[ bleep ] . >> by most accounts, grand rapids, 20 miles east of michigan is an ideal place to live. like all cities, it has an underside. when crime occurs here or in the outlying areas, the arrested

person is likely to spend time at the kemp county jail. most of the 1,000 male and female inmates are accused of crime and are awaiting the resolution of their cases. jail officials take strides in a manner that will minimize any problems. how are you doing? good. >> we evaluate everybody that comes in know their risk, their need, we have housing areas, inmates of the same type of risk, same type of needs and that's how you keep your jail safe if possible. >> some cases require the jail to take extra precautions. >> would you open 42, please? >> now the case in the jail involves four suspects. it is a very serious sexual assault and home invasion. and the importance to keeping those people separate is a full time responsibility. you can have some very violent

situations. one of those suspects wants get to to the other one before he talks about the case. his life is in danger. >> the four suspects were booked into the jail one year earlier on charges of first degree home invasion, armed robbery and first degree criminal sexual conductor rape. a fifth suspect is a 14-year-old boy. housed in the jail's juvenile wing. three of the four adult suspects, dorian jones, james hodges, and brandon touns have pled guilty to all charges and are awaiting sentencing. >> it was supposed to be in and out. once we got in there, those people there, things just went, people was getting beat up, tied up and it was basically like everything happened like that. >> town said he and his co-defendant entered the home in the predawn hours following the party held there the night before. they wore masks to conceal their

identities. the home belonged to students at a local college. >> we went there because we knew it was a bunch of people having a party. and they said they would be really drunk so why not go back later. >> according to prosecutors, three male victims in the house were robbed and pistol whipped. the one female victim reported being tied up, blindfolded, beaten and raped by the suspects. they could still receive maximum consecutive sentences on all their charges. >> could i get 15, maybe 20 years. i'm hoping i just get ten years of. >> i know i will do at least ten years. >> if i did that, it would be life. he would rather take something and never see my son. >> one year later the three member are still in jail awaiting sentencing.

are saying that he played a key role. that he not only participated in the crimes but was actually a guest at the party. part of a plan in which he would case the location for the others. >> if he goes against you, he would rather get caught saying he fought going down instead of saying i didn't go down like the rest of them. when you fight, you age doing nothing but pissing them off. you make the judge and the victim go through this again. the emotional, so if you do lose, you're going to be a hit. >> but he said his co-defendants lack credibility. >> four against one. it is pretty bad odds. >> even though they've all pled guilty. they deny having committed the acts. the victim stated she could not identify them because they wore masks but some of the victim

were still able to identify him. >> they had a party. >> they had a party and when she seen his body belt, she, oh, yeah, he was tall, skinny, this and this and that. >> what have the victims said about you? >> the victim didn't say anything about me. >> what did the victim say? >> she said she was raped. she didn't say i raped her. the victims said they didn't see anybody. >> what was her description? she gave a description of the person who raped her, correct? >> i think we're done here. put me in my room. somebody in my case. i'm done. get this mic off. i'm done.
