one of the inmates here is 24-year-old ahmad lawrence, who goes by the nickname pimp. >> my nickname, pimp, i got that from my big brother and all my cousins by me having a lot of ladies when i was young, when they're girlfriends, you know, that's how i got the name because it didn't really matter what i did or how i did it, i still kept them. >> incarcerated four years ago on a cocaine charge, ahmad is doing time in the working cell block for allegedly selling drugs in prison. >> well, i was in general population i got in an incident. somebody went and told the lieutenant colonel that some drugs were being sold on the compound. they ended up finding me guilty and sent me to extended lockdown and i won my appeal and i come to the working cell block. now i'm doing 90 days and i'll be on the compound soon. >> if and when ahmad earns the right to return to general population, with good behavior he could eventually be placed here, in the prison's most coveted living quarters. >> basically, this is a trustee housing unit, which you see no bars. the inmates have a little more freedom here.
