- Surveillance video recorded inside Rikers Island shows what attorney Eric Burse said is one of many fight nights inside the jail. On the video, inmates are crowded around a sell where Burse says the fight is happening inside, “cheering, you know, throwing their arms up in the air as if it's some kind of Vegas boxing match.”
I've been on rikers and all of those inmates are telling the truth. I dated a correction officer on rikers years after being a inmate there. And she quit because of corruption. She was a good person
she was a good person to YOU. wtf was this bitch doing talking to you when she is a correctional officer
@DreamWarrior 1st off watch ya mouth. She ain't nobody's bitch. She was a good woman even if I'm not with her anymore. I was not a inmate when I met her. She she wasn't a correction officer when I met her. She was working in health care. She went into the academy to make more money and I supported her. And she knew about my past and never judged me because of it. She was from the Bronx. So she knew what dudes from the streets were about. I was no longer in a criminal lifestyle. I was able to give her a edge as far as what she would be dealing with when she took the job. She got assigned to rikers Island. And she wasn't a mean person and she didn't judge people based on things she treated people according to how they treated her. I explained to her how housing units are run by certain inmates. And those inmates will be the ones to help you keep order. And she saw it 1st hand. What she was not prepared for was the corruption she faced from so called fellow officers and it wasn't something she could deal with because she wasn't in position to change anything being a new officer. But she told me how officers abused their power 1st hand being on the other side. When she tried to help inmates with things like toilet paper and getting there pen numbers so they could call their families when other officers didn't give a fuk and didn't do the jobs they where hired to do on purpose. She saw mentally ill inmates get abused by C.O.s that shouldn't have been mixed up with criminals in the 1st place. A inmate set himself on fire because he was mentally ill and she ran to report it to the other officer and he said "let him burn". And that's what made her quit the job. Before you judge somebody by being rude learn how to ask a simple question. Because it could be you in a bad situation and you would hope that a person like her that's actually honest and cares about people would be there to help you. Have a nice day.
@@therealsyxx well said. He dint hear you tho but we do!
It should be a pretty peaceful place since it's full of innocent sweethearts falsely imprisoned by a racist justice system
@EsotericOccultist who said that? Some people absolutely positively unequivocally should be locked up. But they does not negate the innocent or the people over charged by this racist justice system. It's a retarded and absolutely lazy way of thinking.
The prison system is broken on some many levels the COs be just as bad as the inmates
Not broken, doing exactly what it was designed to do.
You got that right and what a shame.
The COs must be getting kick backs from illegal shet that goes in there.
@@lanreoshisami8934 some of them COs let it go down till it gets too wild ...
The prison system is made for eternal punishment. Its not made to make criminals comfortable.
Rikers guards are ruthless fam..
I have worked with a former female CO just yesterday. I kid you not. She told me that working there taught her that everything is corrupt
Them same co that’s giving that smoke on the island, you’ll see them the same ones out here in the city and give them that same smoke. Eye for an eye!
@@shaesco8259 my juveniles never gave me smoke on the street. Nutin but love.
Funny shit . NYC have fight nights set up by they veteranos and fear for they life lol 😆 😂 🤣 . Don't get locked up out here in Cali homie. Race Riots happens on the daily ese !
CO’s and the Turtles are no Joke. I remember 4 main “house of pain” like it was yesterday. Out of all the fights I’ve been in on the island,nobody hit me harder than one of the turtles. This one hit me so hard with his riot shield I had a headache for three days
What's sad is dude is fighting his charges from home and if he gets charged he goes right back in there or upstate. Once the gangsters upstate find out he the one telling it's quiet for him
He's a punk Sign in!! People don't understand criminal subculture! Get down or lay Down..Hahaha

Everyone saying he is a criminal but don't know his circumstance. Did yall know that what is considered to be self defense in alot of states is actually attempted murder in New York? For example in Florida you are aloud to tell someone aggressive to back up and if they continue to confront you, you can kill them. It's called "Stand Your Ground Law". But in New York if 5 guys approached you and asked for your necklace and threaten to beat your ass if you don't give it up, you are not aloud to defend yourself with deadly force.
Then why live in that shit hole
There is a video of him and his friends beating up an elderly person...🤦🏾♂️

