due to mature subject matter, viewer discretion is advised. it's a housing unit with a reputation. >> it's a party. it's a party. >> it can get pretty wild here in g dorm. >> it's like a big sorority house, but with a bunch of friggin' gay people in jail. >> and g dorm is about to turn one inmate's life upside down.
9:01 pm
>> i'm just scared. i'm scared to death. >> i just want my mom. i feel like i'm a little girl again. life inside the maricopa county jail in phoenix, arizona, is constantly changing. due to a steady influx of nearly 400 inmates per day. unlike prison, where all the inmates have been convicted of a crime, the majority of jail inmates have either been accused
9:02 pm
of a crime or are awaiting sentencing. most of these new arrivals will stay a day or two before leaving on bond or dismissal of charges. others might stay for years, until their cases are settled. but no matter how long they're here, jail has a way of changing people. the dorms at maricopa's women's facility can be as transformative a setting as any. and one dorm in particular has earned a reputation. >> this particular dorm, g dorm, houses a lot of different inmates. a lot of them are repeat offenders and they come back in and see each other and they begin these relationships that are unauthorized or that we don't allow. so it can get pretty wild here in g dorm. >> one of those repeat offenders, kelly mcnaughton, is better known by her nickname. >> mcnaughty.
9:03 pm
as every officer here knows me. the sergeants. i tried to get them to change my name tag to mcnaughty, but they wouldn't. >> kelly mcnaughton is a game player. she runs schemes, runs games, tends to become a controller of a pod. what we call pod boss. >> this is my entourage. i have two blonds that when i get real stressed out, jacky and courtney, i just call them the blonds. >> i know! >> but i lay between them when i get real stressed out and hold their hands and i tell them all about my problems or whatever and they just sit there and look beautiful. >> she seems to be able to talk inmates into things. manipulate inmates, weaker inmates. she's not small. she has a good size to her stature, so that usually goes a long way. and she just seems to have a way of talking inmates into doing things that she wants them to do.
9:04 pm
>> mcnaughton might be in control of her fellow inmates in the dorm, but she is not always in control of her temper. >> i was mad because i got put in the hole for nothing. a lady really just had it out for me. i turned to the wall and i just -- [ bleep ] my hand. like blood everywhere. >> how long ago was that? >> five weeks ago. and it is still really bad. >> mcnaughton finds other ways to take the edge off the pressures of jail. the problem is, they all violate the rules. >> we've got beer, it's all hidden somewhere. i've got like 30 cigarettes up the -- it's a party. it's a party. everybody else makes the worst hooch. i don't know why. i was taught in 2004 how to make it. and still, to this day, i make the best hooch. >> that's where we keep it because it's warm. >> like a baby. >> an incubator.
9:05 pm
>> oh, my god! that's what we call them. babies. >> tattoos is my best thing though. i give the best tattoos out of everybody. >> mcnaughton says inmates pay for the tattoos by giving her commissary items. >> unfortunately, my addiction is honey buns which is 560 calories apiece which is why i'm so overweight right now. >> mcnaughton is known for one tattoo in particular. her name. she gives to it inmates she is involved with. crystal deluna is the most recent to receive the mcnaughton brand. >> it was supposed to be the mcnaughty, but it was too long, so we got kelly. and i think it came out really, really good. i like it. >> i've been waiting all year to be kelly's girlfriend but she didn't want to go out with me because i was pregnant at the time. now that i no longer have my baby, it's just like totally different. >> you had to work. >> i had to work my way to prove that i was girlfriend material.
