but criminals do exist here. and the most hardcore can be found 50 miles east of brussels in the town of hasalt. prison hasselt was built in 1975. it houses men and in a separate unit women. >> other prisons in this country they are old prisons, they are more than 150 years old, and they have a culture. a bad or a good culture. but they always have a culture. we started from zero. >> as the nation's newest high-security prison, hasselt employs a wide array of technology to manage inmates. but many of the other security policies are nothing at all like we've ever seen in the u.s. from 9:00 at night until 6:30 in the morning correctional officers are not allowed to go inside cells without special permission from the prison director. >> at 9:00 the prisoners are locked in their cells. the big chief comes to collect the keys.

you can't go in a cell. >> you cannot? >> yes. >> why? >> that's the rules here. >> what do you think goes on behind these doors? >> i don't know. and i don't want to know what goes on. but when you go around, make your checks, you can sometimes smell the weed. the only thing you can do is the day after get a complete checkup of the cell. but most of the time you don't find anything. >> but that's not the only unusual security policy. while american correctional officers who have close contact with inmates don't carry guns, hasselt officers carry even less. >> none of the staff has any weapons? there are no pepper spray, no batons? >> the only equipment we carry are our keys and a cell phone. that's about it. but if necessary we can get plastic shields, batons. the restraints, the chains, protective armaments. i don't even think i ever wore a

helmet. >> male inmates considered to be the greatest threat are segregated in their own unit. section 20. >> when they are psychotic, when they use a lot of drugs, when they are aggressive, when they're risk for escaping, then they come at section 20. >> borak ursin is a section 20 inmate awaiting trial for attempted murder of a wheelchair-bound man. >> they say that i put a man through a window. like this, like you see. but this is -- >> in a wheelchair? >> in a wheelchair, yes. >> unlike most high-security units in american prisons, where inmates are locked in cells 23 hours a day, borak and other section 20 inmates are given access to common areas. but less than 24 hours after our arrival a fight breaks out between two inmates.

surveillance footage would later reveal that borak ursin, shown speaking on a pay phone, was one of the participants. he is suddenly approached by another inmate, who has just picked up supplies and food from the prison canteen. and just seconds later they take each other to the ground. correctional officers swarm the two men and take borak into custody while the other inmate picks up his supplies and leaves the scene. borak will be confined to this stripped-down isolation cell until he attends a disciplinary hearing for the fight. >> we went to interview borak in his isolation cell a few minutes after this fight. he was very upset. he felt he was being treated as the perpetrator when in fact he was actually the victim. >> i was taulg with my mother. i said mom, everything okay?

ta, ta, tt. he said to me i want to talk to you. i said what do you want? he say what do you want? i will kick you, beat you. >> barok's opponent is a violent repeat offender who is currently awaiting trial for manslaughter. he says barok started the fight. >> he jumped you and what happened? >> jump -- it was over -- it was not a real fight. >> unlike barok, eric was sent back to his regular cell and not placed under any new restrictions. borak claims eric receives special treatment from the prison. >> eric is in fact a former

paratrooper. but borak says he got the better of him in the fight. >> first he got me, but i turned him around, you know, and i got him good, you know. but the sheriffs, they all catched me and they pulled me off of. you know? they don't touch him with one finger. him. why? you fight with two, huh? you don't fight alone. you know what i mean? >> do you have a lot of influence? >> yeah. >> next on "lockup: world tour." >> two hours for sex. >> inside hasselt prison sex room. and borak ursin's disciplinary hearing goes from bad to worse.

the security system at prison hasselt in belgium is as technologically advanced as any of the american prisons we've ever profiled on "lockup." >> everywhere are cameras and monitors. from a very secure place where no prisoners may go we watch everything. that's our security. for the moment we have no escapes in this prison. but the inmates, probably they think a lot about escaping. but the security is very high. >> preventing escape is a high priority at hasselt. that's why peter denilizak was transferred here two weeks ago. he was sentenced to five years for the armed robbery of three jewelry couriers and then boldly tried to cut that sentence short. >> i notice when you walk you have a limp. why? >> it was an accident when i escaped.

there was a construction going on in the prison. it was a -- they had this ladder. and we run and jump over the fence. so i actually made it out. i run. and they catch me. five, six kilometers in a little village called warneton. and from there they move me to this prison. >> he says his escape was motivated by the pressures of being the parent of four young children. >> before they were going in the soccer team. now they cannot go because of there is no one to take them there and there are some complications with little children, you know? >> in the united states an escape attempt usually leads to more time in prison. but it's a very different story in belgium. >> it's the law that says the fact of escaping is not a crime, but they can do another crime. for example, if they escape with the prison clothes, keeping those prison clothes is a crime.

