- 0:59Speaker 1: deput Debut dot red on your Randy dot com. I
- 1:03Speaker 1: hope you do. Let's get started with the podcast and
- 1:12Speaker 1: uh today this one, Uh this is a little bit
- 1:16Speaker 1: different for those of you who uh listening to this
- 1:20Speaker 1: podcast on any other platform outside of YouTube, uh, whether
- 1:25Speaker 1: it be Apple, Spotify, Google or whatnot. I do recommend
- 1:28Speaker 1: that you actually go to YouTube to uh listen to
- 1:32Speaker 1: this one and watch it there because we actually have
- 1:34Speaker 1: a video that's going to a company. You know, my
- 1:37Speaker 1: episode to day Actually we got three videos, though we'll
- 1:41Speaker 1: do one at a time. These three videos come from California. Now,
- 1:48Speaker 1: the first one is, uh, it's pretty it's it's pretty wild.
- 1:52Speaker 1: I mean it's well, it might be pretty wild for
- 1:55Speaker 1: y'all on the streets in here in prison, it's you know,
- 1:57Speaker 1: it's a little bit tame. But it does happen quite right, really,
- 2:00Speaker 1: believe it or not. This is a common occurrence. So
- 2:04Speaker 1: this first video, it begins with an inmate standing in
- 2:07Speaker 1: front of a CEO. Now the footage is from the
- 2:11Speaker 1: CEO's body camera. Inmates just kind of standing there in
- 2:17Speaker 1: like a small hallway and you know, leading into a
- 2:21Speaker 1: large two story housing pot. And I've never seen a video.
- 2:27Speaker 1: I'm just I'm going off of a you know, a
- 2:30Speaker 1: written transcription description of what takes place in this video.
- 2:35Speaker 1: For us here in Virginia, usually that hallway is basically,
- 2:39Speaker 1: you know, like a little like a vestibule type of areas.
- 2:43Speaker 1: I'm kind of thinking that might be similar, but if not,
- 2:46Speaker 1: it is what it is. You know. The thing is
- 2:49Speaker 1: the CEO tells them, may yo man, get walking, and
- 2:53Speaker 1: which kind of sounds a little rude, to be honest
- 2:56Speaker 1: with you. Sounds like this dude's a bit of a dick,
- 2:58Speaker 1: but it is what it is, you know. So they
- 3:01Speaker 1: walk into this large, two story pod. Now, the pot
- 3:06Speaker 1: is a wide warehouse style unit with an open floor
- 3:10Speaker 1: in the center, and it's surrounded by two levels of sel.
- 3:12Speaker 1: So you've got the bottom tier and the top tier,
- 3:16Speaker 1: and there are staircases on both the left and the
- 3:18Speaker 1: right sides leading up to the second tier. Now, I'm
- 3:21Speaker 1: not sure if you know, if it's the pot is
- 3:27Speaker 1: a rectangle or it's, you know, a triangle. Like the
- 3:32Speaker 1: older prisons in Virginia, they're all built on a triangle,
- 3:35Speaker 1: but yet all the newer prisons are built on a rectangle.
- 3:38Speaker 1: So I'm not sure if it's you know, which style
- 3:40Speaker 1: it is. But either way, you've got a bottom tier
- 3:42Speaker 1: and the top tier, and you've got two staircases, one
- 3:45Speaker 1: on each side of the park. Now, the inmate he
- 3:50Speaker 1: walks into the pod and he starts walking up the
- 3:52Speaker 1: stairs on the right side of the pod, you know.
- 3:55Speaker 1: And at the start he's about five feet ahead of
- 3:58Speaker 1: the officer. Now, while the guys walking upstairs and the
- 4:01Speaker 1: CEO is following right behind him, the officer he turns
- 4:05Speaker 1: briefly to speak to two other staff members. I'm not
- 4:08Speaker 1: sure exactly where those staff members are standing, but you know,
- 4:11Speaker 1: you'll be able to see it in the video. And
- 4:13Speaker 1: he calls out the cell number two thirty five. The inmate.
