110 the inmates around this place upstairs is boonie this is gonna go bad and this is gonna go bad fast I'm feeling great about the mission I feel that I am going to be able to be successful about pretty much since I laid on that bed Friday my back's killing me I have a serious problem [Music] s [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Village oh okay [Music] [Music] Mark seemed to be nervous I don't know I don't know what's going on I see a mark coming out and I I don't know what it is but it's not good I'm concerned about this dude I hope he don't bring the pudding [Music] for no reason [Applause] already chaos is just now gone up about 15 levels [Applause] you know [Applause] hey everybody let's go this isn't gonna end like I don't know how this is gonna end up everybody get by your doors all right it did take an awful long time for backup to get there and help that's you booney could have done severe damage to her if she got a hold of her now [Music] she didn't deserve to be sprayed the CEO probably could have called a supervisor and they caught they could have handled it without causing a commotion and I could tell she was overwhelmed by just the unit because this is a rally bunch and I think the only training that a lot of these women have are just yelling to the top of their lungs that's about it [Applause] you know it's just very eye-opening to see how South situations can go so quickly because of their lack of control it's shocking how unsafe it is how out of control it is it's scary I'm glad Sheriff Horton's wanting to make the changes changes need to be done absolutely there's no doubt the changes need to be done foreign it was a major failure and I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen again the sheriff did make a lot of changes you know he's on the right track 100 percent with that being said I'm gonna keep collecting Shanks I'm Gonna Keep testing the CEOs every step of the way so now I'm trying to get my hands on some drugs [Music] no so O'Shea came to myself uh the first phase I bought a shank from him so I'm like okay here's another opportunity I was still in Craig for a while okay maybe [Music] hell yeah [Music] how many calories like a suit for five pills [Music] all right man a honey bun dog how many times iPhone [Music] it's just it's too easy I'm having fun to be honest I give them the honey bun he give me the pills [Music] it's just crazy that I could just easily get some pills like that and I want to show the sheriff on the second phase how easy it is to get cloned to do you have a plan what's your plan um honestly I don't need a plan they'll bring me to come [Laughter] [Music] um so yeah [Music] what's going on hmm so I guess when I came in I was prepared for everything yeah dealing with the people my story one of the few things I thought I'd be okay with was my health and pretty much since I laid on that bed Friday my neck my head's been spinning my back's killing me I literally feel like it was just my car accident all over see freaking like light dots when I'm looking sitting ourselves for 18 hours a day and my body's just not handling it it really sucks she's having to sit in your style 18 hours a day that is that is a lie but that sounds psychological how much of this is psychological versus physical today right now I think very very little I haven't felt this head pain like this I've never felt this even when I had the concussion it sucked but it wasn't as severe as it is now on a scale of one to ten how would you rate your pain level my dad's like a 15. you think you need to go to a hospital yeah I don't want to say that here I mean that's that's severe that's that's how bad my head's hurting right now my head and it's spinning I'm not used to this do you want to leave [Music] yes I gotta go 100. [Music] awful I feel like a piece so if you didn't have the pain you would stay yeah if I hadn't if I didn't have this injury yes I would stay I knew I could do it and I know I could I just physically can't like the excuse I'm sure people think it is but the the last thing I thought would get in my way again in my life was my help should we be prepared to take you to the hospital I'll let you know [Music] [Music] is our plan Bruh Bruh I made a trade with O'Shea for five pills and now I want to show the sheriff again on the second phase how easy it is to get cloned now do you have a plan what's your plan um honestly I don't need a plan people come to me they know I got the store they know I got money I mean I don't even need to put it out there and advertise like I'm looking for a nail brain media clone foreign the drugs are rampant in there so I figure you know I'll buy as much as I can ultimately I know that if I buy all the drugs by the time everybody else run out of drugs I know Imma have them all like I had one guy say hey you don't need smoke drugs I said no I don't smoke drugs but I'm a hustler like I I that's what I do I'm a hustle I make things happen hey listen I got two right now all right that two three four five it was a nice amount I gave um four or five items for the phone yes hey you're a fish yo your official like at this point I got prescription pills I got clone also known as K2 was that a problem uh at this point no because people you know they they they offer stuff like that to me so it's like if I can report back to the sheriff and let them know it's way better than it was however it's still a lot of work that needs to be done in here anymore [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] due to Safety and Security any sexual favors that could happen women could be raped and it's just nobody would even know what's going on because the CEOs are so occupied with roaming around the units [Music] can you remind me the weather oh my goodness [Applause] [Music] [Applause] she's talking about fighting me the inmates they're loud up until about two three in the morning the inmates have no consequence for their action so their first response for many of them is a violent and aggressive response they don't hide it it's not a shock they are yelling screaming constantly all day long who they're mad at who they're gonna fight and if I'm hearing it I I know the CEOs are hearing it everybody [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] hurts to get wrong because [Music] [Applause] the CEO is kind of like confused like you didn't really do anything for the situation she was just so confused [Applause] [Music] [Applause] they've gave every indication that they were going to fight and that is what they did it got pretty pretty intense [Music] [Applause] this place is bringing by the inmates like you can't put it any other way foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] there is no control over the unit [Applause] [Music] [Applause] s so I dropped the ball on that fight they could have prevented the fight they could have prevented the whole situation time watching this happen I you know I immediately click into the steel roll myself into a jail Commander I'm ashamed I'm embarrassed these are two females full-blown fighting for the better of five minutes while Correctional Professor rules stood by and could not take control of the situation at all [Music] this is the second major fight that I've seen since I've been here and both times the first reaction was quick to the pepper spray but neither time did have any effect [Applause] let's go just sitting there and watching that happen was very difficult but it motivated me even more because it just showed how much help Sheriff Horton needs to get this place under control [Music] me and a specialized participant with eight years experience and Corrections I didn't think any facility could have as many problems as this place like I've never this is unreal I did not like how they responded to the code it was pretty slow it's just so out of control in here [Applause] people could actually be dying Behind These doors there's so much going on in here this is not safe [Music] right what you think of this place would get you in the way it does like I'm just trying to make it didn't expect it would be this bad but it's way worse than I ever could imagine anything could be here [Music] let's go foreign [Music] I would say to Tony and everybody that is going to pre-judge me you don't know what I went through physically [Music] I don't think Mark could handle stress to being inside of Jeff facility last team leader I could have done a little better as far as coaching them and you know helping them along but he ain't built for this he ain't built for it at the end of the night God's one that judges me there you go I mean he's running across the street remarked Dropout is very disappointing I think Mark was just scared and he was using his back pain as an excuse to leave [Music] how you feeling actually worse oh yeah do you need us to take me to basketball not yet my body is done and there's just that's it there's nothing I can do about it I was shocked that he lived as early as he did we didn't expect any of the special ops participants to drop out so it's very scary because we do not want to have a repeat of phase one [Music] I'm feeling kind of down because I feel like okay Mark the Lost Mark I'm thinking like yo we just lost one we ain't about to lose nobody else so now I'm thinking I need to reach out to the girls I need to reach out to them and see how they're holding up foreign actually seeing guys passing letters back and forth back and forth through a little crack in the door they might as well not be a door there because there's letters that get sent through that door constantly we're next door to unit four and there's a door that is the direct link between the two units I have a girlfriend on the other side the girls talk to the Man passed their love letters they call me the mailman I collect up letters from people that's got boyfriends you know over here and I'll pass into the door for them it's just kind of a game you know you get it through so score and then you get a letter back and it's even a bigger success I don't do it because I could give to us about any man in this facility none of them can offer me anything you lock them just like me what can you do for me absolutely nothing so I see the guys running back and forth to the mail doors all day extremely dangerous the females are right there a lot of these guys know a lot of these females from the street their co-defense they got locked up together they're just writing notes saying hey we're gonna tell the judge I'm gonna take the drug charge you take the pistol charge it shouldn't be like that so I'm like oh snap with this Mail system I can send a note to check on the women big opportunity to test the note system so I wrote a letter to Vanessa they're in training in my opinion Vanessa was a little more reserved she wasn't as talkative as Heather I felt like Vanessa would have a harder time than Heaven I've lived in there so I know this is not easy at all thank you what up hey Siri [Music] messed up it was romance [Laughter] you ever feel that riding her nuts with jeopardize her cover um no I think what would jeopardize her cover was what was in the notes I had to present it in such a way where they wouldn't they would think we knew each other from the streets [Music] [Music] when she said it's a Tony and I was like it kind of shocked me a little bit because I was like is he supposed to do that I mean I didn't know how to really react to it so I was just like okay I just took it foreign he did write in there some stuff to make me realize it was him a coded message about training describing our first meeting what we all wore when I was like okay this really is him because nobody else will know this he was putting like little messages in there and saying hey you got this you know him encouraging me just to keep going cause I was ready to go oh mentally I was done [Music] Tony's note made me want to stay and say okay well I can do this I can figure out something to do [Applause] so I did decide to write him back just so he knew that I actually did get the note and for me as a participant it's a great opportunity