Part 4/7:
Pinson, who has served a 20-year sentence for threatening a former president, claims to have seen Nassar entering a cell occupied by gang members. The circumstances surrounding these interactions, as described by Pinson, suggest a dual purpose—wherein protection comes at the cost of Nassar's dignity and possibly further victimization—which resonates with the brutal realities of prison culture.

The exchanges occurring behind closed doors in prison often spark a debate about credibility. While some may question Pinson's motives given his own criminal background, others argue that the relationship dynamics among inmates, particularly those with controversial charges like Nassar’s, tend to perpetuate a cycle of exploitation and dominance.
