Attempted Murder
©Jack:
Behind the Wall
I relieved Officer James in tower thirteen. He had been stabbed fifteen
times while working in housing unit four, an honor house. I asked him
what happened.
"I was sitting on that table outside of the office door. A couple of
guys on an upper tier started yelling at me, trying to distract me, when
Greenfield came around the corner from the stairwell with a shank taped
in each hand. I jumped up, and he was coming at me, swinging. I grabbed
my radio with the lapel mike to yell for help, but he slashed at it.
Wires were hanging out all over and I didn't know if anyone could hear
me or not, but I played it like they could. I was very official. "10-5!
Officer needs assistance in four house!"
It turns out I was getting through. He backed me up the length of the
house to the stairwell that goes down to the shower room. I didn't
realize I was there and I went over backwards in a summersault. I
cracked my knee and landed on my head. He came running down the stairs
to finish me off.
I've got a wife and two kids and I made up my mind I was going home to
them. I grabbed one of those shower bars, pulled myself up, and kicked
him in the jaw. That slowed him up some and when he came at me again, I
kicked him in the leg. I didn't think that would do much good, but he
had a metal plate in his leg from a couple of years ago and I guess I
loosened up a couple of bolts. He turned and ran back up the stairs with
me chasing after him. Inmates were lining the railings of the walks
chanting, "Kill him! Kill him!" I thought, "Oh, Lord, how am I going to
be able to deal with this?" but the door was still open from main line,
(Dinner), and help started pouring in.
The investigators said it was a contract hit. Someone had paid him to
kill Sgt. Francis. Do I look like Sgt. Francis? I've got a blue shirt.
He has a white shirt! DUH!"
