(suspenseful music) - Yeah, that kinda ticked me off because I've been through a lot. Jennifer is just being a butt hole. She's wearing on me. - Tony's been in for about two weeks now. He came in there like he's been there before. - Tony's definitely tryin' to get a shank. I'm tryin', I am gonna get, so. Anything that Tony can do, I think I can do better. (Tony laughs) - Why, 'cause you work out? - Shanese comes over to me and says, "I gave Angel some of my urine for a drug test." I am not onboard with that. Shanese doesn't know I'm a cop. I'm extremely furious. Shanese, I want you gone. - [Tony] We walked in the bathroom and he showed me his shank. He said he could make me a good one. (suspenseful music) (men shouting) - They was goin' back and forth, back and forth. - [Dennis] I look over and I seen it in his hand. - [Dennis] It's a shank. - Oh (beep) somethin' about to go down. (suspenseful music) (blues music) You do it then! You do it then, you do it! You do it, you do it! (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) (men whooping) (men shouting) (men shouting) - [Officer] What? Hurry up. - If I was a CO there, that stabbin' could've been prevented 110%. Okay, let's say the officer did not know that Versace had a shank. You seen clearly that Willie had a broom so now, loud verbal commands, put the broom down, put your hands behind your back. If he failed to comply, you spray him. But before you even act, you should've been on the radio callin' back up for his safety and everyone else's safety. Versace stabbed him a couple times, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, and to me, it looked like he walks through the shower, flushed the shank in the toilet. - Next thing you know, you see Versace upstairs. The CO let him back in the cell, blood on him and everything. I'm like, this man just damn near killed somebody, what the hell? - And as far as I could see from my cell, when I went in, he was never handcuffed. - Eventually they end up comin' to get 'em. You see 'em all walkin' down the stairs with all this stuff. - Versace did get removed from the pod. He's probably goin' to the hole. (suspenseful music) - Seein' a guy get stabbed two feet from my face, it was a humbling experience. Very humbling, very humbling because that could've been me. This is not a show. This is not something, like, you know, you wanna sign up for to be, you know, to be on TV for or anything like that. This is real life and somebody coulda lost their life for real. (suspenseful music) (women chattering) (suspenseful music) The main things that I'm strugglin' with in here, of course with the food. I have had diarrhea for four days. I've had a nonstop headache. My feet are swollen. And it pisses me off that Jennifer does not understand my condition. Shanese is an emotional wreck. She's not making eye contact with me and nor is she speaking to me. - When I came in 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 piss-tivity that I'm at now, I black out and I can't control what I say. I think it was (beep) what she did and where I'm at right now is I don't wanna get to a point where Jennifer pisses me off and I say somethin' or do somethin' that reveal that she's part of 60 Days In. - I'm definitely afraid that I could do that because I'm on edge right now. (suspenseful music) - I don't really care what Shanese does because I'm in here to do a job and I'm gonna do it whether I'm liked or not. - For Shanese to keep going on and on about I'm done I wanna go home. That only looks really stupid and really suspicious. Like, 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. - [Ashley] I want Shanese to go home as soon as possible, please. (suspenseful music) (men chattering) - Hey, we didn't have (beep) to do with that man. I gotta talk to my kids. (suspenseful music) - [Tony] So, after the whole stabbing, the CO says hey go back in your cell. They locked us down. (suspenseful music) (men chattering) (suspenseful music) - SAW team comes in and they're searchin' cells. Lookin' for the shank. (suspenseful music) You know, I'm nervous as crap because I have a shank. If the SAW team come in and search the cell, find the shank, I'm gonna be screwed. They'll send me to the hole and then I'll have to, you know, possibly blow my cover. (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) (women chattering) - Shanese is putting me and Jennifer in a very risky, dangerous situation. 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. 