to see that anything could be passed through that door if it can fit foreign people is just stupid the man should not be on the same level as women I love you baby that you could actually talk to the men like hear their voice you could talk to them and tell them what you needed just having that much close contact with the man it's a bad situation like for the jail or for the sheriff oh yeah no there are hundreds of nose pants to adore every day anything that'll fit under that door they can pass it yes I love you obviously they're passing drugs through there as well [Music] [Music] uh Four Horsemen songs [Music] so the morning after the big fight one of the trustees came up to me she kind of looks like a sorority girl who do you live with [Applause] yeah I guess 30 days I was telling her my cover story everything was going fine in Utah yeah yeah [Music] I wasn't sure you know if Betsy was going to believe me but she wasn't questioning anything she kind of went away pretty quickly I was like oh that was kind of easy that wasn't too bad [Music] when a new person walks in you immediately can tell if they're from here or how if they've done time here before how familiar they are with the way things were [Music] [Applause] thank you huh anytime something unexpected like that happens I'm on edge so I was really nervous you told me about it me are you are you kidding me 11 or 60 days to lose my mind I realized oh don't we have a problem [Music] see what's going on you know I look up to Tony he's being a good team leader and I got a lot of respect for him [Applause] yeah I was on the phone man I don't want to let Tony down so I'm trying to come up with the way to test the jail system so I thought it'd be a little different to try to get some actual tobacco tuned tobacco yeah getting anything into a jail facility is testing the system a little spit so I'm determined to get some type of chew into the jail I started that process talking to a lot of different guys and trying to get something going I'm coming up with nothing yeah it was like hard than it would be to get dope in finally I talked to this guy Andre people know me and sometimes some people need help to get something it's just like the streets we talked a little bit and he's like I'll find it for you know I'm like how sick of this happen he said who knows something like that's not really an answer I see Donovan and he looked like he's having a hard time I hope he get his bearings together and succeed that what he's doing oh someone else asks something about a TV show and I was like well we have cameras we're booking um did you know better than ask me that [Music] so when Betsy came to the window and said you're 60 days in I'm on to you honestly I was like okay I gotta Step It Up gotta be more Progressive so I wanted to make sure that you know if she did think I was part of the program that she wasn't spreading it foreign I was just so nervous about just having her believe me because I knew that this was kind of a make or break point that she believes me now or she's not going to [Applause] Betsy mentioned that the reason she was in Alabama was because of her girlfriend so I knew at that time that she was gay how old are you yeah I realized that I could use my sexuality to help get her on my side and to reduce the sessions that I'm part of the show that's crazy I am a lesbian I am single so if I could use Betsy to gain some information from the sheriff then I have no problem with that I do I was out for my free time then another inmate comes up to me and he's like you got me a phone and I'm just like what it worked yes yes yes so when I realized the note was from Vanessa I was excited about it but this Mail system is so serious every time I know this past you know that's that that's that that's the chance something bad can passing drugs using crush up peels slide pills through there I mean it's all bad [Music] they're gonna be so pissed with me when the sheriff blocked that little hole off they're gonna be living [Music] [Applause] foreign I'm developing a connection with Betsy I just know having her on my side is a good thing Heather's one of the rare ones we have a lot in common and she was very polite and very humble just kind of low-key and I feel like I'm kind of like that too I just you know I can relate to that I can empathize with her and just you know just kind of try to make it a little better for whatever I can do to help [Applause] oh [Music] yeah okay good you're so nice oh are you sure yeah do you think Betsy is sexually attracted to you do you feel like you have Betsy in the palm of your hand you know I do feel like she trusts me so that in and of itself just kind of lets me have a little bit more control over what's going on thank you because of how friendly she is and how great she is to me there's the possibility that she's sexually attracted to me [Music] so nice she just brought me stuff it's not something that reciprocate and that concerns me if it comes to the point of you know do or die I don't want to blow my cover I don't want to have her he's suspicious of me again okay yes just telling Tasha I'm like hello fancy thank you yeah Betsy has feelings that I can't reciprocate she could very well and probably will turn on me I am playing the dangerous game champagne he definitely think he's big stuff I don't trust champagne at all champagne is a ticking Time Bomb if I gotta fight somebody I hope it ain't this guy I started getting close with Betsy things will probably progress [Music] they took me into a cell with two people Angelique I feel like staying or something by the night baby if Angel suspects me I'm in danger [Music] wow yes I don't think Market handles stress to being inside a jail facility I do feel that the same leader I could have done a little better as far as coaching them and you know helping them along but paying bill for this paying bills you know it's just very eye-opening to see how South situation is going to go so quickly because of their lack of control it was a major failure and I'm pretty sure it's going to happen again [Applause] guys pass letters back and forth back and forth through the door so I'm like oh snap with this Mail system I can send a note to check on the women I am a lesbian I am single so if I could use Betsy to get information I have no problem with that but if Nancy has feelings that I can't reciprocate she could very well and probably will turn on I'm playing the dangerous game [Music] within the first few days of me being here I started getting close with Betsy Betsy shared with me why she's in here it stems from a parole violation due to some possession charges from Tennessee [Applause] and she's let me know that she's a recovering drug addict she knows a lot of stuff she knows about the inner workings who's doing what who's dealing what where they're getting it from so having her on my side and having a close connection with her I know I'm going to be able to ascertain a lot more information than if I didn't mean [Applause] [Applause] is a drug dealer are you sure because I wondered I'm like what is she doing learning from Betsy has been very very beneficial but I would say I think that Betsy might be well it's developing feelings for me yes how does that feel so it's I mean it's it's very easy to be flattered and to to fall into the the flirting I mean because we do we we absolutely flirt with one another and yeah I am human and Betsy's a great person but I do feel bad because of the fact that I am under hearing or you know false pretenses and the things I've told her are not accurate you know as time goes by and we're getting closer I'm more and more worried that something's going to happen where you know I am going to have to do something that might hurt her [Music] getting Tony's note was a game changer simply because it made me want to stay to get to work if I didn't get Tony's note I would have this would have been over with now it's like game on I'm trying to spend time just out in the open so I can see everything so I can be a little more active and I can get more information on the drugs [Music] they sat right there in church and rolled up some clone but no CEO is going up there to actually look and check that's a problem and something needs to be done here ain't nobody pushing up on me nobody would you do it I get commandment check this out show you how we live last phase it took me about a week to be a pod boss this time two or three days now I'm the alpha melon here it's gonna be rare yeah an individual's gonna fight me one-on-one but eventually I'm going to run into someone who you know who gonna challenge me and that's I mean that's just what it is in my first couple weeks here as an undercover officer I've been meeting people that I've never met and talking to him and being competent enough to let the inmates feel like that I fit in I was I was supposed to be here [Music] so a guy comes up to me and he's uh he's a large black male about six five he's all tatted up he knows the talk he walks the wall his name's champagne and I thought this guy's gonna be trouble call me champagne James because I'm fine tall drink of wine [Applause] is we're gonna stop all of us right now you know what I mean go beat his ass hold him hostage and get out of jail this is your jail is some daycare type they don't take it seriously the real person I knock your ass off if you really really want me heavy I'm gonna do nothing but reconnaissance on you and I'm gonna track you down and I'm gonna hurt you [Music] champagne is a large guy and he's he's built he would be troubled to anybody in our pod who want to go up against him physically for sure across too try for us too champagne I sized him up he signs me up big dog in the pie right until he met me so uh just like in phase one I sell my store to other inmates because it means money and power everything if you need I got it and I said uh look Bro Look I give you whatever now don't play with me 49. see in my pod I'm running stuff and if champagne owe me something I can use that to my advantage um so uh I give them like four or five items I said here boom all right you owe me so and now I got you you're in my pocket [Laughter] yeah yeah oh I need four I'm texting bro commissary come only on Tuesday so by Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday I'm the only one holding the store I'm in control so pretty much I charge extra for everything oh see I can't do that I got the text you know I'm here to buy drugs Shanks all types of Contraband that I gave the sheriff my word that I was gonna do so I'm just like I'm trying to make money real quick real I'm not gonna sit in you know say like do like the locals dude that's what they still broke I got a taxi and run it up man I blew a horn in the driveway man I gave you what you cookies yeah I owe you for life yeah how many hours I give you two hours I gotta roll down nah I gave you 100 some cookies and oh you just pushed back up on my schedule your honey bun I gave champagne like four items and if you don't pay me back you know I could appear weak I can't I can't have a reputation like that in jail I just tell you I smart like two days like yesterday uh and uh he was like oh nah bro I ain't gonna play with you I ain't gonna play with you I ain't gonna play with you I said all right so as long as you know I said when it comes time to pay up you need to pay up bro cause for real for real thank you [Music] go ahead and pack your stuff up because we're not happy to do this now out where's your roommate at each other all of a sudden they waved me to come over and I'm not sure what's going on foreign I was confused but I just went with it I mean there's no arguing about moving the sale so okay when they open 5 40 they happen to be Angelie one of the girls I saw smoking clone or whatever in the day [Music] and see my clothes clothes out this is doing a hard time I've been to prison before ain't everybody knows that when it comes to dealing with angel I picked your ass up a slam such as I just did a year and she got out for 30 days and they picked up again because somebody snitched on us Angie is