>> good thing we did a good job on it. >> mm-hmm. >> despite the differences in both age and race, cell mates scott parker and alvin mchellon have come to think of each other more as family than friends. for the past few months, they have shared a small cell in the close management or confinement unit at the santa rosa correctional institution. but mchellon may soon be leaving for the general population compound. the prison's internal classification team has recommended the transfer. but it must still be approved by a state classification officer. >> today is supposed to be the day ms. beasley comes through, let us know if we're going to the compound or not. it can go either way. i know i did everything i'm supposed to do. you know i ain't been in no trouble, keeping a clean record, keeping self occupied whatnot. i'm looking for it to go favorably but if not i got to be ready for it.
