On the 20th October 2007 Jerry Jackson was sent to Reddington prison for first degree murder. His first 6 months inside were rough, but time passed and he slowly adjusted to life inside. He appealed against his sentence during the first six months, but sadly failed to get bail.
The head officer of C section, Jerry's section, Jane Cox has a very formal relationship with her prisoners. She has been serving at the prison for the past ten years and is the most experienced member of staff. Her partner Erik Matthews is a trainee at the prison and the plan is for him to take over Jane's role when she retires. Erik dream has always been to run a prison, he sees becoming head officer a stepping stone to the top. He's a career driven man and is a Harvard graduate.
There is one more person who got sucked into this tragic story. Jerry's lawyer Jonathan Cumberland, the most successful lawyer who ever lived. He never lost a case in 5 years. And so the story begins on a normal day at a normal time in a normal place.
At 10:00am that morning Jonathan had a meeting with Jerry in his cell. "Jerry, if you want to get bail your behaviours got to improve drastically. As it is you're not on the judges best side." "I know , I know but if you want to survive in this place you're going to have to ruffle some feathers if you know what I mean" "Yeah I know but you could try and keep a low profile" "Okay I'll see what I can do but I'm not making any promises". While outside the room Erik and Jane where talking about the possibility of moving Jerry to another prison "He has to go he's too much trouble , there have been three suspicious deaths in the past six months and they've all been somehow linked to him. Come on Jane this isn't coincidence" "I know Erik but there's no solid evidence". As that sentence concluded a thunderous crash was heard. A petrol tanker had crashed through the bottom story of the prison. All hell broke loose as prisoners were trying to escape, there was a huge explosion as the tanker went up in flames. Jerry tried to seize this chance by shoving Jonathan out the way and sprinting towards the stairs. Little did he now that the stairs were weakened by the flames and so they collapsed, with Jerry falling quite a distance and landing on his spine. Erik started to panic as he saw Jerry lying unconscious on the concrete floor.
