The Real Con Air (Former Inmate Exposes It All)

Описание: You've seen the movie Con Air. I rode the real Con Air, and in this video I show you exactly how the federal prisoner transport system works from the inside.

The US Marshals run a government airline called JPATS, the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System. Unmarked planes. 265,000 prisoner movements a year. And a secret hub most people have never heard of: the Federal Transfer Center, a federal prison built inside Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City. I went through FTC Oklahoma City in chains, more than once, during my 10 years in federal prison.

This is what no documentary shows you. How you end up on the transfer list with no warning. The 4 a.m. wake-up call. R&D, holding cells, and strip searches. The belly chain, leg irons, and the black box. Eating, and trying to use the bathroom, in full restraints. Diesel therapy, where the system keeps you in transit for weeks as punishment. Landing at the secret airport prison and the inmate science of guessing your destination, because the Marshals never tell you where you're going.

If you want to understand how federal prisoner transport really works, this is the closest you can get without wearing the chains.
