that s a long-term prison. in greenock. and i would like to go there because i come from there. and with 14 months left of my sentence, i would like to finish it in my hometown. so i ve suggested that. they said they ll look to see if i fit the criteria. which i do, i think. because i m not a troublemaker. you ve been put in front of me this morning for using threatening, abusive, or assaulting words of behavior. okay. when being served with a report, james reid became abusive to me, telling me to get [ bleep ] is that correct? though officials may argue reid s claim of not being a troublemaker, even reid acknowledges that wherever and whenever he finishes his sentence, he ll have issues to
i m a female half their size and they had to go to my house and bust down a front door and come with weapons and a posse to a female s apartment? that makes me look like i m the baddest bitch alive. right? like, come on. i m pretty sure i m going to win at trial. i really do have a good feeling about it, because the only thing i m guilty of is i was there. i admit that. i was there but i was there for a legit reason. she knew i was coming over. i was there to get my property and she shot first. do you ever think you should have just shot those guys? yeah. everybody gives me [ bleep ] for it. everybody. i think back now and i should have. but i m fine with it. you know? life goes on. karma s a bitch. it will come back around to them, whether they re in prison or not, it will come back around. it was only after the shooting that she ran into her own problems with the law and was arrested on more than a dozen charges.
we met frederico when we were filming what we called b roll in the outside exercise cages at the prison. he made a striking impression on me because when we started talking, he was extremely articulate. and when he talked about his crimes, he was very self-aware and very honest about the consequences of his actions. i was brought up into a culture where they teach you to be violent. they teach you to outsmart the enemy. they teach you to regard law enforcement and your society and your government with contempt. once you inculcate yourself with that lifestyle, with that philosophy, then it s not a matter of right and wrong anymore. it becomes a matter of this is my life, the life that i m living. to what end? to this end, which is nothing. when we met him, munoz was in the level 6 maximum security yard, serving two life sentences for two murders. i shot one, and i strangled the other in the county jail.
all right. his disciplinary hearing for a night full of harassing correctional staff. it more memorable than most we ve ever covered. you ll just hack it off? i admit that. yeah. i ve let that escalate. i escalated that. reid was serving an 11-year sentence. he had stabbed a friend during an argument, and the man died. but reid s personal demon had made him no stranger to prison. how long have you been in prison? most of my life. why? what was your life like out there before prison? just spun out of control through alcohol, you know. jimmy reid was probably one of the most forthright inmates i ve ever interviewed. he just was completely uncensored. very self-effacing. very honest about who he was, what he did, why he did it. and he had a great face.
thing as losing an eye, rita had a fairly decent attitude about it. she was pretty upbeat and positive and she took it out and showed us. this is the part that they cut out. it s just made out of what fake nails are made out of and this is my eye. and it moves exactly with the other one or just about. the cool thing is, though, the doctor that s doing this for me is going to make me an extra one with a black widow in it. so i can [ bleep ] people. only then did we get to the story of how exactly she lost her eye. it all started when she suspected her male roommate of stealing from her. found all these pawn slips to all my gold jewelry. not only that, but he didn t pay me the rent or put money on the electricity bills. so i kicked him out. on lockup we often shoot a lot of prisons, but one of the things that s interesting about jail as opposed to prison is it
