every year, about 45,000 men and women are booked into the louisville metro department of corrections jail. on charges ranging from misdemeanors to murder. most have only been charged with their crimes and are here awaiting trial or the resolution of their cases. >> act like you got some sense. >> those stays can range from months to years. and during that time, some will find themselves with new troubles. >> we have some intel from two various sources. there's been a whole lot of marijuana that's been on the fourth floor. so what we're trying to do is we're trying to catch some and then try to link it back to certain inmates and then try to link where it's coming in. we have some ideas, so what we've got now, i've activated the shift team of s.o.r.t. and they're going to go in and try to get in there fast, search the inmates, search the dorm, and hopefully we can get some dope out of there today. >> go in there hard, get them out, search them, go back in, search the dorm.

all right. anybody causes us any problems, we cuff them up, we put them in one of the holding cells. we'll deal with them later. all right. any questions about what we're doing? >> go. >> everybody down! >> get down, get down! >> come on, move, move, move, move! >> take your shoes off. absolutely no joke. >> move, move! >> absolutely no talking, gentlemen. put your hands on the wall. >> no talking means no talking. >> the dorm is evacuated and the inmates are frisked for contraband. before they're moved to holding cells. then the s.o.r.t. team conducts a thorough search of the dorm. 45 minutes later, the search doesn't turn up marijuana. but one officer has found something that doesn't belong.

>> it looks like we've got some matches. and there's the -- matter of fact, there's the -- there's the striker off the back of the match packet. so a couple matches wrapped up in plastic. this constitutes as dangerous contraband because it can make fire out of them. he'll most likely get a write-up and be moved out of the dorm to a single cell. >> roll. >> let's go. back to your dorms. >> while most of the inmates return to the dorm, aaron byerly is rerouted by staff for some questions. the match heads were found on his bunk. >> i have extremely bad luck when the s.o.r.t. team comes in. aaron byerly is going down. >> he'll talk to the disciplinary officer in the morning. you just tell him your side of the story again. and then we'll decide if you're going to a single cell or allowing you to stay in the dorm, okay? >> all right. >> byerly will soon have a

disciplinary hearing to determine if he will go to segregation where he would lose most of his privileges and be locked in a cell 23 hours a day. but it would not be his first time there. >> all my write-ups are for smoking, fighting, promoting contraband, and flooding my cells. if you get put in the hole while you're here and you go to prison, you're going to the hole and you're going to prison. >> and prison is where byerly is headed. he was recently sentenced to five years after several repeat convictions for drug trafficking. he can transfer any day now. >> i headed up here because i was working for my father, and the money was getting a little bit tight and i liked the better things in life. so i started trafficking pills and stuff like that just to make extra money on the side. but i didn't do too well because look where i'm at. >> byerly, however, has accepted his fate and now looks forward

to leaving jail for prison where he believes he'll find better conditions. >> this is the worst time that you could do. this is the hardest time. it don't get no worse than this. it is nonstop stress. it is nonstop problems, it's nonstop headaches. this is nonstop horribility. i don't even know if that's a word, but it's horrible here. >> in louisville, a conviction does not necessarily mean a trip to prison is on the horizon. some inmates could serve short sentences in the jail. or even receive home incarceration. but if they break the rules at home, it's back to jail as mary loaden has just discovered. >> what's wrong? >> i'm just upset because they take me off h.i.p. and i didn't do nothing wrong for somebody to take me off h.i.p. >> what are you talking? >> so why did they take you off h.i.p.? >> because they say i blew a .4. i have five kids and tried to do everything right in my life. >> what's your name? >> mary lohden. >> mary lohden, when you first got put on h.i.p., one of the rules and stipulations was no alcohol, right? >> right.

