correctional institution correctional facility in danbury, connecticut. i have worked with many men and women who are returned citizens, like me, who want to get back on our feet, and reclaim our rights to citizenship, and to make positive contributions to our communities. our experiences are essential to understanding the reform needed in the criminal justice system so it will provide for public safety in a way that is legal, and humane, and sensible. that is why i am here today. women are the fastest-growing population in the american criminal justice system. their families and communities are increasingly affected by what happens to women behind bars. according to the bureau of justice statistics, 63% of women in prison are there for a nonviolent offense, many are incarcerated due to substance abuse and mental health issues, which are overwhelmingly prevalent in prisons and jails. the rate of sexual abuse and physical violence that women experience prior to incarceration is staggering. female prisoners suffer these problems at greater rates than male prisoners, and these experiences are relative both to their crimes and incarceration. these issues are not being adequately addressed by the bureau of prisons. the research on criminal justice involving women and girls shows that the risk factors i mentioned require different approaches to reduce women's recidivism and allow for successful reentry. this is not unlike findings in fields like health care where it shows that women experience heart attack systems differently from men and their treatment needs differ. this understanding has saved women's lives. the bureau of prisons should adopt gender responsive correctional approaches that interrupt cycles of unnecessary suffering. states like washington provide a roadmap to do this successfully. when i was locked up in danbury, i knew women trying to raise their children during brief reunions in the visitor's room while fending off sexual harassment, and struggling with addiction, and trying to get a high school education so that when they got out they stood some chance of surviving despite their felony conviction. i saw women denied necessary medical care and women with mental health issues wait for months to see the one psychiatrist who was available for 1400 women. that is unimaginable in a system where at least 65% of women experience some kind of mental illness. equally shocking were the mandatory reentry classes inmates took to prepare to leave prison. i attended one on housing which was led by a man who worked in construction in the prison. the mostly poor and overwhelmingly minority women in the class wanted to know how someone with a felony con

corrections officer at the baltimore city jail. >> i had people from the neighborhood that become correctional officers, and you have inmates who become correctional officers. >> an institution recently overrun with sex, drugs, and corruption. >> what happens? >> it really blossomed out of control in 2004 when the state started hiring 18-year-olds. that is crazy how can you put an 18-year-old who doesn't have any experience in life and you put them on the section of 120 seasoned inmates and expect in a nothing is going to happen to that child. >> hiring male and female officers as young as 18 was to take applicants willing to take low-paying jobs. but critics say that it backfired. that the younger cos were inexperienced, untrained, and vulnerable. >> the veteran inmates, they were licking their chops. they were seeing this innocent 18-year-old, and they would eat them alive. they would manipulate them, have sex with them, bringing things in. and then it became a money-making operation. >> the gangs were making money inside the jails. >> oh, they were making a ton of money. it evolved. >> following a year-long investigation that involved wiretaps and surveillance, in in 2013

this past saturday, corrections officers at the western correctional institution in cumberland, marylanded a suspicious car in a public road outside the state prison complex. officers confronted two men with the vehicle and arrested them. that's when they found the contraband and the drone. and a connection to an inmate on the inside. >> upon the arrest of the two men with the drone, that inmate's contraband was discovered. >> reporter: charges are expected against the inmate and the two men with the drone. this is still under investigation so there's not a lot they can say. i'm derek ward in jessup, maryland. >>> all new on "nbc 10 news at 5:00" pennsylvania's top prosecutor takes her spot at the defense table. >> she made a memorable entrance. what attorney general kathleen kane did that had many doing a double-take. >>> i'm tracking showers and thunderstorms approaching the area. i will show you the timing and nice weather later this week. >>> plus, it's been just over a year since she was seriously hurt in a crash that killed his friend. tonight, congratulations are in order for come

this past saturday, corrections officers at the western correctional institute in cumberland, maryland, noticed a suspicious car on a public road outside the state prison complex. officers confronted two men with the vehicle and arrested them and that's when they found the contraband and the drone and a connection to an inmate on the inside. >> upon the arrest of the two men with the drone, that inmate's cell was searched and contraband was discovered. >> reporter: charges are expected against the inmate as well as the two men with the drone. officials say this is still under investigation so there's not a lot they can say but they do think they nipped it the bud. i'm derrick ward in jessup, maryland. >>> that break from the 90s sure didn't seem to last all that long. the heat and humidity came back in force. doug, you told us this was coming all the way back on friday. we got any storms heading our way? >> we got a couple of storms but nothing severe. i also told you on friday that this would be the one day we saw temperatures back into the 90s, then we go right back down into the 80s

