EPISODE GUIDE |
LOCKDOWN III
Tuesday @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
In the style of the first and second seasons, we’ll go behind
bars to capture the drama and tension brimming within a prison’s
walls, this time including an episode on an international prison.
Compelling characters, dramatic video of violent clashes, covert inmate
rules and secret codes of justice—we’ll penetrate these
fortresses and capture a glimpse of a culture otherwise off limits
to those on the outside. |

LOCKDOWN III: GANG VS. FAMILY
Tuesday 1 July @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
 In
Utah, a homegrown gang battles larger national gangs for turf. But
this gang is different - their loyalty is so extreme that membership
passes from generation to generation and members put the gang first
- no matter what cost. Their wars spill into the state's only maximum-security
prison: Utah State Prison. Over one in four of the 4,000 plus inmate
population have gang ties... |

LOCKDOWN III: NEWBIES
Tuesday 8 July @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
 Wyoming
stows their worst inmates in the isolated prairie town of Rawlins,
but it is so isolated, not enough people live there to staff the Wyoming
State Penitentiary. Wyoming went to extreme measures, recruiting officers
from areas elsewhere in the U.S. Thirty new recruits came to Rawlins
with one thing in common: none of them had law enforcement experience
to help them police the prison's murderers and rapists. We follow
three new recruits... |

LOCKDOWN III: TENT CITY
Tuesday 15 July @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
 Inmates
are held in outdoor pens separated from the desert elements –
that swing between 130 degrees in the summer to well below freezing
during the winter - by only their Korean War-era group tents. The
country prides itself on keeping jail costs low, conditions primitive
and making inmates labour for their care and feeding in the nation's
only chain gang. |

LOCKDOWN III: INMATE UNIVERSITY
Tuesday 22 July @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
 Ironwood,
set in the middle of the California desert, is a series of extremes.
Over-crowded, understaffed and subject to brutally hot summers, tensions
at this prison seem to rise with the thermometer. But there is a group
of inmates among the 4,800 incarcerated at Ironwood dedicated to self-improvement.
Those taking part face stiff opposition from their gangs to attend
classes... |

LOCKDOWN III: FIRST TIMERS
Tuesday 29 July @ 11:00pm HK/SIN
 Iowa
separates its youth offenders from their hardened adult prison population,
housing the young convicts at Fort Dodge, in the middle of the Iowa
prairie. Put 1100 young medium security convicts together, and you
have a breeding ground for trouble - everything from foolishness to
gang violence. With the look of a high school, Fort Dodge juggles
a mix of inmates - racially divided gangs, lower functioning inmates,
a handful of juveniles - all on the same yard. |