He got on the news and snitched . He just made his time a lot worse
What's so funny is Dominic didn't mind knocking a guy out and peeing on him but cried when he got what was his due
Say what now?
Edit: i didn’t get to that part of the vid when I replied.
Exactly, not to mention his attempted murder charge. Just because he's fighting it doesn't mean he's innocent.
He was forced to do it from the corrections officer smart guy
@@lwrncjms that guy who got him didn't piss on him they stabbed the cry baby eye out there is a difference
@@lwrncjms that’s what he’s saying, That’s a oddly specific thing for someone to be forced to do after a fight like I think he was force to earn he’s keep and fight but that pissing thing was him going overboard and now he’s adding that to the list of things they forced him to do
Considering 1300 Correction Officers walked off the job due to working conditions in January 2021, along with those who put their papers in after 20/25 yrs; the 400 from the Academy this month will be far from enough to reduce staffing shortages. Some blame the female CO for not getting involved, but with staffing shortages who else is there to back her up?? Hence why she is talking to them from a distance. She could sound the alarm but with so few Officers staffed to respond, in those long corridors they would only get there in time to place her on an Ambulance to Elmhurst Hospital. If Mayor Adams is serious about Rikers, he will need to have nonstop Academy classes to make up for the 'closing Rikers Plan' by Mayor DeBlasio.
the class was actually 50.
I never understood why women COs are in man jails/prisons. It would make more sense for men to handle the men...and women to handle the women. Like common sense. But idk. Whatever

💯FACTS!!
Straight up
Everybody wanna be a gangster, until it’s time to do gangster shyt. This “victim” has an extensive record for violent, weapons & gang related charges. He was a threat to public safely and terrorizing his neighborhood. Now he landed himself in jail & wants to be treated with respect and wants to be safe.
I’m sorry that you had to learn the hard way that jail is not a place that you want to be and jail will never be a safe place.
Right.. stay ya ass out of jail!
Exactly screw him!
Yup he crying now smh
Short,sweet and simple. The basics.
What’s his name? He really an extensive record or you just saying shit?
Dude gotta move from NY… if he goes back, he probably won’t leave… I wish dude the best, if his story is true, but this is a dangerous play here
Why would anyone want to be a corrections officer there. That has to be the worst job in New York
Pulling in 70k a year easy thats why 12 hr shifts some work for days straight and this was back in 2000 my dorm officer had benz,beamer& maserati keys and all the men do is mess with the women co's and inmates
The job has a great pension
These people can’t get a job anywhere else
Preach brother 💯
Do you need a college degree to work there as a question officer?
Every person employed at that place who was a part of this shit should be charged. NO way should stuff like this go on.
Go save em tiger
All you do is type type type
Corrupt co’s is not new new’s on rikers. There needs to be sting operations to crack down on the illegal activity by prison officials
FR
My uncle was locked up in rikers back in like 04, I swear to God he said that the gaurds made them fight. No lie. Here we are 18 years later.
Let this be a warning to any criminals reading this message, can't feel sorry for people who terrorize there neighborhood whith violence and drugs good luck and protect yourself at all times.
Criminals come out more bitter & battle harden,not good.
Its scheduled fights like boxing matches
Typical I ain't nvr did anything wrong holier than thou attitude
@@jordanflores5687 Yeah, doing something wrong ok...but attempted murder? Totally different subject guy.
Dude rikers is a jail…these ppl Havnt been convicted of any actual crime yet they are awaiting trial.
If you are doing this in jail that means the judge is going to work for no reason. You should get 5 + for flight night.
The Mayor knows what going on and he needs to clean house/ rehire retired drill sergeants from the military to straighten up that prison & all prisons
Dump the trouble makers in solitary so that they have no power under their belt. As for NYC, they need CCW.
True
@Devin Cheater I bet you won't be saying that if you were in Rikers but instead commending my words for better personal to protect the 1st time offenders that now regret what they did & have a chance to change there life for the better.
In New York shooting a group of men who are jumping you for your Rolex is considered attempted murder. New York Laws are different so, to say this guy is a criminal, yall know nothing about his court case. Let's not assume he is a ruthless man.
And then when they finally get let out they’re going to let out a person who is frustrated highly aggressive and too under skilled to employ.. these are the same people who keep committing more crimes
Regardless of what he did or didn’t, Their shouldn’t be fight nights.
Why not? You support MMA and UFC right?
@@barithekid not really. I’m not really about that violent life. Also, Those fighters choose to do it and are most likely in a safer place than jail.
Lmfaoooo how u pee on somebody but now U crying 😂😂son is actin
Lol now these tuff guy on the streets of nyc ain't that tuff in jail 😂😂
You also have correction officers that have inmates that are family members in the facility. And those inmates are very well protected Rikers Island correctional officers they all need to be reformed. You even have gang members wearing the uniform.
101% facts
Sounds like NYCHA!
Now that it isn’t a 81 year old man he don’t wanna play no more
He was tryna kill people on the street now he’s scared of what really goes on in prison 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ come on man, man up you was tough out here on the streets get ready for what comes behind that which is life in prison 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