a very important person in the whole jail and I love angel you can never break me up and everything else and nobody never know until the guard doing a check and find you on the ground believe me I loved it like I tell everybody I ain't gonna be locked up forever your time was coming whether it's in the prison or when we get back to the street you can't hide still made with Angel and Angelique I could get more information on the drugs they know each other they're related they don't know me so how many more days you got this old last week and they got to come get you before this week up no I'm talking about like I'm just saying it's my last full week next week but if I ain't mistaken they have to say they coming in order for them to hold you 30 days so far they they are accepting me I think I'm playing it out pretty well I swear to God [Music] I know I did that if I give someone some commissary and they don't pay me back you know I could appear weak I did so I have to you know enforce some type of discipline I got to do something to you put on this show for everybody else who looking get ready so store they come right so that means it's time to pay up I see champagne got this little bag he got his items in there yeah you um if they walk over there so mind you people looking right people looking so I gotta act some type of way to make sure my name stay silent bro he definitely think he's big stuff that's fine but if it was a fight between me and champagne I would definitely put champagne on ice me and champagne winning the sale [Music] and I just back up like how we gonna play it bro I need me he was trying to pay me with other people's debt but you don't borrow nothing from me and think you gonna pay me back off of what people owe you okay when he came to ask me for it I gave it straight to him I ain't tell him I need to run around and run hoops and call different people no you man if you hungry I'ma feed you so you ain't about to pay me out of somebody's pocket I ain't with the finessing in the games you gonna pay Tony first two things how did this end with this deal I got paid [Laughter] he paid his desk me checking him put him in this place in front of everybody they're like oh man Tony yo he checked champagne I know what he'll do to me it's like that that image you know if he'll step up to the biggest man in the Pod I know he's gonna step with me I'm a man about myself you feel like disrespect you bro listen here next time just don't play with me bro he made a wise decision to challenge me but that's just this time moving forward we'll see what happens [Music] my job here is to help the sheriff Administration figure out how stuff gets in the jail system the biggest test of the system in my opinion is getting what you want in jail obviously I don't want to get illegal drugs narcotics in the jail but I thought since I chew I was going to try to test the guards I get some tobacco in [Music] um [Applause] we kind of had me out of this Airport [Applause] so I'm striking out [Music] loud all right Waters come stand me says somebody had came through intake with some tobacco about a half can of tube inclusive no matter what it took to make that deal I was going to come up with it a few e-cig trades and some chips and we get a about a half can of chew [Music] small one I seen Donovan with the chew I was completely impressed and he actually gave me some chew [Music] I 100 I was like okay yeah so he with it he with it he's definitely making progress laughs [Music] I'll take care of you yeah yeah you're really strong so I've been spending a lot of time with Betsy we talk about tons of stuff lots of stuff um really stuff that you talk about when you're developing a relationship with somebody [Applause] around yeah [Applause] I will say I care about Betsy immensely I mean you can just tell she's a good person you'll talk to people whether it's here in jail or just in life that you just don't get a good feeling about them and you get a great feeling when you talk to Betsy you know chance [Applause] I don't know I hate that phrase because you know take away the the Etowah County jail and the inmate and jail commander and you know a relationship at that level where you're sharing those types of things things will probably progress [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] why wouldn't you [Music] thanks for watching nobody's watching everybody all right yeah [Music] I did not think things would get to this point I wasn't ready for it you know I pushed her away and immediately I could tell I hurt her feelings I was all sorts of distraught yeah coming into this I was completely you know resigned to the fact that I was going to use my sexuality to maybe get close to people and you know to maintain my cover to be believable to get Intel but I will not cross any physical lines that's going too far however I just hurt somebody that I don't want to hurt and then there was also I was like oh what if your suspicions would come back that maybe I am 60 days in and she would start telling people again and all the work I had done to get people to believe my cover story would be for not foreign [Applause] in bed I hear some commotion going on outside on our names streaming I feel like the pod's very disorganized like the jail is not in control of the jail it's pretty much uh the inmates calling out the shots this guy named Cantrell started accusing Houston of touching his wife on the street before they even got locked up tonight [Music] me and my girlfriend at the time we were staying in abandoned house right down the road from the jail here and uh he was touching on her and stuff while she was asleep for a fact I know I caught him yo what you mean go let's go come on the CEO's air oblivious they just gonna do the bare minimum and you know keep moving here uh Houston came out got his ponytail up and stuff [Music] at that point uh contrail back off but then he go to uh champagne cell and talking to him no yeah which one Cantrell asked champagne to do his dirty work for him in the beat up Houston for the dog and pour it out right now yeah so he's like forty dollars yeah I'm game if you need a crash dummy to do your dirty work you can just give him forty dollars and he'll Do Your Dirty Work everything [Music] okay foreign he picked on like people who he know he can be fit if there was a fight between you and champagne who would win and we fight five times I went for a guarantee he might win it won champagne assaulted an inmate and nothing happened to him what taken out of the Pod wasn't locked down no disciplinary action was taken well he was talking about in front of the co no nothing was done champagne is trouble suicide watch to be dealt with immediately I feel like I feel like stabbing somebody tonight baby shut that door that's my confidential informal until we found out otherwise [Music] that was about to get her killed that's what you call emotional discovery you fired for that when you go to come to jail when somebody snitch on you or something and they don't put names in it no more they put confidential informant normals uh this 1967. yeah that's her number supposably that's the perfect number and she had been selling to an undercover police officer that she didn't know it was police being an SL they talk about a lot I mean of course a lot of people here talk about their personal lives but they're talking about actual business that they're doing on the streets which is Criminal business that you have to read [Music] a real live drug dealer and I will kill you excuse fast if I find out who you are they obviously feel comfortable enough to talk about whatever they talk about in front of me but now I'm to the point where if they find out that I'm working on the cover I'm in danger she gone I wanted to get out of here before nine o'clock it is 7 44 and I still have lockdowns to shower showers wow here's actually what they mean I don't know I'm trying to figure remember if y'all's accent it's thick enough to be from someone else though she shouldn't sound like she's from Alabama awesome [Music] Disney characters is they lied to me she's 60 days in Alabama [Music] what's up [Applause] champagne assaulted an inmate and nothing happened tonight they think it's the game in here champagne was just you know acting crazy and there's no consequences for him it's hard just sit and watch [Applause] [Music] they got a plan job bro huh oh bro so there was a boat which is the bed that you lay in on the floor uh it was over action in front of my door it's cold outside [Applause] just out of my view but I hear him holler something I'm still trying to look out the corner of my cell door Scott come here foreign [Music] lockdown [Music] you're not going to be like them before I'll let you know at the sale here in a few minutes other people laugh a little bit and it doesn't happen nobody got hurt and bad you have gotten hurts myself man champagne punches the guy in the face a few times zero habits to him he he he's trying to be a comic and rides a boat down the steps and gets two days lockdown [Music] [Music] when you're dealing with inmates you have to be consistent you can't come in today and be a pushover and let everybody run over you then the next day you come in with an iron fist you can't be that way we'll get the rest of your stuff and bring it to you that soon is a bad message to me as an inmate and to my all the inmates now the inmates are aware of the officer's negligence and that's a chance something bad can happen this is where it gets real [Applause] I believe your whole night so I can find you on Facebook when I get out of here thank you where are you today how somebody gonna find you what you said because when you leave us well no I don't do Facebook because I'm trying to just keep my personal business outside of what they're talking about but my man I killed him if you wanted me now we got we got people that are no no I don't know we got people that are handling it I'm okay we did a joke we didn't talk but it was just like the joking and talking was me deflecting a lot so we just ain't gonna never see you I'm coming back to Alabama why did you go to Alabama we got we coming specifically to see you the hell you talking about again when they said they was gonna come to Arkansas and find me in my mind I was just thinking like hopefully after I'm gone and you know they forgive me like just completely forgive me I do not want them to come to Arkansas I do not want them to find me oh okay if Angela suspects me I'm in danger and I already know it's a shank in there this is very serious how are you so when Vanessa came to myself I immediately got very nervous I knew she had just moved into Angel's cell really hadn't talked to her since that move had happened I didn't know what was going on but I just knew that I wanted to make sure she was okay yeah they are talking about the business that they're doing on the streets I don't want to know about that stuff because later on I don't want to be at home and Somebody's knocking on my door about this stuff familiar lives at risk yeah one of our protective custody inmates in there Ashley Caswell she was yelling and screaming at Miss Richardson horrific things can happen if the person in charge of the Safety and Security of the unit is part of the problem things were going to get a lot worse it's my last week I want to keep pushing the COS I got Jamaica in my crosshairs right now I think Tony pushed Jamaica to his Breaking Point thank you I feel like stabbing something by tonight baby because I do got a shirt if Angel expects me I'm in danger this is very serious champagne's just you know acting crazy and there's no consequences for them CEOs here they can definitely use the Improvement I gotta turn it up a notch all right I did not think things would get to this point what if her suspicions would come back that maybe I am 60 days in and she will start telling people again and all the work I had done to get people to believe my cover story would be for naught foreign [Music] after the whole kissing incident happened with Betsy it's been kind of weird you know not knowing where