- Watch 'Nancy Grace Behind Bars,' a two-night special event airing June 5 & 6 on HLN.During her journey behind bars at the Estrella Jail, Nancy Grace spoke with six female inmates about their strict eating schedule and the food they are served. See how these women use their resources to spice up their meals. For more information please visit www.hlntv.com/v...
The fact that she has the inmates on chairs and she,as the interviewer is on the floor speaks volumes. She made them not only very comfortable to open up to her but she placed them on a much higher level than her, seemingly to give them self worth, remind them they are still humans and worth while. Commendable.
Somehow I have to disagree with you. Although yoir insights do make sense... Putting yourself down to rise someone up sounds like something someone who has low self respect would do. They where demonstrating how to "spice the food up". Therefore they have to be on a chair. Kind of like when you watch a musical, they are the stage. The interviewe's choice to be on the floor is a choice. No need to put to much insight into it.
Oh wow she's amazing down to earth...did you know she grew up on a farm?
maybe she didn't want a chair
B Jay...you´re correct. Sitting on the floor like Oprah was and crossed legged, means she´s open to ideas, involvement and is carefree, as well as emotionally flexible.
B Jay yeea i would've placed them 6ft under.
when this is basically what we eat at school
nugget preach
School food is a lot better thank this crap.
Amira M lol not at my school we get stale rotten and freezer burnt stuff
Packed lunch m8
nugget stuff and school is so much worse
"Big ole orange"? That's a god damn grape fruit. lmfao
i was thinking that!
+Mata Tuidraki She didn't get the food the inmates eat.She got the security's snack.
Raymond Rodriguez lmfao💀😭

I get that they are prisoners and some criminals, but they shouldn't have to choose between food poisoning or starving. Its common human decency
Julie Nalay Yeah that’s how it is no one is gonna treat a murderer or a criminal with some respect, the fuck
Come Play With Us !! here's the thing though what about the people who've done a small crime or have been falsely convicted
@Michael VR fuck you
You want to eat anything you like stay the fuck out of prison.
+Scarlett Whisperer ASMR Prison is not suppose to be a place to make your dreams come true they make it like shit so you do not want to go back so I feel no pain for there misery and you should take your own advice and STFU.
Big Baller there is also innocent people in jail
☼YouBetterWerkItYooooooo☼ SOMEONE FINALLY MENTIONS THIS THANK YOU
☼YouBetterWerkItYooooooo☼ They are all innocent in prison just ask them.
Big Baller There are ACTUAL innocent people in prison. false photo line up choices, or just by police picking the wrong person just because they fit the "description" .Im not saying all of them are innocent
school lunch is basically cardboard with toppings on it
Lacey Clifton lol
School lunch is good tho fr
You forgot the part where the freeze it for 7 billion years and put it in the microwave for 5 seconds.
Lacey Clifton my school makes mac and chees with chees wiz and noodles
My school gives me messed up pizza EVERY Thursday and the cheese is hard and everything is stale.....
All they are doing is talking over each other.
PaiNExoTiC emdkk
Kimtothekizzo typical women 😆
Kimtothekizzo like most Americans do
Monika Pordan like most Europeans do fuck you
I understand that they committed crimes and such. but food that is rotten will end up killing them or making them sick in which it costs the state more money to take care of them..
I agree. prison isn't supposed to be comfy but come on, old food? really?
diego hermosillo exactly ! Prison isn't supposed to be fun but they are still human beings. Prison is meant to rehabilitate criminals, not kill them.
they should have thought about that before doing whatever they did
+Nathan Gale
people change. what about them?
Get rekt jail is meant to be bad to make people not want to commit crimes and come back anymore
Yes they did something wrong but they are still human and they shouldn't be feed something that's moldy it doesn't belong on their tray it belongs in the trash point end blank
Agreed making one bad mistake doesn't make them less human.
