What I got here is a shank,
I got it for my protection.

It's life or death
in there, for real.

- You can get your ass beat.
- You guys' project is insane.

- Shut the door.
- It's so **** real.

Yeah, this jail's
really messed up.

There's a lot of
problems in this jail.

I feel like I'm about to snap.

This place sucks, it sucks.

They can violate every
possible human right.

Squat and cough.

It's embarrassing, for sure.

It makes you feel
like less than a man.

It's hard.

I'm scared that if I have
to stay here for another day,

my mental health
is going to suffer.

I gotta make it home
to my family, you know?

I don't think
it's safe, I don't.

♪60 days in♪
season 06 episode 01

♪60 days in♪
episode title: " should have stayed a fan"

Welcome to etowah county,
Alabama, the heart of Dixie.

We are a very conservative
Christian community.

There's a lot of things
we don't do on Sunday.

We don't cut grass,
we don't hunt.

It's the sabbath day.

We enjoy eating fried chicken

and work six other
days of the week.

I am Jonathan horton, I'm
the new sheriff in town.

I took office January the 14th,

after winning a highly
contested election,

and cameras were
rolling the whole time.

I, Jonathan horton,
solemnly swear

that I will support
the constitution.

How you guys doing?

Good to meet you, man.

I don't blame you man.

I wanted to become sheriff
so I can make a difference

in the detention center
and in the community.

When it comes to the safety
and security of the employees

and the running this jail,
money is not an issue, period.

The previous sheriff had
been here for 12 years.

Some accuse him
of turning the jail

into his personal piggy bank,

pocketing leftover money

from the inmates' food budgets.

I haven't done anything wrong.

If it's wrong, somebody
needs to change the law.

And I think that he just
lost focus of the task at hand.

The jail is rated
to hold 865 inmates.

Currently, we're
at over a thousand.

Lockdown!

The officer to inmate ratio
is one officer to 110 inmates.

There's no barriers
between the inmates

and the correctional officers.

Code yellow unit 4.

You ain't
gonna do **** .

When I took office, it
had been over three years

since the jail
had been searched.

So, in my first week of office,

one of the first things
I did was we had a shakedown.

I brought a camera crew with me
so they could document

just how messed
up this place was.

- Get on the ground.
- Get on the ground now!

Flip over,
flip over.

There was a tremendous
amount of contraband

that was found, I would say
a little over 5,000 pounds.

It varied from
weapons to narcotics

the soft contraband
and the excess trash.

A whole lot of
fishing going on here.

It's like, probably
on the bass pro tour.

Razors, synthetic marijuana.

And 212 broken door
locks within the jail.

It was a bit overwhelming.

I had expected some problems,

but I never expected
it to that magnitude.

This unit alone could have
set the whole building

on fire at any minute.

We can't do nothing
about yesterday,

but the next time
we search the jail,

it's got to be better than this.

As sheriff of etowah
county, I am a firm believer

that the buck stops
with me, good or bad.

200 locks didn't
break overnight.

They broke a long time ago.

After that first shakedown,
it opened my eyes

to just how much work
it was gonna take

to get this jail back into
the shape it needed to be.

Lockdown!

We've got a lot of work to do

and a blatant place to start.

I realized that this
jail is really broken.

I believe that we
need 60 days in

more than any other
jail in America.

So, I'm putting seven civilians
into the detention center

and we look forward to the
skillset and perspective

that each brings to the table
to help clean our jail up.

I'm Ashley,
being a police officer

is a rollercoaster of
emotions, but you will not

see me shed a tear on
this show, I promise.

I'm Dennis, I
definitely grew up in the hood,

but in college, I was
a quarterback and I was

a football star,
so while I'm in there,

I'm not gonna tolerate
any disrespect.

I'm Alex, I'm a
political science major.

Growing up, I had a
pretty easy childhood,

but I want to show my parents
that I can get through

60 days in jail without
needing their help.

My
name is Jennifer.

I'm a born-again Christian
and a god-fearing woman.

Being a Christian
woman, I'm expecting

to go in and change lives.

