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.