+Another Insane person it was probably more than one bad mistake
having been to jail I never once saw moldy bread or rotten fruit. thats just dumb. the food there at worst reminded me at times of like a tv dinner. it's really not as bad as they are making it out to be at all here.
Eames Trinh that makes no sense justify is not the right word to use but don't ask me what word to use don't act smart
Having just gotten out of jail last month, I can tell you we were never given moldy food, but we were given stale food many times. Like bread that has been sitting out on the counter for days. Bologna that has been dried out in the fridge and cold food when it should be hot.
bruh ik they did bad things but nobody deserves that. 😢 as a fat person speaking i almost cried watching this.
😹
OMG LOLLL
These people, no matter what crimes they've committed, have a right to edible food that they can stomach. Tasteless or flavourless food is one thing, but rotten, moulded food is out of the question. It's a crime to serve that to a living, breathing person.
malnutrition is part of the security program you can't run if you're starving,you're not gonna go on the lam for 3 days because you'll die
@@Aaron-zu3xn You are more likely to start fights and be aggressive to staff and other inmates if are hungry and not getting enough rest in a half way decent bed, most jails have mattress's that are so flat that you are sleeping on the steel bunk and no pillow.
I agree…but tax dollars shouldn’t prioritize how tasty jail food should be…if it meets the nutrition requirements then it’s okay.
And the crimes they committed do matter. If someone was scamming people credit cards, or stealing catalytic converters…I could really give a rats ass if they gave them peanuts and beef fat for their sentence…
@@chawklitWarrior it doesn't meet the values though, most if not all only give the proper value of food on inspection day's, that they are told what day it is a head of time. The others day's it's far less food so they can pocket the savings.
Before you get all "Club Med" or "Taj Mahal" in your reply, I am in no way suggesting plush conditions. That said, I have never understood the mentality of "They're in prison, therefore they don't deserve good food, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms, etc." There are a lot of people in prison for non-violent crimes. There are also innocent people in prison. And even for the hard criminals, how has feeding them shitty food, and making them sit in day old piss while they shit, helped them "learn their lesson"? Being locked up, taken away from all of the freedoms, family, friends, your job is something that most of these people deserve, absolutely. But we taxpayers are spending way too much $ for these prisoners to live in such filthy and poor conditions. Even prisoners can be treated humanely, while serving a deserved sentence.
I agree with you. If them losing their freedom alone isn't going to scare them away from committing a crime, then nothing will so I don't get why people think making prison conditions tougher is going to help lower the recidivism rate.
Man what you expect ? A gourmet meal ? Stay outta jail if you don't like it
But wait it gets even worse SCHOOL LUNCHES dun dun dun
Matthew Pastorin lol
Matthew Pastorin gotta be spoiled to not like school lunches
Carlos mendez I freaking said SCHOOL LUNCHES. not school I actually need school..
Matthew Pastorin ok.. That's one meal... Try having that 3 times a day for years..
apearl420 I have actually for 5 years
Man that shit looked better than the food I used to get at school, shit was always stale as hell and cold
Matt Shelton
My fries ain't even cooked just a raw chopped up potato
this is something that should be brought to the judge because rotten and moldy food is against human rights but just because your food taste gross if it's not rotten or rancid or spoiled in any way it's not cruel and unusual punishment.
Their word against the judges.
+BigEvan96 Yup and if you get an inspection started. They always get a HEADS UP and clean up their act in time. CT Law requires 24 hours notice...Which is bullshit
How is it in prison you still get such complicated haircuts? I always figured they would just shave you like boot camp for sanitation reasons or something.
Nicholas Musser how did they get makeup in prison
Crisscross idk they're family's give them they're makeup from home or something I have no idea buddy
they use color pencils for eye liners.
trusts get the privilege of doing shit like giving people haircuts. they get paid for it and haircuts are usually scheduled. at least that's how it was when I was in jail.
Other inmates cut each others hair. You think hairdressers don’t go to prison?