- 4:19Speaker 1: He just keeps walking up the steps. He gets to
- 4:23Speaker 1: the top tier and he turns to walk right along
- 4:26Speaker 1: the row of cells and several doors down five cells,
- 4:31Speaker 1: give or take. Around the corner, another door it opens.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Now there's an inmate in this cell, and he comes
- 4:41Speaker 1: out and you know, he looks, he sees what's going on.
- 4:46Speaker 1: He sees, you know, the inmate walking towards him, and
- 4:49Speaker 1: evidently this dude they've got beef of one another. So
- 4:52Speaker 1: to me, this sounds like this is actually a segregation
- 4:55Speaker 1: pod in California. If there was a day room, you know,
- 5:00Speaker 1: like a general population type of part, there's going to
- 5:04Speaker 1: be you know, up to like eighty some guys moving around,
- 5:07Speaker 1: like you're going to see movement all over the place.
- 5:09Speaker 1: But the fact that there's only two inmates and the
- 5:12Speaker 1: doors are locking the way they're doing it, that's definitely
- 5:15Speaker 1: a segregation part. So these guys have already locked up,
- 5:18Speaker 1: who knows, they might have already got to fighting, you know,
- 5:22Speaker 1: that's what got them locked up in the hole. I
- 5:25Speaker 1: don't know, you know, it's just speculation, but you know,
- 5:28Speaker 1: just from freaking years and years and years, you know,
- 5:32Speaker 1: thirty five years of freaking prison. Now, oh god, that's
- 5:37Speaker 1: fucking insane to think about that. I've been in prison
- 5:39Speaker 1: thirty five years now, I pretty much know I know
- 5:46Speaker 1: what time it is. Man Like, they're gambling dead. They
- 5:49Speaker 1: got to arguing on the door over a game. Like
- 5:53Speaker 1: they've had words, Like pretty much they've had words. And
- 5:58Speaker 1: so the first inmate he walking, and uh, the other
- 6:04Speaker 1: one he starts walking towards him, you know, and the
- 6:08Speaker 1: CEO he sees it. He's like, oh shit. As the
- 6:12Speaker 1: second inmate, you know, the one that came out to sell,
- 6:16Speaker 1: he just he runs up and just starts attacking, just
- 6:18Speaker 1: starts fighting, the swinging on this guy, you know, and
- 6:21Speaker 1: the CEO runs up the stairs. You know, he's screaming,
- 6:23Speaker 1: get down, get down, get down, you know, like they
- 6:27Speaker 1: always do, panicking and everything a little bit, and D'renaline's
- 6:30Speaker 1: pumping because you don't know, like in a situation like this,
- 6:33Speaker 1: man to seeo's that kind of put in a really
- 6:35Speaker 1: bad spot. You don't know what's going to happen. You know,
- 6:38Speaker 1: it could be a setup, bro, Like it could be
- 6:41Speaker 1: you know, both CEOs. Dude, this stuff happens, like I've
- 6:45Speaker 1: seen guys like you hear about it in here all
- 6:48Speaker 1: the time. Like two dudes get the ranking and like
- 6:51Speaker 1: one dude's homeboy comes in to help him, and the
- 6:55Speaker 1: homeboy that's you know, receiving and Hope turns on his
- 6:57Speaker 1: whomeboy and starts beating his homeboys and it's forgetting it
- 7:00Speaker 1: in it like or sometimes you know, both of them
- 7:03Speaker 1: will do like you don't know what's going on man like,
- 7:05Speaker 1: so it's you know, and see he don't run it
- 7:07Speaker 1: up like they might turn and attack the CEO and
- 7:09Speaker 1: tosts his ass over the top here, breaking his back
- 7:12Speaker 1: neck like so like he's in an ft up position.
- 7:14Speaker 1: So yeah, he's definitely you know, he's feeling there's fear
- 7:17Speaker 1: going through him, and you know he's ajournal in his pumpings.
