And said there were several days where there was no water in the cells and they were laukd in the cells all day. >> you speak to some of the people there, they hadnt showered for three days. i can only imagine what it felt like when there were arctic temperatures or when it got cold and there was no heat and no lights. >> reporter: its an emergency? >> pretend this is your house or 1600 people live there, you get fixed. the lack of urgency fl the humanity of the entire police was appalling. >> r...

>> congress has a role to play here. what happened to the emergency response plan? was this the tone set from above? we have a president that told police dont worry about being careful with the prisoners. bang their heads and these are people just been arrested. >> reporter: you think its a trickle down from donald trump down? >> no question about it. if you believe your president has no respect and regard for communities of color or people who are incarcerated, youre going to behave in a way th...
