''I have no idea why they did what they did. Some people in the jail suggested it was for money. I never saw any [cash] pass. The guards, they got no big payout. They were stupid and backward. They did it for ... giggles. [Suspected police killer, Lee] Woods was very trans-phobic. He'd see me and say things like he would get me killed. So I started writing inmate statements, telling Correction what I saw. For a long time, they ignored it.... They turned a blind eye to whatever he did. There was a specific time in May when he brandished a shank, a lighter, a scalpel and then lit a fire outside his cell with the lighter.... This is a cop-killer. I would tell the guards, 'OK, I'm transgender. Woo hoo. But this guy would kill you, rob your mother, that's what you have to remember.''

Not only did they ignore the Wood's bad behavior, the fired guards may have supplied him with marijuana and alcohol, a handcuff key, a cellphone sim card, even had sex with the suspect.