- 7:20Speaker 1: At the end of the day, you don't know what
- 7:21Speaker 1: the hell's gonna happen. So he runs up and he starts, uh,
- 7:28Speaker 1: he starts uh spraying his oc like you know, he
- 7:32Speaker 1: grabs a little canister on his little old holster I'm
- 7:35Speaker 1: not sure which ones they've got. You know, something that's
- 7:37Speaker 1: got like a little small ones that like you you know,
- 7:39Speaker 1: you expect a woman to carry on her purse, you know,
- 7:42Speaker 1: something a little bit larger than like maybe a vaipe pin.
- 7:46Speaker 1: And then you've got some like here in Virginia they
- 7:49Speaker 1: actually got They carry it in like an old school
- 7:53Speaker 1: gunslinger style holster, so it's got like a like a
- 7:56Speaker 1: gun handle on it, and you know, it's it's it's
- 8:00Speaker 1: it's big, heavy duty, you know, about the size of
- 8:04Speaker 1: a twenty ounce soda. You know, CEO gets there, he
- 8:09Speaker 1: starts spraying the guy, you know, obviously, the two inmates
- 8:13Speaker 1: starts screaming and whatnot. And uh, the first inmate that
- 8:17Speaker 1: was you know, it was being escorted back to the
- 8:20Speaker 1: cell by the officer. This gives him a chance to
- 8:23Speaker 1: get away from the first inmate and he he runs,
- 8:27Speaker 1: you know, down round the corner and everything, and it
- 8:29Speaker 1: starts running down the other the left side steps, you know,
- 8:33Speaker 1: towards other officers that are starting to respond and rush
- 8:36Speaker 1: into the pod. And you know that the two CEOs
- 8:39Speaker 1: that was already there, that the first CEO was talking
- 8:41Speaker 1: to when he gave them the wrong cell number. Now
- 8:46Speaker 1: this is the same I think it happens. I've seen
- 8:50Speaker 1: you Bruh. It's this stuff happens all the time in person.
- 8:57Speaker 1: It's a set up sometimes, you know, if the seals
- 9:01Speaker 1: don't like you, like if they if you caused them
- 9:04Speaker 1: a lot of problems. You're always bitching, you're always complaining,
- 9:09Speaker 1: you're always writing them up, You're always screaming at them.
- 9:13Speaker 1: You're abusing them, you're cursing them. You're making their job
- 9:16Speaker 1: a lot harder than it has to be. Man, there
- 9:19Speaker 1: will be retaliation. Sometimes they'll do it themselves. But sometimes,
- 9:24Speaker 1: like we don't know. This is just simply speculation on
- 9:27Speaker 1: my part, but speculation from first hand experience seeing it
- 9:34Speaker 1: so many times, it rearing on you and the wall is RESI.
- 9:37Speaker 1: In other places, the seal might tell tell another, yo, look, man,
- 9:42Speaker 1: when we pull old boy out for the showers and
- 9:45Speaker 1: we pull him outside for wreck or whatever, man, we're
- 9:47Speaker 1: going to accidentally open your door. You run out and
- 9:52Speaker 1: you smash this mother, You beat his ass, Like yo, bro, look,
- 9:56Speaker 1: we're gonna have to hit you with the spray. We're
- 9:58Speaker 1: gonna have to put you in cuss but like you look, man,
- 10:00Speaker 1: we're gonna make it look good and we're going, but
- 10:02Speaker 1: we're going to pay you. But you know you were
- 10:04Speaker 1: going to get at for the rest of you until
- 10:06Speaker 1: you give release to the back to general population. Man,
- 10:09Speaker 1: you're gonna get extra trades every single day, like you want.
- 10:13Speaker 1: You want your homeboys to send you commis there your
- 10:15Speaker 1: smokes or or whatever, like, we're going, we're gonna take
- 10:18Speaker 1: care of you. Like and they for the most part,
- 10:21Speaker 1: they paid because if they don't pay up, they know
- 10:24Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Like you know, you've got a
- 10:27Speaker 1: guy who's willing to go stab somebody for you'll go
- 10:29Speaker 1: fight somebody for you or do something like that. And
- 10:31Speaker 1: you don't pay, man, you know they're going to see
- 10:33Speaker 1: you when they get out the whole. That's just you know,
- 10:36Speaker 1: so when it comes to stuff like that, the CEOs
- 10:38Speaker 1: definitely pay. You know, they're definitely gonna keep their word
- 10:41Speaker 1: and give you the trades and let your homeboys send
- 10:44Speaker 1: packages back to you. You know, that's just you know,
- 10:48Speaker 1: that's the name of the game. This that could have
- 10:51Speaker 1: happened here, maybe it didn't. Maybe it's an honest mistake
- 10:53Speaker 1: because you know what I've seen that crap happen too,
- 10:59Speaker 1: so as the CEO was spraying him and all that stuff.
