60 Days In: Tami's EPIC Jail Journey (S1) | A&E

how long do you think you can survive in here   i don't know i don't know my name's tammy  i'm 46 years old and i'm a police officer   you never know what's behind a  door you mentally you have to focus   i'm giving up so many amazing things you know i'm  being away from my family and my wife's gonna miss   me like crazy and my daughter i know my mom is  going away for a lot of weeks i don't like it oh in my cell i have this little tiny window and the  showers and the toilet are freaking disgusting jennifer's here what's going on she's moving up there okay i'm jen well you gotta show me the ropes because  it's my first time in or whatever jennifer   is a new bunk mate of mine i feel  like she's she's gonna be trouble   oh wait i can't take a shower  somebody has my shower shoes on jennifer is strutting around the pod in my shoes okay bob and i are becoming closer and  she's one of just a handful of   girls that i trust in the pod right now  she tells me her story and i'm like ok she wasn't very good at selling  it 21 years of police work   and there were obvious clues  that i figured out who she was i'm really happy that she is  here you know she's somebody who   you feel like you can trust then there's the  minions as i like to call them there's minions and they're all sheep following  this one particular individual   julia the redhead the one they call boston  she thinks that she's the pop boss in there   but i'm a little bit of a leader and i'm not going  to take any crap from anybody and they know that   frankly i don't take from anybody i never  have and uh i'm starting to get real angry now don't get involved with me girl i'm  telling you right now pull your shirt over here i've never had somebody get into my face  and tell me they're gonna beat the living   daylights out of me and just put my hands  up and say i have to walk away from this there's a meeting of six people  up in a room and i'm like   oh crap these they're all gonna gang up on me who says that to somebody if you're my  friend you're gonna be like yeah okay   i helped her and i was the first person that  befriended her which is a really big deal   i feel very alone here very alone my  bunkies didn't speak to me for like a day   we've all given tammany quite a few passes because  she's the first timer she can't lighten that i   don't want to be your friend i'm done i don't  like you normally my wife and my daughter will   bring me right back up that's my lifeline right  now hello good morning peanut how are you today   good it's good it's good to hear your  voice hello can i talk to mommy okay okay   where i get my hugs and my kisses from my girls you know and i don't have that and  i really i really need that right now hi   what's the matter are you okay no nobody's  talking to me it's really hard this   situation right here is really putting me to the  test there's so many women who love barbara i'm   so angry over it right now i know it sounds like  a trivial thing but i have had a really crappy   life growing up a really crappy life i can relate  to so much of what these girls are going through   but they just don't like me about two seconds  i'm gonna kick some people out because i need   to take a shower so are you gonna be pumped  to me now because you got your girl there because you're being punk to me  because you're about to do it tammy is on the verge of falling apart and it can  be very startling and uncomfortable for everybody their [ __ ] hate them all over here i'm stuck buying the cookies the peanut butter  probably like three quarters of the ingredients   just to let you know i paid for it some of the  things that i may say and do seem to really affect   tammy what are you getting i'm not mad it always  sounds like you are no it's you today tammy it's   nobody else you know what why don't we just scrap  the whole thing all right because we can do that oh my gosh this is for sam this is not for  you this is not for me this is not for amy   i mean she leaves for rehab tomorrow i always buy  stuff and i always buy stuff but there's a point i just hate them you feel like you're losing yourself um oh my god oh my god i'm not the same right now you know i  feel like she's come so far in her life i don't   want this to be a gigantic kick back into the past  barbara was getting frustrated with her bunk mates   so she came to me and she apologized when no  one else was around i've still got my guard up   with her because i don't know where she lies in  this whole faction but joel's advice to me is   keep the peace with her so i'm not going to be a  jerk to her trust me if i can do this last night   i had some bug bites on my back and my bunkie  christine and boston are actually pretty good   friends and christine knows that boston she has  a nursing degree and she called her into my room i was like oh god you know this  is a really awkward situation   for me i don't know how to deal with that i needed to step up and do the right thing and i said to her i am genuinely  sorry for whatever i did to make you feel   like you needed to be on the offensive  we ended up hugging it out and now we're fine half the time the ceo doesn't check the tray  so maybe they put it underneath the tray   or they're actually mixing it in with  the food and it gets sent up to the pod   as a law enforcement officer it's probably one  of the most difficult things i've ever had to   see i have a lot to tell the  sheriff when i get out of here guys so i was just trying to calm her down it doesn't matter if she heard it or  not i heard it okay i'm i'm sorry okay   i apologize okay and that's why and then you're  gonna go out there and try to be nice to the girl   what's wrong with his words i was trying to slip  something up into their hair and say that timmy   gets mad at everybody that's not a fair statement  okay tim i okay i can't believe she said that   it is not my place or anybody else's  place to make fun of somebody like that if the things that people were saying to me were  said on the outside it would be a completely   different scenario someday it'll make sense to  you there are stitches in jail tammy is a mole you guys are always in here my friends  never come in here that's not my fault   okay it doesn't matter i'm  asking you politely jennifer because there's always people here i have no  space to move because there's always people   here you can go to other people's rooms you cannot  i don't want to i'm not going to move to anybody how am i running you over all i've known is strong  don't show that you're weak   that is how i survived my entire life i'm  ready to go home i really i miss my family   i don't know how much longer tammy can take she  may completely unravel and blow her whole cover tammy ferguson jack where are you banging baggage when my name was called they're like  okay you know get your bed and baggage   i figured out okay you know it's just time to go and then so many people ran up to me   and they started hugging me and they're  like we love you we're going to miss you i love you i was i was floored bye guys i know it's only been this short period of time   but i literally feel like it's been years  years that i've been sitting in there you
