  Hey, we're doing something a little different today. I wanted to introduce you
• 0:04
  to a new show that I know you're really going to want to listen to
• 0:08
  On Our Watch. On Our Watch is an investigative podcast series from KQED this
• 0:14
  season, it follows the stories of two correctional officers who pay a high price
• 0:19
  for exposing corruption and abuse by their fellow officers. The show shines a light
• 0:25
  on a broken accountability system through interrogation tapes, nine to one one audio,
• 0:30
  prison phone calls, personal audio recordings, and hours of emotional interviews. It's
• 0:36
  an explosive narrative you need to hear. Next up, we have the trailer
• 0:41
  just for you. Take a listen, take it in, and then find
• 0:44
  and follow on our Watch. Wherever you're listening to this right now, you're
• 0:48
  going to want to hear the whole story. He wanted to be an investigator.
• 0:55
  He said, it was the most dangerous prison in California. Each day
• 1:00
  people step inside prison walls not to serve a sentence, but to do a
• 1:06
  job. I state your name, recognize the badge of my office. Correctional
• 1:14
  officers promised to protect the innocent and hold each other accountable, and I accept
• 1:19
  it as a public trust, and in turn there promised a new family.
• 1:26
  Congratulations, welcome to the family. But once behind the walls, those promises
• 1:34
  are hard to keep. He texted, I sold my pride for the job
• 1:42
  and it wasn't worth it. This one sergeant, he put his hands around
• 1:45
  his neck and he said, I can make it look like an accident in
• 1:49
  a place where secrecy is enforced through intimidation and threat of violence. To live
• 1:55
  under that kind of fear, I can't explain to you lives hang in the
• 1:59
  balance. They just really don't give a fun. They don't hear about my
• 2:01
  life, don't care about helping me. Did you hear that he had died?
• 2:07
  No? Yeah, I'm really sorry to be telling you that. That's
• 2:13
  follow Clay, Follow Clay. Honestly, this is a story about two men
• 2:20
  who defied the unwritten code that binds that brotherhood together. Everything about this case
• 2:25
  raises questions why was he banned from this institution and the cost they paid for
• 2:31
  telling the truth inside a system bent on protecting itself. There's no denying that
• 2:38
  they're fucking responsible for what happened. Losing my son has been something else.
• 2:44