Betsy's head was at or what she'd be thinking about me I was concerned what might transpire um I wasn't sure you know Betsy was going to be mad if she you know after thinking about things she was going to think I'm part of the show again and she was going to go around telling people she has a very good pulse in the whole unit the whole unit loves her she could turn the whole unit against me in a heartbeat if she wanted to does that make you feel that's that's that's nerve-wracking [Music] what 1713 when you don't know the point [Music] [Applause] so Betsy was called out to get released for her but sad [Applause] when I realized that Betsy was being called to go roll up you know a few different emotions went through me I was excited for her first and foremost because I know this is what she wanted and this will better her life but at the same time getting close with Betsy was my greatest opportunity to get the type of information that I I was wanting in the jail so with Betsy leaving I'm going to be losing a major player in my investigation I felt like I was gonna have to start a ground zero and I knew I had to step it up because I don't have a lot of time left [Music] [Music] it's my last week I want to keep pushing the CEOs [Applause] [Music] it's really like weed out bad officers corrupt officers so what I do just little little stuff that pisses off cos I know it pisses me off and my facility purposely wait until he say lockdown then go jump in the shower or you go hurry up and go jump on the toilet like you're using the restroom who else is in here you go hide where you can hide it I mean I'll hop down this desk if I could yeah I wanted to challenge them if they say go left I'm going right purposely to see how they're going to react I didn't think I'd be playing hide and seek in jail [Music] [Applause] you know every chance I get to put them in an uncomfortable position that training can't train you for I'm gonna do that [Music] particular guy CEO jamichael as an inmate like he's he's my freaking worst enemy dude I do want to go home the same way I came and that's that's everybody so you gotta expect that always looking at the one to seeing what's going on and um multiple times Jermichael sleep I mean he snores he snores and everything jamichael I'm coming for you bro yeah um [Applause] since being in here I realized that the jail is full of gangs and gang members gang members from the Bloods from the Crips from the Hispanic gangs the MS-13 and from the uh Aryan Brotherhood and I'm a police officer one of the worst places for police officers to be is in jail [Music] a whole bunch of snitches and ass people in the unit right now you're the police come and beat your ass up I'm a gang affiliated yeah I got like a lot of like game tattoos on my face and like it's on my body and stuff like that too the gang's really running this deal and I'm still suspicious the game's suspicious and if you are the suspect you're gonna get beat up if someone finds out somebody's public site I'm gonna go tell all the Bros I'm gonna tell the crib they're gonna go in on it you get stabbed up I mean I've seen it all so there's this guy on the Pod uh Zach Miller the he came up to me initially we talked a little bit uh he's a tall thin white male reading his tattoos and looking at him and then him talking uh you can tell he he's into the Airing Brotherhood [Music] the southern Brotherhood were an organization we got our own closed website we got a motorcycle game but it's all a lot Organization no blacks no mix or nothing can't be in the ABS or SBS Donovan from Kentucky he just come in here recently we just started we just got linked up with him we count on him if something pops off they accepted me almost immediately just by my parents alone and being a white male the Airing Brotherhood are responsible for a lot of the methamphetamine that moves within our pod getting in with the with Aaron Brotherhood is would be a huge opportunity for me to see how the drugs were actually brung into facility from the time it comes in through intake until it goes to the last person that's using it see where it goes we all organizers well can I steal you while they organize the room you want to go hey guys all right thank you great this this is like way more then I want to get involved in just listen to that stuff what do you mean I feel like I'm learning more than I need to know can you explain that a little further for me angel and Angela are talking about crime is committed on the streets me listening to that feel it it puts me in more danger if I stay in that room they are talking about actual businesses like that the business that they're doing on the streets which is Criminal business I don't want to know about that stuff because later on I don't want to be at home and Somebody's knocking on my door about this stuff you feel you feel your life at risk yeah after I leave here it won't be hard to find me I don't want anybody coming after me it's like I'm just trying to make it but I mean I feel like I'm In Too Deep being in that cell s I'm ready to go home with your situation what you've shared with me I guess my question for you is what do you want to do it's just in my mind this is something I never thought I would do anyway so to even do it and be here and be this far in I can't give up I can't go but I can't leave right now that's not who I am at this point I mean I just feel like it is what it is I can I feel like I can finish and for the next day or so I feel like I can't I give the signal and I just need to go [Music] okay [Music] I know I got you know a test to complete [Applause] yeah if the information that we give them at the end of this is going to help because something needs to be done here foreign [Music] so I got Jamaica in my crosshairs right now Andrew Michael leave me alone I pushed him and you know fooled with him and mess with him because I want to see if he gonna remain professional like when I call him out of his name when I act a certain way I want to see how he's going to act tonight [Music] [Music] can you guys understand her when she knows I have no clue what she says so I already knew today was going to be a bad day waking up and seeing that Miss Richardson was the seal that was on duty her nickname in the unit is screaming demon and it started right from the beginning of her shift [Applause] [Music] Miss Richardson she's really young I don't think too many people like her [Music] face Richardson we never get along and she harasses me she has a kind of like a bad you know bad girl attitude and screams a lot foreign s are very arrogant um condescending even you know flipping their hair kind of rolling her eyes at you they gave her a badge and it went straight to her head you know I'm surprised nobody has whipped her ass [Music] hey make sure everybody's locked down before you let her out make sure everybody's behind they locked the door before you let her out one of our lockdown inmates in there Ashley Caswell she was yelling and screaming out of her cell at Miss Richardson and this is a pretty normal occurrence with Miss Richardson and Caswell they don't like one another searcherson takes away caswell's free time and she leaves her in herself all day long that alone is gonna amp you up [Music] Miss Richardson should be the one calming it down and de-escaling it she does not so Mr Richardson pops Ashley's seldora to come down and get her meds and at that point I'm like wait this is this is gonna go bad watch you never pop a cell door on an agitated inmate at any level of agitation but if they're verbally threatening you you never you never remove that barrier ever [Music] [Applause] hurt me I heard it's not caswell's first rodeo between her and miss Richardson the two of them I'd like to argue back and forth a lot I didn't do nothing [Applause] throwing garbage trays juice just kind of going crazy as she said she was going to foreign [Applause] [Music] this incident completely was provoked and instigated by Miss Richardson it could have been 100 percent prevented [Applause] [Music] horrific things can happen if the person in charge of the Safety and Security of the unit is part of the problem foreign [Music] [Music] Brotherhood just by my parents alone and I'm a police officer so I've got to be super careful [Music] well God comes up to me his name is Billy Ray he's a short Hispanic male he's tatted up he's definitely identifiable as a gang member the gang tattoos he had were for the for the Bloods I'm familiar with with their their logo he said my family's from Louisville Kentucky your face man I know your face I never forget a face so now my my stomach's quenching hearts race a little bit because this guy's obviously trying me it was an unnerving experience at the least realizing that there's multiple gang members in here a lot of those gangs a badge honor for them is to hurt kill or maim a police officer he leaves me so I watch him as he walks away I'm like okay who's he going to talk to next you know are they gonna come back to me with with you know other him and other guys my plan was to see exactly how far I could push things what information I could get to bring back the sheriff and then I had to realize that this is guys that's done real time in prison they know how to hurt people they know how to kill people and they won't hesitate so you know how far do I want to go and talking to a lot of the gang members yeah I had to weigh up safety versus how far I want to push the envelope I was definitely thinking you know did I get in over my head [Music] and I'm surprised nobody has whooped her ass yeah it's coming now [Music] so the next day comes and you know we see Miss Richardson's on duty and we're just hoping it's over with it again pill pass happens and I knew this is really going to be bad and I couldn't do anything about it the side member was sitting right there in front of the deputy's desk as a side member they should have taken a nurse there too caswell's door giving her her meds and been done with it [Applause] [Music] [Applause] yourself almost carbon copy of the day before Ashley is even more amped up [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] she goes even more crazy throwing anything she can get her hands on come on [Applause] it's out of control right now [Applause] right here if somebody like casual has been sprayed like several times eventually that spray is not going to do anything the side member did absolutely nothing to help you needed to react and he didn't react sod comes in it's deja vu the day before and it was predictable you knew it was going to happen [Music] that's crazy [Music] I'm not scared and then not even like 10 minutes after that Miss Richardson has to serve dinner to her having to open her door again I knew that it wasn't over I can tell you right now she was plotting Revenge Ashley's very upset herself so she's yelling she's screaming [Music] [Applause] right there [Applause] let's go now even though it's dinner time when an inmate's SAT upset you still should not open the door that's wrong I couldn't believe she would really pop the door of them the cell doors pop and it's on thank you [Music] the trustees went in and they had the jug of juice and they had some cleaner and they went in casual cell and actually dumped the juice on her bed soaking all of her stuff in juice and then threw bleacher [Music] just looking at some of the inmates who are out who were looking over at the incident their faces were shocked you could tell they were shocked this is just this is bad this is so bad [Applause] right here [Music] [Music] as bad as yesterday was today's 10 times worse and I didn't think it could get worse she was just kind of put back in herself with all the juice soaked mattress and and sheets and her clothes and she was just left there to sit uation was horrible Ms Richardson shouldn't have been left alone with her just after dealing with her one time so I could have prevented that whole situation they could have stayed and served the tray to her [Music] the most disturbing thing was uh just thinking about casual how fearful she must be to know