No one else has a pair of Nikes.

But, yeah, problems just look for you.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

It's very hard to stay neutral.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Right.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Back then, there wasn't too many gangs, but there was groups of people like, you know, this group of traficantes, this group of robbers, you know, but it wasn't like gang like it is now.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast

Like now they're all like cartels and these gangs are ran by the cartels.

How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Yeah, I would say when we were almost finished, so I would say two to three hours we would pop up.

on the other side of the of the double walls and um that was just like a calculation it could have been less it could have been more but i was we were pretty close because we could walk from the window of my cell all the way to the first exterior wall and then underneath in the tunnel you could do the same thing we'd walk and we'd count the steps we measure it so you know we knew we were just about there it was just popping up in the right spot that's all

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Yeah.

During the riot, it was a lot more risky because there was a lot of police officers outside.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Coverage outside the prison was insane.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

And inside, there was nothing.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

I mean, madness going on inside and outside.

How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

All the police officers are there and they're like playing volleyball or playing soccer on the field.

Matthew Cox | Inside True Crime Podcast
How He Survived 7 Years in the World’s Toughest Prison

You know, they don't care what's going on.