Did anyone else wonder while watching this video what those women where doing time for? They all seemed like such nice people. Just curious...
Maybe drugs.
You can go to jail for alot shit
You've never met a con in real life. Can be the most beautiful, down to earth, always smiling, gets along with everyone. Then go home and rape or murder people in their free time. You can't judge a person by their demeanor only their actions.
Not saying these women are bad people just that they are where they are for a reason. Could be aggravated assault, robbery, or murder.
Shit food but they have access to heavy makeup? Lol
They usually make their own makeup, or buy the cheap ass dollar store makeup from commissary.
Glitter Nails nbhjnn
tattooed makeup
Usually there's cheap make up on commissary or we'd use colored pencils and dip them in hot water to make makeup. We'd usually wear to court or something. Lmaoooo
its inevitable in a social environment, prison or not, individuals will try and stand out in a way to establish a sense of importance, so its no surprise they use crayons and pencils and water to make makeup
You don't have to go to jail to try jail food you can go to school
angela zabran my school has good food
Demarioshow1 mine too
school lunch is good
Elementary food is trash though
angela zabran
Elementary school lunch is shit. Middle school and high school is a lot better.
And that's why you shouldn't commit a crime.... I mean you could have totally avoided going to jail, and avoid eating this "slop" like me!
+Annie Yu if they did what they did on Human Centipede 3, Jails be almost empty!!!
What if some of them were falsely accused
you're probably an overweight middle aged women rotting away in your apartment..
JCB OMG how do you know how I look like, dear internet troll!??! Don't forget I am also your mom, you pig of a son inherited my fatness, poor you.
The Bill of Rights, specifically the eighth amendment, bans cruel and unusual punishment. Some of the food inmates are served can be considered a violation of their basic rights.
At least they get food. There are children starving to death and trying to get jobs smh.
Says the bitch whose name is "Msfrenchcheesecakes". STFU. Think before you speak dumbass.
It's kinda tiring explaining to people that criminals, contrary to popular belief, are human beings as well. If you wanna complain about them "wanting gourmet meals" or "they deserve it for being criminals" I really suggest you educate yourself. Because one, they just want food that won't kill them. And two, most of them are in for nonviolent crimes. Probably about half are in for pot. Some of them aren't even guilty, and awaiting sentencing. And especially the ones in the interview...
It's not a question of if their in jail or whether you believe they have the right to have good food, the question should be...what are they doing with the money that they tax us for...they tell us all about how good they have it but yet that's not what the inmates are saying?? Gosh, do you think it's bull shit?
prisoners don't like their food because their normal food is burgers,meth,cocaine and weed xd
Spoken like a truly ignorant excuse of a person
I've been in jail before(for something I didn't do) and the food there isn't bad at all the inmates complain about the food all the
fucking time and act like it is so bad but it's like dude A. the shit isn't that bad and B. your in jail what do you expect your not going to be getting feed great gourmet dinners.
Nuke hound i guess cuz alot of american allways eat at reastraunts, and when its home made, there not used to it, same with school...
Let me tell you, the shit in American schools isn't home made lol
Lucifer yes but its not ur reastraunt food, but it is usually better than home made food, like theres burgers and lesagnia and tacos
Ruslan Kostenko Mine? Restaurant food? I make food for my son all the time, home made I've been to his school and eaten with him. The shit they serve in schools isn't home make, usually pre packaged or just warmed up.
Lucifer its junk food and tastes 10 times better than healthy food i eat at my house, were talking about food
glad our tax money ain't going to serve them a "feast"😂
If our tax money were not wasted on harboring people for petty crimes such as using drugs, then we would be spending far less in the first place.
I'd rather know our tax dollars are really being used, because sometimes they're really not being used like they should be.
Has judgmental as Nancy can be.....I appreciated her humbled kindness and lack of judgement for these women.