@@foundationalblackamerican1682 fr
It's almost like jail is a bad place to go.
Yeah I feel sorry for him, he got criminals and the officers at him for snitching. He definitely better hope he beats that case.
Nothing could happen to him anymore because is more obvious they could get in trouble
@@ozkino4047 "Trouble" what they gonna do throw em in Jail? NewFlash. They Dont Care
Theyre gonna stab the shit out of that guy if he doesn’t beat the case he basically just went on tv and snitched
I don't feel sorry for him. Who did this Coward almost kill, to be put in prison? He's crying like a baby now, but he didn't care about his victim. Nothing to see here folks, just a POS getting Karma served for lunch.
😂😂😂. Stop snitching kids. Or you a be next getting beat stabbed and crying while continuing to snitch on live t.v😂😂😂😂
Someone needs to do something about this. I was on the island in 92 and even then the CO’s and gang members had this thing called Friday or Saturday night main event like the WWF used to have. Instead of wrestling it was straight up fighting Boro vs Boro. The CO’s and inmates would bet on who would win. If you didn’t get up and represent your Boro they forced you to or get jumped. Look how many years later and it’s the same.
When I was there...
I wanted to fight with a guy..
Who called me a coward.!!!
But..
I was scared.
All of these wannabe gangsters should be burned at the stake.
Them coward ass Cos set that type of environment in there he not lying n they get other sell out inmates to try n cut or stabb u I survived by being a warrior n standing on my two feet jus to stay alive n this is in 96-97-98 years
Yea but when ni**as got 10 or 15 deep with baldes at the Taylor center, its gonna Take more than a warrior to survive.
If you do the crime ✊🏻 Make sure your ready to fight through your jail time 🖕🏻 Jail isn't a holiday camp . It's a battlefield for them to make a serious name for themselves
Man this happens in every jail/prison. Let me tell you its better than a vegas fight! These nights were the best ones.
here's an Idea, Stop going to jail. 🤷♂️
It's that simple,couldn't put it no better
I remember going to rikers at 19 … the first C.O that was at the entrance . Kept asking what gang was I affiliated with …from then & there I knew not to trust them c.o’s…lol . Shit is crazy you can trust the inmates more than a officer … It’s insane
Hell yeah you can’t trust them they will get you fucked up. They was asking you so they can put you in a rival gang house.
They ask everyone that Lmfaooo
@@thomaspiare300 but not how I was being asked .
@@thomaspiare300 you can tell by how they acted towards you asking weird questions throwing up gang signs
They ask that so they can house you with ur gang. Now if u come as an a**hole tuffguy then well they can house you with ur enemies so all you are is a plate of food.
Time to shutdown Rikers for good! People need to remember that these people have not been convicted of a crime. They are waiting to go to court! They shouldn't die or be in danger for their lives....there still human beings!
It's funny how they're so quick to trust an attempted murderer. And even if it's true he should not be allowed to be free fighting his case.
That’s not how america works you immigrant. Innocent until proven guilty.
tear Rikers down like they did Lorton....its beyond fixable
They are understaffed and no amount of recruitment can change that.
This dude is crying about prisoners threatening to kill gum while he’s facing an ATTEMPTED MURDER charge? 🤦🏾♂️
I agree that since we are supposed to be civilized, we shouldn’t have barbaric prison conditions… but sending him home is just not the move!
I honestly don’t feel bad for people like him, I feel bad for his victim and anyone who has to be near him out in society.
Civilized my ass. If a child molestor was disemboweled by the other inmates in prison the people outside of prison will be satisfied he got punished that way. People may look civilized but their thoughts are not.
Innocent until proven guilty you immigrant. You people should have stayed in your communist countries.
@@foundationalblackamerican1682 😂 I’ve never lived in or even been to a communist country. Born and raised in the USA.

