the county jail is a reminder that crime knows no bounds. >> crimes you thought you got away with come back and bite you in the ass. >> riverhead is one of two jails operated by the sheriff's office. it houses half of the county's 1500 inmates. most of whom are only charged with crimes and are awaiting trial at the resolution of the cases. nonviolent general population inmates are generally allowed out of their cells from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. but that bit of freedom is taken away if they violate rules. they could go on lockdown status in another part of the jail. >> this is what the inmates refer to, and the officers, as the box. it's a disciplinary unit. when you're sent to the box, you're required to stay in your
6:03 pm
cell 22 1/2 hours a day. you're afforded a one-hour recreation period and time to use the phone, take careful personal hygiene, whatever you want to do for your half hour, then you're locked back in. >> inmates sent to disciplinary for fighting could be on lockdown status for weeks at a time. but they're not isolated from others. >> disciplinary housing is not your typical solitary confinement. it's a series of cells. they're right next to each other. they communicate, they talk. when they're out on their break time, they go visit their neighbors. it's not a solitary situation. >> timothy campbell spent so much time in the box he wrote a song about it. ♪ we in the county get in the pop and to the hull ♪ ♪ if you bottle [ bleep ] let's go ♪ ♪ we in the county and we get a pop you got to the hole ♪ ♪ though you got to let them know [ bleep ] ♪

[ bleep ] gets real. not much to do. you brush your teeth, workout and it's all mental. it's all about the 90% is all mental. if you don't have good mental you will lose your mind in this place. >> campbell says he knows only one way to cope. >> i try to have fun. what's this place if you're not trying to have fun. on a scale of one to ten what
6:06 pm
would you rate me? >> i'm not. >> you're not? you know i'm a ten. it's all right. you can't spend 24 hours, seven days a week with a frown on or crying. that is emotionally impossible. >> campbell acknowledges that all too often he has met challenges not through fun but violence. >> 20 years old and i have been through more [ bleep ] than i can remember. you've probably been through more fights than frickin' mayweather. if you met me about two years ago you wouldn't have been able to talk to me. i was so bad with my anger, there were kids i went up to because i didn't like them. i am having a bad day so i'm like you are going to give me your commissary or i'm going to beat the [ bleep ] out of you and throw your head in the toilet and flush it. i've done it to a lot of people, but it catches up to you. it catches up to you. not getting in anymore trouble. that's it. i'm not getting in no more trouble. >> a few days later, campbell
6:07 pm
would find himself in plenty of trouble. according to officer reports, campbell was returning from a visit with his girlfriend and the couple's 15-month-old daughter. as he waited outside the elevator back to his housing unit, the door opened and he encountered inmate jeffrey despeines. >> timothy campbell struck by immate jeffrey despeines, and both began to fight. they ignored all orders and continued to fight. the officers administered pepper spray. officer quinones was able to get control by bringing them to the ground and placing mechanical restraints on him. >> neither inmate was seriously injured in the fight but campbell was treated for a broken pinky. >> he sucker punched me from behind. we fought and then we got maced. we got [ bleep ] with a whole load of mace. worst thing ever happened to me. >> did you sucker punch him? >> i guess you can call it that
6:08 pm
>> how did he respond? >> he was surprised. he was surprised. he didn't like it. >> despeines was charged with criminal possession of a loaded firearm. and reckless endangerment to which he has not pled guilty. he would not specify the cause of the fight. sergeant salvaggio and officer nicholson hope to get to the bottom of it during disciplinary hearings for both men. >> i think it is possibly a gang related thing. campbell is a latin king. despeines is a blood. they seem to have problems at times within the facility. >> fighting with another inmate, breaking the rules. you get a $25 fine. i try to make it worth $25. >> despeines, come on in, take a seat. how do you plead? guilty, not guilty, guilty with an explanation? >> i guess i'm guilty for that one. >> he is latin king and you are a blood.