that she can't she can't even sleep in her bunk at night someone might pop the door and let people come in and kick your ass how scary is that no one deserves that was heartbreaking and I couldn't do a thing [Music] I'm sure [Music] [Music] fall going on Mr Michael I feel like he's a horrible CEO did he say we got 20 minutes to eat we end up getting like 10 15. [Music] and I know I ain't tripping because he the only CEO who'll be acting like that okay when I'm on the phone and all of a sudden they just click the button and now they hang up on my phone call that's really pissing me off yo just keep doing them little things I'm like all right bro you need to chill now you ain't gonna handle me now no no it was just a build up and I finally had enough [Music] yeah yeah I don't know for about a week Tony's been testing you Michael uh just little bits of time little bits at a time it just went from just a little playful to get a little more serious I'm looking at like all right cool let's see how you handle yourself see Tony was pushing his buttons and uh I did not know what was going to happen at that point thank you foreign foreign [Applause] he says something along the lines of I've never seen you here in Gaston and this and that he's trying to say like oh you 60 days in that's completely out of line for officer to say something like that or even hint that because the inmates look at that like oh he a CEO so he got the inside school he knows something that we don't know so yeah let's move on him now it's personal so how you want to play it I'ma bring it to you [Applause] it don't matter if I can't stop he's not backing down I'm gonna go Tony calls a disturbance to jamichael to see kind of what kind of reaction he's gonna get out to Michael yeah just calling screaming blah blah blah and they go back and forth go back and forth the inmates are definitely observing watching what's going on seeing how it's going to go I think Tony pushed jamichael to his breaking point and I'm thinking Tony just got in serious trouble you're scared um thank you not radio traffic going through it come here yeah Richardson picking on somebody that shouldn't have to pick the one if y'all got a daughter poked at for two days straight and she takes trustees up there and Pops the door and lets them throw bleach on it to get back at her people that she chose to be out there all day long yes it's not right it's not right [Music] because she can't I have a whole different Outlook now on they're supposed to Serve and Protect people but situations like that that was not protecting anybody well would it be okay if I came and told you guys out just to talk to you in the interview room and [Music] tonight [Music] how do you feel I'm I mean I'm okay just I did not think I could keep getting shocked as much as I am it's unless I actually keep using the adjective shocking and that doesn't even Encompass Encompass it it's the first time in my entire career I'm embarrassed to say I'm a correctional officer watching what some of these people do here Miss Richardson she what I saw her do over the weekend I I was literally swallowing vomit I was sick to my stomach and I never thought that I would be embarrassed of my profession as as much as I am in here I never thought that that's pretty surprising for you to say um I've always been very very proud I take such pride in what I do and helping people and representing all of law enforcement that's the thing is one bad person makes all of us look bad and there's so many good so much good but you see this type of bad no wonder people hate us no wonder I hate them and I'm one of them sorry I'm sorry you know none of these gals in here have any respect for for law enforcement because that's what they see and it's wrong it's wrong the worst CEO I've ever been around in my entire career just walked back into the unit today when she should have not just been fired she should have been arrested for what she did the other day arrested laughs here in a couple days good morning good morning and how she harasses me [Music] when I returned to the Pod Casper was still on lockdown I wasn't sure exactly what's going on but I knew I wanted to check on her and see how she was okay thank you thank you my cellmate Ashley and I our hearts are going out to Caswell I was surprised that she's still even here seriously seriously [Music] [Music] all day I'm not sure [Music] oh my gosh do you see what happens we don't know if she was asked to or she's quitting [Music] [Applause] so Charlie [Music] [Applause] [Music] Wayne I heard Miss Richardson was let go everyone in the unit was ecstatic [Applause] it is a good thing for Etowah County that she is no longer employed here they fire me because they said I did a proper use of force but I was doing what my sergeant asked me to told me to do I mean I had no choice I was doing my potato commands told me today the whole situation is messed up [Music] cheers [Music] take you out of here [Music] this guy told my my Sally at the one who's like hey they come to yourself I had a shame so I grabbed the same flush that real quick I'm like boom I can't get cold now next thing you know the doors is being opened my side and I'm of course I got that deer headlight looks like what what's what's going on just walking out to sell people looking so the first thing I'm thinking is what's really going on like where are you taking me you gotta escort out by the side guys they come and took him off in handcuffed and I'm thinking damn Tony's he's gonna be locked down for several days uh and I'm Gonna Be Alone [Music] I'm thinking like all right it's time to tap out I don't get afraid of a lot of things but going to say was the first time I ever been nervous everybody got a break apart Tony has a lot of stuff in his in the cell so those guys were trying to get items that shakedown's gonna happen tonight that did give her time to hide just like stuff that she didn't want them to find them again because I was on him all right listen I got the key to this door right now guess what we've gotten word from our control room and the inmates think that the production and the participants are police all Four's gonna come out right now foreign [Music] he's definitely identifiable as a gang member there's multiple gang members in here a badge honor for them is to hurt kill or maima police officer and they won't hesitate right if somebody like Caswell has been sprayed like several times eventually that spray is not going to do anything when an inmate's SAT upset you still should not open the door the cell doors popped and it's on no one deserves that it was heartbreaking and I couldn't do a thing if the information that we give them at the end of this is going to help then I do feel good about helping because something needs to be done here my goal with this phase is to test the CEOs 100 I got Jamaica in my crosshairs right now I think Tony pushed jamichael to his Breaking Point foreign [Music] [Music] all right so what we're doing honestly it's like it's like me and he police he can just wave of wine and now I'm gone and I ain't trying to be like that I'm trying to be up there calm down give him some time to calm down and maybe things can get worked out but for the time being I can't take you back up there they can make a decision with supervisor and then go from there all right I feel like I overreached I have no idea what's gonna happen I'm like inmates went to the hole and didn't come back while I'm sitting and say my new cell mate just sitting in myself but he could easily find my drugs or my Shanks you know roll one under the door to somebody or somebody could come to the door hey I'm gonna do this to you when you come out if you don't give me all these commissary this by yourself I don't get afraid of a lot of things but going to say was the first time I ever been nervous scared or anything the first time everybody got a Breaking Point I'm thinking like all right it's time to hang it up [Music] the side guys come in to take Tony out in cuffs I thought damn Tony's he's gonna be locked down for several days uh and I'm gonna be on my own thank you then I actually got worried and concerned because now I'm thinking to myself what's going to happen to all this stuff now [Music] you're going to one they're gonna come back should I pack it up I'ma back it up one Tony has a lot of stuff in his in the cell so I kept my eyes on Tony cell door to see who was coming who was going there was a lot of action in his door he took him Tony has a new cell mate now who I'm not real familiar with so those guys were trying Tony cell made to try to get items like hey he heals me this I need that all right [Music] yeah I got it champagne had every intention on going there and cleaning that cell out a very item you had any money any cigarettes any food [Applause] I knew if Tony come back and stuff was gone if the fight was on I knew it was going to be a free-frow on there around [Applause] [Music] [Music] okay at this point I'm so close to being done I've been getting fed up with everything I've been seeing I've been getting so frustrated angry um sad devastated [Music] you know all the issues that sheriff Horton has in this facility they're so massive so deep so rooted it's a scary place I'm ready to let sheriff for no truly truly how horrific it is in here they're just here because I need a job it's like they have rules here but they don't really follow them a lot of them are too close to the inmates so you go into account it's hard they know that they don't care and I understand I feel like they probably don't get paid enough to deal with this type of stuff come on let's go [Applause] down we're sitting around we're talking with the trustees and they tell us uh that a Shakedown is going to happen tonight or soon they said they had talked to the CEO she told them that a Shakedown was coming so I would expect everyone to get rid of their stuff [Music] all right nine five nine first Tony told us he was going to come in test officers so he did that he went a little bit too far so we brought him down in our intake area and put him in a Cell for a cool off period and then he was ready to go back in [Music] champagne was trying to get Co to pop Tony's door while he was away and then Tony comes back in I was relieving Tony came back I kind of had that little sad relief like okay we're back to a team now I got help here I got somebody that has my back yes [Music] at the same time I thought it's kind of weird you know you got escorted out by the side guys but he's back in a few hours later even myself thought that was suspicious that Tony came back up pretty quick because I had seen some other interactions with Assad and CLS where they took guys and they didn't come back [Music] I think that put another Target on him like Hey why is he getting out so quick I was in sick rough probably four hours maybe and I already respect Jamal Moore not solely because he sent me to the hole but more so because how he handled that situation he didn't go for what I was selling them so it was perfect that was amazing [Music] are you serious yeah however me not uh spending a week in the hole or a couple days in the hole it definitely uh opened the door for more suspicion it's like dude is he really 60 days in yeah [Applause] [Music] so um I definitely feel like they're they're on to me they're on to me foreign good morning glad everybody come out this morning really appreciate it uh 10 months ago we did the first Shakedown we filled up four tables of Contraband but our jails had a lot of improvements uh a lot of our security has been enhanced so I believe that this time of things will be better thank you sir when I first came into office we did a full Shakedown and found over 5 000 pounds of contraband and now after two phases of the program we want to do a final Shakedown to see how far we've came [Music] there's already suspicion on the women and with a situation between Tony and Jamaica there seems to be suspicion on Tony as well so I want to do this Shakedown now because the participants may not have much time left [Music] come on out punch oh man it's