she will remain until a judge decides whether to return her to home incarceration or make her serve the rest of her sentence in jail. but lohden seems determined to make an impression. >> hey, that's my bunk. >> yeah, it's mine now. you snooze, you lose. ain't no bunk [ bleep ] in jail. get that [ bleep ] right. >> hey, come back out here. >> they own bunks around here? >> come back outside. >> i'm good. >> come on, come on. we're going to go out -- >> excuse me? excuse me? excuse me. >> i said i'm pregnant and sick and i've got to be on the bottom bunk. >> okay, that's fine. but i didn't think the jail, nobody owns no bunks around here. [ bleep ]. >> we thought she was calm enough after talking to her to put her in first arrest dorm. obviously, sometimes that don't happen. a lot of times, they'll act out on purpose to get to a single cell because they don't want to be with other people. in this case, i think that's her

deal. >> we'll try it again later. >> we'll try it again later. >> coming up -- >> [ bleep ] all these bitches in this [ bleep ]. got a problem with me, i'll go to the hole -- [ bleep ] -- >> mary lohden decreases her chances of getting home. >> knock you down the side, fool -- >> and -- >> believe me, our house smelled like a decomposing body with a bunch of fragrance because you can't cover that smell up. >> an inmate admits to the grisly murder that hit close to home for one officer. >> first thing i wanted to do was take justice into my own hands. but i decided against that. staying active can actually ease arthritis symptoms. but if you have arthritis, staying active can be difficult. prescription celebrex can help relieve arthritis pain so your body can stay in motion. because just one 200mg celebrex a day

>> how did this man die? >> strangulation. >> hall admits to murdering one of his roommates. a 53-year-old disabled man named jeff bishop. he hopes to reach a plea bargain with prosecutors to avoid the death penalty, but it still looms over him. >> i'm thinking about them saying, mr. hall, we sentence you to death. i don't know. maybe i deserve to die, too. >> the murder occurred in this small house on the outskirts of the city. hall says he was high on drugs when he and bishop got into a fight. after strangling bishop, hall then tried to cover up the crime. >> the next day is when i took him to the basement. he was wrapped up in plastic. you couldn't see his regular body. all's you could see is plastic. >> hall had help in concealing the body.

it came from a third roommate, his girlfriend, heather baringer. >> when dennis told me that he needed my help, i was like, oh, no, no, no way, uh-huh. i don't think so. i was totally against it. then when he was -- he was like begging me, basically. he was like, i can't do this by myself, you know. i'm going to go to prison for a long time if we don't do this. i need you to help me move it, blah, blah. he was begging me. >> i was in shock. i have never in my life been in a situation like this. i never went back in the basement again. dennis did the rest. all i did was move him. >> for two weeks, bishop's body lay decomposing in the basement. >> and we got air fresheners and put it all through the house. believe me, our house smelled like decomposing body with a bunch of fragrance because you can't cover that smell.

>> baringer later told a friend about the murder, and he tipped off police. she admits to her role in the crime and is also attempting to reach a plea deal on charges of complicity to murder, tampering with evidence, and possession of forged documents. baringer and hall admit to stealing bishop's disability and social security checks to fund drug addictions. >> that one act took five minutes, took my whole life. >> but they are not the only ones at louisville metro whose lives have been profoundly altered by the murder of bishop. >> man on the walk. >> first thing i wanted to do was to take justice into my own hands. but i decided against that. >> bishop's brother is one of the jail's correctional officers. >> there were times where my brother and i were all that we had. and so we were pretty close. i don't remember a time without my brother.

>> officer bishop is assigned to sections of the jail where he does not come in contact with either hall or baringer. >> it's a good thing because to be honest with you, if he were to be walking out in the hallway, you never know what would happen. i couldn't say for sure what would happen. >> coming up -- >> i don't want anybody to say that they're sorry, because i know the only reason that they're sorry is they were sorry for getting caught. >> officer bishop faces his brother's killer in court. but first -- >> why are you doing that? >> to keep it from getting infected. >> i'll keep on cutting. >> an inmate's self-abusive behavior taxes jail staff. by po. oh, i like that one. it's so quick! it's just like my car insurance. i saved 15% in just 15 minutes. i saved more than that in half the time. i unfriend you. that's not how it works.