unless they send the clothes back. and in the past we have someone who escaped jumping out of the window. after two, three days, we get the clothes back, washed and cleaned. so he didn't make any crime. >> in accordance with belgian law, since peter committed no crimes during his escape, he received no extra prison time once he was captured. >> nice surprise. happy surprise. i don't like surprises, but it's a nice surprise. >> peter's only punishment was a two-month stay in hasselt's high security unit, section 20. but it's all worked out for the best. he likes it here. >> it's a five-star hotel compared to the other ones. food, here they give same way that they give in any belgian restaurant. any belgian traditional restaurant, what they give, they give also here. same taste, same everything.

>> yeah, i guess when you escape they put you in a better place. >> don't try to run again? >> while peter might take comfort in a good maeshleal, ph vervaki finds it in the daily mail call. >> it's a letter from my girlfriend. it's nice to have all day, every day a letter. you know? these are from june 2008 till now. you know. this one is the last one. you know? 671. and this is from the day before. 670. we never have a day we didn't write. never. never. >> but when phillip mails his letters, they never travel outside the prison's walls. his girlfriend, connie ohunelt is also serving time at hasselt. >> my love is big for my partner. 14 years together.

>> while the hundreds of letters to each other symbolize their love, ironically, it was a bonnie and clyde-like robbery spree of belgian post offices that brought them here. >> we are so close that we going together in hell, you know. we give our life for each other. >> since belgian post offices also offer banking services, they were the couple's prime target. >> i told her many times, i say connie, you know, we have to be careful, it's bad luck to be caught. you know? and she say yeah, we have to stop. and then i say yes. and after i say no, we need the money. >> on their ninth robbery they were not only caught, phillip accidentally shot himself in the leg trying to escape. but the pain was more than just physical. >> i failed to my promise to her, you know? to give her a better life.

>> fortunately, for connie and phillip, they're inkars raicarcn a nation that understands the power of love. the couple is at loud to see each other for an hour three times a week. but once a month they're allowed a special visit. >> two hours for sex. that is different. nobody look. that's fine. >> in belgium they just cut to the chase. they call this room the sex room. and it was a very surprisingly lovely-looking room. very large bathroom, very nice lighting in the bedroom. large size bed. big size bed. very neatly folded towels on the bed. and a little shocking. packets of condoms on the towel. >> the prisoners have to write to have private visit. but it's not only a sexual visit. a prisoner can ask his father or his mother or his sister.

but mostly it is used as a sex room. >> so what's going on now, phillip? what are you preparing for? >> to visit my wife. you know? it's very nice. >> and the banana? >> to get power. >> are you happy? >> happy, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> the things human need, you know? and if you love someone, you need your sex with her. you need to be alone for two hours. you know? >> coming up -- >> why would i want to fight with a paracommander? ex-paracommander? they are scared. believe me.

inside belgium's prison hasselt inmate borak ersen has just spent his second night in an isolation cell. he's there for getting into a fight with another inmate. >> i'm the black sheep. always. if there's anything, it's always me. >> this morning he will meet the prison's disciplinary committee to find out if there will be any further punishment. the inmate borak fought, eric franzens, will also go before the disciplinary committee. but he seems no more concerned now than he was when he casually walked away from the fight as officers swarmed borak. >> what do you think's going to happen? >> i don't know. >> are you worried? >> huh? >> are you worried? >> no. >> no?

>> prison officials claim that eric franzens is a well-behaved inmate and that it's only his violent reputation outside of prison that requires them to house him in section 40. >> with the police he has a very heavy reputation, that he's a very heavy guy in the criminal environment. it is a reputation that follows him. and he has a lot of crimes. and it's often with guns. >> i'm 39 years old. i was before ten years in jail for armed robberies. and then i got free and i come back for two years for a fight. and now i'm in jail. they think that i killed somebody. >> under what circumstances did this person die? >> bullet in his head.

erik. >> a short time later borak is escorted to the hearing room. and his outlook is less than hopeful. >> how's it going? >> they want to [ bleep ] me. always like this. >> when erik gave his account of the incident, he was very calm and very respectful in the disciplinary board. when borak came in to give his account, it was a very different story. he claimed erik was blackmailing him and became very aggressive with the director.

