chilly found out about the incident because a photo was leaked online. >> i went on to facebook and instagram and i seen the incident report and i seen david's picture of the slashing of his face. i was crying, i was upset, i read way called pamela. i started calling the jail and they would i can me information. all types of things go through your mind like what is happening, why than a calling. this is the incident report with his information and photo on facebook and on instagram. this went viral. they're supposed to be protecting him as well as protecting other inmates. they did not to their job. and for all purposes they have broken.

about it. but because are selling for 20 million is there getting attention. >> but we did know about it. the politicians have talked about it you think at the very basis that someone in prison would not have to fear for their life from other inmates. at the same time, the job of a prison guard is difficult. they have to keep their prison populations at bay because you have a lot of violent, bad people out there. >> this can't be that hard to sell. it's in a closed area and you have cameras. >> visited in manhattan. it's a place where parents bring their kids. it is family-friendly. back in the day is considered a game of luck. >> i had to google it to see what it look