Lmao free an attempted murderer? Cause of fighting? Not switch his jail house? Just let him completely free? Lmao i swear NYC has no laws
Switching jail house isnt going to do anything. When them kites fly, ni**as die.
Sad but that's normal I went through that during my era in there in 96-97-98
I was in the 5 building around 2015, the 90s was wild in the island from what I’ve heard, you must’ve seen some shit
Tryna tell em
Some real life undisputed boyka shit
This is nothing compared to the 80s and 90s
Went to rikers also in august of 1997 and that shit was no joke at all
Why only blame on the DO when it is your own ppl beating you too? Seem like another jogger trying win the lottery
🤣 he's definitely chasing the bag
I was kinda hoping the dept of corrections statement would be about how they’re investigating. Not like theres an indicator bar saying how complete the investigation is or anythings happening but itd make everyone feel better right?
Nothing in this video is surprising to me unfortunately this has been going on in Rikers for decades.
And its not going to change.
@@jbilla5276 They didnt show the dudes getting the cheeks clapped. Like, that was the best part about spending the summer in rikers. All that roughed up chocolate. Spectacular.
That’s crazy, you did the crime, now you getting what came back on you!
I hope he’s telling the truth about he’s innocent!!
Why is there only 1 woman CO over there for?? Not to be sexist...but I never got why women COs are in men jails and prisons anyway. It just makes sense for them to handle the women. Like common sense. 🤷♂️
Everyone is gonna look at him as a snitch...I feel bad for the guy,but he has to leave Nyc...he's done
THIS LOOK LIKE A HOMELESS SHELTER FOR BLACK AND SPANISH FOLKS !
This is unacceptable, I want all CO's involved to be charged, and become inmates!
Really ? What exactly do you want them to do if staff is limited , they have to navigate through all the chaos and etc , not saying it’s acceptable but come on you really want them to be inmates also ?
@@richardwalker6004 Its simple. Have more guards than inmates so they can prevent rapings, beatings and stabbings from happening.

Dorm rooms need to be shut down. Only one cell per inmate should be. You eat in cell and stay locked down 24/7.
That will make things worst
Keep them locked up all day tf they out for😐 if everyone's so scared
It’s only 365 days in a year my guy. How in the hell did 1500 assaults occur in a controlled environment…..
Their so innocent. Great and innocent kids. They were all on the right path until they got arrested for going to work or school
The co’s was getting drilled by one of the prisoners 😭 she was enjoying it
If it's so bad, why do they keep letting them out of their cells?
You wont be smiling on rikers island💀

And the public thinks it's just the inmates wildin' out, but in truth it's the staff members (getting paid BY THE TAX PAYERS DOLLARS) pitting inmates against each other!! This shit is SO corrupt! Why the fuck are they allowed to hold "detainees" for months or years WITHOUT a trial? Isn't that a breach of Due Process or something?
Were these criminals thinking about the people who they hurt or killed and they have rights?
These guys go to jail act like they about it when karma comes to collect the guy crying wolf know its what u get when u a bully.u deserve what u do to others
Is this new corrections commissioner an undercover Latin King or Trinitario?
Regular imprisonment activities throughout time and space.
It's so disgusting that black people really don't like each other. Why you stab him in the eye and then gonna continue to threaten his safety. Wtf 😒
That been going on for years..... WOOOOOW ....... They just finding out about that....
They need to just close rikers
They can't do that.
I’m so glad I don’t commit crimes.

So did I and I’m white I got my ass beat but fought like a man… And I had a bull crap misdemeanor this is bull he’s in for attempted murder either man up or end it because that’s life.. Dint want to go to jail don’t break the law… Its not supposed to be fun… So called gangsters 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. And I never hurt nobody except myself I had petty drug charges so sorry not sorry!!!!!
Thanks that's a fact nobody have heart anymore. At the end of the day the nigga chose that path now he want to cry like a bitch.