909! So 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. (women chattering) - Even though I don't fully trust really anybody, I trust Ashley more than I do Jennifer. - I do not wanna discuss with Shanese any of these feelings I 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. - [Shanese] I can't. - 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 and I don't approve of that. - She's not. - [Officer] Get ready! - 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. (suspenseful music) I don't have time to sit here and complain. I want Shanese to go home as soon as possible. (dramatic music) Shanese told me to my face that she was going to blow all of our covers if she did not get to leave. (dramatic music) So I said, maybe you should give the signal again. (dramatic music) (suspenseful music) - Oh thanks. (suspenseful music) (sighs) - Ready to go home, that's how I'm doin'. You know, I've been thinkin' 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. - 'Cause I have some, how do I say this? I have some issues with another participant and um, that's doin' this with me. - Jen. When I came into this, I came into it like we're family and if I hear somethin', I'm gonna let you know to try to protect everybody. Where I'm at right now is I'm protecting me, myself, and I. - We were talkin' about, she's like, you know, how are you doin'? And I was like, you know. - I mean... (suspenseful music) - And so it was just kinda 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 then so I was like lemme, before my attitude gets too bad and I jack up everything for everybody, I'd rather just bow our gracefully. - [Producer] It's not worth it. - It's not worth it. Mmm-mmm, I'm done. (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) - That's good. - How are you? Doin' all right? I'm here. - Hey, I wanna do one! - Yeah. (suspenseful music) - Yeah, but I already got rid of it. - The shank? - [Producer] Yeah. - Yeah, I got rid of it, I flushed it. - Yeah I flushed it because the SAW team kept comin' and I didn't wanna get caught with it and then they say, hey, you gotta a shank and then get possibly moved somewhere else or whatever, whatever, so yeah I flushed it. - O'Shay. - Metal, it was serious. It was really serious. (suspenseful music) Yeah, I know for a fact I can get another one. I mean, if he's in there, I can get it. - Okay. - Yeah. - I told you it's gonna be something different, man. I told you, I told you. I'm gonna give you somethin', man. I tell you that from the jump. (suspenseful music) - That's how you feel? - Queen, Jack, 10, nine, gimme my cards. - That's how you feel, okay. That's okay. (suspenseful music) - What? (suspenseful music) - I feel great that Shanese 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, Champ. - Hey, I love you too. Stay the hell outta jail. Don't kill nobody. - Now, listen. Look me up on Facebook. - Okay. - All right, love you. - I did not say goodbye to Shanese. 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 cheeking their pills just so they buy some M&M's. (suspenseful music) (women chattering) And you are blessed with all of this stuff and you're gonna take it home. - Bye! (suspenseful music) - Well done, Shanese, well done. You have made everybody think you're a (beep). (suspenseful music) (tense music) (howling) - I need it for some underwear. - Well, I'm (beep) glad that you got yours. They sent mine back. I'm glad Shanese is gone now. It's time to move on and remain focused on my mission. (metal tapping) Working as a trustee, I'm privileged to see what's going on and there's one girl on lockdown who I desperately want to help. - Ciara is an inmate who's a sweet, genuinely nice, kind, human being. (banging on the cell door) - [Ciara] Open the (beep) up! - Whenever she's sober. Right now, she's flooding her cell and feces and urine are absolutely everywhere. They coated every surface. (metal clanging) -She's jumping up and down on the bed. She was completely nude. Ciara has problems that are made even worse by being locked down in seclusion for days and days and days. (suspenseful music) - Ciara when she act out, instead of them getting her the appropriate care, they put her in her cell by herself. She does not eat, she does not drink, she does not bathe. Nothin' healthy comes out of bein' locked down 23 hours a day. - They'll punish you and put you on lockdown for 45 days 'cause you called them a bitch. That aint right. - I mean, this just like a dog if you keep it behind a fence, I mean, when it finally gets out and get in the yard to run free, it ain't gon' know what to do. - [Inmate] They will break you in here in more ways than one. (suspenseful music) This jail will break you. (suspenseful music) I want to help Sierra because she is a vulnerable human being in a terrible environment. (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) Ever since I got a shank from O'Shay, you know, we just clicked. We really did just, we just clicked. - O'Shay, he's really plugged in with all the drugs. - O'Shay is a junkie. He do smoke crunk everyday, all day. He sells it. I mean, he's inmate. (suspenseful music) - Every jail, every prison you go, there's gonna be dope. There's no stoppin' it. In the streets, you just gotta do what you gotta do. You gotta do what you gotta do to survive. Every chance I get I seize. That's why name means in Persian. Demarja means king and conqueror. I'm not brave. I'm not the mouse in the field. I'm not the tuna swimmin' around and I'll be damned if I be the Bambi finna get eat. I'm a apex predator so there's nothing that's gonna be out here tryin' to eat me. We all have a natural hustler mentality in us. If you don't, you starve off and die. - I was like what the (beep). 