i'm giving a direct order to pull your hands back. i'll be back in a few minutes. i'll let you think about it. hope you decide to put your hand back in. okay? let's go for a few. >> gerald, i already knew you was right there. don't think you was slick. due to mature subject matter, viewer discretion is

advised. ♪ i think i've been provoked for over a year. this has been building and building and building and building. sometimes this is the only way people listen. >> this is the end of the line. this is level six. so he's not going to leave this prison. all the bad apples are here. >> take a cat and put it in a corner, throw a pit bull in there and back him in the corner, he's going to react. he's going to come out of the corner. you know?

the penitentiary of new mexico houses both low-level and maximum security inmates. the most dangerous and notorious are held in level six. >> you want to make me look like the monster. i've been here over 2 1/2 years. i never did nothing. i don't disrespect nobody. i don't cause no problems or nothing. but just because i'm small and i'm able to slip the handcuffs anytime i want, i'm a problem. i got locked up when i was about 10 1/2. i got grand theft auto. i've been to probably over 30 prisons. probably around 20 in florida. six or seven in oklahoma. three here.

i don't get in trouble. i don't disrespect anybody. cops come to my door. i'm always yes, sir, no, sir. yes, ma'am, no, ma'am. i don't disrespect nobody. you know? i've made my mistakes and did some stupid stuff when i was young. but hurt somebody to where they went to the hospital and ended up dying later on, you know, but never been charged with murder. a lot of people, like, the first thing they think about me is they think about somebody like macgyver or something. because i stabbed somebody with some jolly ranchers. i took a bunch of jolly ranchers off the canteen, melted it down into a cone, let it get hard like a rock, and it's like a piece of -- it's actually stronger than glass. i could slip this cuff right now and stab that cop. but why? what's he ever did to me? nothing. i just -- i believe in karma.

if you do good, good things happen. if you do bad, bad things come out to get you. i've been in here so long that if i was to get to the street i wouldn't even know how to act. >> how much time do you think you're going to spend, more time in prison? >> i'll never get out. i'll never -- i'll never get out of prison. i'll be here for the rest of my life. they think that i'm going to flip out. they think i'm going to flip out and hurt somebody, you know? i go crazy every day, you know. just being here. do i think i'm going to hurt somebody? that's -- i mean, that's pretty much a fact. eventually it's going to end up happening. this is prison. i mean, this isn't -- this isn't kindergarten. you know. i mean, not everybody gets along. >> today, chris shiverdecker has a hearing that could affect his custody level and security status. >> okay, christopher. you know why you're in here.

>> yes, ma'am. >> all right. >> transfer custody review. >> initially, you were placed on level six for posing a threat to the security of the institution. you self-admitted being in an altercation with another inmate, and after a cell search two homemade weapons were found in your cell. you do have an extensive history of violent behavior and assaults while incarcerated in oklahoma department of corrections. however, here you are an ideal inmate. based on your file, you can go back to general population here in new mexico. we're going to do the recommendation to release you to level five. however, cbc -- >> what's that? >> prosecution bureau. is going to make the ultimate decision. do you have any other questions for us at this time? no? you want to go to level five? >> level two or level three. >> you want to go to gp? well, according to your file you can. okay?

thank you. have a good day, all right? >> thank you. >> this is your paperwork. >> certainly he deserves to be moved because he has had clear conduct. since he's been here, he hasn't done anything. you know, he hasn't hurt anyone. and he is so small that he can slip his handcuffs, and he's shown us that. >> according to his file, he's set up to go. clear conduct. no misconduct reports. no behavior log notations. paperwise, he's eligible to be released from level six. >> our feeling is that we'd like to see them try to make it in a less restricted area, you know. that is our hope. >> shiverdecker's behavior in the coming weeks will help to determine whether or not he's transferred to a lower level. but even inmates in the prison's least restricted level two dorm still get out of control. >> who said that?

who made that comment about that bitch? i'm not going to take any disrespect to the staff. it's not your business what the case worker does. so i catch you to your face calling somebody a bitch, you'll go to level five or level six. do you understand me? >> it's a privilege to be in level two. this is a short-term facility. you have to have less than 2 1/2 years to be here. and so, you know, that's part of our responsibility is getting them ready to hit the street, go back home, be successful and not come back. you know, with the 18 years that i've spent working in the field of corrections, and the majority of that time with men, there's a respect factor that you get being female, especially in the state of new mexico.