6:09 pm
>> there's not really no beef between us but it's just a little situation i have. that is what led to the incident. >> why didn't you stop? officer told you to stop, that is it. man, it was over. >> $25 is a lot. i was going to get it regardless. >> you were going to get your money's worth. >> basically going to get your money's worth? okay. >> like campbell, despeines has already been in disciplinary for several weeks due to prior fights and now they will let him know how much more time he will get. >> 60 days on top of what you had, getting out december 29. >> on my birthday. >> is that your birthday? >> yes. >> happy birthday. you think you are going to catch one before then? >> no. >> stay out of trouble. all right? >> thank you. >> stay out of trouble, man. >> now the officers meet with campbell. he could receive more lockdown time for refusing orders to stop fighting. >> the report said it, i got sucker punched. you got to fight.
6:10 pm
what else was i supposed to do? just let him lump me up? i am sick of coming to this hearing room over and over. i'm trying to stay out of trouble. i'm not assaulting people anymore. >> anymore? this time you got assaulted, right? he hit you first anyway. >> me and him had a typical argument. we always have arguments. >> which was about? or you're not willing to say? >> i can't, i can't say. >> the officers decide to extend campbell's lockdown status by another 20 days, but put another 40 days on hold which they can assign if he commits another violation. >> you have to stay out of trouble kid, all right? you know, tired of seeing me, huh? >> i don't want to keep doing this. >> well, you have to try a little harder. >> tuck and roll next time, man. that's all i can tell you. you know? coming up, timothy campbell and jeffrey despeines come face to face, and it's not to shake hands. and -- >> currently i've been incarcerated in this jail for two years.

what's good, bro, how are you? you all right? >> you look like you lost more weight. >> you look ugly. so it doesn't matter. we get to see each other every court date. that was it. when he was on my floor, sometimes we would run into each other every once in a while and see each other briefly. >> when the [ bleep ] did you get so short, bro? >> when did you get so tall? >> you are growing as the time goes. >> you got short, dog. how do you get short? >> when we go to court we are joking all day, talking, reminiscing. >> you don't know what it is like to spend your 21st birthday in jail but you spent your 21st birthday in jail two years ago and 18 inches of hair ago. >> you got jokes. >> the campbell brothers enjoy the limited amount of time they get together in courtroom holding cells it can be a different story when they get out. >> i don't think we will be hanging out no more when we get out. we can't really hang out no more, that's it. every single time we went out together we shot somebody or shot somebody's house or
6:19 pm
whatever or beat somebody up together. i don't like nobody talking bad about my brother. my brother don't like nobody talking bad about me. it creates a bad aura because that is the one-up factor again. we are not good together. we amp each other way too much. we get in way too much trouble. coming up, timothy campbell and jeffrey despeines square off again. this time -- >> headed down to medical to get check out. >> -- several officers are among the wounded. and -- >> it is good to leave the jail. going to have to sit in a cage. >> an inmate labor force benefits a different group of caged residents. managing my diabetes has been a struggle.
6:20 pm
i considered all my options with my doctor, who recommended once-daily toujeo®. now i'm on the path to better blood sugar control. toujeo® is a long-acting insulin from the makers of lantus®. it releases slowly, providing consistent insulin levels for a full 24 hours, proven full 24-hour blood sugar control, and significant a1c reduction. and along with toujeo®, i'm eating better and moving more. toujeo® is a long-acting, man-made insulin used to control high blood sugar in adults with diabetes. it contains 3 times as much insulin in 1 milliliter as standard insulin. don't use toujeo® to treat diabetic ketoacidosis, during episodes of low blood sugar, or if you're allergic to insulin. allergic reaction may occur and may be life threatening. don't reuse needles or share insulin pens, even if the needle has been changed. the most common side effect is low blood sugar, which can be serious and life threatening. it may cause shaking, sweating, fast heartbeat, and blurred vision. check your blood sugar levels daily while using toujeo®.