They can at least give them a descent meal... Imagine being in there for something you didn't do and serving years and eating rotten food😟😟
I'm sorry, but if you break the law this is the punishment. That's what prison and jail is, it's punishment. Of course they're not going to care about giving you a 5 course meal. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
It's not about a five course meal it's about a meal that's at least not going to kill you. Mouldy food can get you very very sick. Lack of nutrition in certain inmates with medical conditions can be life threatening if they're not eating again it's not about giving inmates a life of luxury.
You would be surprised which circumstances in life can land you behind those bars and you will be singing a different tune then.
+Jason Gordon I get that, but I'm sorry, I just think it's part of the punishment. If you don't want to live like that, don't break the law consistently. I can't feel bad for people who brought this on themselves. I know that sounds harsh, but that's just how I feel about it.
+Monica Marie Like I said there are circumstances in life where it wouldn't even be that persons fault why they end up in jail someone would be killed maybe involuntary manslaughter that innocent person will still be going to jail nonetheless not all people in prison went out looking for trouble some have shit luck
They still have human rights and deserve better food than that
They act like they dont deserve that kind of food, they're in prison for a reason. Meanwhile im here doing nothing wrong but im getting the same meal @ school
the food wasn't that bad.y'all are just picky!
I feel like the food there given should depend on their crime like a rapist or murder should be served shit but smaller crimes normal food
"normal food" so you're saying that food that isn't even edible anymore should be served to someone who commit a severe crime? Man the US is probably one of the most fucked up country with their views on gun rights, their prison laws, their police violence, their way of making a few refugees sound like a huge number or the divided country that can't even have a solid stance on anti-racism, really the worst place if you're looking for freedom if you ask me XD
xlInYouFace Are you saying you think child rapists should be served decent food?
TheMistyclover yes, like everyone who is in prison should. But the US is one of a kind so I can't say aything for them.
it is already a bit like that tho, people with less serious crimes don't go to maximum security..
im sorry, were they expecting gourmet meals in prison?
lol. yes it was.
Ivelisse Concepcion no but they expect to be treated like human beings. They feed them ROTTEN food and prisons often get the scrap meat for slather houses that isn't sold to places like McDonalds or Dog Food companies.
sucks to be them
Keyboard warrior much?
sure
That correctional officer in the bet taking in all their secrets like BET
I've been locked up there and it was literally HELL
Does this work for school food too?
yes
+orange rapids yes it does
watching this makes school lunch look better .....
You're in jail.... How food tastes is the least of your worries....
Right its the toilets
taste is secondary to nutritional value, but low quality and even rotten food has been served in prisons and that clearly is a problem cause the risk of getting sick and being malnourished is a real problem.
12 hours between meals ? That's dangerous for diabetics and heart sufferers .
what am I doing I've got homework to do
They should pass a bill stating that a prison should give a 20$ spending limit on food only for all prisoners.
Like if you agree.
Ur cruel/...
Not the whole prison
The whole cell of a prison.
code lyoko 34 What? the whole cell?
Yeah cause food ain't cheap you know.
lol, that'd just get a lot of guards killed caused by riots over food. but that's good, fuck the pigs anyways.
Well, Maybe next time they'll think about their actions.
Right everyone should think about their own action not such criminal
They clearly know how to spice things up. Can they come to my school please cause I might just die by the end of the year from what they feed us.
I know that they put Raman noodle seasoning on food Thanks Orange Is The New Black
Tv will rot your brain.
They're CLEARLY eating pretty good there!
they deserve it so why they complaining?
Why do you think that they deserve it?
+Isaac Ludu because they broke the law?? Criminals shouldn't be complaining about the quality of their food, they're lucky enough to get 3 meals a day at the expense of tax payers and a homeless dude on the street who didn't choose to be homeless doesn't get jack shit and when he does get something to eat he doesn't complain about it.
+Brandon Miller ever heard of anyone whose been falsly accused?