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's crazy. So, that's what I'm gonna do I'm work from the inside and make me money. - I done broke the trust circle and honestly I'm like y'all don't even know me. Y'all just pluggin' me in with everything and everyone. I cannot be that convincin'. There's no way. (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) - Me and Jennifer asked the guard if we could help Ciara to take a shower. She's a lost girl. I feel like she's been through a lot of things. - Luckily the guard got on board with it and said yes. (uplifting music) We escorted (beep) downstairs. Got her in the shower. The moment that she got in the shower, she was so happy. She was laughing and joking. - For Ashley and I, literally we started seeing the transformation of this girl which was a great thing because she needs help. - [Inmate] I promise you. - The kindness that we showed her helped that girl. We had finally gotten this girl clean, had shown her love. We get her calmed down but that did not last long. 30 minutes later, we go to bring her the mat to sleep on. (howling and clapping) Ciara is completely gone, she's back to screaming, jumping up and down, yelling, flooding her cell again. It was just that quick, that quick. (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) - Ciara, come on! - [Ciara] Son of a bitch! - [Officer] Come on. (Ciara screaming) (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) - [Inmate] Please! (woman shrieks) (suspenseful music) - [Ashley] Stop! Stop! - [Ciara] Stop,let me go! (suspenseful music) - [Ciara] Enough! - [CO] Come on. - Get off the balcony. So the door opens and Ciara comes running out, gets on her belly, and dives underneath the bars so I dove her and I grabbed her legs and kept her from goin' over the edge. That should've been Ms. Wildman doing that. (suspenseful music) Ms. Wildman did not handle that situation with Ciara 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. (suspenseful music) - I went downstairs and Rael was like, I saw what you did. I know what you are. - I don't know if Rael was referencing to me being an assumed police officer or something different but a normal inmate would never but their hands on another inmate so that was pretty much a red flag that I'm not a normal inmate. (suspenseful music) I drew attention to myself. This is not good. (suspenseful music) - Tony! - Room 48, Tony! Tony Reel, Tony Reel! (suspenseful music) - O'Shay wanna go into business with me. So now, I need to get my commissary so I can, you know, make different deals. - [Tony] I got a big, big bag of commissary so now that's puttin' off to everybody, they think I got money now. - So now everybody like, oh, look bruh, you got money, you can give me $100 or $50 and I can go get some drugs. That's how I plan on movin' forward. - [CO] Let's go! - [Tony] Have a nice day, you guys. - In this jail, commissary is gold. Because a lotta people don't have money to get anything so if you orderin' a big, huge bag, you can get whatever you want in that jail. - I mean, the commissary, the soups and this and that. That's how I'm gonna get another shank and drugs. (men chattering) Close it, close it, close it. He about to come back in anyway. (suspenseful music) I made a deal with O'Shay for another shank. I gave O'Shay a couple soups, 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 'til I reach my goals. Reach what I set out to do. (suspenseful music) - [Inmate] This about the best thing on the tray, right there, that pie. I got a new cellmate, Zook. Zook has been to jail plenty of times. I guess involved in the drug game outside of the jail. (suspenseful music) We leave out to go to breakfast. And we come back, he got two gloves on it and he's on the toilet. - I don't even play that. Like, don't (beep) in my room. Like, you know what I'm sayin'? Don't do that. - [Dennis] Time to go, bro, come on bro. - Apparently he wasn't (beep), he was pullin' out drugs out his ass. (suspenseful music) Oh, so they really do stuff (beep) up their ass. (suspenseful music) (Tony laughs) (suspenseful music) (suspenseful music) Man. - [Producer] Where are you with the shank? - I actually have the shank. - [Producer] You have it right now? - Yeah. I have a shank. It's not as good as the one I had originally but yeah I have one now. - [Producer] Wanna show us? - Yeah. So I 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 actual sharp point on it so this is the one that he gave me. So, he put a point. He started, he told me I could put a point here. He told me a guy downstairs on the lower tier who could put a point in the rec yard here and here. This is extremely dangerous. Not only dangerous for the inmates, for the staff. I've