holloman and wright were taken from their cells in housing unit number two and moved to administrative segregation, where they were locked down without their tvs, forcing them to miss the super bowl. the next day lieutenant jim fox, the prison's gang intelligence coordinator, took over the investigation. >> hey, little. hey, can you go down and pick up inmate holloman for me out of segregation? bring him to my office. we're probably unique in how we deal with the gangs out here. we've accepted the fact that there are going to be gangs and there's nothing we can do about it, so we try to control, you know, what they do. and we use the leaders a lot to control that. most of our leaders here have done a lot of time in our maximum security facility. they don't want to go back. and we hold that over their head. we tell them to keep their people in line or they're the first ones that are going to go down, because we know how gangs work. we know this gang member isn't going to do anything unless he's got it cleared to the top. come on in, have a seat. so you want to give me your story? >> well, i mean, t

dorm, they're going to make sure the ring leaders of the cell, they will be returned to administrative segregation, and not be allowed to return to that dorm. >> now they got us laid out -- >> it ain't right, for real. >> that is how i feel. >> these inmates are obviously still agitated, but as of right now everything has gone the way we planned it. >> officers have removed a number of inmates they suspect have rushed the door, to isolate them in the prison cells in administrative segregation for further questioning. the inmates remaining in the dorm are placed on 24-hour lockdown. among them is brian edmond, sr. >> i just had a rough life, my whole 36 of living. i was doing good in school, i played basketball, as and bs, and chose the wrong route. this is where it landed me. >> mr. brian edmond sr., let me look at the charges. sodomy, persistent felony. he was sentenced to 30 years. >> having been sentenced, edmonds now awaits transfer to prison, a place he is familiar with. he has been there on three separate occasions, serving a total of 14 years. >> tired of being in this jail. here. go to my

we will probably put him on administrative segregation for security in a segregation tier. number eight, all right, so i'm going to make the move now. all right, bye. we're going to take it to the next level and start cuff and shackling these guys. we will identify the guys fighting and keep it going. some bloods and crips want to stay in the background. those are not the ones we're going to cuff and shackle. the leaders like cox who says it will be on every time he sees a blood we'll put in cuffs and shackles. we will probably put five or six out. cuff and shackled everywhere they go and escorted. we send a message to them that we are not going to tolerate what is going on inside the jail. >>> coming up, nicholas cox is housed next door to a 16-year-old crip. >> he look up to me so i be cool now. >> and -- >> one, two, three. one, two, three. >> two. >> a group of officers tries to reach young inmates before it's too late. these days families want to be connected 24/7. that's why at comcast we're continuing to make our services more reliable than ever. like technology that

. >> what about the wilson administration? he segregatedvants. >> during the wilson administration they still had segregation but wilson was a southerner. there are a lot of reports of him celebrating the southern food cooked by white house staff. i don't know about interaction between wilson and those others. there was more during the harding administration. >> the harding administration did what? >> there seemed to be a feeling of camaraderie and harding was really big on waffles. he loved waffles. the cook that would make these waffles was celebrated in newspaper articles. her name was alice howard. don't waffle on waffles. he waffled in a good way as a president. >> a simple question. you know if daisy bonner and mrs. nesbitt ever met? that is one question and 2, i haven't read your book yet. mrs. nesbitt's dismissal was, i believe, by the next administration. expand on that a little. >> i do not know if they met. i haven't found a record of that. i just don't know. for the second when it was over something silly. the first lady, mrs. t

[laughter] that was just the final blow and was gone a short time after that. >> that is a great question because after that to become maitre d and another guy who serves to get prominences the white house and then becomes of the treaty later. that was the event over a stick of butter. >> the chief of -- that position is it tenure or is it carried on?. >> day serve at the pleasure of the president so typically in the white house kitchen usually the executive chef for the pastry chef but what has happened

context, we tend to segregate our convicted terrorists and use especially administrative measures. and that tends to work. i would agree with robinthat the numbers are smaller. i would mention a public policy question we grapple with. the average prison sentence for an americanized recruit is 13 years, we've had about two folks that have already been released. we're going to have to grapple with a large number ofamericans who were arrest ford isis-related activities that are getting out of jail in the not too distant future. you talk to the bureau of prisons or department of homeland security, their eyes glaze over and it's incumbent on us to roll up our sleeves and figure this out. >> the chair recognizes the gentleman from south carolina, mr. duncan. >> i thank the gentleman from texas for holding this hearing and the gentleman from california, it's a broad topic. i don't think we're going toget to all the areas of discussion in this one hearing, i hope we'll do itagain. my concern has been isil operatives infiltrating the muslim migration into europe that we saw last year, last

segregated bike lane — all 80 metres of it. the council says there will be more safe routes and denies its cycling targets are unrealistic. as the administrationat infrastructure interventions we need to make across the city to enable the transit of people on bikes into the city centre and across. so more walking, more cycling, more buses — we hope. anything else? ah, yes — the cardiff underground. it opened two months ago. we are proud to announce the cardiff underground is officially...an april fool! the man behind the prank and this map agrees that cardiff needs a better transport network. it is a fantasy, but if it existed it would be amazing. cardiff is growing so we need a massive improvement in infrastructure. i'm worried about suburban development because they are expanding quickly and we might have to suck up. there we are losing a little bit of green land, but i feel sorry for those people who will be living in these neighbourhoods without the infrastructure and public transport to get around cardiff. traffic is so bad on the roads already, what will it be like coming in in ten years? rail commuters are well aware of the pressure alr

segregation after serving only 10 of his 15-day sanction. >> i filed an appeal and got it overturned by the administrative captain.t my way. i mean, he overturned it because he felt like i didn't do anything wrong other than defend myself. >> but with no money in his debit account, kelly only receives one of the complimentary indigent packages. >> bar of soap, deodorant, envelopes. because i came off of lockup, i didn't have time to call my family or whatever to put money in my account. they supply you with envelopes, toothpaste, deodorant, things of that nature. this is not going pose a threat. this is nothing really you can eat. i mean, they're not going to come after soap, toothpaste, and deodorant. they will probably come after chips, cookies, honey buns, things of that nature. >>> due to mature subject matter, viewer discretion is advised. >>> why y'all take me off my medication? the doctor prescribed to me -- >> an agitated inmate takes severe measures to get staff's attention. >> where's the lieutenant at? i don't believe this. mayberry just swallowed one of the arms off his eyeglasses. >> the doctor says t

administrative seg sergeant. i don't want to put you in a pod, okay. what i really want to do is put you in a segregationody can get at you. i have an inmate where somebody has beaten them up once before. it gets all over this place like wildfire and then whatever pod i put you in is a potential for you to get hurt again. and i don't want that to happen, okay? so, where you'll go from here is probably segregation unit, protective custody. okay? i have no other choice for you. very good, sir. >> you're taking this all pretty calmly. i mean, you come to jail and get beaten up, you're waiting to go to prison. how are you being so calm about this? >> much of it comes from my faith. it's kept me -- kept me very calm and peaceful. i've been going through this process. my family has also made a huge impact. i have six brothers and sisters and two parents who love us all very deeply. the last thing my mother said before i went in to be sentenced was, i'll love you no matter what. and she gave me a hug and said, good luck. so, i do want to make something of myself. i don't want to be a sex offender and that's the