My name is Jacob.

I'm a corrections officer for
the state of Pennsylvania.

To have to congregate
with other inmates,

it's going to be
difficult for me.

My name is
Shanese, I am an educator.

I work with at-risk youth.

They tell me I'm crazy,

but you have to have
a little bit of crazy

to work in that atmosphere
and be successful.

My name is Matt.

Fresh outta high school,
I joined the marine corps.

I love the show, I watch
the show every season.

If history has
shown us anything,

being a marine will
play to my advantage.

The
participants will see

where drugs and
contraband are coming in.

Identify problems
we would have never seen.

But, it's going
to be a very difficult task.

Let me out!

I don't think these
participants are ready

for what they're about to face.

I believe that this
jail is going to be

a lot tougher than any
of the past seasons.

And that's why we
need to meet with them

and make sure
they're prepared.

- Alex.
- Matt.

Nice to meet you, man.

No, no, I won't quit
once I start something.

I hear ya.

Yeah, it's hitting me right now,

but I think once I'm in there,

it'll be like a relief.
You know what I mean?

What's going on, man?

- Alex.
- Nice to meet you.

Dennis, nice to meet you.

- Matt.
- Matt?

- Yeah.
- Nice to meet you guys.

Nervous?

Ah, yeah.

- Sup, bro?
- Sup, man, I'm Matt.

I'm Jacob, nice to meet you.

- Jacob, what's up, boss?
- What's your name?

- Dennis.
- Dennis.

- I'm Alex.
- Alex.

- Yeah, nice to meet you, man.
- All right, cool, nice.

How you guys doing
this afternoon?

It's good, good.

Doing great, to introduce myself,
I'm Jonathan Horton.

I'm the sheriff of
etowah county, Alabama.

This is my first term,
I'm a new sheriff.

I would like to
introduce to you my team.

To my right is the assistant
chief of corrections,

Mark bullock.

To my left is chief of
corrections, Keith peek.

Chief peek is chief
of corrections.

He's the top of the food chain
when it comes to the jail.

No one knows the jail
as well as chief peek.

In relationship to this program,

chief peek will be the point
person with the participants.

Let's start with you guys and
I'll start here in the front.

You wanna introduce yourself
and where you're from?

My name is Matt, from Tacoma,
Washington, Seattle area.

I was in the marine corps,
decided to do this to see

if my opinion's right on
jail, or if it's wrong.

So, what do you think of
the criminal justice system

right now?

Being a criminal
is not my world,

criminal justice
system is not my world.

I wanna go out and help veterans
who've been through this,

and I can't help
them if I don't know

what they went through.

And what's your story?

- Why were you arrested?
- I got a d.U.I.

We're now talking inmate talk.

- I got a d.U.I.
- D.U.I.

Where'd you get caught at?

Up in hunstville, at redstone.

Yeah, okay.

Appreciate it, thank you.

So, I think all the marines

that have been on the show
have been successful.

You want to come up?

Matt and Nate are
both combat veterans.

I don't think I'm
up to their level

because I just didn't have
that kind of deployment,

but I'm up to their level
as far as I'm a marine,

I understand the routine.

Hi, my name's Jacob.

I'm 45 minutes south of
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

And then what's your story?

I got arrested
for embezzlement.

Embezzlement, okay.

Now, in real life, you work
in the state penitentiary or...

I been at the state
penitentiary now

for three and a half
years, and then before,

I was there for about two
and a half, three years.

Then, I did 500 hours
of overtime last year,

on top of my normal
schedule, and...

Sound like you work
at etowah county.

- Well, thank you.
- No problem.

- We wish you a lot of luck.
- Thank you.

My name is Alex,
I'm 24, from Atlanta, Georgia.

I'm in my senior year
studying political science.

I'm kinda at a point in my
life where I'm not exactly sure

which path I wanna
take, what exactly

I wanna do with my life.

So, I'm hoping this
will help me grow up,

and I'll be able
to get through this

without the help of mom
and dad, for once, so.