like five in the morning you get a surge around 5 a.m doors pop open something's up you know they're raiding the whole Pond now just come around Center Hill as well okay take me outside gets the wall hands up they're patting you down looking for any Contraband you may soaring yourself [Music] okay since I've been in we've had a couple shakedowns they come in they glance around and then they go to the next death when they came in it was a big difference radios had a straw inside of it they usually smoke marijuana and then the other one's got something wrapped up inside though I heard a dog barking and for me a dog it means they mean business and obviously if the sheriff is part of anything that goes on in that jail it's the real deal this one of these is coming off but they broke off thank you foreign I got drugs I got Shanks in myself I'm just kind of freaking out get up [Music] y'all get dressed and stuff out [Music] come on out here young lady one of the tables [Music] and they woke us up they pulled me out of the cell the night before the trustees had told us hey you know the CEO told us the shakedown's coming so if we did have any Contraband we could have flushed it if we wanted to now if you're doing a surprise Shakedown it needs to be a surprise one of the CEOs proceeded to Pat search me it was a very basic search wouldn't have found any Contraband if they were trying add several layers of clothing on because I was so cold so I could have hidden whatever I wanted to between those layers of clothing when you're doing a proper pet search the whole intent is to find Contraband so first of all you should be stripped down to just one layer of clothing she should be able to feel if I have anything hidden in my groin area in my bra area you know I should have my ears checked my mouth checked none of that was done if that's how they're doing past searches they're missing everything [Music] I woke up because I heard Angel moving around you know they shake it down with the camera point they knew okay they doing they're doing a Shakedown so they was already prepared for it that did give her time to hide just like so that she didn't want them to find [Music] it was Contraband but I'm not sure exactly what it was [Music] [Music] Step Up [Music] my hair is always they told us to get dressed come on now so we stepped down I immediately noticed that the pat Downs were terrible I mean they was just like kind of touching here and there but not really searching enough to find anything [Music] when the officers finished it was like okay you're good made me think I'm like it's so many people in here right now with so much stuff on them it's ridiculous earlier they said they were having a Shakedown so I walked up my phone [Applause] it was the new officer that started last night so it was like okay they told us the Shakedown was coming I'm gonna let the sheriff and the chief know that the Shakedown was ineffective I feel they missed a lot if it was for the intent of removing Contraband it failed miserably get my medicine what do you know oh no [Music] let's go that's why I come over here and open your curtain you ain't supposed to have it anyway you know [Music] I love the fact that they hit us like that in the morning while everyone was sleep you know LML surprise is key nothing man but with this particular incident that wasn't a good thing because I got drugs I got Shanks in myself if I get caught with any of this you know this could compromise the whole program and put everybody at risk this ain't going according to my plan because they caught me out Blind Side I know they're gonna find it I'm just like damn how am I gonna pull this off because I don't want to get caught with drugs in a jailhouse facility you know that's that's automatically outside charges they're gonna definitely send me the sick and I'm gonna stay this time I'm just kind of freaking out um give me money I got drugs I got Shanks in myself I know they're gonna find him so we're good I honestly couldn't believe how disappointing the search was because they didn't find anything they didn't they did not find anything every bitter that was in my cell when they did that Shakedown and they did not find anything [Music] this is definitely a win for Tony however it is a loss for the jail [Music] thanks because of this over here yes [Music] so when I will debrief after doing unit five and six you know found a couple Shanks you hate to find anything but then again you're glad you're found because it could have been somebody's life that table speaks volumes compared to you know what we had on display 10 months ago this whole part of the room was taken four or five thousand pounds of Contraband so overall I'm ecstatically pleased with the findings that we have here today hey why they raise the unit like that I don't know why do you think about ponies [Music] they let us out we were gonna snatch them and beat his ass why do you think we're the police [Applause] I got the key to this door right now just watch did you just open the door great save our Prince Brothers I'm pretty aware of it you're gonna go any doors [Music] hey chief we've gotten word from our control room the inmates think that the production and the participants are police there's already a lot of Suspicion on our people and now because of the Shakedown there's even more and we've been hearing some pretty incredible threats against them and are we here you know both odds male and female or just pretty specific threats on Tony Vanessa specifically if it's an unsafe environment we're getting a lot of uh credible threads I mean their safety's number one doesn't matter how we pull it out let's get them out [Applause] [Music] [Music] I've learned from Chief Peak that there are credible threats against the participants so I'm shutting down the program and pulling all the participants out now back up I thought it was very strange that both myself and Vanessa were called to release the exact same thing I absolutely immediately thought there was something that we didn't know about we were at risk for some reason I wanted to get out of there immediately [Music] once we were called to roll up I knew the more people who saw us both leaving at the same time the more suspicion would be cast upon us so once that happened I wanted to get out of there immediately we just hate me you don't like real Alabama on your head I don't want them to come find me my biggest concern is being found in the safety of myself and my family we coming to Arkansas if you don't believe us but we come okay remember Utah right love you I have your sheets and your blankets follow me please [Music] I'm boring [Music] I was very relieved to actually go and dress out put my own clothes back on and and just to be be out of this place [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you that one's the worst place I've ever been in my life I'll agree on top of that it took a toll on me mentally and physically and emotionally I think more emotionally yeah I mean I was like oh my God well that is awkward I appreciate you checking over there absolutely I was ready to leave I think I told you that I was like I said I think I'm done I don't think I could do this anymore I said I've had enough I think I've learned enough but then I started thinking I was like I don't want to leave Heather in there I said you pretty much started together we can finish together but I still can't believe I actually did this we absolutely absolutely but have a ton of information I don't know if it's necessarily new information um definitely suggestions for improvement things that can be done absolutely that place has has a lot of work to do times 20 off time you pack it up thank you man it's not calm down so I'm lying in bed I hear the key ring Jingle the door opens and they call my name told me to roll it up roll it up means you're out all right [Music] when they call my name you know I'm like I'm extremely excited once I got my bearings and could figure out what was going on I was like oh crap CEO just sitting at the door I got my drugs hit by the uh camera and I realize I have to come up with a plan in like seconds to grab the drugs and grab the shanks [Music] I stalled him long enough for him to go somewhere else as soon as he left my cell I ran jumped up there grab him jumped back down put it in my socks [Music] all right cool all right [Music] Alabama [Music] yeah you can step in the shower and change okay step in the shower okay when we got the intake now I'm thinking like I got the drugs on my person I'm really freaking out if I get caught with drugs even on my way out that's automatically outside charges there's serious consequences if you get caught when we came in they searched me well in my book it was 100 correct if they conduct the search like that on the way out then they're going to find it but they didn't thank God [Music] destroy that oh boy I'm index of the jail that was like amazing we out of here we did it we out it's over with yeah [Music] okay [Music] go go take me straight to Atlanta bro real I feel like it's done a year man guys man how are you guys feeling good good I got something for you got some uh some clone and some uh pills and some more cash six dollars in cash [Music] I was definitely surprised that he would take that risk to not only to receive that stuff in jail to get his hands on it but to store it and keep it and then get released with it here I have roughly five pills from inmates uh buying product from me I thought all right you know he could give me a heads up hey you could try to get this out I'm gonna try to get this down so yeah it's kind of like bummed I'm like man you try to one-up me there and I thought you know there you go you know I think you should give it to the sheriff yeah exactly exactly [Music] us ual you made it man you know if we made it we made it in and out hey man you know you know everybody ain't built for this no [Music] after phase one we implemented some major changes we've invested a lot of time a lot of energy and a lot of funds we know that it will never be perfect but we certainly have high expectations of it being tremendously better I'm ready now to let them tell us where we stand and what else we might need to do [Music] Heather how are you good sir how are you good good to see you again how's it going Tony you're doing all right looking good man you're feeling good guys hiding out a pair of what oh yes sir Chief how you doing doing all right you're a lot better now hey how are you Vanessa how you doing you doing all right you feel like a bird out of the cage too don't you all right guys so we got a lot to talk about and you know to begin with after uh the last group of participants we learned in the exit interviews we had a lot of inconsistencies in our intake uh you know what did you experience in the intake area or some of what you took away from that so uh when I went into intake I really felt like I was kind of just hung out to dry I've certain times I actually asked where do you want me to go and I was I could have wandered wherever I wanted the first interaction I have knowing that Etowah County is in charge of me should be intake and that wasn't the case I know that is still just a humongous trafficking area getting the Contraband into the facility huge it seemed like it was kind of Chaos in there it was not organized the pat down process he didn't do a thorough job the seal that you know the pet Dam that is your first line of defense for anything that gets in that jail I mean that it's it's Paramount that that's where stuff stops so me personally if I had to give the sheriff a grade right now for the intake process I'd be at a c c plus uh honestly neat the intake uh I'm gonna say like a b because I mean it's a lot of stuff that you know that we're gonna get there but comparing the first phase to the second phase I'd definitely say a b well I'm going to have to disagree with both of them I'm going to go with an F yeah um when I first walked through the door I was immediately taken into a private sale where I did get a strip search she took my headband and my belly ring that's