they learn their lesson. however, we have a lot of individuals that are, it's like a reinvolvolving door, they're here every other week. >> it's frequently patrolled by members of the jail's special operations group or sog. they're specially trained tactical officers with less than lethal weapons. >> brown has a specific kinetic energy. we know exactly how much force we use at all times and carry p.o.v. cameras because audio and video. >> the team frans monthly to quell any major problems. but finds their presence alone serves as a deterrent. >> when they see us wearing this uniform, plus the shotgun, they know we mean business and that's when we see them back down.

cleared for general population. >> while housed in general population, stafford was cited nine times for misconduct. the most recent violation that sent him to disciplinary segregation was caught on surveillance cameras. >> push the limits. right there, he pulls the chair. he's just trying to get a rise out of the officers. make their day a little bit worse for them. so they're trying to let stafford know they're not going to put up with it but at the same time, it doesn't bother them. >> moments later, stafford raised the stakes. >> i was standing against the wall. i think my hands were crossed. >> officer zwikada was in stafford's unit. >> i grabbed him and brought him down to the ground. i saw the guy swinging on me with something in his hand. i didn't know if it was stafford or something else. i didn't know until on the ground, it was stafford. he said, it's stafford, it's stafford. i'm just joking.

i was like, i don't joke like that. >> he had a soda bottle. it could juice, urine, anything. >> there was no way possible i could possibly try to harm him. >> did you have a bottle in your hand? >> my, my juice or whatever was in it, i wasn't going to hit him with it. it's like this bottle right here. i'm thirsty. >> he's young, he's immature, he's a child. if understand dwayne as a child, immature, that's what he's looking for is the negative attention. >> stafford was given 30 days in segregation for the incident with officer zwikada but all segregation inmates are reviewed for earlier return to general population. >> you may give a charge of 30 days but once you're full in there, you're reducing to get back in general population.

>> but staff say every now and then, an inmate prefers segregation. >> how have you behaved since been in? >> horrible. >> um to remain in 1a? >> this all could have been reviewed the last time i got charged, i don't even remember. >> after several minutes of circutus questions and answers, officers decide he will remain in segregation but before he leaves, sergeant gaines raises a new concern. >> you want my nails clipped? >> yes, sir. >> look at your nails. you talk about mine? you should clip your long nails. mr. ball sack. >> have a good day, mr. stafford.

donuts and then the big bags of potato chips last a while. this is like 50 and you can order up to a hundred dollars. but other than that, usually my grandma puts $50 every other week. so this will last me about two weeks. and then i got the girl down the way who was with me the other day. i got first in canteen, so i actually give these to her. >> agee shares her snacks with jessica roberts, a former classmate she ran into in jail. >> we never really hung out in school, but we knew each other. >> all right, i'll see you when i see you. >> yeah, she's jessica. long time no see. we've gotten together and talked and yeah, i mean, we know the same people. so it was like good. >> when agee returns to life on the outside is uncertain but she said when she does, her goals are simple. >> i want to be able to have something like an apartment and

a little piece of crap car but something to call mine and a place to go home with my kids, you know? and live like i'm supposed to. a normal life, but when you're doing this, you kind of really don't know what normal is. >> agee's activity over the past two years included drug addiction and several jail stays. she said her slide began when a friend introduced her to heroin. >> was like, try it one time. i was like, man, all right. screw it. i'll do it. and it was just awesome. really bad to say that, but it was. >> now agee faces more serious consequences than ever before. she's charged with first degree burglary and can face years in prison if found guilty. police discovered her phone outside a home where agee said she tried to steal a tv in order to buy drugs. she told investigators she acted alone, but that might not be the truth. >> that's my story.

that's the story of what happened. that's what they have on paper. i mean, i would say what really happened but that would make me a snitch too, so that's my story. >> even if telling the truth could help your case? >> yep. even if telling the truth could help my case. >> that's a very big price to pay. or it could be a very big price to pay. >> yep, but the other person could suffer a lot more than i could, so. >> you're willing to suffer for both of you? >> yes. i'll do that just fine. >> everyone knows that. i'm a criminal. >> at the time of her arrest, agee was living with her boyfriend, josh gohr but said he had nothing to do with the

burglary. >> the officer wrote samantha as extremely adamant that mr. gohr was at home asleep while she stole his mazda, da da da, went through the window in the garage and like, yeah. so she did that. >> i love him to death, oh my god. i'm hoping and i pray that me and him can get it together. i need him. he's like my backbone to everything, you know? so i'm hoping we can figure this out for this last time because everything happens for a reason. >> i still love her to death no matter what but she keeps sending me these letters. mention to please stand by me and i'm so, like, what kind of a person not to? that would make me a real piece of crap. >> for agee, drugs and jail already damaged other relationships, especially those with her 7-year-old son and