So, if you were
in jail right now,

what were you
arrested for, Alex?

I was on my way
to Panama City beach

after finishing my finals,

and we were picking up
a friend in Birmingham.

Cop pulls us over, finds
two ounces of cocaine.

Nobody claims the cocaine,
so we all get arrested

and sent to different jails.

Were you driving
or just a passenger?

I was a passenger.

Now, are
you nervous right now?

A little bit.

You're about to
pull your fingers off,

and they're shaking like crazy.

So, why are you nervous?

- Why am I nervous?
- What's making you nervous

right now with just us?

Just talking,
honestly, to you guys

- right now is a little bit...
- So, how you gonna do

with a bunch of inmates?

So, we've got a nice space.

An inmate is gonna be like
this up on you, talking to you.

- Yeah.
- See the difference?

- Mm-hm.
- So if you're

nervous now with us,

right.

These guys will see that,
they will eat you alive.

Okay.

- You need to work on that.
- Right.

Go to your hotel room or
wherever you're staying,

stand in front of a mirror,
and tell your story.

- Yeah.
- We've got homework tonight.

All right thanks, Alex.

- Your name again?
- Dennis.

Dennis,
okay, Dennis.

- Nice to meet you.
- Dennis.

What's your inmate story?

I mean, what are
you doing in jail?

I don't really feel like
talking about that right now.

- Okay.
- What you in for?

I'm good, I'm not in jail,
I'm running the jail.

You know, you're a
little cocky, okay.

You ever been in
jail before, really?

No, never.

So, this is a new
experience for you, okay?

You're kinda pretty.

You're going to go in a place
with a bunch of rednecks.

With that attitude right there,
they're going to eat you alive.

I think chief peek
is threatened by me,

intimidated by me.

That to me, that's
not a tough person.

That's a weak person,
that's a soft person.

That's a person I'd
beat up, you know,

if I'm allowed to,
if I could fight 'em.

Peek come off to me as one of
those type of guys, you know?

This is jail, but I'm
gonna get my respect.

You gotta relax a little bit.

You gotta let lose, you know?

You got my back, I got yours.

Thank you, sir.

- Good to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Good luck to you.
- Thank you.

So, once
you get in these units,

there's a couple of signals
that we're gonna give you,

one verbal and one
physical, to ask for help.

The non-verbal is to
take your right hand

and put it upon your chest.

We'll call it the
pledge of allegiance,

or I've got heartburn.

This is your signal
of I need help.

The verbal would be, it
sure is crowded in this pod.

It sure is crowded in this pod.

In etowah county, we
have a large population

that generates a lot of
violence within the jail.

So, I've asked my
associates, chief John Bryant

how's it going guys?

- How you doing?
- And detective Jason Higgins to come

and help us in training today
in teaching self-defense.

Hands up!

It's an aggressive,
assertive movement.

That's what you got to do.

These guys are both
masters of self-defense,

certified in ppct, which is
pressure point control tactics.

In a fight, a minute can
seem like an eternity.

Nice!

All right, let's
do the duck out.

Come on up and grab me, right.

But I'm simply just
gonna duck out.

All right, good, now you
try it, you choke him.

No, no, no, no, no, do it again.

Ready? I'm gonna choke you.

Oh you're gonna...

No, no, no, no, no.

I was not impressed with
my performance in training.

Right down.

It still feels so awkward.

I don't know what it was,
I just couldn't duck.

But I played plenty of
dodge ball in my life.

Come on, Alex.

Dennis was like, I
guess he could tell

I was discouraged, so
he tried to help me out.

Duck, like, duck.

I had to encourage him, I just
kinda took him to the side

and let him practice on me,
you know what I'm saying?

I don't want you to feel like
you can't protect yourself.

You can.

Let's go
Alex, do it, man.

Get away from me.

Do it again, this
time, put some ass into it.

All right,****.

I hope none of you guys end
up having to defend yourself,

but it is a very
real possibility.

All right? All right.

Good luck to you, sir.

The etowah county
jail is in a dire situation.

Good luck.