whether they are -- >> and this involves private sector as well as public sector institutions; is that correct? >> that's correct>> where you find the best practices going from? doctor hassell was talking about going to the private sector. where are we finding the best practices today? private or public sector? >> it is a combination of both. we will look at the private sector. that often does not happen as a 1st reaction. the department of defense my centers for disease control, nih are outstanding facilities doing cutting-edge work which have risks, places where best practices and not best practices will occur because of the broad range. >> i have additional questions that i was a bit for the record later. >> the gentleman is recognized for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. appreciate you being here. i am sure you are having a blast. it is frustrating for me to see what is taking place. to here you guys say you have protocols. it is hard for me to follow this. is it the practice of the dod to send out a death certificate with select agents when they leave. >> it has been. >> it has been? how long has t

correction. emily: we have been following several ipos. do you see the same trends happening in the public market? >> the public markets are more quickly correcting than the private markets. they see cyber institutions coming into the market and they know there is a huge demand for cyber solutions. at some point, the reality sets in. there is no silver bullet to the problem. the company going public today are companies that were invented 10 years ago. the problems they were solving back then are not the problems that need solving today. back then, security companies were bolding perimeters around networks. if you look at palo alto networks, it is all about building the firewall, checking them out before they come in. the problem today is not the generic malware that affects everybody. the problem is those targeted attacks that work their way through your network and attack the crown jewels of a business or agency. in this new world, the perlmutter is not really relevant. the companies going public today are solving the old problems, not the new ones. until we see a new wave of companies go public based on the new technologies being invented here, today, i don't think we will see the solutions to the bigger problem in the market. what are the hot investment opportunities for you, if you are looking to solve the problem, what kind of technology is that? we are looking for companies that are not building a perimeter, but understand that you have people moving through the network. how you find human-driven attacks already in your network trying to find your crown jewels. we are looking at companies that are addressing new classes of vulnerabilities, like the ones that exist on industrial equipment. the agreement that drives climate systems, electrical utilities, nuclear facilities, water plants, medical equipment in hospitals. all of that equipment is vulnerable to cyber attack, as the people here are demonstrating. who is coming up with solutions to those problems? emily: what should we be scared of? we are talking about hacking at tesla, banks, critical infrastructure. i think critical investiture has to be at the top of the list. emily: everyone agrees the systems are vulnerable, but it has not happened. i wonder if there is some fear mongering going on? i have been investing in security for about .2 years. all i can say -- 22 years. all i can say is when the security community identifies a large vulnerability, the initial reaction among the mainstream is that is not really happening, you are fear mongering. it is only a matter of time before those liabilities are exploited. whether you are talking about the ability for people to get into your computer or your mobile phone, or the devices in your home, at some point, if there is a profit to be made, if there is a political statement to be made, a geopolitical advantage to be had, those vulnerabilities will be exploited. emily: you cofounded and incubated three security companies. with the ceo of fire, he sees a lot of m&a happening in this space. meg whitman sees a lot of industry consolidation and believes that this is a prime target. what do you see? m&a has to be the primary means of exit and growth for companies in this space. the security market is different from other technology markets. routers orink about databases or microprocessors, those companies were tried to solve very thorny problems, and what's they did, you kind of solve the problem. the security space, there is no such thing as a mature solution. you constantly have people on the other side who are rendering your solutions obsolete. any mature solution by definition is obsolete. the big companies with distribution abilities, like palo alto networks, they have the advantage of salespeople talking to the customer, the advantage of that access to the market, but they need new technology. then you have all the startups developing new technology and they don't have access to market. so there is a constant consolidation that has always happened in the industry and always will. emily: david cowan, thank you. we will have some of the most famous hackers coming up through the day on television from devcon. -- def con. betty: thank you, emily. still ahead, susan lyne was a top executive at abc. now she holds titles at gilt groupe and aol. what does she make of how the markets crashed media stocks this week, and how is aol managing under verizon? ♪ betty: welcome back to the bloomberg market day. let's go straight to ramy news ono for the big the day. we have a couple more hours