that because they view you as mom, sister, grandma, whatever. and they feel like you're going to take care of them because that's how they view the female role. >> so i gave you a ua. >> and it was dirty. >> no, it wasn't dirty. it wasn't dark pink. it was light pink, you know? >> i think that they think i'm a little more inclined to listen to what they have to say. >> i say, well, you need to call the lieutenant or sergeant down here so we can get a second opinion. and he didn't want to. he took the cup from me, took the top off, poured the pee down the toilet, and threw the cup in the trash. >> it's not the man-to-man thing where right away there is a line and it's like, well, who's going to win? you know. >> you certainly have the right to appeal the report. if you're found guilty. you haven't been found guilty, right? >> it works to my advantage, quite frankly, because they tend to listen to me. and i'm not saying two wrongs don't make a right, okay? but for somebody who hasn't had

a report in 11 years and has a family visit in july, i kind of can't tell. you know what i mean? >> yeah. >> so i'd be walking a little bit straighter line. but we're always going to work through by policy. so the end result is usually still the same. but the way they approach me is probably different than a male deputy warden. >> not all inmates respect the relative freedoms the level 2 dorm provides. getting caught for drugs or other prohibited behavior. >> we received a kite this morning. basically a kite being a confidential note from an inmate that was left under the classification officer's door for the warden. basically saying that there are rigs, razor blades, knives all over. so what we've decided to do is restrict movement in the whole facility. we are going to conduct shakedowns. we have the dogs here. and those are the things that we're looking for. any contraband, of course, but also weapons, drugs. watch where you put your hands because if they have drugs, that means there are syringes there.

we'll also be conducting interviews with inmates. that may have some information that they're willing to share with us. or otherwise inmates suspected of having drug activity here in the facility. we take every bit of information that we get seriously because they have the opportunity to hurt each other here. we know it's out there. so our mission is to find it. coming up next on "lockup: extended stay." the shakedown begins, and the tip pays off. >> i've just found a syringe. >> and shiverdecker claims he can slip his cuffs. he wasn't kidding. >> we knew there was business -- or there was something going to happen.

so they're stripping the inmates before they're bringing

them out of the units. then they're going to be relocated to the gym so we can begin the shakedowns in this particular area. we will run the dogs through to detect any narcotics that the dogs may pick up on. >> here, food, food, food. >> what rooms did you get a hit on? >> 402, 404, 419. >> we were supposed to go to the store today so we could get our food but we're stuck in here with some [ bleep ]. they want to see your [ bleep ]. lift up your sack. all types of [ bleep ]. >> they just came in to shake us down. steal a bunch of [ bleep ]. mess everything up. go back, fix it up. same old thing. >> we lose a lot of stuff like that. our papers. our letters. our personal pictures.

>> no drugs. no nothing here. yeah, this is a safe zone. >> somebody gets in trouble why we all got to pay for it there? they always sit there and complain that you've got to do your own number. so let us do our own number and stop taking everybody who gets in trouble and making everybody punished. >> what's going on now? >> they're interviewing. they're probably going to ask if we know about drugs. then we just tell them no comment, they get mad at us, and we come back. >> threaten to lock you up? >> yeah. >> we know you know something. you either tell us or go to the hole. well, let's go to the hole. >> felix lewis! >> yeah. here we go. let's see what they got to say about me. >> huh?

>> what's your name? >> felix lewis. >> what gang are you in, lewis? >> 18th street. >> you're 18th street? >> yeah. >> can you tell me about any drugs in the unit? >> nope. >> no. any gang activity going on in the unit? >> no, there is none of that at all. i don't bang or nothing. i'm too old for that. >> is there any violence pending? >> there's none. really this is probably one of the calmest, less tension places that i've been so far. and i've been in every prison in new mexico. so it's not bad here. i like it. >> all right, lewis. take it easy. keep it safe, all right? >> all right, thank you. do i go back to the unit or -- >> no. go back in the gym. >> all right. well, the truth of the matter is that when you get them isolated, they will talk to you. i've had two inmates already give me information about what's going on in here. so this whole ideal that there's

an inmate code or something isn't always true. there are people that will -- there are actually people in prison that want to do the right thing, that want to clean the place up. so we find those people. that's why we do interviews. >> after hours of investigation officers score a big find in the dorms. proving the inmate tip-off was legitimate. >> i just found a syringe. >> that's a good find. >> i've got to go write a report right now. >> sit down.

>> found a syringe in your property. >> in my property? >> tell him exactly where you found it. >> the officer found it in your cubicle, in your dresser in a hat. take off your shirt. >> are you a drug user? stand up. and your other one. all right. you've got marks. >> that's from scrubbing in the shower. >> i don't get those. >> you've got marks. >> no, feel it. it's not marks. see? >> nope. >> well, we found this in your property, so what that means is we're probably going to lock you up. >> i wouldn't have left it there, you know, if i was using. >> so this was found in your hat and you're telling us that it's not yours? >> somebody's going to set me up or something. >> so if we were going to give a ua you would be clean? >> pretty sure. >> i'm sorry? >> yeah, i should be clean. >> you should be. so there's a question about it.

you should pretty sure. >> well, i'm not sure. >> well that, means that you're using drugs? >> when is the last time that you used? >> in almost a month maybe. >> what, did you shoot up? smoke? what? >> shot up. >> heroin? >> yeah. >> that's where you shot up right there, correct? >> yeah. >> who are you buying it from? >> i can't say that. are you crazy? >> strip him and ua him and see what we come up with. and we're going to lock you up. okay? >> all in all i think it was a successful day. i think we sent a message that we're not going to tolerate any drug use in this level two facility and that if we find you doing that, especially if we find the paraphernalia, you're going to lock-up, and that's exactly what we did today. >> next on "extended stay," felix came up clean in the shakedown, but some fresh tattoos could get him locked up. >> i'm getting aimed at. i'm getting shook down more than