We do not feel that
we have time to waste.

We feel that we need to get
participants embedded in

the jail as soon as possible.

Good job, guys.

So, we're gonna do things
different this season.

I'm going to arrest people
straight out of training.

We've had a long
day of training.

All of you seemed
to have done well.

Now, I will tell you this,
we have made a decision

that one of you is
going to jail today.

So, we've had a long
day of training.

All of you seemed
to have done well.

Now, I will tell you this,
we have made a decision

that one of you is
going to jail today.

And that person's going to be
the one that we feel is the

most ready, and right now, we
feel like that's you, Matt.

****I got a few
things that I need

to handle with my wife first.

You can take care
of that before you go.

- All right.
- All right.

We want Matt to
go in first.

All right sir.

We feel like his
former military training

gives him a little bit
of an edge.

In the past, marines have
done well in the program.

We feel that he's the
toughest for the position.

I didn't expect it, I didn't.

When he was like,
"somebody's going in today,"

my stomach dropped immediately.

Hello?

Hey, I'm gonna go in
right now.

No, you're not.

I really...

Huh?

Are you okay?

Yeah, just I'm ****
nervous.

You got this.

Just like two or three days,
I'll probably get ahold of you.

Oh, man.

All right, well, I
love you, be safe.

You got this. You can do it.

All right, I love you both.

All right,
we love you too.

All right, bye.

Not in a million years
would I ever have thought

I was gonna be on
"60 days in", at all.

In 2011, I joined
the marine corps.

I was active duty
for four years.

Been to Afghanistan, one tour.

Got married shortly after that.

And I now have a
three-year-old daughter.

I'd like to say
Ihave the perfect life.

I love my family, I
like to be around them.

Those are my best friends.

I'm very strong-minded.

Once I make my mind up on
something, I'm gonna do it.

I'm competing to prove to
myself that any situation

that arises in my
life, I can handle it.

If I can handle
the marine corps,

I can handle going to jail.

All right, let's just do it.

Now that I'm getting
ready to go in,

I need to remember why I'm
here, why I'm doing this

because this is a
whole new world.

What is the city called?

Gladson? Gadsen?

Okay.

I don't even know.

Yeah.

So, walk right this way, come
on, please, sir.

Walking towards
the arrest vehicle,

I felt excitement,
fear, nervousness.

When I got handcuffs
put on me, I felt like

there's no turning
back at that point.

I've accepted the mission,

and I have to perform
and complete it.

Now that Matt's on
his way to the facility,

it's time to refocus and make
sure the females are trained

and ready for the challenges
that lay ahead of them.

- How are you?
- Great, how are you?

- Shanese.
- Good to meet you.

You, as well.

Hi, how are you?

I'm Jennifer.

Are we the team?

- Yes.
- We're the team?

- Well...
- Yes.

- We're the team, yes.
- Oh my gosh.

Shanese, give me a hug, girl.

- What's your name?
- Ashley.

Good to meet you,
how you feeling?

I'm good, I've just been kind
of waiting to meet you guys.

I take this program
extremely seriously.

Anticipation is killing me.

I just hope I get put with a
group of like-minded people

whose goal is to
help the sheriff

and to make this
world a better place.

This is so nice to
finally meet you guys.

I kinda have chill
bumps right now

- 'cause this is like...
- Yeah.

This feels good.

Good morning, I'm
sheriff Jonathan horton.

This is my chief of
corrections, Keith peek,

assistant chief of
corrections, Mark bullock.

You're going to the
etowah county jail.

It's one of the largest
county jails in the state.

So that you can get
an understanding

of some of the things
you may encounter,

I'm gonna turn it to chief
of corrections, Keith peek.

Y'all got all prettied up
today, you put your makeup on.

These are things you're
not gonna be able to do.

It's not gonna be
a walk in the park.

It's not gonna be
easy, "hey, I'm on TV."

We have 10 units in our jail,
one unit is for females.

Wow.

So, knowing that,
you're gonna be in there

with anybody from a traffic
ticket to capital murder.

Mmm.