6:21 pm
injection site reactions may occur. don't change your dose or type of insulin without talking to your doctor. tell your doctor if you take other medicines and about all your medical conditions. insulins, including toujeo®, in combination with tzds (thiazolidinediones) may cause serious side effects like heart failure that can lead to death, even if you've never had heart failure before. don't dilute or mix toujeo® with other insulins or solutions as it may not work as intended, and you may lose blood sugar control, which could be serious. pay just $10 per prescription for 12 months. eligibility restrictions apply. learn more at toujeo.com or call 800-580-3421. also, 9 out of 10 medicare part d patients can get toujeo® at the lowest branded copay. toujeo® helps me stay on track with my blood sugar. ask your doctor about once-daily toujeo®.
6:22 pm
one of the most unpredictable locations of the suffolk county jail's riverhead facility is the booking department. >> this is probably the most volatile area in the jail
6:23 pm
especially because this is where it hits most inmates that i'm locked up. i'm not going home. they are in jail now. that red gate slams behind them, a lot of them get the shiver up their spine and they know this is real. i'm not going home. usually right here as they're getting uncuffed or checked, that's where it goes awry. >> along with new arrestees, dozens of current inmates also pass through the department all day long on the way to or from court. >> this is like the central hub of the building. connected to here is the elevators to get up to the main floors upstairs. basically all movement comes through here. you see kitchen staff come past. it's the middle of the building. it's the heart of the building, so to speak. >> sometimes enemies encounter each other here. surveillance cameras capture jeffrey despeines walking the red line inmates are required to follow. suddenly timothy campbell enters the
6:24 pm
lobby and seconds later, their feud reignites. officers behind the desk are required to wait for backup before attempting to break up the fight. since the booking area has the greatest concentration of staff it doesn't take long before they are all in. >> hold on. turn around. turn around. hands behind your back. >> i got a broken finger. >> you'll have more than that. >> less than a minute after the first punch was thrown they are both restrained and handcuffed. they are placed in temporary holding cells while staff sorts out what happened. >> stay right there.
6:25 pm
>> the same exact kid that wasn't supposed to be here just came in and tried to assault me a second time, so i beat him up. >> despeines is moved into the holding cell next to camp bell. >> the same guys who fought last week. >> i beat you twice [ bleep ] and i'll beat you up the next time you [ bleep ] me [ bleep ]. >> every time we see each other, i don't care how much police is there, i'm going to pop you. let's see how long you live. >> i want to go home, man. i don't want to be in this [ bleep ] place with all these people, man. >> i'm never going to [ bleep ] stop. >> but why? >> no reason behind it. until one of us is dead, no reason. >> despeines suffered a cut lip
6:26 pm
in the fight, but he's not the only one who is injured. >> in the middle of separating the fight a kick or punch landed on the bridge of my nose. the inmates were very combative. when they become aggressive they only see each other and nothing else around them. they don't care about anything going on around them. there was a little bloodshed involved. >> i am heading to medical right now. get checked out. >> while you are trying to gain control of inmate campbell you injured your whatever is hurt and write all the parts that are hurt. this is part of a daily activity here. this happens every day in the jail. there are fights every day that we have to respond to and break up and people get hurt. >> while responding to the fight i somehow got flipped and thrown on my shoulder and my back landing on my right side and right shoulder and right knee. so it happens. it's part of the deal. >> i actually jumped over the wall onto the backs of the
6:27 pm
inmates, and in the midst of the struggle to try to separate the two inmates i felt pain in my shoulder and my elbow. >> we don't think about injuring ourselves when we do it. you can't let it go on. and sometimes in the course of that, the officers wind up getting hurt. coming up -- >> you trying to say it is our fault? is that what you are saying? >> jeffrey despeines places blame for his fight with timothy campbell. and campbell finally reveals what the fights were really about. >> i see him coming through the metal detector and i'm like oh [ bleep ] here it goes. man: proper etiquette is essential for every social occasion. so the the broom said, "sorry i'm late. i over-swept." [ laughter ] yes, even the awkward among us deserve some laughter.

6:31 pm
none of their injuries are believed to be life-threatening. the driver is in police custody. we'll continue to follow that story. for now, back to regular programming. quiet mornings at the suffolk county jail are often interrupted by a familiar sound. just like their neighbors in the small towns and villages on eastern long island, jail officials like their lawns freshly mowed and free of weeds, but the inmates who work as gardeners here must cope with an extra hazard or two.
