Watch National Geographic Lockdown online: Episode 1 Female Felons

With one of the highest violent crime rates in the country, Maryland is home to some of Americas most dangerous women. And the state has only one prison for all of its female offenders the Maryland Correctional Institution for Women, or MCIW, in Jessup. Here, every type of criminal is mixed in together, from petty dealers to cold-blooded killers. Many of these women are on edge, and controlling them can prove a dauntingly dangerous task. In Female Felons, the inmates we meet include a young lifer, a mother-to-be, and a recovering crack addict with serious anger issues. They each have their own path and story, but they all illustrate the challenges of women behind bars.