You know the women,
to be honest with you,

are a lot nastier
than the men are.

A lot more conniving,
manipulative,

and just as violent or vile.

We actually have more
fights inside the women's unit

than we do anywhere
in the facility.

Interesting.

So, we'll start on this
end, we're gonna give each one

of you an opportunity
and introduce yourself.

Hi, I'm Ashley,
nice to meet you.

I'm 29 years old,
I'm from Texas.

I'm full-time army
national guard.

For my own safety, I do not want

any of the other
participants to know

that my actual career is
that I'm a police officer.

That's pretty much
me in a nutshell.

Because there have
been previous leaks

in the show by the participants.

I'll be telling everyone
outside of the sheriff

and the production staff that
I am full-time national guard.

Being in the military and
having the kind of training that

I have, I have a very clear
mission, I want to help you.

I really do want to help you
and find out as much as I can.

Y'all have got a mindset
where you want to go in jail

to see what's going on,
that's not normal.

You know, they see you going
out a lot for interviews

and stuff like that,
you're gonna be labeled as a snitch.

Snitches get stitches,
so how long it takes them

to label you as a snitch,
that's up to y'all.

You've got to be cautious
of what you do, you know?

These people do
this for a living.

They don't do it to be on
TV and to be a movie star.

- Well, thank you, Ashley.
- All right.

Hello, I'm shanese.

- Shanese? Okay.
- Shanese, you got it.

I work with at-risk youth.

One of the reasons I'm
interested in doing this,

a lot of my kids
have been to jail,

a lot of their parents
have been in jail,

or are in jail, or in prison.

I try tot reach
them in unique ways,

and I think this is a very
unique way to try to reach them.

So, you're a little nervous
and all that kind of stuff.

I am, I mean, I really,
I feel stupid.

- I feel crazy.
- But I love it.

'Cause you ain't
pulled at your hands.

You hadn't done anything, so.

It's all in my head,
my head's just going like...

You ever had trouble
with law enforcement?

Yes and no.

I'll tell you this, before
going into education,

I wasn't a fan, but they've
helped me out a lot.

I mean, working in an
alternative school,

there's fights, there's
guns, there's all of that,

and they protect me.

So I have no problem
with law enforcement.

- Good luck, shanese.
- Thank you.

Last but not least.

She's been taking a
lot of deep breaths over there.

I have.

I'm Jennifer.

Keith, - nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

And how old are you, Jennifer?

I'm 41, I'm a
minister in my church.

When I was young,
I was a very rebellious teen.

I was a runaway, I
was an alcoholic,

I was an underaged
stripper at the age of 14.

I had a son very young.

By the time I had my son, I
kind of changed my life around.

Now I'm a grandmother,
my son will be 25.

My whole motto is if I
can change someone's mind,

their way of thinking,
then their actions are

automatically gonna follow.

So, not only do I live
that, but I see it work.

And you actually have
good body language,

as far as how you talk,
how you tell your story,

which I think is because
you have a past of...

Maybe.

Dealing with that type of stuff.

- You have any tattoos?
- No.

You'll have the
opportunity to get some.

No, thank you.

I'm gonna pass, I'm gonna pass.

Here's the thing, okay?

The numbers are
stacked against you.

You're from out of town,
you don't know anybody,

you don't have friends, they do.

Remember that.

So, are y'all scared?

Hell, yeah.

So when I woke up
for training today,

I was like, "all right,
I'm a little bit tired."

And then you guys
dropped that bomb on me,

told me I'm going in,

and my whole
fatigue kinda turned

into like an adrenaline rush.

Stepping out of the arrest
car, you feel anxious.

You feel worried, you feel lost.

One guy was on suicide watch.

That set in the
reality and I was like,

"man, this is so real."

Take a seat right
in that chair right there.

And then once I walked
through the actual jail door,

and I sat at that table,
I'm trying to sit there

and remember my cover story,

and remember everything
I have to remember.

But the only thing I could
think about are my surroundings.

I was just like, "i
sacrificed everything

"back home to do this?"