>> aaron byerly? >> today, byerly goes to a discipline hearing. which could result in his getting time in segregation. >> i'm not going to be a person that's going to put my business out there. if they say they found something then they found it. i'm not just going to say that it's mine and cop out like that. that's just not my style. >> go to the table over there and have a seat in that red chair. >> byerly is due to transfer to prison any day now. if he is sent to segregation before then, that sanction could carry over to prison, as well. >> you want to tell me your side of the story? >> yeah. when the s.o.r.t. team had came in, i was at the very front of the door. i was watching tv. there was a group of people by my rack. i don't know who put it there, i can't give you no individual name or nothing like that. all i can say is it wasn't mine. >> here's what i got. this isn't your first time getting caught with contraband. and it's hard for me to believe that that wasn't yours, especially it was wrapped up and underneath a cup in the corner of your bunk. i mean, you actually think

somebody had time to pick that cup up, throw it there and lay it back down? >> i can tell you the same thing, you're not going to believe me, you know. i can tell you my side of the story. you're going to do what you're going to do. >> september you got caught with a bunch of tobacco. november you got caught with narcotics. >> just because of previous offenses, i'm automatically guilty? >> you know what, i'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt. so what i'm going to do, i'm going to take two weeks of your gym and you're going to serve that. >> so i can't go to gym or nothing like that? >> you can't go to the gym for two weeks. all right? >> all right. >> i'm thinking it went pretty well, but the gym, yeah, i'm kind of mad about that. but i guess i can't go for two weeks. two weeks. he could have done it for a lot longer than that. so he was fair. >> confiscating contraband from inmates has always been a challenge for the jail. but now there's a more dire

problem. one which seems to grow every day. >> you know, probably a full 25% to 30% of our inmate population has some type of mental illness. we do a pretty good job of stabilizing our mentally ill folks that come through our doors once we get them through here. we get them back on their medications, for example. we take care of their health care needs. they go back to the street and either they don't have access to their medications or they quit taking it. they decompensate and a very short time later, they're back in custody, and we go through that cycle all over again. >> call medical up here. >> mr. coleman, we went through this how many times now? >> 19-year-old antonio coleman is not classified as a mentally ill inmate. but many of his actions require the same level of staff attention. in the four months coleman has

been at louisville metro, he's had more than 40 reports incidents of self-abusive behavior. now he has cut himself again. >> we went through this a couple ties. you get pressed out, what happens? >> [ bleep ]. >> he's beat his head before, he's cut himself before. it's usually just self-harm. it's never really against somebody else. it's just against himself. me and him have a real good rapport. just by talking to him, i can actually de-escalate the situation. >> so what's going on now? >> i been here too long, i'm ready to go. i'm one down so that's why i'm pressed out. >> you take your time already? what'd you take? >> five years. >> coleman was recently sentenced to five years in prison on charges of robbery and assault. >> prison is not as bad as jail. trust me on that one. i'm not saying it's going to be

merit lite. but, you know, it's a lot better than jail. >> where are you cut at? here. >> why are you doing that? >> just to keep it from getting infected. >> i'm just going to keep cutting it. >> why are you going to keep on cutting? >> because i am. >> what would make you stop? >> if you had time to keep on coming up here. i'm going to keep on cutting. till i die. it's going the hard way. across my neck. i ain't playing. >> the last thing i want you to do is for you to hurt yourself any more than you already have. >> because coleman threatened his own life, he's transferred to an observation cell and placed on suicide watch. meanwhile, officer ernest searches coleman's old cell to find what he used to cut himself with. >> a piece of his armband. he ripped his armband. it's laminated, got this sharp corner on it. looks like that's what he's been using to potentially hurt himself. >> coleman will exchange his jail uniform for a suicide