+Brandon Miller Just wit until you're eating it, I don't think you will have the same attitude! You do realize that people who may be innocent or not even convicted yet are eating shit I wouldn't feed my dog?
+Tankapotamus I have ate it... For 4 months straight. But I put myself in that position and didn't complain about. I feel bad for any women and man that are innocent and have to eat jail food because it really does suck. There's an incredibly small chance that each one of the girls in this segment are innocent.
They shouldn't be giving these people moldy and rotten food. They are still human. They need to eat food that is not going to kill them. Yes, they are in jail for committing crimes, but, no matter what, they shouldn't be getting food that has mold on it, regardless that they are in jail.
that looks nasty as hell
i think its pretty cool that the prison worker is talking to them like she is their friends
What these people eat out of there canteen/comisery in the USA is discusting.
Our food in UK jails is good but what we have in comiseriy is nothing like the USA a few candys, tobacco, milk, tea , coffee & protein food / shakes and thats it. I walked out of jail with more money than I went in with after 3 months as I didnt smoke.
wtf really ?
Thanks I’ll be needing this soon
they choose that life tho deal with it dont be a criminal
Just because they commit a crime, it doesn't mean they should be served rotten food or horrible food that is barely edible.
Well, depending on the crime they committed.
its like school food I don't wanna even say how many times I have gotten stale stuff or spoiled liqueds that shouldn't even be able to go bad...
Lol you ain't in a five star hotel!! Be fkn grateful that you get food! This video fks me off!!
How does making jail food good turn it into a 5 star hotel experience?? And if you think American inmates got it easy, Norway and Denmark inmates are living in hotel like prisons but it's still no picnic for them even.
That's boarders down to cruel and unusual punishment. Just bc they are offenders doesn't mean they should be eat rotten food. Fix these prisons or shut em down!
Shaya Kells they just like to complain, like americans about school lunch
Maybe you shouldn't go to jail then lol
I hate how American jails dehumanize inmates. They are still human.
Well prisioners don't deserve good food. Be thankful you've got food at least!
They don't deserve anything but remember people go to prison for non violent things and some innocent and making them eat gross food doesn't teach them anything that's what the boring cell and long prison time is for you idiot
Isaiah Rivera Yeah, but alot are guilty.
When I was in prison we had something called cracked wheat it was something like oatmeal but different. On the side of the bags that it came in it said not for human consumption, I guess it was really for farm animals only. But they still served it up. It was horrible. Oatmeal with these little things in it that looked like small worms. And it also had these things in it that looked like peices of corn. Nasty shit we had to eat two or three days a week. I always wondered how can they serve it. It says plainly on the side of the bag not for human consumption.
wtf how was that prison not sued by someone, if the FDA knew that woulda been a lawsuit jezuz!! that’s messed up good thing u dont have to deal with that anymore
their food grade is usually above military food grade food.
I was watching a bulldog commercial then my dog started licking his legs😂👌🏼
In my time at school, school food was not much different than prison food.
I put them all in my prayers all the nation. Horrible food so sad in jail.
These people should have better food even if they did a wrong they are still people
When the food there is better than school food.
Damn... if they were in Orange Is the New Black, Red would've been feeding them bloody tampons a loooong time ago for disrespecting her food like that 😂😂
Growing up we’re all told “don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time” but that honestly had never stopped any criminal from committing crimes. If you REALLY want crime to go down, for even just a small percentage: show episodes and documentaries like this to every middle and/or high-school student for a one semester course. Show them the gang wars that occur on a weekly basis, show them the guards in mens prisons that STAND THERE AND WATCH when a fight breaks out and a man is left alone to fight to the death.
And on the final day of the course, take them to the worst prison in the area.