Like, what was I thinking?

Right here,
gentlemen.

Like, I'm not as mentally
strong as I thought I was.

Because I thought I had it
figured out, and I don't.

So, are y'all scared?

Hell, yeah.

Being an educator
for at-risk youth,

at any moment, the kids can
bring in a gun, a knife,

or whatever, and you know,
a lot of times, I am scared.

But in training,
**** got real.

It got real, it got so real.

I mean, I been here for
19 years, I get scared.

With that being
said, we've decided

to arrest one of you and place
you in the jail right now.

We've decided that
person is Ashley.

- We feel that you're ready.
- All right, I knew it.

- You ready to go to jail?
- Yep.

This is the best way to do it.

Now I don't gotta
think about it anymore.

All right, can I wash my face?

Yeah, you can wash your face.

- Okay.
- Yep.

We want Ashley to go in first

because we believe
being as police officer

will give her that edge that
she needs to be successful.

- Goodbye, ladies.
- Bye.

You okay?

Yeah, I was holding my breath.

I'm surprised I'm breathing.

All right.

Ouch.

I'm kind of glad that it is me

because the
anticipation is murder.

So, get in, get it over with.

Okay

do my job, do the
best I can, get out.

Those are my goals.

It's game time.

You look different.

You look a
little more inmate-ready.

- So, we wish you a lot of luck,
- Thank you.

And we believe
you'll do fine, so...

Anything I can do to help.

I have been in the national
guard for over 11 years.

I love my country.

As a police officer, I
have a lot of respect

for corrections officers.

My motivation for
wanting to do this

is the very rare
opportunity to strengthen

my investigation skills by
engulfing myself in the element.

I'm a police officer, I'm in
the military, I'm a student.

I am quite overwhelmed
with everything in my life,

but I have no doubt that I'll
make it the full 60 days.

Let's get me in, let me learn.

Let me help, I'm ready.

Calm down, when
I take these cuffs off,

your hand goes on top of
your head, do you understand?

When I came into
booking, oh gosh,

it was probably the most
surreal moment of my life.

I'm just thinking,
"wow, this is a very

"different experience for me."

I'm used to taking
people to jail,

and now I'm in there with them.

You'll turn around, put
your hands against the wall.

I have done better pat-downs
on the side of the road

than I was given entering
a correctional facility.

She didn't search
the inside of my bra.

She didn't check in
between my legs properly.

Nobody checked my mouth.

That was scary to me
because I definitely

could have snuck
in a lot of drugs.

Go to that
room that has chains on it.

I don't want it
too tight anyway.

Thank you.

I didn't even get a
towel to wash my ass.

Nobody watched me
take my clothes off.

I got to take my
clothes off privately.

I could have kept my bra,
the only reason I took it off

is because I knew that
it was contraband,

and I'm not trying
to rock the boat.

I was not asked to squat.

All right ladies, let's go.

But it's actually
reminded me of why I'm doing it,

to help out the
community as a whole.

Sorry.

I tried to keep
like stone-faced, but...

That was like
probably the most vulnerable

moment of my life.

I feel like an inmate.

I feel like a real
inmate, and that's scary.

In other seasons,
intake looked very quick.

I thought you know, you go
in there, get your cuffs,

here's your ****, put
it on, go to your cell.

When I went through
it, nine hours,

waiting to be told you're
going to this room.

You know, like a kit-Kat
when you break it in half?

That's my mind right now.

The stuff they gave me
told me it was fresh.

Jeans that have
never been washed,

a shirt that has never
been washed, the mattress,

I wouldn't even call
it a **** mattress.

A piece of cotton with
the rubber over it.

And all of a sudden,
it's a whole other game.

Pay attention.

Walking into the pod
for the first time,

it was a very surreal feeling

at three o'clock in the morning,

haven't slept all
day, to just see.

It literally looks like a zoo.

People walk around, all the
animals come out to get fed,

that's really what
it looked like.

That's really how
it felt, like a zoo.

And because the
doors don't lock,

they don't go to bed
even at night time.

Go ahead, boy.