4-year-old daughter from prior relationships. >> i don't write my daughter because they don't let me see her but i write my son and i talk to him. >> agee's daughter now lives with her dad's family. her son lives with agee's father. >> i do know that's what i want most of my life to be a good mom because i know i am. it's just drugs are a big down fall in my life. and it's been that way for a while. coming up -- >> someone called me freddy krueger the other day. i was like, how dare you? >> he and his nails have a day of reckoning. >> didn't even get to see where it came from. >> the contraband note leads to new problems for samantha agee and gohr. so ally bank really has no hidden fees on savings accounts?

that's right. it's just that i'm worried about you know "hidden things..." ok, why's that? no hidden fees, from the bank where no branches equals great rates. it can help walter find a place to stay for the night. it can keep this guy warm, and these two fed. one small donation can help a tail to keep wagging. a nose to keep sniffing. a heart to keep beating. by donating, you can save a pet from being 1 of the 9,000 killed in shelters each day. to donate, visit bestfriends.org/join and together, we can save them all.

way. others, you know, they're by themselves in a few hours and drive themselves crazy, literally. it was for consequences of your actions and it's not like it's a secret. they give inmate the handbook and regulations. taught what's right and wrong. respond to a authority appropriately. do what you're expected to do. we're not asking anything more than that. >> today, officer shep arid must deal with one inmate, many on staff believe relishes disciplinary segregation. >> inmate stafford is currently housed in this segregation unit for nails that exceed the current limit a quarter of an inch. his nails beyond that length and can be utilized as a women. >> how could they be possibly long? somebody called me freddy krueger the other day. i was like, how dare you. >> stafford has been offered

nail trimmers several times today. today is his final day. >> how are you doing today? >> awesome. >> outstanding. remember the nails, sir? over a quarter of an inch as per regulations. let me see it, let me see your nail. they're exceeding a quarter of an inch. the policy. mr. stafford. i'm going to give you the clippers to cut your nails sir within a quarter of an inch. otherwise, have to get sergeant to take care of it. and you also will receive extra. you understand what i'm telling you? okay, i'm going to open this flap sir, and give you the clippers. you're not going to do it? >> no, no. where's your ruler? >> all right, sir. we'll take care of it. i'll have sog come in and do it. >> three shots.

yes, this is sarge with inmate stafford. over an inch quarter. i asked him to cut his nails and he refused to do so. i asked for assistance to get that done. >> the special operations group sends a three-man team to stafford's cell to clip his nails for him. >> sir, we're cutting your nails, all right? >> you know how many times we have to use force, just as long as you apply with the directions i'm giving you, we don't have to escalate the force. as long as you do what i'm asking you to do. >> it's one of those days.

i can walk. no physical way you can make me cut my nails. prime time. it's going down. >> how you going to cut if i keep my fists? you grabbing me, squeezing on me with handcuffs. >> all you got to do is cut the fingernails. if you want to do it the hard way, we can do it the hard way. >> this is the hard way. you act about harm, you don't want to harm. handcuffs and shackles, try to twist my arm while i'm in handcuffs. now watch. y'all are not making no sense right now. i don't know. i felt something poking my skin right now. you got the taser right on me. what the hell? can you get it off me?

>> with stafford's nails at a compliant nails, the sog officers return him to his cells unsure of when they might see him next. >> just keep from crying. i'm going to laugh. okay. i feel like the joker. this isn't over. this isn't over. >> stafford contemplates his next move. the segregation unit has a new arrival. 24 hours earlier, josh gohr was pulled off his job as a kitchen worker. shortly after picking up a batch of dirty trails outside one of the female housing units. >> i don't know. i was just cleaning the trays, doing my assigned job and seen a piece of paper. picked it up because it

obviously wasn't trash and asked what i put in miz pocket. >> the notice was addressed to my love from wivy. gohr said he has no idea who either one could be but retrieved it outside from his girlfriend, samantha agee. >> i would grab it to help an inmate out. people write to women in jail and stuff like that. i just seen it, oh, okay. >> if it comes through the postal service, because it's legal mail, we cannot stop it but because it came through a food cart, it becomes contraband. >> gohr has now been called to face the jail's disciplinary committee to find out if he'll be assigned to segregation for a contraband note. >> you understand the situation. what am i supposed to do with it? what's the appropriate thing to do? >> to tell the truth. >> he's been in here three times i know of and he's a slickster.