9:06 pm
i had to manage the condo. this is our condo. every time she rolls out of bed, she expects her bed fixed so i fix it. it's just the thins that she does that sometimes i don't like. like she's a big flirt. >> in here, they call them lurds or lesbians until release date. that happens a lot. women that tend to be addictive personalities need some support. >> and mcnaughton claims she is just helping her dorm mates get ready for the prison environment. which is where some will be headed if their cases end in conviction. >> these girls aren't gay and they're going to have to be when they go to prison. so -- >> according to kelly. >> they will be. trust me. when these girls go, they'll come out with girlfriends, so i taught them like how to hop on and do weird things. with our stripes on and stuff like that. yeah. we had lesbian sex 101. >> she made us all try it out so that we could feel the feeling. >> yeah. and it was good. >> mcnaughton has recently set
9:07 pm
her sights on a new arrival. >> this is my new blond, jessica. fake boobs. really big fake boobs. nice ones. she's kicking heroin. kind of like the other blond. >> jessica arrived two days ago, still high on heroin and barely able to stomach the food. and though mcnaughton's gravitational pull in the dorm is strong, styx said she won't be sucked in. >> kelly is, i guess, a pimp. she has everybody doing everything for her, which i'm not going to do. i don't like girls at all. >> you know what she said to me last night? she looked at me and she goes, i'm not like you. i'm like good and i'm not in prison. >> oh, my god. >> no, i meant i'm not a
9:08 pm
hustler. >> is that what you meant? [ bleep ]. >> yeah. that's what i mean. [ bleep ] you looked at me and said i'm not like you. >> i meant i'm not a hustler. [ bleep ] because you hustle. >> how do you get pill money? >> what are the fake boobs for? if you're not hustling? >> because i had a good life at one time. i just started doing heroin two years ago. i wasn't like this. i was a really normal person. i had two kids. >> you strip? >> i never was a stripper. i never got naked for anybody. >> you got naked for us last night. >> well, i got -- just because they can see me in the shower doesn't mean i got naked for them. >> i apologize, mr. and mrs. -- styx. >> styx says she is committed to her boyfriend, who was arrested with her. >> it is weird when you find your soul mate and everything just fits. that's what's killing me. i don't know how he's doing. i don't know. i'm not worried about me right now. i'm worried about him. >> styx's boyfriend is at one of maricopa's men's facilities awaiting trial. they're accused of robbing a food cart vendor, but styx says they're both innocent and it was someone else who committed the
9:09 pm
crime. >> i had nothing to do with it. i really didn't. everybody says that. everybody says they're innocent. i know that. everybody says that in here, i know that. this is how ridiculous it was. do you think i'm going to rob some poor little mexican dude that works in the a cart for $20? like i had no money on me. no weapon. nothing. the other dude, the dude that actually threatened him with a knife, he bolted. >> we want normalcy in our life. we want to have a house and kids and jobs and like normal day-to-day things and i feel like that can never happen now. that can never happen now. that's gone. and we had so many chances to make it right and we didn't. i really hate myself for that. like i hate myself. i hate who i am. i love him so much and like, this whole time i've been preparing myself for if he did
9:10 pm
go to prison, i could wait three years, i could wait five years, i could do that, you know? >> but if they're convicted, styx will still to have deal with her own prison sentence. a reality kelly mcnaughton is quick to point out. >> i'm the legal defender for everybody. i'm telling her exactly what she's looking at. your first time is a felony two? >> yeah. felony two. presumptive is five years. minimum is four, maxes ten. you'll to five years. >> i'm not doing five years. i'm not doing none of that. >> okay. well -- >> i've never been in trouble before! >> doesn't matter. >> i got no priors! >> no? i thought you were in here for driving while suspended? >> so what, what's that? that's not -- >> so presumptive. five years, minimum four, maximum, ten. mitigated is three. i'm just being honest with you. because people can sugar coat it for you and stuff. >> i'm not doing it. i'm not.
9:11 pm
i'm not. my kids won't even know who i am by the time i get out. my kids won't even remember me. my kids won't even -- >> listen. >> i don't want to talk about this right now. >> okay. california just let out like -- >> [ bleep ]. >> sorry. i'll be right back. >> that's what happens though. >> when they're hurling they don't listen to anyone. they don't want to listen to anyone. >> it is upsetting and i hate bringing this thing out on people because they never want to listen to me. >> i didn't want to listen either. >> but it's the truth. where did she go? >> coming up -- >> like a big candy store to me. >> g dorm's other big player. >> daddy. that's what they call me. >> inmate mcnaughton manipulates and controls people more with intelligence. where daddy is more controlling sexually. sorry. hand cramp... ahh...

9:15 pm
inside g dorm at the estrella jail in phoenix, arizona, there is a gravitational pull that seems to have an effect on everyone. its name is kelly mcnaughton. >> come here, new blond. >> but a new inmate jessica styx doesn't seem to be taken by mcnaughton's charms or her legal insights. >> presumptive, five years, minimum four, maximum, ten. mitigated is three. >> i'm not doing that. [ bleep ] sorry. sorry, i'll be right back. >> okay. that's what happens. >> when they're hurling they don't listen to anyone. >> i was ready to hang myself. trying to figure out a way to kill myself. and i'm not suicidal. i love my -- you know what i mean? i have beautiful babies. i've had the most amazing life before i started doing heroin. i can't do this. i can't. i'm going crazy right now.