been hidin' this on the conduit, on the cameras in the cell. That's been my hidin' 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 goin' up to someone, hey, I got money. Oh, what you need? A shank, okay, come on. It's that simple. - I wanna give it to you guys. And ultimately get to the sheriff or the chief. - [Producer] Well, why don't I take it from you? I'll hold onto 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 Horton. - Okay. (suspenseful music) - Huh? - [Zook] Tired. - Tired? You was up late? Zook, he brought drugs inside. He had ice, so that's meth. Took it out his ass. They call it clenchin'. - There's more drugs in here sometimes than there is on the streets. Suboxone, heroin, coke, MILF, pong, clone, be here all the time. - There gonna be one way or another we gonna get drugs in here, no matter what. - Put it under your ballsack. Put it in between your butt crack. Put it your jail pocket. - Some (beep) are so savage. I mean, they goin' in people's ass to get 'em, like, no gloves, no nothin'. - They gonna beat you up and hold you down and they're gonna take it. (door taps) - [Zook] I'm there, I'm gonna come out in a minute. I'll holler at you. I'm gonna holler at you when I come out. - Eh! He'll holler at you when he come out. I said he'll holler at you when he come out. All right. Zook goes and tells somebody that he has ice on him, has drugs on him. The wrong thing to do. Next thing you know, word gets out. So now 20 people come knockin' on my door. Hey, hey, Zook. (suspenseful music) And everybody tryin' to get a cut of it. (suspenseful music) Zook! but um... I didn't necessarily tell him he had to go. I just told him, I just don't want this (beep) goin' down in here. I guess he got the picture. Because he left my room and Zook probably was just like nervous or just scared. You know what I'm sayin'? That he done already told me about the ice, he thought I was gonna probably beat him up and take it from him. - Yeah, but I had to do somethin' about it because if they come check the room, they come find my shank. - Yeah. (ominus music) - [Producer] On the surface, that looks like you have an amazing opportunity in executing your mission. - Yeah, but I had to do somethin' about it because if they come check the room, they come find my shank. - Yeah. You wanna see what it look like? (suspenseful music) - [Dennis] 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 nail. Probably about three inches, four inches long. And put it through the cap so it can stay. - So, one of my guys that I know who had it, he end up leavin', he end up gettin' free. He left the banger inside his room with his cellmate and I went in there and told his cellmate, I was like, "Hey such-and-such left the banger for me." And I told him, I was like, "I'll buy it from you." So I gave him, what? Couple soups, honey bun. Some chips and like a couple oatmeal pies and he was good. Like, he was one of the guys that was starvin' so I coulda literally got the banger for nothin' but I just wanted to take care of him so he can keep it on the hush hush. As far as, you know, me havin' 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, you know, move around a little bit. Little bit easier, little bit smoother. And make a real play as far as like with the drugs. I found my flow. I'm makin' moves. Quicker than I thought I would and I'm the man in jail to be honest with you. (suspenseful music) - All right. (women laughing) (suspenseful music) - Yeah. - 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. (Sierra screaming) - [Ashley] Stop! - That was the moment where, all right, she's definitely a cop. And that puts me in a very, very dangerous situation. - Yes. (suspenseful music) Okay. (suspenseful music) - Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. (suspenseful music) - Being identified as a police officer is a very, very scary situation in a jail environment because every person in that jail has had a negative interaction with a police officer. (suspenseful music) - 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. (suspenseful music) - There was already so much suspicion but now they know I'm a cop. (suspenseful music) I'm just tryin' not to get killed. I would like very much not to be the next person stabbed at Etowah County. (suspenseful music) - I wanna understand where the drugs are comin' from. (suspenseful music) This is first time I'm just buyin' drugs. If I get caught, I can land in jail for real. (suspenseful music) - Ciara 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 wanna leave here until I figure out a way to help Ciara. - Today it's time to collect. He's tellin' me like this little sad story and I ain't buyin' it. You know, I'm not (beep) with you. I'm not playin' with you. I really will beat your ass. (suspenseful music) - Essentially our cover's blown at this point. - Do you feel like they know that you're a cop? (suspenseful music) (Ashley sobs) All right? (Ashley sobs) (suspenseful music)