easley, thinks coleman's recent sentencing to five years in state prison for robbery and assault is a contributing factor to this latest incident. >> okay. does the court scare you sometimes? >> sometime. >> okay. is that why you got so upset was after court last week? >> yeah. >> and what was upsetting you? what were you worried about? >> because i ain't never been down here, and i didn't know what it's like and what it's going to be. >> so next time you go to court, you won't be so scared because you know? is that what you mean? >> yeah, because i already know what's going on, so i'll be straight. >> and i believe you will. when you're in new territory, it can be scary. >> yeah. >> but once you've been there before, you're not so scared. >> right. >> does that make sense? >> yeah. >> i can feel that way, too. >> yeah. >> all right. so you want to get your clothes back? >> yes, sir. >> do you want to get a jump suit and go back to level ii? >> yes, sir. >> all right, that's what we'll do. all right. do you need anything else? >> no, i don't need anything.

>> thanks a lot. see you later. >> all right, thank you. >> staff are hopeful that coleman has calmed down. and might remain so until his upcoming transfer to state prison. but mary lohden has had a setback. >> now i'm back in here. where i -- man. where i first started. >> first started. >> hi, ms. kelly. ms. kelly? >> she has been sent to segregation for 15 days after an officer found her with cash and a lighter. >> when he told me that i was going to get 15 days in here, i mean, i -- i was ready to just clock out, which means i was ready to uppercut him. you know? i felt like uppercutting the man, you know what i'm saying? and i'm glad i didn't. had my little outburst or anything, but, yeah, i felt very, very angry. >> lohden's solitary segregation cell is significantly different from the dorm she left behind. >> you're stuck in this little room with nobody in here. just your day drags. it drags and drags.

you know. it seems like you're in here even longer. one day is like two or three days. you don't get to use no phones or nothing. you barely see the tv. i am in a good spot where i can see the tv a little bit. and this right here is only open because we're about to eat. once we get done eating, the slot goes back up. it's no fun at all. >> i take things for granted in my life. i took a lot of things for granted in my life. the important things is the things, you know, i always slip up on. so i'm going to try to work on that. so i don't keep on coming back here. >> aaron byerly also has a history of coming back to jail on various drug-related charges. this time he received a five-year press soon sentence ask can be transferred out any day. so he's doing his best to stay in shape since his gym privileges were suspended after he was caught with contraband. >> i'm doing a limited amount of exercise. you can't do no cardio in here

unless if you want to be looking retarded. >> working out is one of the only ways byerly deals with the monotony of jail. >> the best thing that happens in my day is going to sleep. because then i get a few hours of freedom. my dreams take me into completely different -- completely different places. i'm always on the streets when i'm dreaming. i'm never locked up. it takes me out of this environment for a good six, seven, eight hours. >> while bierly's dreams offer him a brief reprieve, dennis hall has just made a deal for a far more significant break. >> mr. hall, raise your right hand for me? do you solemnly swear or affirm the testimony you're about to give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? >> i do. >> thank you, sir. >> he's been in louisville metro for two years, facing a potential death sentence. but has just reached a plea agreement with prosecutors to spare his life. >> at this point in time, mr. hall would like to withdraw his plea of not guilty. >> instead, he will serve 40 years in prison.

>> i may die there. 40 years is a long time. it's basically a lifetime. >> step over there on the wall, place your hands on the wall. >> hall's co-defendant, heather baringer, has also reached a plea agreement. the most serious of her charges, complicity to murder, has been dropped. >> i was sentenced for tampering with physical evidence and possession of a forged document. that's all. just those two things. it's 10 years at 20%, which is two years. >> because baringer has also been at the jail for almost two years, she could serve as little as an additional three months in prison. >> i will be on parole or probation for the next ten years. as long as i don't do anything wrong, break any laws or anything like that my life will go back to being normal. >> baringer's new normal will be one without hall. >> i miss him.