Something tells me a course like that is going to make people think twice.
i mean, what can you expect? you're in jail to learn a lesson, not on vacay 😂
We treat dogs in kennels better at our vet... I worked there
The dogs got such good food the employees tried it... it’s hard not to when a dog is being fed sausages and vegetables
Also... we don’t know why these women are in... some I’m sure are innocent... doesn’t mean they lose their rights to eat edible food
Any health nut will tell u how crucial a good diet is to good mental health. And rehabilitation starts with the mind. *Feed the mind enhance the body.*
Surprisingly the inmates were nice
1:53-2:13
me when my parents asked what i had for lunch at school today
Still sounds better than school lunch
me when im eating at my friends house
SIS MAKES MENUDO IN PRISON??? Oh that’s amazing
People should notice that they are unsentenced inmates...still going thru the court system. Innocent til proven guilty. Sometimes they spend months or yrs locked up in county only to have charges dropped. You do the time regardless. That way the state gets its pound of flesh first.
This is why I don't want to go to jail and there have been times I considered running away from home because I didn't want to go to certain events but I don't want to go to jail so I am being a good kid
why doesn't miss top journalism professionalism actually "pop" in during chow time and she will freaking get her answer sheesh!
Nancy Grace doesn't know what a grapefruit is 😵😂😑 I'm dead. It's a big ol orange
That bowdagger was talking about menudo. Cheese in menudo?! Wt! Lmao!!
I mean they’re prisoners, they shouldn’t expect any expensive food. That’s part of their punishment.
better than most school lunches tbh
the jail food is horrible AND crime is horrible...jail isn't supposed to be the Ritz-Carlton ya'll did something illegal and we're paying for your mistakes in our taxes we aren't paying for you to eat 5 star meals too.
O lord imagine the smell of tuna in that poor room I literally feel bad for the floor n walls
You do something fucked up, you go to jail/prison. You're still a human, just because you made a mistake does not mean you should be treated any less of a human. The point of incarceration is to punish you for a crime, rather than teaching you the correct way to go about things. America has the highest rate of people that get released from jail only to come back within a couple months. I don't think you should be getting 5 star meals in prison, however it is not a "luxury" to be getting a balanced meal of proteins, grains, fruit/vegetables and dairy, especially in a country that wastes so much food. Nobody deserves rotten, moldy food. That's inhumane. Don't get me started on how people end up in prison over petty shit, and how at least 50% of the people there should be on parole rather than 25 to life. The system is fucked, and you can't say shit about it if your little privileged ass hasn't dealt with it.
The system is and has been fucked for decades, but hey, that’s capitalism. It’s rigged for repeat offenders. Most prison systems are private-owned, and just about want inmates to come back.
bet the food is still better than school lunch
They should try the food at my school 😂😂😂
Here is an idea... if you don't want to eat prison food don't go to prison
Rotten food is just off limits. Yeah they're in jail for bad reasons AT LEAST FEED THEM GOOD FOOD THAT INST SPOILED
You're convicts, you don't deserve anything less than the basics. You don't deserve a four course meal, you don't deserve 5 star Michelin meals. you're prisoners. Don't like to eat crap? Don't do the crime.
news lady: it's great
Jail people: try eating it every day
all I can say is don't get your self in that situation if you don't like the food tough luck!
Watching this so i know how to improve the food just in case i ever go to jail
Eat what you are given. Many people and children in this world are starving.
You are now sentenced to watch The Food Channel the rest of your life 10 hours a day!
Talking about cruel and unusual punishment.....
REV 18
The food in the jail i was in wasn't too bad, we use to have hashbrowns in the morning for breakfast(a 4am breakfast)
What are you expecting the food to be? It's a jail!
A BIG OL' ORANGE 😂😂
Everyone's saying f*** them they're in jail so they can't expect good food. Well, firstly, a lot of people go to jail for petty reasons. Now imagine that person was someone you loved. You d want them to have food that they can at least eat. It doesn't have to be good, but moldy or rotten isn't acceptable.
I'm pretty sure if you eat the food for a long time it would get boring to eat
