they don't give a damn if you did the georgia nut. low in if you can beat a good beating there's a. good line of. god too and i have. had a good car wouldn't. talk down to two thousand ford and about a. course or just the courthouse. stairs. people to save leaders from saying man your parish. parish like coming back intact because they have that jim crow mentality we all had. the african american is less of a man especially the male is less of

a man. he wants to change that. the federal investigation is the first step. but eventually in prison declines all interview requests. the sheriff isn't interested in uttering any questions. or incarceration rate is twice as high as the us average ten times. which makes it a world record. of the sixty four sheriffs manages his own prison. they are elected by fervent supporters. any explanation to anyone. for every prisoner of the state pays twenty four dollars a day. the sheriff used that money as they see fit. to meet one of these powerful men next stop the forced parish one hundred thousand residents in cajun country. in. really good work this

morning the sheriff's asking about any you come as. and we have no one to process this morning right how many have you process so for us it's ok and how many have left the process just two more are they warrants or arrest arrests. and so person comes here in the booking officer takes over that points to start booking anyone this morning. doesn't get a minute. ok. step out for me question back on this want to go. down is out. into the rest i'll visit lasted for two hours and in that time twelve people but in kosovo i took every cell is occupied and to take out one cover.

every day our jill is beyond full we have a capacity of two hundred forty three beds that we can house here in this facility and at any given day we have between seventy five and a hundred twenty five inmates that are in other jails across the state of louisiana . i'm sure we don't want her around town. it's in the catwalk or the corridor in the old analogy you know the only way the correctional officer has access to it was in washington perimeter next. to the system has one twisted detail funding is based on occupation. said the sheriff compete to collect the most state of every prisoner means cash. here's the uniqueness of the sheriff in the louisiana is that we are a separate constitutional unit of local government we are a ton of most from this. and we're autonomy from other branches of government we

have our own budget we are able to raise our own funds we can buy lease purchase property we can keep self generated revenue the next biggest area our responsibilities of running the jail the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king as any job there is that's elected i love it so much of a dinner for twenty five years. it's the best job in the weld but it requires the sheriff to constantly find new clients. it was stored here with a bigger targets was warning or through force. alan evans expertise in a resting multiple people. that could be. up to twenty years of patrol duty and was she to perish he

knows the district well. fortunately. you know some days we only restore five some days we'll raise tuner poil you know just don't arceo. you're going to drink you know it just becomes a go when the weather gets better like being with us bertie and saudi. usually going to risk more people. i think it was fourteen people right up here in this intersection i rolled out the movers fighting one on their way round them all up we're talking about are going to jail. us by the most auguries department months or give them a lawful order to. disperse. they wouldn't aspires that we just start arresting people in bali everybody took over. so we ended up before taking a. kid allan sets a personal arrest record the council housing area where rent as love.

well these folks down here they won't. they won't tell you the only way that your book goes somebody so you can do it go think that. they're what they call a snitch. talked to him and people out. there when you come in here where years would bring several officers that were coming to work so the. first better crowd reported or here's this a lot of disturbances. people. years where it's drug related they are going over that. the suspects and then taken to which it's a prison. and when they get there they're rented to the sheriff. don't want to go make a tour go see what it's like around and say oh the well don't warms like this is

who it ok you really. have it we'll show you around a bit. one thousand one hundred fifty prisoners are living in very basic conditions this is the way all over set up here you know our whole like to about fifty in each one. and they do have a. race and then put back to the south they don't go anywhere i mean they are there here twenty four seventh's. jay russell has just begun his second term as sheriff he knows prison regulations well he wrote them in his absence only one person can make decisions prison warden pat johnson. and usually there's someone out here would think but if not he can sit right here. and he can watch the whole. all for. when there's only

four cameras and you know him so he's got to get out and he knows what's going on at all times just from sitting here. there are many cameras and only one god monitoring two hundred prisoners. beds and laid out closely there is no privity or. will. never want to remand prisoners sleep beside convicted felons. say russell is full of ideas about how to reduce costs. where people would go visit him between glass talk all these you know but over time technology has taken over that now we just do it on like i said you know b.t.o. visitation i don't know what comes in it well we don't have to search for meaning more on saturdays and sundays and it's cost effective not to be held out that may and how we're doing all right which saves a lot of money and loan. maximum profit at any cost the sheriff will stop at