>> do you wish to call anyone whose testimony is relevant in this case? >> there's no witnesses. >> you've been charged with category 8, paragraph 30, tattooing and/or tattooing or paraphernalia. do you admit or deny the report? >> i deny it. >> do you wish to present your version of the incident or do you wish to remain silence? >> my version. i was in the unit and i was called out. they told me that they've received information that i had received new tattoos. they asked me if that was true. i said no. so i stripped for them, and they seen my tattoo right here that has red ink in it, and they said that it was a new tattoo. i told them to look more closely, that it was red ink. and they were insistent that it was new. four days later, i'm in the hole. phd second major, my whole time being down. never had a major before the last one.

but i don't understand why i'm locked down. and still they said the redness was evidence that my tattoo was new. and it's still red. because it's red ink. there's nothing i could do to change that. it's red ink. >> do you or your representative have any motions or considerations to present? >> his arm is still red. >> so your motion is? >> to dismiss it. >> stick your arm out here. how come it looks like you've been scratching it? >> i haven't been scratching it. my whole arms are dry. i just don't got no -- just don't got no lotion. look. i'm telling you.

>> any considerations? >> consider -- what do you mean? >> any considerations -- considerations would be if i were to find you guilty, you'd want me to take into consideration that you had clear conduct or you're a model inmate or -- >> i don't know about being a model inmate, but if you look, in eight years i've never had a major report except for one. i don't have an extensive disciplinary history. i'm being singled out. i'm being targeted. i'm being picked on, and it sucks. >> okay. >> i'll review the evidence and the report and your testimony and make my decision. my decision is subject to the review and revision by the deputy warden. the deputy warden may approve or reduce or modify or reverse my decision. do you understand? >> yes. >> do you understand everything that's been explained to you during the course of this hearing? >> yes.

>> at 2:30 p.m. on 5/6/08 the hearing on m-08-041 is completed. you are hereby excused from this hearing. >> is it dismissed? >> not yet. >> oh. >> i've got to go make -- i've got to go review all this. his best-case scenario is that i dismiss the report. his worst-case scenario is he'll stay in the hole for those suspended sanctions on top of whatever i give him and then he'll lose whatever good time. i'm really not sure at this point. i have ten working days to make my decision. the deputy warden has five working days to sign it and five working days to serve him. >> am i going to get shot if i go out there? >> we're going to try to keep you safe. >> okay. >> 410 tower. >> the day peaches has been waiting for has finally arrived. he is about to receive the final verdict on his request for a transfer to a lower-level prison. >> how's it going today, kenneth? >> good. >> all right. good.

>> mr. morgan, we called you in today to give you the results of the committee action. a decision made by the classification bureau on the recent committee that was held in the review that was done for your possible transfer to a level one facility. unfortunately, at this point, the prosecution bureau is not willing to approve the transfer because of the time frame still left. your projected release date. so we wanted to take this opportunity to let you know. >> okay. so how long until i can reapply again? >> patrick? >> in six months we'll go ahead and reevaluate you. just make sure in between now and then you don't pick up any reports and just keep bringing your good time. we'll get you there eventually. we really will. i'll work really hard to get you there. >> do you have any other questions for us? >> no. no. all right. appreciate it. thank you. thanks. >> the classification bureau

will review inmates that don't meet the time criteria, but he's a model inmate here, so we referred him early, and they took into consideration all of our criteria that we recommended him and have decided not to override or consider him for early transfer. >> i'm pissed because i want to go to the farm, but there's nothing i can do about it. they have the ball, so it's in their court. i mean, i just can't walk out. so i'll be patient and wait till they let me go. >> but rather than give up all hope, peaches gets back to business as usual. >> this is my job for the day. i make a certain amount of money an hour. >> how much are you talking about? >> how much hourly? 75 cents. 75 cents an hour. but there's more that get paid better, but that's why we have the farm. you get like $1.25 to $1.50 an hour there. >> peaches, look around you.

look how close you are to the front gate. >> uh-huh. >> how does it make you feel? >> the front gate's open, too. i'm here to do my time. you get a lot more years if you run. and that's not where i want to go. i'm not here that long. i'm not worried about all that. i'm worried about getting home. i have family. it's a tedious job. somebody's got to do it, though. i could just be sitting inside, though, all day long. next, felix and joni have a heart to heart. >> i guess this is a reality check. >> yeah. >> and shiverdecker gives a rookie officer some friendly advice. >> if i feel like i'm in a bad situation, if i have to go through you to save my own ass, so be it. that's what i'm going to do. that will make it drop over, and over again. ♪ from jammin' jerk chicken, to creamy gouda bisque.
