Just south of Salt Lake City is the largest maximum-security facility in Utah. Covering almost 700 acres, it houses nearly 4000 inmates, more than one in ten of whom are women. It also has one of the most violent inmate populations in the country and is one of only three facilities in the United States that still offers the option of death by firing squad. MSNBC cameras take you inside the super maximum "jail within a prison." where some inmates choose to be housed to protect themselves from fellow prisoners.

This edition of Lockup, one of the most graphic and disturbing ever, profiles The Wabash Valley Correctional Facility. Situated in America's heartland among acres of Indiana cornfields, this prison houses not only the state's most violent offenders, but also a large population of the mentally ill. Approximately one third of the prisoners have been diagnosed with a mental illness. With the permission of medical and prison staff, and inmates as well, we take a look at the challenges of not only housing violent offenders, but also those with serious psychiatric needs.

Don't let appearances fool you. Although it may look like a college campus, this maximum-security facility is home to more than 1100 inmates. The women held here have committed crimes ranging from theft to murder. Some will never again live life on the outside. MSNBC profiles some of the daughters, sisters, mothers and grandmothers doing hard time, and we hear about one of the topics many prisoners are reluctant to talk about: love between prisoners behind bars.