all that I really had on me well when I went into my hold and say with other ladies immediately I saw bobby pins one lady had about seven of the same thing she just took for me and putting my property on her arm it was like seven other women in there they got comfortable with me pretty quick and we started talking and holding sale and not even an hour I saw my first drug because none of the women in that cell with me got searched not one and I do know that those same drugs made it all the way to the unit but I'm going to say that's a f I guess as far as the topic of of officers uh in in general Heather I'll start from your perspective I I feel like I would be doing a disservice to y'all if I was not absolutely honest with you there are things that I just need you to hear about your staff I got a taste of it my my first night there a couple hours in we had a what I would classify as a major incident and what it was was a use of force with with spray but also a staff assault the entire incident was preventable because it stemmed from the officer accidentally letting out a lockdown and then not handling it properly in any way shape or form and it escalating from there and what was probably the most disheartening is the inmate dictated when that incident was over not a single staff member the women who work in your facilities there were absolutely no boundaries I'm looking at how they deal with the CEOs like at that desk those inmates go behind at this they do anything that they want around in this they lean on the desk the CEOs on the internet they're on Facebook the inmates know the code they pop the doors they know yeah they know it's like they they damn near was working that unit like and it was just I mean that's just my major thing it was absolutely no balance it's frustrating I'm sitting here right now pissed off I'll be on the street you just can't make progress it seems fast enough it's like hurry up wait hurry up and wait I know we've made some positive change but but I still know we've got a long way to go I mean I know this uh and I'll be honest too I don't know all the answers but you know this is helpful and in our first group of participants that we talked to you know along the way we terminated four officers one of the issues and I and I just think that it's it's an elephant in a room kind of thing it's hard to find the right job applicants in the condition we in now who the hell wants to go to work there so we have to make our facility not only better to be safer for everyone but to attract the right applicants right to give them something to want to be a part of part of my reason uh coming back to was uh I wanted to push every Co in every every opportunity that was given to me I wanted to explore that I want to take full opportunity of it I see I've seen a difference let's talk about Jamaica so him and I had words I pushed them and pushed them and pushed them but the way he handled the situation you know he backed off he was like all right listen reels you need to relax and you know going about your business with jamichael um he actually did like a 360 in my eyes like he ended up he did he did a good job in my opinion I'm impressed by that so we've went over a lot of information and so the next topic here is drugs weapons and Contraband Donovan what was your experience in the mail unit had a chance or opportunity to have a cocaine myth or the Clone they call it spices synthetic marijuana which seemed to be more popular than anything right now the spice but the good news is the the jail the inmates are kind of mad that you Sheriff because uh the fact they said six to eight months ago there was no stop and get anything in that jail but it was so rampant then a lot of guys came to jail because they knew for a fact that they'd come to jail and get drugs in jail uh so fast forward now to our time in and it's probably drop 60 percent Vanessa well me and Tony passed a lot of notes to the visitation door between units that door is a major security breach yes definitely get that welded it's like a maybe what like a three inch big gap yeah like a gap you just slide whatever through I could have got some clone I could have got anything and just slid it over there and did whatever whatever needed to be done you know we had a Shakedown this past Friday the aggression and the hostility and the results of that Shakedown had put some pressure on the program and we felt safety first and that's why we pulled you out as early in the way that we did so did you hear any talk did they know a Shakedown was coming or was there any sense of that yes sir or was it a uh really absolutely yeah we were all told Shakedown was coming yeah to prep for it you know there's only a few people that knew about it so it tells us an officer is leaking that but it comes back to training officers you know getting them ready for what to expect coming in the facility it's a big thing we had no information on no it was total surprise I mean obviously from the reactions of the inmates beating doors banging doors they're a little upset about it too I was completely uh blindsided uh in the sale I had clone I had pills I had Shanks and yours in myself I'm like yo they're about to find all this stuff and they didn't find it I end up getting uh some clones so is that what you got there yeah I got like five six pills and some clone all right yes sir this was all just just over the time yes sir and uh that's not it uh so uh it's pretty much the side of a uh eyeglass eyeglasses and they just uh sharpen the edge on the steel door and pretty much made a shank um in the right person's hands this could be like extremely dangerous you know damn like I told you first I said hey look don't tell me to do something because I'm gonna make sure I do it and and the fact that you brought me back and you telling me the same thing you know you can look at the bigger picture I mean you sitting here listening at us tear at you and yeah and you're thinking about how you can grow from it you know I feel like Etowah County is that much more safe because you're in office to be honest thank you Tony obviously we wouldn't know you know what we know without you and uh I know this is something that's going to be challenging it's something that's going to take some time but at the same time at the very end it's going to be extremely enriching and rewarding and you guys have given me uh the energy and the initiative to to want to follow through with that and for that I can never tell you I appreciate it enough thank you thank you thank you [Music] the program phase one and two I feel 100 that he made our jail and My Success 10 years ahead of the curve before we would have been without it we had some bad it had some good everything does [Music] but the total takeaway is that our facility is safer today because of 60 days in bringing in cameras letting the outside world get a unadulterated look of the inside it was tough but in the end letting the people see just as I seen is when I took this position this is what it is you know it could be disappointing it was for me but I think it's the right thing to do [Music] I know that after all that the Jail's heading in the right direction then on the right path [Music] I was afraid of somebody in there that's not why I left did you tap out I tapped out okay I was right next question please to people saying that I was like in a dangerous situation or anything because nothing happened to me I didn't get it fix it I always say knowledge isn't power knowledge is liability I wanted to beat the brakes off of you because she's fully but don't take I don't to think that you would even approach me to fight is hilarious to me you have issues you need to get straight before you come to try to do this wow you basically said at one point you would beat up Chief Peak at that moment yeah this is not just a TV show this is real life site let's talk I'm tired of people saying that I was like in a dangerous situation or anything because nothing happens you smoke some clone but you didn't try to go buy it because you probably would have got your ass whipped that's just the truth tell us about the moment you were left naked in yourself I'm about to be 30 years old single-handedly most humiliating moment in my life I wanted to beat the brakes off of you because she's fully don't talk about me behind my back because I don't do fake I don't to think that you would even approach me to fight is hilarious to me I'm actually quite surprised that she would even feel like she would win it's not a feeling it's no I didn't even know you typed out I was shocked I've never felt at anything in my life until this this season is way more wilder than any other season it's a rough place man it's a really jail no fence but that's what it is what all of you did not know is that after you left is Sheriff Horton decided to put a new group of participants into the jail for a second phase of the program this is what reunions are for oh [Music] welcome to 60 days in the aftermath I'm Dan Abrams we just wrapped up season six of 60 days in or another round of undercover participants fought to survive in what may have been the toughest jail we've seen in six seasons tonight we'll talk to all the participants who went undercover to investigate the Etowah County Detention Center and hear why this facility was so difficult and led to more tap outs than any other season but before we get to that let's meet our panel I'd like to welcome Sheriff Jonathan Horton and Chief Keith peek from the Etowah County Detention Center gentlemen good to have you here good to be here and good to have all of our participants Alex Shanice Tony Ashley Dennis and Jennifer the women and the men have not met each other before but something that's maybe even a little more striking Dennis and Alex are you surprised to see Tony here I'm not surprised at all you're not nah you knew I knew from the jump that Tony had been put in there as a plant yeah I figured that out from the jump did you know I only knew because Dennis was like yo on the low yeah they got another dude [Laughter] acts away you know of his surroundings and uh for the women how is it all to be back together it's bringing back memories it's bringing back a lot of memories and um you know just excited to be here and relive what happened there's no surprise lady gonna walk out no no all right so this reunion is being taped before the premiere of season six and so none of you have seen any of the episodes so far are you nervous not at all I'm just ready to see what's going on I want to see how how everything plays out yeah I'm excited about it I don't want to watch it but I'm gonna so I don't want to watch it either Denise do you want to watch it I don't want to relive this at all I probably wanna I I don't want to see it no matter what I love you too okay for real we went through a really tough place together well here are some highlights from your time in the Etowah County Detention Center I'll see you on the other side I'm giving up all control checking was very slack I totally could have stuck something on my butt if I wanted to gotta go in it had to look like don't with me it's been pure from the moment I walked in through the door Etowah County Jail is a party anything that's out in the street is in the gym calm heroin ice the whole night is just free for all these weapons it is not safe you kill me I kill you bro I never really seen a guy get like stabbed that close to me people can die in a matter of seconds [Applause] if Alex was in any type of danger I would have got for me I'd rather get beat up than have Dennis be my savior there are so many demonic presences in this place that place is insane the worst thing I've ever experienced in my life dumbest decision of it if you want to tap out take your right hand and put it upon your chest I underestimated the reality of it [Music] bye-bye hi guys I was so exciting oh brought back some good memories no no is it tougher than it looks on TV this season is way more wilder than any other season because every other season out the water for sure yeah 100 how is it different than what