6:32 pm
>> stay away from the razor ribbon. that stuff definitely hurts you. come on in. you got goggles. >> for these inmates, lawn maintenance is a small part of the vocalsal training they receive in what's known as s.l.a.p., the sheriff's labor assistance program. >> they are taught plumbing, carpentry, basic skills that get them by in a day-to-day basis, and if they excel and are interested they move forward and unions pick them up and try to place them into a work program. >> officer campo is one of the program supervisors. the inmates are all volunteers serving short sentences for nonviolent crimes. >> let's take what we got and get going. they do not get paid. the best part is it gets them outside. that's what they love the best. if they need a haircut or have to get to medical we make sure we speed that up because we go on the road. we do projects offsite as well. >> anthony maines has a dui conviction and other driving
6:33 pm
offenses but he looks forward to the most are the frequent jobs the crew takes on outside of jail. >> it's actually a great feeling. time goes by a lot faster. it's good to be able to work. definitely a good privilege. >> today the crew is headed to a nearby animal shelter where they have been helping out for months. >> they were in disrepair. they had roofs leaking and plumbing that was bad, fence falling down, parking lot that was a wreck. anthony wants to go to the animal shelter and work every day. they treat us very well. they are thankful we came along. it is a win/win for everybody. we're going to take these branches down. anthony, get the loppers. >> if you had seen the shelter before, the difference now is unbelievable. >> pamela green is the shelter's director. >> they love being out here and
6:34 pm
we love having them here. they are projects we really can't afford to do because we are a nonprofit and all of our money goes to the animal programs. >> today we are building a handicap wheelchair ramp. >> a couple of days ago they had a gentleman who lost his dog and him and his buddy came, they were in wheelchairs. this will help out a lot and get rid of stumps and weeds and make easier access for handicap. >> it's a great feeling. it's good to leave the jail and not just sit in my cage all day. you know what i'm saying? >> anthony, come on up. >> maines says equally rewarding is the new friendship he made here with an 11-month-old bulldog named rocket. >> anthony has played with him a lot of times, and he has been on the phone with mom and dad trying to get them here to fill out an application. >> like these boots?
6:35 pm
they have a lot of personality. >> he does. he definitely does. >> he was excited to come out. >> while he hopes to free rocket from his cage full time back at the jail timothy campbell had his own feelings of being caged in. >> i hate the box. there's no wins in this facility. even when you're right, you're wrong. >> campbell has been on lockdown status for most of the past six months. recently he received another 20 days for fighting. with jeffrey despeines. he will soon face the disciplinary board again for a second fight with despeines, one in which several officers were injured trying to break it up. >> when my fellow officers get hurt i'm very concerned. they don't understand when we order them to stop they should stop, because if they don't stop and continue to fight aggressively, then we have to try to control the situation, and we do end up getting hurt almost every single time.
6:36 pm
>> neither camp bell nor despeines have been forthcoming about the cause of the conflict. investigators suspect it has to do with gang rivalries. during his one hour of daily recreation, campbell reveals he fought despeines who is nicknamed jugs, over something else entirely. he sucker punched me. >> one, two, whammy. >> had to do it. >> had to do it because he wanted my red and whites. i told him i wasn't giving it to him. >> red and white outft. >> he wanted yours? >> yeah. >> red and white uniforms are worn by inmates on lockdown status in order to quickly identify them as problematic. another inmate recently left the unit he traded his new set of red and whites to campbell in exchange for camp bell's older set, but despeines has come forward with his own story. >> despeines version is that he struck a deal prior to campbell
6:37 pm
striking a deal, and then campbell kind of intercepted it and wound up getting the new uniform and that's what their fights have been all about. >> i don't want a dirty pair of red and whites. i shouldn't be fighting over a pair of red and whites. i understand that. it's the stress of being here. >> another write-up for timothy campbell three days after we gave him 20 days lock but held 40 days over his head. we tried to give him a break to see how he acted and he got in trouble in three days. >> campbell and despeines will now have another disciplinary hearing with sergeant salvaggio and officer nicholson. >> we are going to do jeffrey first. here we are again. the same guy you were fighting last time. how do you plead? guilty, not guilty, guilty with an explanation? >> not guilty. >> not guilty? you weren't fighting with the guy? is that why you are innocent or
6:38 pm
are you innocent because you met up with him? >> because i met up with him but i was not supposed to meet up with him. >> so that makes it okay. >> it doesn't make it okay. i know that. >> what are you trying to say? it's our fault? is that what you are saying? it's our fault that you fought? you guys didn't get hurt. the officers did. not good. >> my intentions is not to hurt any of you. >> it wasn't an intentional assault on officers but due to your actions and camp bell's actions, officers got injured. makes this thing a whole lot worse. >> despeines is sent to a nearby holding cell while the officers determine his fate. this time it will not just be increased time on lockdown status. it will also carry a greater financial sanction. >> bad part here was more so than the fight the not breaking up. four officers got injured.