nothing teach him the prisoners are put to work in here. you know they're getting about forty percent off what they're making but yet they're paying for their incarceration ok so it's a huge deal with those monies like i said do go back in the public say they go to law enforcement they go to our equipment or card salaries things of that nature so there are actually paying us to put them back into the guy if they if they occur if they re a ruffian if. we say all three should have used the poems here we have just three back here so we did the remodel took all the walls out so you just got one clear look only there to i'm going to pay. the sheriff maintains a relationship with every prisoner. no more you give back or no power for. our family my family and all around us twenty eight days twenty

years i have been locked up twenty. three to get home it's ok. to. cut off. a plate for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside guides. football isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money killian erroneous and spending to get to twenty million. it's an experience like nothing else i want to

do because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy was great so what chance with. the base it's going to. in two thousand and sixteen the panama papers shocked the world with a tax haven the secrets to trillion united states dollars passed through most of our conseco in the amount of time that we had that then in the panama papers exposure that's what it shows a lot of money it really is. journalism it's a fact of journalism looking at things that people want to keep secret and asking why would they want to keep these things secret. millions of most fun psycho documents were examined. the all the people which basically have tried to get an advantage out of this sort of newspaper. and

probably other politician which were tough attacking other politicians the media would point to find their targets such as the kings of morocco and saudi arabia the president of argentina several prime ministers. and russian president vladimir putin of course. oh my god i've had so i have sued so many newspapers for defamation some things don't just happen by chance it was very striking there were no one america single special good ole lot of people from the brics countries specially brazil russia and china that this special project reveals what was missed in the media coverage. the panama chronicles. a batter sudden passing i've only just learnt you worry yourself in taking your

last bang turn. here at us we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry family so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on. but then my feeling starting to change you talked about more like it was again still some are fond of you know those that didn't like to question our ark and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral in the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this week like to. speak to you now because there were no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its make. up.

the. bases of the most profitable inmates there are awaiting release to work outside the prison but they return at night first manufacturing jobs or just it just depends on where they knew where they need to be in the media is ok and once we have built jobs we take them to they pay a percentage of their salaries for their state for their baby for their housing for their transportation for their meals for all of that they go back to into the department to go into the chairs up so it's very profitable and that was faked ok. these hundred eighty two million mason net profit us about a million dollars a year ok profit and once everything's paid for everything. you can get the sheriff doesn't want to lose out on this lucrative business. it.

deserves a chance yeah it's out there it's a nasty little you be sure you know side of it for amateur radio you know they are it is crazy now and then. i wake at the coffee later on. many louisiana residents have been to prison. they are two for two and a half yes frank was in custody for a robbery he was involved in. any one on the street even in front of their own house is under suspicion really really did they all run the risk of being checked yeah and they go to want to. you know they don't get the real thing. is talking about the police who patrol the area at walking pace.

that love. to call it was video of people in the street. that would be seen at a cost is a lot of really your people in the street so yes there were shooting video. i was picked up. once then little released. was picked up again. from. i was here. and. the stone i didn't see none. came and. so then my lawyer. didn't mention anything about ted to distinctive features he said no so. so you go on mark good point on the pits and. he said that he didn't see

anything as we had ever made a pharmacy and he went to the store earlier. and then later on. to have years later i was released. two and a half years in custody made the twenty six year old father of five write rap songs . songs about life for louisiana prisoners. flee. to conditionally were. showered dollar to much very cold showers. you know. they were there are so many innocent people because nobody paid attention you know

like. no you know voice would be going over. to me as a chain of command you know our stars which were lost for sinister did take those million. from there you know they all worked together and i mean of of nobody could come and see was going. to get away with. this. franks is not an exceptional story. louisiana was late to abolish slavery but african-americans still had to fight for their rights. a cute guy the toll cute guy to hear. it was me and one nine hundred sixty three that was me. fifty four years ago. that was me. i was one of them who led to demonstrations

and it was met by people who would guns in and all of the stuff that people had in middle sixty's to stop african-american kids from demonstrating from seeking now dance civil rights. after years of political acts. calvin johnson became the first black judge in louisiana. he's often dealt with sheriffs. they are words i can use to to describe what i feel about that. but then you would have to cut those words out of this interview. because lavery had indeed the way to keep people in slavery was to use the justice system and they fixed laws such that the newly freed people for misleads would be put back in jail and then be forced to go back on the plantations and work it's not that

they are. a mean people of bad people it's it's that they are as much a a for lack of a better word victim of the system as the people who are in the jails of victims of the system because we are a poor state and we have use all kinds of means a ways to to fund our sales so the sheriff in those places all using that as a means to fund. the sheriff's self in this and was needs to operate when he's using it for that purpose and the louisiana law the third time he did one of those things i just described you could go to jail for life. i would not do. that.