>> we know borak for many years. we think he takes a lot of drugs. and these drugs has changed his

personality. and he became more and more aggressive the last few months, last few years. >> what happens now, burak? >> i don't know. they will give me penalty, i think. a good one. but i don't give a [ bleep ]. [ bleep ] them. they think they're going to break me. [ bleep ]. >> a short time later the disciplinary committee reaches a decision. there will be no sanctions for erik franzens, but burak ersen will receive two additional days in isolation for being argumentative in the hearing and another month in section 20 for the fight. we caught up with burak three days later, after he was moved out of isolation and back into his section 20 cell. he was in a much better mood. >> here. that's chocolate. you know, you want? this is good.

most life sentences are given for murder. so we have a lot of murderers here. >> many of the men convicted of murder here are young, still in their 20s, and claim drugs and alcohol led them to kill. drugs played a role in the incarceration of 29-year-old chris hutchison. but he was on the supply side, and his crimes made headlines. >> so you were a drug dealer? >> a wee time drug dealer, aye. did a wee bit. yeah. >> but hutchison was a drug dealer with a sadistic streak. he's serving a 25-year to life sentence for two murders, attempted murder, kidnapping, and torture. >> how did those people die? >> one fell off a bridge. another one died. >> one fell off a bridge? wouldn't that be an accident, not murder? >> aye. >> what happened? >> fell off a bridge. >> were you there when he fell off the bridge? >> aye. >> how'd the other one die?

ahead? >> i am. >> nurse o'neill checked the medication and found he was three tablets short. i placed him on report. is that correct? >> well, i would say two. >> you would say two. >> aye. >> okay. but the nurse is saying three. based on what she's said. how do you plead this morning? are you pleading guilty or not guilty? >> guilty. >> you're guilty. okay. the second report, then, mr. reid, for this report do you want any materials for taking notes? >> no. >> you swore at an officer and threatened to set fire to your cell. is that charge correct? >> aye. >> it is. and how do you plead? >> guilty. >> guilty or not guilty? >> guilty. >> okay. when being served with a report, james reid became abusive to me. this is officer stuart milton, telling me to get the [ bleep ] off. he then threatened to set fire to his cell. i placed him on report. >> i tried to explain to him, log me off if you want. if you lock me in i'll burn my peter. >> burn your peter? >> yeah. >> that's the reason why you've been put on report?

>> aye. >> okay. your third report, you've been charged with disobeying a lawful order, and this was continually placing your buzzer through the patrol period. when they responded to the buzzer and asked what was wrong he was met way response of [ bleep ] off. how do you plead? >> guilty. >> guilty. i'll find you guilty on that one. two more to go. right. okay. the fourth charge, then, is disobeying again, a rule where you've been continually pressing your cell button again for no reason. >> guilty. >> guilty. the last report of the evening was where you've intentionally endangered the health and personal safety of others. and this is where you activated the smoke detector in your cell, thereby causing the fire alarm to activate requiring the prison staff and the fire service to attend. do you understand that this charge? >> yes. >> and how do you plead? >> guilty. >> guilty. so you've pled guilty. i'm going to find you guilty on that basis.

all right, mr. reid, we're finished with the reports to this evening. thank you. >> jimmy's otherwise good behavior record over the past year helps him catch a break. he receives seven days loss of recreation time. his prison job wages and access to his cash account to buy supplies and snacks from the canteen. >> you're okay with it? >> for five reports, yes, i'm okay. >> jimmy is escorted back to his cell in d hall. the prison's protective custody wing. >> jimmy's done a lot of time in the jail. he's not a young chap anymore. jimmy has enemies in different establishments. and the mainstream halls. so that's why he's kept separate. >> i'm just getting medication off a doctor and a prisoner tried to take them off me and he sent another prisoner to my cell. i told the guy to [ bleep ] off. do me or i'll do you. i said, you're 30 years younger than me, but i will [ bleep ] murder you.

so either [ bleep ] off or shut the door. he [ bleep ] off. if they want to fight with me they'll fight with my rules. knife. then he -- then he won't fight. because he knows, he may not win. >> jimmy might convey a tough persona inside shotts. but he has serious concerns about what awaits him on the outside when he finally leaves. >> i killed a man who i knew well. which had two big sons. who are about 30 years of age, that region. who will cause me a problem when i get out. i understand that. i killed their father. so there's a problem. they may come looking for me. if anybody killed my father, i'd

[ bleep ] look for them. so i'm expecting that. do i walk away from it? or do i head back? my hands are tied. if i head back, i'm back in prison. but can i let these guys hurt me? they may not just hurt me. they may knife me. i knifed their father. it's a problem i've got ahead of me. i may move out of town. >> you think you're going to drink? >> why not? >> seems to cause you problems. >> i've been doing it for 40 years. every time i'm out. can i see myself stopping it? no. you want the truth, you're getting it. no. no.
