protection, colorado policy is to integrate them into general population. when these gang members moved into the pod, i respected theirs. they pick on the weak. i m not a strong guy. a little up there in the age. so they immediately thought, you know, let s see what this guy is in for. so they asked me for my paperwork. i said, well i m not going to show you my paperwork. then i had gone to tommy, who i knew was the head guy. tommy is tommy holloman who prison officials say is the leader of the 211 gang. i told him. i says, look, i m not going to lie to you. i said, this is what i m in for. i said it was on an ex-girlfriend of mine. i says, it wasn t on a child. i said, i m not a piece of crap, i m not a rat. he says, you know, yeah, okay. then he sent down one of his
long time. years. maybe. maybe i ll see you next time. you know, you never know. coming up most of the areas i ll get stabbed or killed. things heat up. not only for david laudone, but for tommy holloman as well. we had information that he was involved in drugs. [ woman ] ring. ring. progresso. your soups are so awesomely delicious my husband and i can t stop eating em! what s.that. on your head? can curlers! tomato basil, potato with bacon. we ve got a lot of empty cans. [ male announcer ] progresso. you gotta taste this soup.
and told them he was being extorted by wright and holloman. a lot of sex offenders know who i am. they know that these cos think i have a lot of pull. so if they re worried or scared about something, they re going to drop my name. you know, tommy and his bros are going to get me for whatever reason. and they have to do an investigation about it because there s like a threat of violence and extortion and things like that. as a result of laudone s allegations, holloman and wright were taken from their cells in housing unit number two and moved to administrative segregation, where they were locked down without their tvs, forcing them to miss the super bowl. the next day lieutenant jim fox, the prison s gang intelligence coordinator, took over the investigation. hey, little. hey, can you go down and pick up inmate holloman for me out of segregation? bring him to my office.
he was like a tony soprano of sorts. just like tony soprano he was a personal and likeable guy. i m kind of a momma s boy. on the other hand, i probably wouldn t want to cross him. i m a pretty big guy. and nobody s going to call me out. i m part of a pretty intimidating group. when we re on the yard, we re 20, 30 deep. pretty big white boys. nobody really challenges that. so, it wasn t as hard as i thought it would be. holloman made it to the top of his prison gang. but then the unexpected happened. he caught a break in his case. a reclassification hearing on his 30-year sentence was influenced by an unlikely source. so, the day before my hearing this guy that i stabbed wrote a letter to the judge saying that i deserved a second chance. and that i was given a long time and it s not fair because of my mistake that my family had to suffer and lose a son, you know? you know, it was pretty amazing. i mean, i had a lot of people, they spoke at the hearing.
everything. there s a lot of rats at this place. these cops know everything that goes on pretty much. we ve been hearing about tommy holloman while we were at limon. as the shock collar of the white supremacist gang. when we first encountered him, i was a little taken aback. i was expecting this mean, tough, hardcore guy. instead it was this tommy that we came to know who seemed shy, a little timid. a little withdrawn. i have a pretty good heart. my mom, she s always had foster kids. and she s worked in a group home. so, i mean, i ve always wanted to do what she did. i always wanted to help somebody. and i really think i can. during the shoot, he was brought in for questioning when another inmate accused him of execution. hey. watching lieutenant fox deal with tommy was very interesting.