You know you scared, boy.

449 right there.

You kickin'
it with me, baby!

**** The police!

You watch the show, and it
looks completely different

than when you're in here.

In the back of my
head, I was like,

"you should have
just stayed a fan.

"Honestly, you should
have just stayed a fan."

And I don't care
what anybody says.

If you've never been to
jail, you have no idea.

I didn't sleep
too well last night.

A lot of anxiety.

Right now, I'm
still very nervous.

I think anybody
that's going to jail

that's never actually done
jail time is gonna be nervous.

But, you know, I
walk into this type

of environment everyday.

Hey, baby girl,
are you daddy's girl?

I'm a family man.

I have a wife and
three children.

Ahh.

I got into
corrections mainly to

make better
money for my family.

Working in corrections, you
have to have a thick skin.

There's danger everyday,

and you pretty much become
accustomed to the environment.

I gotta go, can I have
big hugs one more time?

I believe that being a
C.O. could be an advantage.

Are you daddy's girl?

Yeah.

But I also believe
that it could be

a disadvantage, as well,
because I know inmates,

I know what they do, I know
what they're in involved in.

And, it's horrible.

- I love you.
- I love you too.

Bye, puppy.

But failing is not an option.

For me to tap out, it's gonna
take a shank to the body.

I have never left home before.

Really?

Nope.

This will be
an experience.

Yeah.

Okay.

Sounds... sounds great.

All right, fellas.

How's it going, Jacob?

I'm doing okay,
how are you?

Ready to do this thing?

Yep, I am.

I have high expectations,
not to put stress on you,

knowing what you do for a
living in the real world.

You got you cover story,

yep.

Pretty good and down.

So, anything you wanna say
before we begin this mission?

The only thing I
can think of is...

Let's get it going,
I'm tired of waiting.

Good luck, Jacob.

All right, thank you.

Gonna have you step right
over here to the arrest team.

Jacob, he's got to
be able to separate

being an officer
versus an inmate.

And if he can't accept
that role reversal,

he's gonna fail.

For me to be successful,

I'm going to have to
stick to my cover story,

and I'm going to have to
become inmate Jacob Miller.

Walking up in
there, I do have this feeling

that this jail may be worse
than the other seasons.

Even though I
have an idea of what goes on

inside these places, now I'm
gonna be on the other side.

He in there?

And that worries me because
inmates are very smart.

They shout, say, and
do certain things

to try to mock you, make
fun of you, to bully you

because they're
trying to spin you up.

Oh yeah.

Being alone
inside this jail,

it's really the only thing
that I'm terrified of.

What do you
think Jerry?

I think this is
going to be

a lot harder than I thought.

Just replaying my
story in my head.

I gotta live a different
life, so I'm ready.

My hands a little sweaty,
but it's all good.

I feel like, this ride
feel like my uconn...

Ready to head to rentschler
field, like it's game day.

High school, college,
football was everything to me.

So it was always,

"you gotta be the leader,
you gotta be the leader."

And not to sound cocky
or anything like that,

but everywhere I went,
people look up to me.

So, I don't think this
will be any different.

You really thought this out?

I think I did.

I was thinking about
what it can do,

how I can help the
community, help the people.

I wanna go to jail for 60 days

because I definitely wanna
show my family, my friends,

and basically myself that I
can do something like this.

I know you as a person.

Like my son, so I know
you know how to handle

what need to be handled.

For sure, yeah.

Yeah, by the end,
I'll definitely

have some position of
authority in there.

Basically, you just look
at people in the eyes,

and you just don't
back down, that's it.

Aw, ma, don't be so sad, ma.

You gonna be praying in jail?

Yeah, i'ma be praying.

You better be praying.

All right,
Dennis, good luck in there.

All
right, I'll be back.

- What's up, sheriff?
- Dennis, how you feelin, man?

- Feeling good.
- You ready to do this?

Yes, sir, I'm ready.

You look like you come
off a gq photo shoot.

You know you're in the
country now, right?

- I'm from Miami.
- You gotta go in...