i wish all this wouldn't have happened. i never planned for this to be a part of my life. i still have feelings for him but i'm going to try for the rest of my life to worry about me. >> we can remember the good times, because we can't be together no more. just remember each other. i never had no one love me like heather. she has a soft heart and i love her. i always will. coming up, dennis hall goes back to court again. but this time, to hear from the brother of his victim. >> i had a lot of sleepless nights, wrestling with the decision of whether or not to allow the state to take its course or for me to do the job myself. you seem knowledgeable, professional. i'm actually a dj. [ dance music plays ] woman: [laughs] no way! that really is you? if they're not a cfp pro, you just don't know. cfp -- work with the highest standard.

buttons. what phones are supposed to have? one for each number. so-called smartphones have two, maybe three buttons max. that's neat, but what do you do when you want to dial a four? it's not so smart then, is it? (laughter) nice phone, dude. thanks!

unlike prison where

sentenced inmates arrive from jails all over the state, jail inmates come from a much smaller region. they often know each other or staff from the streets. dennis hall has an especially uneasy acquaintance with officer chad bishop. hall murdered his brother. and today must appear in court for his formal sentencing. >> you are on the record in the case of commonwealth of kentucky versus dennis m. hall. ready to go forward on the final sentencing? >> judge, we are. >> we had passed this case briefly to allow the victim's family the opportunity to be present for final sentencing. folks, i'm happy to hear from whoever would like to be heard. i will tell you the only rule is that you have to address me personally. this is not a chance for you to talk to mr. hall. it's your chance to talk about mr. hall but that you're to address me and not speak to him directly. it's hard, but that's the way it's got to be.

okay? anybody have anything they want to tell me before i impose sentence? >> chad bishop has been preparing for this day and has a statement ready for the judge. >> he doesn't realize this, but by his sentencing today, you're actually setting me free. i've had a lot of sleepless nights. wrestling with the decision of whether or not to allow the state to take its course or for me to do the job myself, to be honest. but i have more than myself to think about. so i'll allow justice and the state to run its course and do my job for me. and it won't be quick. and painless. it's going to be over a very long period of time where every day, he gets to die just a little bit more.

and i worked the prison system and i worked for metro corrections. and no matter what anyone says, those that are incarcerated for a long period of time, they do die a little bit every day. because they don't get to do the same things that we in the free world do. it's not going to bring my brother back. it's not going to repair the damage that was done. i don't want anybody to say that they're sorry. because i know the only reason that they're sorry is they were sorry for getting caught. it's a military thing. i bought some victory cigars not long ago. i'll be smoking one this evening. and i have a very special one that cost me $22 that i'm saving for the day when i get the phone call from one of the institutions and they tell me that he's finally dead.

well, our family is going to be getting together that very evening, and i'm not kidding. and we're going to be throwing a dennis-hall-is-dead-and-he's-in- hell party. and that's going to be a day of celebration for the family bishop. so i'd like to thank you for your time. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> i was actually hoping to look dennis hall right in the eyes. and i wanted him to know that i meant every word that i said. let there be no mistake. when men talk, usually we look each other in the eyes. so i wanted to look him in the eyes and let him know how i actually felt. and when the judge told me that i had to address the court, that took a little bit of the satisfaction out of being able to express myself. but i took my best shot because that's the last time he and i are going to see each other or

be in the same room together again. >> mr. hall, i don't know what happens once you go behind that door, i think you do. you've been to the penitentiary. i agree that it's a wholly unpleasant place to be. my hope for you, and it is for everybody in your situation, is that you take advantage of whatever opportunities are there for you. and that, at some point, you develop a sense of empathy for what you've done to these people. not just to mr. bishop, but to his family. and the curse of that is that you will feel the horror of that. but the blessing of that is that that will allow you to change. good luck with what happens next. thank you all.

what are you trying to conceal, buddy? >> a repeat offender smuggles contraband into the jail. >> my case is considered high profile because the guy killed was a local celebrity. >> after murdering a louisville rap star becomes a marked man. a prescription pill epidemic
