Prisoner Denies Assault at Hearing on Eve of Release
Mate.
Shh. Fucking pussy, innit?
Everybody, in your cells. Move.
Move, move, move.
Get in your cells now, gentlemen. Come on.
Mate. Get in your cells
now. Come on, move it.
Hey, what the fuck are you doing?
Lock on. Lock on.
Oh, shit. Oh, shit.
It's okay. We'll get, we'll get these screws down.
Charged with assaulting a fellow prisoner.
This adjudication will
determine the truth of the allegation.
If you are found guilty, you'll be awarded additional days to your
sentence and/or
time in isolation. How do you plead?
Not guilty. Look,
my release date's tomorrow, as,
as you know. Why would I do
something so stupid that's
gonna stop me getting out,
hmm?
Never make no
sense. Plus Modi, I know Modi.
Basically a friend of mine.
I respect him, so
he respects me.
Where were you when the attack took place?
I was reading a magazine
in my cell when three screws dragged me out of my
bed and brought me down
here.
You ain't writing that down.
So let me ask you this.
Who does Modi say done it?
Does he say it's me?
I bet he don't.
Does anyone else say it's me?
'Cause if they do,
I got the right to hear
them down here say it in
front of me, to my face.
And if you can't bring anyone
down here, which I don't think you can,
that tells me that you lot ain't got no witnesses.
The assailant used a
plastic bowl to skull the inmate.
He left his fingerprints on the bowl.
Did you find my fingerprints on the bowl?
No. Is that because you use gloves?
No. It's 'cause I didn't do
it. So you ain't got my prints,
no forensics,
no CCTV,
no witnesses,
the victim clearly ain't ID'd me.
What the fuck am I doing here?
You'll be informed of
adjudication's decision tomorrow morning.
I can go?
Good morning.
Good morning.
Can I get your name, date of
birth, and prison number, please.
Gerald Sullivan.
13/02/94.
81910593.
Big day.
I need you to sign a couple of forms
for me, giving you your discharge grant.
If you could sign there and there, please.
Now, how are your relationships with your
friends and family?
Have your relations suffered while you've been in prison?
Because if they have broken down, it's,
it's not too late to build bridges.
If your friends and family know you've
made progress in prison, particularly in
terms of-
... addressing past issues, then-
... addressing past issues, then-
What else have I got to sign, please?
It's important that you don't dismiss that as an option, Sullivan.
Is there anything else?
You can sign there for the discharge grant.
It's £46.
You can count it if you like.
I actually will.
Usain.
Yeah.
Come on, man.
You good?
Yeah, man. I'm good. How are you?
I'm all right.
Good. Good, man.
Looking big.
Look at yourself, mate.
Usain, how was it?
Fucking shit.
Fucking hell, man. You get it