steve exemplifies the absurdity of the system in two thousand and seven he was arrested for driving under the influence in prison he learned that he was a chevy positive. didn't want to spend the money on. all the extra officers because i was only inmate that was going to go to the hospital. they felt like i would then important. yet when i was almost dead they they sent me if they would say me the hospital sooner. then that. the infection. there was. would probably wouldn't even be in their spinal fluid build up my spine or column got out of the membrane kavi pushed my brain up and was pushing forward on the trying to push it through my face . as i reminded her was about to pop out of sockets the piece of the optic nerve on

the back side as i'm permanently damaged. was in the hospital and they tell me that i was a job the positive. told and they must have somebody else's records confused with mine. because i'm not positive and they said yes you are. time. yeah. we need to talk about everything. no three no come on last and. only me and. steve returns to prison but his treatments didn't begin until months later thanks to social workers like down stanley prisoners can hope for medical care as a social worker to figure out how to get that medication since you and a list of. who say they will do a chevy medication in

a blister pack. according to the sheriff's twenty four dollars per prisoner per day isn't enough to pay for hiv treatment louisiana was very odd compared to the other states it was very clear that we had a very big problem with our parish and city jails providing h.l.v. medication treatment to the inmates it was crystal clear you consider the culture of medication. i could imagine there's a lot of h.r. be proud of inmates there or not getting treatment. the old prison of new orleans is finally in the past it was one of the was just in the united states. the new prisoner looks like an office building not even inside it's very different. than our idea of our condition hypertension bleeding disorder and kidney disease you know ma'am have you ever been exposed to. any venereal especially transmitted

disease now around on a time from our. health questionnaire is a brand new concept in louisiana prisons. the prison is proud of it but the procedure is still in its trial phase. it's not the sheriff but a prison spokesman who receives us. well the budget has changed it used to be based on what we called a per d.m. meaning that we would receive a certain amount from the city which supplies our budgie for the state when we had stayed in maids of so many dollars per inmate. that system we no longer use we received a budget just like many other agencies too and so we must operate within that budget to. take care of all of our operations here under the old

system there was an incentive to have more inmates because the more you have the more money get. outdated and inhumane. and unambiguous indictments of the state's other prisons. with its new system new orleans wants to set a positive example but with a creative president. in a state with established traditions independent parishes and old awful show us. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. more some who want to be reps

are. actually going to be pressing this is what will the forty three of them or can't be good for. i'm interested always in the waters and the how. question. when gold make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the room in clusters to protect themselves. with the flame and merry go round lifts and be the one percent. whole middle of the room six. billion real news. is a civilization just a tiny bit more advanced than we are that they can already pick up jerry springer

or any other sitcoms interview shows the nightly news they see what we're doing to our planet you know it isn't really a very pretty picture and so in addition to sending this chaotic message is that we used to communicate with one another we want to send a clear signal to the extraterrestrial that there's also some rationality on the world. los angeles the city of luxury and fame but also an alarming number of people living in the streets . the simple fact in l.a. he's there's just not enough shelter even if people on the streets right now decided to come in there's nowhere to come in it's been a struggle. this man phoned his own response of the problem and constructed dozens of tiny homes for people in need of shelter when you have nothing and nowhere to go. you know having something like this may as well be

a castle but do the authorities accept such solution tiny house on a city parking space is not a solution her off to someone wanted to ring the site otherwise. it'll be a free for all there a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. russian athletes taking junk china lympics remains controversial what awaits the olympians in south korea and more important what awaits them after the games. hey everybody i'm stephen bob. taft hollywood guy you know suspects every proud american first of all i'm just george washington and r.v.'s to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru just a little bit different i'm not