9:16 pm
i tried so hard to hold myself together. like i'll just walk away, you know? i tried so hard to just hold myself. i don't want to [ bleep ]. i don't want to get in a fight. i don't want to get new charges. i don't want to hit the wall and break my hands like these retards, dumb-ass girls. seriously stupid. like you're going to hit the wall? you're going to hit a brick wall? >> i don't want to smell it. >> though styx has not been in jail long, reality is starting to sink in. >> i'm just scared. i'm just scared to death. it's like, it sounds so stupid. i just want my mom. like i feel like i'm a little girl again. all there is to do in here is to think. think about why you're here. what you did wrong. you know what i mean? that's all there is to do. i can't sleep. i'm up all night long, all day long. that's the worst feeling in the world, is just being here all by yourself. completely alone. like, yeah, there's 120 other girls, but i don't know them.
9:17 pm
they're just people that are here. people that are stressing me out worse. >> but for the foreseeable future, styx will be stuck in g dorm, adapting to life without heroin and to the drama playing out around her, much of which is centered around the dorm's force of nature, kelly mcnaughton. >> kelly has all her new friends. the whole year i've known her, i feel like i've been replaced. mcnaughton has transferred her affection from crystal to one of her so-called blonds, jacqueline wadsworth. >> all of these girls came in. they all know her about two, three months and i've been like brushed off to the side. >> you can't do that. that's not cool right now. to pick you up? >> no! you guys are so oversensitive. all you girls are. so oversensitive. >> i'm not oversensitive! >> the only other g dorm inmate that can rival mcnaughton when it comes to women is melissa
9:18 pm
molina. >> like a big candy store to me. me, i go all out. if i'm going to be with you, we're going to go all out the first day. >> mcnaughton's respect for molina is evident in the nickname she gave her. >> daddy. that's what they call me. it's crazy. mcnaughton made up that name for me. me and kelly kissed a couple times. and she said how does this guy work? i'm not femme. you're not femme either. how is it going to work? she's crazy. i love her. >> though molina and mcnaughton might be g dorm's most dominant females, they're after two very different things. >> inmate mcnaughton is more of an intellectual type person. she manipulates and controls people with intelligence. where inmate molina, who they call daddy, who would be more controlling sexually.
9:19 pm
she is more -- physically looks more like a male. takes on more of a male persona in the housing unit. and may bring comfort or care to another female inmate more sexually as i will be your protector. i will take care of you. mcnaughton is doing the same thing. however, she is doing it in a different way. she is saying i'll take care of you, but we'll be sisters. >> it is about being someone's bitch, basically. someone is cleaning my bed. cleaning my area. it is not about [ bleep ] girlfriends. it's gay. >> but for crystal duluth, being mcnaughton's girlfriend was something more significant. >> i was really, really upset and i tried to take her name off my leg. >> she went crazy. she tried to dig my name out of her leg. it said kelly. she was trying to dig it out. >> i got a staple and i scraped it up and down on my skin to try to pull out the "e." it didn't hurt because i was so upset that my whole body just went numb and i just blocked out the pain. i was upset.
9:20 pm
because it's like a merry go round in here. once one girl breaks up with somebody, they end up with somebody else within two, three minutes. so i'm not going to let kelly bring me down. >> coming up -- >> i don't like girls at all. >> jessica styx has a change of heart. she joins the party in g dorm. >> i have a girl that's just helping me, you know what i mean? she's just being there for me. congratulations. congratulations. today, the city of charlotte can use verizon technology to inspire businesses to conserve energy and monitor costs. making communities greener... congratulations. ... and buildings as valuable to the bottom line... whoa ! ... as the people inside them. congratulations. because when you add verizon to your company, you don't just add, you multiply. ♪ discover something new... verizon.