That ain't the country.

You need to go in with a
mindset of don't worry about

your appearance or
anything like that

'cause when people see that,
they're gonna tear you apart.

- Yes, sir.
- I know we're on TV,

but you're fixin' to go
into a real, live jail.

There's not going to be
anybody in there that says,

"hey, stop, we're
gonna retake this."

- Got it?
- Yes, sir.

Your success is our success,
so that's what we're after.

- All right?
- Yes sir.

Go right over here
to the arrest team.

Step to the front of the Van,

place both hands on the hood.

Go ahead and lift
up your left leg.

I definitely want to show
the mental toughness I have

to be able to go in any
situation and come out dominant.

I think I can go in
there and definitely

have an influence in there.

Step right
inside the Van.

I'm not gonna go in
there and get bullied.

That I won't tolerate,
I can hold my own.

For real, I can hold my own.

But I never been to jail, so...

I know I'm talking
before I go in there.

But I'm a tough person,
and I'm going in there,

and I know I'm gonna kill
it, I know I'm gonna kill it.

The moment that
I set foot in that pod,

I think I was having
a panic attack.

I want something
to drink, bitch!

The **** out my face!

This is not like anything
I've seen on 60 days, ever.

This is nothing like anything
I've ever seen on the show.

Show me how bad you can be...

So many more females
than "60 days in"

has ever had before,
like it's just massive.

My cellmate, she told me that
they put bright pink shirts on

women who are either convicted
or charged with murder,

or other high-custody crimes,

so that they make
those women stand out.

This is very very real.

This is a very real,
terrifying situation to be in.

Especially for me.

Thank god I decided not to
tell anybody my real job.

If word gets out that
I am a police officer,

I will probably be
in the hospital.

This is not what I thought
it was gonna be at all.

Sign one last
time for me, ma'am.

I do not need to be
around anybody, okay?

What they say...

I've told them that,
they know that.

They want to lock me up.

As I walk through intake...

Just to even walk
through those doors,

that's when I knew this is
not TV, this is real life.

Six foot three inches.

- How much you weigh?
- 200 pounds.

From that moment,
I said a prayer.

And it was like, you know what?

What the hell. I'ma go with it.

You're gonna step
right over there.

One four!

I recognized him when I first
walked in, it was Jacob.

I didn't talk to him, but I
can tell he's not felling well.

He looked like he was sick.

I don't know how
long he's been here.

He kept drinking water, he
kept using the restroom.

I don't know what's going on.

As a corrections
officer on the inside,

I'm having a hard
time turning it off.

If you wanna tap out,
take your right hand

and put it upon your chest.

I can't become
an inmate, I can't do that.

I'll see you
on the other side.

I'm
giving up all control.

- Checking was very slack.
- I totally could have

stuck something up my
butt if I wanted to.

Gotta go in, had to look
like, "don't **** with me."

It's been pure
**** from the moment

I walked in through the door.

If you think this
**** is fake,

I'm telling you
right now, it's not.

Etowah county jail is a party.

Anything that's out in
the street is in jail.

Clone, heroin, ice.

The whole night is
just free-for-all.

There's weapons, it is not safe.

I never really
seen a guy get, like,

stabbed that close to me.

Yeah, beat that white
boy, we cracked your ass.

People can die in
a matter of seconds.

If Alex was in
any type of danger,

I would look out for him.

I'd rather get beat up than
have Dennis be my savior.

That was ****
awkward as **** .

This place sucks ass.

I trust Ashley more
than I do Jennifer.

I don't drink stuff like
that, what's going on?

I want shanese to go home
as soon as possible, please.

Burn in hell, bitch.

This place can
take a sane person,

and cause them to become insane.

There are so many demonic
presences in this place.

That place is **** insane.

This is **** up.

This is the worst thing I've
ever experienced in my life.

This is the dumbest
decision I've ever made.

If you wanna tap out,
take your right hand

and put it upon your chest.

I underestimated
the reality of it.

Something
that's never happened before

in six seasons, is
happening right now.

Bye bye.