you had expected based on watching it on TV I think for me I anticipated that I was going to have issues with the inmates not the correctional officers there were times that the inmates gathered together and fed me because I can't eat certain things and so I wasn't expecting the inmates to really have my back and for me to miss them when I left I told my father I was like yeah I miss him he's like you don't miss no inmates they're they're criminals and I'm like no they're real people they just made mistakes was this harder than you expected yes like everybody said it was not the inmates that bothered me I love the inmates I pray for them all the time it was heartbreaking to see what these inmates had to deal with and I felt completely helpless because there was was nothing that I could do all right so Dennis let's talk about your story uh tell us why do you want to do this a few reasons um I think I had a perception about people in jail and I have only had that perception from the outside looking in so I wanted to see what it'd be like see if it changed my perception from being on the inside so was this former college quarterback too confident for his own good let's take a look at Dennis's Journey kind of party you're going to go into place with a bunch of rednecks that attitude right there they're gonna eat you alive she that's not a tough person that's a weak person that's a soft person that's the person I beat up you know if if I'm allowed to if I can fight them I woke up ate breakfast and I'm getting into it I don't want to be a not on the log just sitting there looking around so I just got right to it [Music] bro my workout routine is basically like a thousand reps I call this back a day maybe 150 Pull-Ups two to three hundred push-ups apps apps I'm a six foot three tall handsome black guy look good everybody who is it dude I play quarterback my whole life and I just feel like I'm a quarterback in here too as well so people do look up to me they consider me a pop-off Dennis claims that he has reached pod boss status do you see that no not at all no what a hater look at that Dennis is definitely not a five boss no why because you work out she just didn't know what he do for a living I guarantee he probably sit behind somebody's desk somewhere work from home or something sell insurance or something he's an interesting character we talk a lot but odd boss [Laughter] Tony mad cause I ain't giving him a soup and throw that you know what I'm saying you know that's what was it like watching it was actually pretty cool watching it uh pretty accurate you think you were too cocky no that's just me you know and I won't change myself for nobody so Tony we heard uh what you thought about Dennis you stand by what you said there yeah he was not a pod boss Dennis what I mean I consider myself a pie boss not in a sense where I'm threatening somebody or beating somebody up that's that's not the case but more so I can walk anywhere in the jail it's real cool lack of respect respecting yeah you want to tell Tony what you actually do for a living uh so sir I did get into that a little bit but I'm Dan Abrams here with Sheriff Horton and chief Peak from the Etowah County Detention Center along with the season six participants so there was one moment in Dennis's time in jail that nearly got him kicked out of the program let's watch he's got 12 people to Apollo my roommate he was telling me about unit six which is sap it's a drug program a lot of people want to get there because it's Freedom down there my oh I just see Dennis leaving the pod I have absolutely no idea of what was going on why don't you move to a different pot yeah I'm such a a good guy let's make something real clear we're expecting you to help us out understood understood talk to me like a man and everything's good I've been doing what I can to do to throw everybody off this ain't some school yard some college or some football field this is real life doing all this stupid that you're doing I don't need that or is your voice up oh you're in my building don't turn around anything on me because I promise you I will walk you out the door right now and this will be old when done go in there do what you're supposed to do and do your job simple as that [Music] you don't have to grip your hand hard trust me no sir look we can cut the camera off and we can have a real Hawk at the end of the day I do this for a living don't try me Chief Peak from the junk you don't like me he's threatened by me intimidated by me because he thought when I was going to come in he thought I was going to look at me and you know pounce on me but that ain't the case this whole situation right here like I can't I can't deal with that you're not gonna talk to me like that not you ain't gonna talk to me like that we got a problem we got a real problem so I like to watch that no that was that was pretty intense I didn't I didn't appreciate that part to be honest with you you know from the jump I think Pete just had an issue with me she peaked did you have it out for him in the beginning well you know when he was in there he was all about him in the beginning he was he was all about him as a one-man show after that talk right there Dennis did 180 degree turnaround and he started doing what he was chose to go in there to do do you now looking at that understand a little better why Chief Peak was irritated yeah yeah for sure I do understand because there's no cameras there so they can't get to me if anything was to happen but I didn't know that so Chief Peak had the right to be upset no he had the right to be upset but he didn't have the right to talk to me how you talk to me screaming and stuff like that no do you think he was screaming at you yeah at one point he raised his his tone it I think I got my point across you you basically said at one point that you know you would beat up Chief Peak if you could at that moment yeah do you still feel that way no not anymore you know after meeting with him like debriefing and everything he changed a lot like in terms of just his personality towards me but I don't feel that way now based on what all of you have just seen of Dennis what do you make of this dispute I thought it was a stupid decision for him to go to go to pod six I I I don't I don't know why he did that like there were people talking about you for doing that so I was more worried that like your cover was going to be blown because they were like why would he go and be back six hours later in the same pod so why did you leave the unit it happened fast man um it just looked like you were asking to leave no no I knew it was a lot of drugs I when I hear about like six um literally it was that's where all the drugs is at from six so Dennis in the end do you now maybe better understand where Chief Peak was coming from yes but this is a new environment for me I've never been in a place like that before right so that was my way in to work out and go around and talk to people and by me doing that I was able to do the things that I was able to do towards the end so I do understand that I think that you know he wanted me to do it day one right but it got done all right Ashley you were a 60 days in Super Fan yes why did you want to be a participant on the show in case you don't know this I'm a police officer so this was my opportunity to become a better detective to find out how I can use my position as an officer to kind of you know make my community a safer and better place now for someone who at the outset vowed not to shed a tear [Laughter] it seems like this impacted you more than you expected I was so disappointed in the behavior of these Corrections Officers and it broke my heart to pieces and I was so angry and for me when I'm angry and I can't like hit something I'm just gonna cry so going in Ashley was most concerned about keeping her identity as a police officer a secret but did she make mistakes that contributed to her cover being blown let's take a look oh no I don't want to go with me wow what is she doing Miss Williams decided that she would not allow us to sleep serious she literally did that she's banging and banging on the walls all right just taunting us as a group [Applause] I was hoping for clean clothes but apparently we're supposed to set our laundry bags out at night so I stripped down to put my clothes outside and I had no underwear and there and I'm naked and I'm like are you gonna bring me extra clothes said she was going to I really have I really have nothing on me but I was still like very much exposed Miss Williams please you said you would come back I have never seen a cop or a corrections officer violates somebody like we were violated I've been a police officer for six years and I have never witnessed official oppression and now I don't know how I'm gonna be able to move forward and do my job you feel like they know that you're a cop I feel like it's been it has been discussed and I've been called the police multiple times so the way I look at that we're in an unsafe place all right so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna pull you out today actually how does it feel to to relive that Ashley how does it feel to to relive that I knew it was going to be tough watching all that again um because I really I cared so much let's take a step back tell us about the moment you were left naked in your cell about to be 30 years old single-handedly most humiliating moment of my life it wasn't until next morning when Mr got there and I was like she's like what are you wearing and I'm like can I please have some clothes please can I please have some clothes sheriff and chief how do you feel when you're here very very disheartened and I just hate it because you know this patch I have on my arm it represents all 179 people that work for me whether they do good or they do bad and uh so I take it personally I take it to heart and it's very disheartening I don't know any words I could say but I hate that you had to experience that thank you and I hate you had the experience too I'm glad you brought it to our attention so it could get fixed to stop that from happening to somebody else now have you returned to the police force yes and uh how has this experience changed you as an officer um my experience at Etowah County I got to meet and talk to and become friends with people during their sobriety and then while in jail see them get access to drugs and see them descend back into throes of addiction so getting to know that there are beautiful people underneath the weight of their addiction makes me a lot more empathetic when I'm dealing with somebody instead of just being oh here he is he's high again I care a little bit more that's great Alex let's move on to your story you went from living with your parents to living in jail right big change a little bit yeah um what did your parents say when you said to them hey I'm gonna go to jail they were like well I think that's I think that's the wrong decision I don't understand why you would even want to do that what did you want to prove to your parents by doing this just that I didn't have to call them to bail me out of everything because I'm I'm the first to admit that I grew up pretty privileged and uh never had to ask for anything and relied on my parents for too much so this was a good opportunity for me to do something independent so did Alex prove his independence from his parents let's take a look oh boy I'm sorry I sat down to play Uno the dentist a group of people going out I put my hand out and he just looked at me and wouldn't shake my hand when someone like disrespects me like that it just makes me not like them [Laughter] this way cutting a line pisses me off it's such a blatant sign of disrespect that's why you're in jail because you didn't learn basic respect like that on the streets bless your heart oh honey you're ruining me your parents was right I've been four or five spots back up in line I've seen Dennis come right in front of everybody including me is definitely disrespecting me when he when he does that once an a-hole always an a-hole [Music] this place is really like it's getting to me super hard
