an officer having to worry about 180 people possessing weapons on a daily basis. so that's why it's very important for them to be on their toes to be on the lookout for suspicious activity. >> the latest inmate weapon confiscated by officers was found in the segregation unit at the house of correction. >> what makes this significant, obviously, it's a sock. but in the sock he had five double aa batteries. and these double aa batteries are something he can order for his walkman radio through his canteen and he chose to use the batteries in a method that they're not designed do. he would drop them in his sock, tie the sock, now you have an instant weapon. sometimes they spin it or just drop it. would have it in their hand, drop it down, bam. that's not something i would want to get hit in the head with. >> jail officials tied this weapon to one of the newest inmates to arrive at the house.