to get out of the red but we probably are not. the seventhown for straight day in a row, the nasdaq and s&p down for two days. the s&p down nearly .7%. the nasdaq and tech shares down .7% as well. let me show you some of the biggest leaders and the laggards . mostly we are talking about laggards. energy is down the most, 1.2%, followed by materials, 1.03%. the energy sector yesterday was the biggest leader and now it has turned around for the other corner. now let's look at some individual stocks, and some of those falling are these. consol energy down 6%. eog resources down 4.3%. that is your to date down 18%. the company will halt growth as the price of oil has fallen. was $5.3e last quarter million versus $706 million a year ago, because of all that oil oversupply. marathon also down 3%. take a look at the oil price. down by just over 1%. $44.18. headed for its sixth week of losses as we head into the weekend. opec's biggest producers are still doing a lot of oversupply. it turns out the five-your average is 100 million barrels higher. finally, treasuries. this is the two-year. i want to bring this up because of what is happening with payroll data. shorter-term treasury prices are falling because of the jobs number that came out at 215,000. investors thinking the fed is likely to raise interest rates in the near-term, maybe as early as september. betty: that is what investors are betting on, thank you. in may, verizon bought aol for over $4 billion in one of the last conventional media unions we have seen in the last few years. they also made acquisitions of their own along with some private investment. with me to discuss media and her susan lyne, the former abc and martha stewart executive, now a member of the gun group and bbg ventures, which invests in women-led companies. media, let's into talk about how bbg ventures will exist under verizon. >> we do not see it changing. for years now, aol has been very focused on women's leadership and on getting more women involved in tech. this was just one more of those initiatives. we launched about one year ago. we invest in women-led tech startups. we thought it was a huge opportunity because the vast majority of venture capital, more than 90% of all venture dollars, go to guys. betty: man they are made by guys. >> yet, women are the key consumers online. they are the largest user base for all the fastest-growing parts of the internet. we make or influence 85% of all purchases. it made good sense to us to go where the other money was not, to go after this new generation of young women who are building companies that are solving everyday life problems. betty: may not have gotten the access to capital. is verizon largely leaving you alone, are they giving you support, any money? >> it is such a early days. the end ofowwow at the month to get all of venture groups together. certainly, they have been very supportive. betty: you mentioned the consumer part of it, women being huge consumers. are you looking at mostly e-commerce companies? we are seeing marketplaces, commerce companies, media companies. we are seeing companies that are services built on mobile. that is a very big area. people building on the installed base, and on the hardware. mobile first. lots of mobile first companies. betty: i heard about this in san francisco recently -- hop, skip, drive. for ally, uber mothers. >> it is ridesharing for kids. when you think about a mom who works, living in los angeles with three kids, with different afterschool programs, nice to be here and there. and saw a beautiful market they have built a great product, which has been embraced almost immediately. what they have done is make sure all the drivers have five years of childcare experience, safety programs, they fingerprint all of their drivers. so it is highly secure. betty: ud here about parents using uber, but there is a fear factor. not when kids are six or seven, that will not work. betty: i have the same issue, i have two kids. i have been able to get away with putting them in the same thing all the time but pretty soon they are going to like different things. we are going to take quick break. we want to talk to susan about some of the media stocks. what a terrible week for these companies. ventures. of bbg maybe wall street could not bear the loss of jon stewart. hammerednies have been -- media companies have been hammered this week. ♪ toty: before we get back media stocks, let's go to jon stewart who signed off of "the daily show" last night. one surprise was stephen colbert. not asking forre this, but on behalf of so many people whose lives you have changed for the past 16 years, thank you. me now i believe -- correctg -- your line is, we'll be right back. betty: an emotional jon stewart. the cameo was among the highlights during his hour-long farewell show. there are all of the alums paying tribute to 16 years of satire. even bruce springsteen provided the music. stewart promised the reset he would that be fading away. susan lyne is with me, long-time media executive. you watch this. so fantastic. what a great way to end a terrific run. betty: 16 years. and interesting, that it came at viacom gotn clobbered, and also disney and fox, any broadcast company got hammered. why? >> traditional broadcasters did. there was nothing shockingly new here, nothing that people did not realize was going on. everybody assumed, of all the cable channels, the one that was the safest was espn. the fact that they have lost the bellwether. from that, people made a bunch of assumptions. they are going to start losing affiliate revenue, subscribers could go down further. not just for espn, but for cable network. starz y