9:23 pm
even for the inmates inside the maricopa county jail, appearance matters. >> too bad we couldn't get some highlights, huh? >> a group of professional hairdressers volunteer their time to give haircuts to the inmates. >> there are three or four of us that come. we are christians. we love jesus. that's why we're doing this. we are in service to our king. >> but some would say today's first customer serves no one but herself. >> this is a real interesting haircut that the girls are now getting. they're' bored and they want to do something different. >> is it a style you would
9:24 pm
recommend? >> no! i'm a girly girl. i think you need all the hair you can get. when you start shaving that hair underneath -- >> it will come back fuller. >> no, no, it won't. >> why not? >> that's an old wives' tale. >> i've shaved my legs since i was 12 and now i have three hairs growing out of each follicle. >> well, you know, someday, we'll have to ask god about that. i can't speak for him. he probably has a plan. i'm not sure what it is. >> with my hairy legs? >> yeah, with your hairy legs. >> the ladies love it. they get in my bunk and rub their legs up and down my leg hair. they say it reminds them of their boyfriend at home. it's a win-win situation for me, really. >> having come off a serious heroin binge prior to her arrest for armed robbery, jessica styx is ready to focus on her appearance. >> can you really thin it out? >> we don't have razors. >> it is really thick and
9:25 pm
matted. >> it's going to be great. i'm going to put a good conditioner in you. >> i'm so nervous. >> you'll be good >> every time someone does my hair, they [ bleep ] it up. no offense to you. >> no "f" words, please. >> sorry. they screw it up. >> we're on holy ground here. we don't talk like that. >> we're on holy ground? >> that's right. anywhere i stand is holy ground. >> oh, okay. >> but a makeover isn't the only change styx has experienced during her first five days in g dorm. >> i got a little tattoo. j.d., my boyfriend. i told him as soon as i get out, i'll be there. i'll be like, i'm going to write to him, send pictures, do whatever i need to do. i don't have anybody visiting me. my mom, i know she won't come visit me. i know she won't put money in my book. she said she wouldn't. i know she won't write me. my parents never, ever, dealt with this in their life. my family is completely normal. they work their asses off.
9:26 pm
nobody drinks, nobody does drugs. nobody in my whole family. so i'm a [ bleep ] up. >> you're adjusting to life in g dorm? >> i'm adjusting, yeah. because i have someone that's totally awesome looking out for me. >> tell me about her. >> i just have a girl that's just helping me, you know what i mean? she's just being there for me. >> yeah. she came in here and she's hot, of course. look at her. there is an attraction. and i knew she was straight and i knew she had a boyfriend. >> >> styx's new girlfriend is melissa molina, better known in g dorm as daddy. >> i thought she was kind of cute and i've never been attracted to a girl before. like ever, ever, ever. ever. >> so i was going to act on that and i was going to act on that fast. so we're all in the shower and it's shower time. everybody loves taking showers. that's when i'm in there. it's like a big friggin' party, you know? we go in there and do some
9:27 pm
pretty off the wall stuff. we scrub each others' backs. we sing. we just have fun, you know? it's like a big sorority house, but with a bunch of friggin' gay people in jail. none of us have our degrees, by the way. so there is no shower for her and i told her, come in with me in my shower. and she did! everybody was like, kiss her, molina. i turned around and kissed her. started kissing her. started giving everybody a show. >> it was really good. >> what do you mean? >> i mean, it's good. i mean, i told myself i would never do that. i've never been interested in that at all. but i don't know, there is something about her that i liked. >> i'm a good person. it was great for me too. after that, she fell in love with me. i didn't even know anything about her!
9:28 pm
so i had to know everything about her after that. so then we sat down and we ate and we talked. you know? i know we should have done that first. >> she thinks she is leaving in march but she's not. she's prolonging it so she can stay here longer with me. >> i got an attorney and i'm supposed to call him and tell him that i want to stay behind. i'm doing this for her. it's pretty -- >> love. >> when i first met you, you talked to me a lot about your boyfriend. you said, i love him and i want to wait seven years for him. was that heroin talking? >> no. that's like when i get out, i'm going to be there for him. >> styx has yet to be convicted, but she learned her boyfriend was offered a plea of seven years for his part in the crime. >> i thought i would be out. i didn't think i would be in prison. i thought he was going to be doing three years. and i thought that was realistic that i could do that. seven years? i don't know. i don't know how long i'm getting now.
9:29 pm
i just got my court date. i'm getting grand jury indicted. so i mean, right now it's like -- i don't know what's going to happen. as much as i love him, i don't know what's going to happen. >> coming up -- >> usually like i can bring up tears at the right time. >> kelly mcnaughton tries to beat the system. >> i'm serious! >> i'm thinking you're trying to negotiate the restriction with me and you know i don't negotiate. tle emotional hetlretl?tl aren't you getting a little industrial? okay, there's enough energy right here in america. yeah, over 100 years worth. okay, so you mean you just ignore the environment. actually, it's cleaner.