he knows the rules but tries to find ways around it. >> i never read it, i don't know who wrote it. >> you told me it was for me. >> i can assume it was. it's very likely, but do i know for sure? i didn't read it. okay, maybe i do. but am i wrong? >> but gohr doesn't know that confirmed agee wrote the note. >> i said, i don't know who it was for. >> since the violation is minor, confine to agee for six hours. but gohr could face up to 30 days because of his history of rule violations. >> unfortunately when they did the report, they charged him with possession of stolen property. that's why these guys when they do these reports, they need to make sure they charge him with the right charge. it's his lucky day. >> it could be. >> just an oversight of the officer, paid a little bit closer attention, maybe the

supervisor should have critiqued it a little better. >> you want to tell us what happened yesterday? >> there was a note on the tray, sarge. i picked it up. didn't even get to see where it came from. my girlfriend is in this jail. it is a possibility that was from my girlfriend. >> you knew there was a note there. >> not knew it was there coming, no. my girlfriend is in a3m, did i know it was for me? >> it seems strange you are going through these trays that happen to come from this unit and you happen to find a note that was from your girlfriend. >> i've been going through a lot of trays. >> i understand that. but you see what i'm saying? >> sarge, maybe i could have thrown it away. >> your only saving grace in this report and with the reason why you probably aren't receiving much time is because you were charged wrong. if you were charged with

possession of contraband, we would have given you the 30 days. >> about that note thing, united states postal service to the fullest. my mail log is on fire. i get a million letters a day from her. i don't know what possessed her to do that because she knows that would jeopardize me. >> okay, thank you, mr. gohr. >> yes, sir. >> after deliberating, the disciplinary committee decides will not spend time in segregation because it was a bad write-up. >> all the charges were not guilty. >> that's because they messed up the paperwork. otherwise you would have been doing time. >> i know. i got to stop and change my ways, i swear. >> all right. gohr, let's try to stay out of

trouble. >> absolutely will. >> gohr did not get off without consequence. he's been fired from his kitchen job which means he can no longer get glimpses of or pass notes to samantha agee but said he'll find a way to get his job back. >> i was found not guilty. i broke no rules. my whole life, i've been a person to manipulate my surroundings, like, make things work. >> i think he got fired but i'm not sure. we'll find out if he's here for dinner or not. i'll see if he brings the tray for dinner, but if he doesn't come or if i don't have a letter in the trays, i know he got fired. that's pretty much how that will work. >> adding to agee's stress is the suspicion that her friend jessica roberts identified her to officers as the author of the note. >> like, i didn't want to believe it at first because i just didn't think, you know what i mean, she would straight throw me under the bus and let me get run over fwha.

>> samantha felt that i had told on her. and as she put it, snitched on her, yeah. >> roberts acknowledged being questioned about the note but denies being the snitch. >> the sergeant was like, i've already watched the camera and now i want to know who has put the notes in the tray. she put two and two together. i didn't think nothing of it because i didn't snitch on her. i was just, you know, simply told them i didn't do it. >> she was like, agee did it. she writes her boyfriend in the kitchen. i'm pissed to be real honest. i did sit-ups for like 2 hours. my name wasn't on it. josh's name wasn't on it. nobody knew who was writing him. but girls just, i guess get jealous and decide to snitch people out. in jail, you don't really have friends. >> coming up -- >> she was swinging, i'll give her that. >> jessica roberts comes under

attack. and dwayne stafford gets some welcome news. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. it gave me the power to overcome the urge to smoke. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. some people had seizures while taking chantix. if you have any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix or history of seizures. don' take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. i'm a non-smoker, that feels amazing. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you.

inside the sheriff al cannon detention center, unit a1a, disciplinary segregation, not unlike other disciplinary segregation units throughout the nati nation. it's solitary confinement 23 hours a day but in charleston, it's different from all others. it houses both men and women. while women comprise 10% of the total inmate population of 1300, relatively few get into serious trouble. >> we never have more than 3 to 5 females at a time. so to take up an entire housing unit for just females doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense. >> give it to me when you come out. >> we keep the females closest to the officer's desk to monitor

the communication between the females and the males. sometimes you'll have a male or female that you want to come to disciplinary so they can communicate. they have married couples and partners here. >> drives me crazy being in here. >> try to speak to them through ventilation system. >> what are you doing? >> of course. >> or they attempt to pass notes from the unit workers. so they want to keep an eye on that. >> another female inmate is about to enter a1a. >> it was a fight 8:00 a.m. between joshua gohr's girlfriend and another inmate. >> occurred moments earlier. >> i was putting the trays up and when i turn around, she started swinging. >> the victim is samantha agee's friend, jessica roberts. >> she was swinging. i will give her that bah i'm

sitting there and i shoved her back like twice, like, what the held is your problem, samantha and she wouldn't sans me, she just quit. >> i was like, man, listen, what happened? just tell me. she was like, nothing. >> i was like, dude, you snitched me out. >> agee suspects roberts of telling staff she passed a contraband note to josh gohr as she was picking up trays. >> she was like, everybody already knew. and then she turned around and i hit her. >> agee now headed to a single person cell in disciplinary segregation. she was reprimanded one day earlier and assumed gohr would be here as well. >> they try to plan to disciplinary. so i asked her if she came down on purpose to see her and her answer was yes, but unfortunately for them, their plan was foiled because he

