NM PRISON RIOT Ep. 1 | “Warning Signs”
Rumors of violence at the Penitentiary of New Mexico escalate throughout January of 1980. On January 31, Intelligence Officer Larry Flood calls a high-profile meeting to discuss the rising chatter about a hostage takeover of the prison. Efforts to uncover a plot have come up empty. Attendees vow to remain vigilant. Then, less than 36 hours later, inmates in a medium security dormitory attack four guards in the middle of the night and begin the most violent prison riot in American history.
