it's helped a helluva lot. i now have a lot more tools to deal with issues that still affect me, a lot of my issues from back then don't affect me anymore. i'm not saying that they are gone. but i know how to deal with them now. >> the reason for the sex offender program is such a high profile issue, and, quite frankly, the other reason is that sex offenders are going to get out of prison anyway. so we -- we are doing our best to rehabilitate them. because it is relatively new, we don't have statistics as far as recidivism rate, but we do know that we're giving them the tools to survive without re-offending out in society. >> it is liberating. i mean, it is like a weight off my shoulders. i'm not hiding anymore. i found out that i'm not the only one. >> historically in all prison settings sex offenders are low man on the totem pole, so to speak. inmates can't tolerate sex offenders.

out, see why he's so angry. be careful. >> how is he acting? >> fine, no problem. >> he's a high-profile case from reading his file. has a lot of problems with outside gangs and inside gangs. there's a lot of concern because a lot of the gang members that he -- the gang he testified against, they are here. so we're going to have to be on our toes once they found out he's here, and keep a close eye on our movement in and out of the unit with him, and make sure he has no contact with any other inmates. >> he's an inmate from central correctional, apa. he assaulted a staff member over there. the officer was escorting him out of his cell with him restrained in the front. the inmate advised the officer that he provided soap inside the

cell. he went back in the cell, and the inmate closed door behind him. pulled the officer in. the inmate closed the door and assaulted the officer. >> this jacob has quite an extensive history. make sure the staff are aware the propensity for this guy to carry out violent acts like that. we need to make sure medical does a thorough check on this individual because the walls have closed in on this guy, and he's a little psychologically challenged right now. he was here for quite a bit of time. went to central because of his psychological issues. so it appears he's still very unstable. you're going to have to determine this individual's state of mind and see where he's at. is he still hostile, is he still wanting to fight? make sure we don't have a further incident. >> inmate jacob chavez agrees to talk to our crew and tell his version of the story. >> all i remember is grabbing him and tying him, don't be disrespecting me like that. and then he said -- i don't remember what he said. i just started -- i started to let him have it, punching, kicking, everything. i let him have it.

he ended up being hurt pretty bad, i guess. basically the officer challenged me to a fight. i said, open the door. you know what i mean? they opened the door. he entered my cell without me being handcuffed. when i was told, if somebody ever goes in your cell like that and you're not handcuffed, you have a right to protect yourself. especially if you know he is in there to cause you harm. doing everything in their power to make life miserable for me. it's already happening and throwing me in the cell. tell me i will be like that for 90 days. >> what cell is this that i'm seeing you in now and why are you here? >> this is a suicidal cell. >> can you tell me why it is better for you to be here than back there in one of the cells? >> because back there, i got to listen to everybody, you know, laughing and joking. watching their tvs and listening to their radios while i'm sitting in the cell with nothing. you know what i mean? the same thing i got in here is the same thing i have over here, you know what i mean? it ain't no different.

jimmy kinslow just recently transferred back to pnm from another prison but he has yet to receive all of his belongings. >> i will open it up. let them see what's in there so they can see it all, you know, visual inspection. >> all right. >> i appreciate they don't touch it. my bag was blessed by my medicine man in oklahoma before it was sent to me. >> okay. >> native american belief is you use sacred herbs for your spirit guides and spirit health. make your prayers be heard in the spirit world is to carry it on the herbs. given to us by the creator. without it you can't do the rituals, ceremonies and stuff like that. can't do the chants. it sanctifies everything. the medicine bag has been especially blessed by the elder and everything.

>> the warden understood it was religious material and thought it might be a bible and didn't understand it was native american religious material. and so i guess he wants it gone through first. i just called the warden now. he doesn't have a problem with you getting it. >> i didn't want all of them. all i wanted was my medicine bag. i got the approval for it. >> okay. >> i need the medicine bag, the sage, the cedar and other herbs i need to do my prayers. a small leather pouch. >> okay. this is what the captain told me now. he will take you over there first thing in the morning but you can't get to it right now. >> i went over there and said right there -- sat right there. it was on the cart. >> he they didn't let you have it then? >> no. officer wouldn't let me have it. he said i don't think you are indian, you know. >> okay. all right. well, i don't see an issue with it. but -- i did call the warden.

warden said okay. >> i just don't see the problem with being able to say prayers, you know. >> me either. me either. maybe i can talk to the manager and, you know, he would have time to have somebody walk you over there. >> if you walk me over there, i'll spread it out. i'll let the officer look at it. >> okay. all right. let me see what i can do. no promises. >> i appreciate it. >> i'll still try. >> just two minutes, i'll be in and out. >> okay. all right. >> for me personally, that's the only way i have found just to even survive in prison. it's become so important. it's just a part of what i rediscovered. a lot of it is a coping mechanism. because you go through all the trauma, you know, of killing innocent people and stuff like that. it's like the prayer tithe offerings you make. each prayer tithe, you make that with the individual prayer to your specific victim and everything.

that prayer is sent to the spirit world and it goes directly to your victim, asking them for forgiveness, stuff like that. that's important. >> i have a question for you on kinslow's religious articles. his native articles. they won't give them to him today. >> why? >> they are saying he needs to go through it and you need to decide what he can and can't have. but it is all sitting there in a small pouch. >> do you want me to double check? >> yes. could you do that, please? he's been here since tuesday and has been asking for it every day. if we could get it to him, it would be a good thing. okay. thanks.