- 11:03Speaker 1: When he's ordering to do get down, get down, get down,
- 11:05Speaker 1: you know, the first inmate he complies like he's already
- 11:08Speaker 1: been sprayed in the face. His eyes are burning, his
- 11:11Speaker 1: nose is burning, his sinuses are just kicked in. Do
- 11:16Speaker 1: freaking massive, massive overdrop. If you've never been sprayed with mace,
- 11:21Speaker 1: it's literally just picture like a doctor sticking a balloon
- 11:27Speaker 1: through up through your nose into your sonus capacities and
- 11:30Speaker 1: then you know, having like you know, an air compressor
- 11:33Speaker 1: attached to it and somebody just freaking cranking it wide open,
- 11:36Speaker 1: and that balloon and I mean it just like your
- 11:40Speaker 1: sinus cavity just fills with mute. It is like it
- 11:45Speaker 1: starts training down the back of your throat. You can't breathe,
- 11:49Speaker 1: so you're trying to breathe through your mouth and you're
- 11:50Speaker 1: trying to swallow, and its you up and then you're
- 11:54Speaker 1: blind your corneas or just purning, like your skin burns.
- 11:59Speaker 1: Like all you want is just to make this stop now.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Some guys it doesn't affect whatsoever. Some guys can still
- 12:06Speaker 1: fight to Some guys are just so angry. They're raised
- 12:09Speaker 1: like it doesn't even register on them. You know, they'll
- 12:11Speaker 1: pay for it later, but during that moment, yeah, they
- 12:15Speaker 1: can still fight. They can still whoop fast, do whatever.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Most guys, most people, you get hit in the face
- 12:22Speaker 1: directly with that OC spray, you're going down, and you're
- 12:24Speaker 1: going down pretty damn quickly. It really is effective. So
- 12:31Speaker 1: he lies on his stomach and an officer tells him
- 12:33Speaker 1: to put his hands behind his back. The dude does it,
- 12:38Speaker 1: you know. So the CEO speaks into his radio and
- 12:41Speaker 1: he calls it over to the watch commander's office. One
- 12:44Speaker 1: on one O c used, that just means a one
- 12:48Speaker 1: on one fight, and you know, the pepper spray, the
- 12:53Speaker 1: OC has been used. So now the watch commander is
- 12:58Speaker 1: aware that they just had, you know, a physical assault
- 13:02Speaker 1: and that you know, spray had to be used. So
- 13:05Speaker 1: they're going to call for medical to come, you know,
- 13:07Speaker 1: help the guy with the spray and so on and
- 13:09Speaker 1: so forth. If need be. They you know, they might
- 13:13Speaker 1: need to shut the prison down, they might need to
- 13:15Speaker 1: go on lock to deal with this situation. It just
- 13:18Speaker 1: all depends. So that's that's all that is right there.
- 13:20Speaker 1: He's just letting his immediate superiors know what time it is.
- 13:25Speaker 1: So the CEO he handcuffs the inmate, and you know,
- 13:30Speaker 1: the dude is, you know, like he's squirming a little bit,
- 13:32Speaker 1: like it burns, like I'm just telling you right now,
- 13:34Speaker 1: like you don't want to get hit in the face
- 13:36Speaker 1: with his stuff. And that's where the clipping is. You know,
- 13:47Speaker 1: was it a setup, was it an accident. At the
- 13:52Speaker 1: end of the day, it's irrelevant. It happened, and it
- 13:57Speaker 1: happens more than you think it would. But I hope
- 14:01Speaker 1: you enjoyed, hope you enjoy watching the video. Hopefully we
- 14:05Speaker 1: can get more of this stuff up, you know, to