9:30 pm

[announcer] at conoco phillips we're helping power america's economy with cleaner affordable natural gas... more jobs, less emissions, a good answer for everyone. so, by reducing the impact of production... and protecting our land and water... i might get a job once we graduate. it'll cause cavities, bad breath. patients will try and deal with it by drinking water. water will work for a few seconds but if you're not drinking it, it's going to get dry again. i recommend biotene. all the biotene products like the oral rinse...the sprays have enzymes in them. the whole formulation just works very well. it leaves the mouth feeling fresh. if i'm happy with the results and my patients are happy with the results, i don't need to look any farther. show me the carfax. oh yeah, can you show me the carfax? sunglass holder... for sunglasses.
9:31 pm

9:34 pm
feces that her hooves were just literally coming apart. crumbling. i wanted to actually break down and cry when i seen her come in. >> the m.a.s.h. unit is set up for the inmates to take care of the animal, but sometimes the animals take care of the inmates. >> you're a good girl. >> loomis says caring for the horses has helped him cope with the anger problems that brought him to jail. >> i'm bipolar and i'm also diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder syndrome. i stopped taking my medications and i started going off and blowing up at home. i'm starting to lose my temper, starting to do things that i normally don't do. and next thing i know, the cops are at my door and i'm getting arrested for domestic violence and criminal damage. and now i'm here doing my time. my mom owns race horses. she is a training owner. it's a loving, caring thing. she babies the horses like they
9:35 pm
were little babies and i learned to do the same thing. you got to have love and care for them. if you don't, what good is something if you can't really show it love? love is a big thing in the world and we all need it. horses are very beautiful. they're strong, fast, but yet they're very gentle if you train them right. i can't explain it. it is just a love for them, you know? you've got to have it. you know? that's how i came here to m.a.s.h. loving horses. m.a.s.h. don't make me feel like jail. it makes me feel like home sometimes. it don't seem like i'm locked up, a prisoner anymore. when i go back to the yard, it's a different story. when i get here, i feel at home. >> while loomis has discovered a sense of home, the women residing in maricopa county's estrella jail often find in it relationships. but relationships can lead to conflict. >> we're going to go see miss mcnaughton. she was written up again for arguing with an inmate that was
9:36 pm
housed in g dorm with her. >> inside estrella's g dorm, inmate kelly mcnaughton is considered a force of nature with a powerful magnetic draw. recently, mcnaughton and one of her dorm mates had an argument that nearly escalated to a physical confrontation. detention officers were called in to break it up. now mcnaughton will have to face sergeant martinez to defend herself for the write-up she received. >> to be honest with you, i've gotten out of every single write-up i've ever had in my entire life. >> she likes to manipulate a lot. she always has a story. you'll see when we talk to her. >> usually like i bring on the tears like right at the right time. >> bunk 25! >> good morning. >> hi, how are you? >> i'm not so well. >> what happened? >> i've always told you the truth. remember? >> so what happened?
9:37 pm
>> okay. do you want the truth this time? >> no. i want to you lie to me so we can start off on a good note and then i'll work the truth out and then i'll get you into trouble for lying. no, go ahead. i'm only teasing. >> it was a loud conversation. it wasn't a fight. it wasn't anything. >> but they didn't write you up for fighting. >> i know. a loud conversation. this has been stressing me out. this has been a really -- first of all, it's been, you know, however many days long and i've been stressing out on this every single [ bleep ] day. this is like a bull [ bleep ] write up. she even told me that she didn't want to write me up. she told me that she wrote the other girl up way worse. but the other girl's write-up was way worse. i don't know. do you have the write-up? is it way worse? different? >> that's something i won't discuss with you. >> all right.
9:38 pm
well, that's what she told me. i'll take whatever you want. but no days in the hole, please. i do not -- i don't know. i don't know. i don't want to cry. we're on camera and i'm freaking out. >> i think that the 20 days of restriction would be sufficient, though. >> are you serious? >> i'm as serious as a heart attack, miss mcnaughton. >> i'm really, really, really freaking out. and i need to be able to talk to my mother. >> you just said you could give me as much restriction time as you want, but you didn't want to go to the hole, right? >> can the restriction happen -- can we not have it around like the 23rd? >> i'm thinking you're trying to negotiate your restriction with me. you know i don't negotiate. right? >> yeah. >> okay. sign here. sign for your yellow copy. you do have the right to appeal my decision. you have 24 hours to do so. make sure to attach the yellow copies and thank you for being honest. >> that one wasn't good. i usually win everything. you know what i mean? that's the first time i've lost.
9:39 pm
