    #2 - Maricopa County: Extended Stay - Chain Reaction

    S8:E2

    Located on the top floor of Maricopa County's Fourth Avenue Jail Facility, are the highest-security male housing units. These inmates have either committed violent acts in the jail or have been identified as gang members. And like all inmates at Maricopa, some are awaiting trial while others have been convicted and are appealing their verdicts or sentences. They are isolated in very stark cells 23 hours a day and get one hour of rec time in an empty concrete room with a skylight located right next door to their cells. Without the distraction of television, radio or a cellmate, even the most hardened criminals can break under the pressure. One gang member makes a desperate cry for help by putting a noose around his neck, then says, "I just need somebody to talk to." And on the other side of the jail, completely isolated from other inmates, Maricopa's four most dangerous women form a notorious sisterhood

    S8:E4

    In one of Maricopa's primary men's facilities, the Fourth Avenue Jail, when inmates are not in their small, two-person cells, they can work out in an indoor rec room, or in the common area between their cells. But every afternoon, many of the inmates shift focus from their bodies to their bank accounts. Since inmates are not allowed access to cash, they have another way to pay gambling debts. The losers must purchase snacks or other items from the jail canteen for the winners. They pay for canteen through debit accounts that friends or relatives on the outside deposit money into. But a losing hand can bring serious consequences.