6:39 pm
we can charge them $100 for each officer for medical treatment. we can split it two a piece. two for despeunes, two for campbell. >> okay. >> these guys we are going to have to hit them hard on this one. despeines, take a seat. here we are again. this is what we are going to do. on the fight itself is a 50-day lock. not breaking it up is 100-day lock. plus four officers had to go for medical treatment so we are going to split the cost. we are allowed to take $100 for medical treatment for each staff member. you got $200. that's your end. we know you don't have money but if you get any we will be taking it. that's it. stay out of trouble. no fighting. did you get your money's worth this time? >> no. >> no, okay. >> with an additional 150 days
6:40 pm
on lockdown status, despeines will be confined to his cell 22 1/2 hours per day. he will be allowed out for a half hour to shower and make phone calls and one hour of outdoor recreation. >> i'm never getting out the box. >> is it all worth it? >> it's not really worth it, but it happens. >> now it's campbell's turn to meet. >> how do you plead? guilty, not guilty? guilty with an ex-explanation. >> guilty with an explanation. >> i see him coming through the metical detector, i'm like [ bleep ] here it goes. do you want to fight or leave this alone like a grown man and he ran up and swung on me? i can't start taking punches and kicks. i have to fight. >> if somebody comes at you and assaults you that's one thing. when officers are there and tell you to stop that is the time to stop and break it up. >> it's almost like i'm making you look bad every time you give me leeway. >> gave you a suspended sentence three days before this incident. >> i don't know how he came back around me. >> the north lobby is like
6:41 pm
broadway. anybody going anywhere has to go through there. >> absolutely. >> unfortunately, you did cross paths. doesn't make it okay to be fighting. doesn't make it okay to not stop. again -- >> sergeant, i -- >> i'm talking. bad place. last time bad place. up here elevator cage. now north lobby. >> i don't want to keep doing this box time and missing time in my daughter's life over a [ bleep ] pair of red and whites. >> why don't you wait by the elevator. you want to escort him out? >> yes. >> make sure he's secured out there. >> according to timothy he wasn't the aggressor. this is what he's saying. it could be totally different. he could have came out of there and say what's up, you want to do this now? we don't know. i have to go with the facts and the facts are he did fight. they didn't break it up. officers got injured. he did have a suspension. and his history is not good.
6:42 pm
>> there is no wins. i need to go home and never come back to this place. never come back to this [ bleep ] place again. >> i think he gets the same as we did. both guilty of doing the same thing in the same area. >> when my little girl gets older i will be able to explain why she should never mess up and doesn't want to be in the same predicament as i am in. >> coming up -- >> did you cross path with that person that had a fight with your brother, what's going to happen? >> we'll see when it happens. >> an officer attempts to find out if robert campbell is going to retaliate on behalf of his younger brother. and -- >> come here. >> timothy campbell gets a visit from the two people he says matter most. break through your allergies. introducing flonase sensimist. more complete allergy relief in a gentle mist you may not even notice. using unique mistpro technology, new flonase sensimist delivers a gentle mist