didn't stay in disciplinary. >> i tell you i'm allergic to jail. >> gohr was sent back to general population on a technicality when his incident report was improperly written. >> as an officer, you kind of get to read, like, what are you doing? like, her, she's not a disciplinary issue. she never has been. every time she's been here. i know exactly why she was here. >> while agee won't see her boyfriend here, there's at least the chance the unit could be quieter since another inmate is about to get out. >> we got a call for an inmate that's going to be leaving out of the facility. he's getting released, one of our disciplinary inmates. it's called our sog team. it's just to assist us. >> dwayne stafford recently pled guilty to a property crime. three years probation and now is free to leave.

>> let me out. >> get the paperwork. >> yes, ma'am. thank you. he's going home. >> whoo! whoo! >> get out and do good. that's the right thing. and stay out. >> i will. >> am i going to miss him? i guess a little bit. the beating and the banging on the doors. that's my favorite headache from him. >> he would definitely test people and did a lot of things for show. without him being in here, i'm sure some of the other people's reactions to certain things will die down because they won't be able to feed off of him. >> freedom. i've been waiting for it, but you know, like, i'm just going to take the opportunity as it comes to me. that's how it's going to be. and i'm just ready for it, you

know? pretty much ready for it. y'all think i'm ready for it? i don't think so. i'm ready to walk with people with tasers to shoot me. >> stafford is waiting to be processed out but immediate plans are not clear. >> i have to wait until i get out in the front to call, like, someone. like my brother or my mother or my father or like, you know, nephews. somebody. >> is there any chance you'll be back? >> no, never. unless i apply for sog. >> he's gotten into a lot of trouble inside the jail. hopefully he can do right, do the right things outside and stay out and do some good in society. i'm going to oakland, california. i'm going to oakland. coming up -- >> every time the door opens, i

think hi might be there. >> samantha agee longs to see her boyfriend in segregation. >> joshua gohr is busy making other plans.

samantha agee has been 15 days in disciplinary segregation. the bigger disappointment is her boyfriend walked out of the unit mere hours before she arrived. >> when i got here, i asked somebody if he was still in here and they were like, who? the white boy who worked in the kitchen? he said, yeah, like, he left. i said, oh, no. what am i going to do now? >> agee is now on her fourth day in the unit. >> every time the door opens, i think, he might be there.

so everything is like in slow motion and it just sucks not knowing hike what he's doing or thinking. so i wrote him and i was like, you're getting this letter, i'm probably in 1a. he's a very jealous person, so he knows there's a bunch of dudes down here and i'm a pretty little white girl and his girlfriend. he'll be here by tuesday. >> any plans ongoing down to 1a? >> i thought about it. contemplated it several times but it just doesn't work out and if i go, i probably piss someone out for 30 days and then sitting for another 20 days. as of right now with the other things i got going on, i probably just hang out for a minute. >> were you able to check on the halfway house? >> among the other things gohr has going on is trying to mitigate his current shoplifting charge with good behavior. >> i want to try to get accepted

to this program and get in this program. my attorney said the only way i most likely avoid prison again is a diversion program, in this case, drug court. >> gohr's also trying to get his old kitchen job back. >> the job means a lot for a person with my legal situation. by having that job, you receive work credits. there will be applied to your sentence once you receive a sentence. i've been out there headfirst into my addiction. reach out as a sole income, not an honest dollar involved. so i'm looking to aboobtain the help i need. >> meanwhile, gohr got a letter before she was sentenced to segregation. >> she's the reason i make it down to 1a. you know me, can't wait to see it if you're still down there when i go. you know i love you so much, i

go to the end of the world for you and back. love you now always and forever, wifey. she's thinking i'm in lock-up and transferred to see me. i give her credit for being thorough. >> samantha agee would leave segregation without seeing gohr again. agee reached a plea deal with prosecutors to have her first degree burglary charge reduced to second degree. sentenced to four years in state prison. surveillance video saw her. >> i knew if i would go the tv to the dopeman, i could get more drugs. >> agee confessed to burglarizing a home. >> they wouldn't have caught me if i didn't catch my phone. i knew the people. so i was kind of screwed on that. >> while agee took sole responsibility for the crime,

josh gohr now says she was not alone. >> we could be completely honest, we chose to do something to obtain funds involving a burglary and -- >> you and samantha? >> yeah. and we went to a place and due to my negligence, her phone was left outside of the residence. i'd say it probably fell out of the pocket or something, right, in the grass. and it was terrible. and i knew it, i felt it fall. i did. and i searched. i couldn't find it. >> but this past criminal record, the burglary conviction for gohr might have sent him to prison for a longer time full name agee. >> they would have proceeded with the investigation and most likely found prints, not hers. and that would have roasted me.
