Shocking security
camera video
from inside a jail
in London, Ontario.
Video that
shows a murder
that the guards apparently
did not notice.
Tashauna Reid is here
with the story
and the video that you will
see for the first time.
What does it show
us, Tashauna?
Well, it's pretty
difficult to watch, Heather.
This is the case of
32-year-old Anthony George
who is now serving
a life sentence
for the death of his
cellmate Adam Kargus.
And this new video was
ordered released by
a judge and shows Kargus
being beaten and choked
by his cellmate
in his cell.
The two of them
are locked together
in that particular cell
that we just had
a circle around.
And then you see a jail
guard actually walking
by at one point
in this video
and checking to see that
all the doors are locked.
But inside that
particular cell--
so, there's that moment
we're talking about--
but inside that cell as
he's walking by
George can be seen through
the window punching
and kicking and stomping
and choking Kargus.
So inmates at this time
also were bragging--
sorry, banging
and yelling
on their own cells,
but then at this point
the next morning,
George actually drags
the body from the cell.
And as you can see, many
inmates around without
jail guards
taking notice
and he leaves the body
in the shower area
which is a common area
for all of the inmates.
So this video was taken
from a security camera
from one of
the common areas,
but as you can see,
a lot happening here.
And it shows that George
over the days
that they had obtained
the footage,
it shows George
physically interacting
with Kargus on six
different occasions
and on four of
those occasions,
he actually puts Kargus
into a chokehold.
And I want to show you
a still image, as well.
There's only one at one
point do we see guards
actually intervening
and as you can see,
he's holding him
in a chokehold.
So George was scheduled
for trial in particular
for this-- this case,
but pled guilty
just three weeks
before the trial
was set to begin
and is now serving
this life sentence.
So life sentence,
what were the repercussions
for the jail
where this happened?
Well, of course, I mean,
there were a lot
of questions as to why
these two inmates
who clearly had issues
were even in the same
jail cell together.
George is also a known
violent offender.
Now, the court
actually heard from a nurse
who said that she
suspected that he might
have been under the
influence of alcohol
that same night
and that was
actually fact
because George
admitted in court
that he was
under the influence,
that he had
been drinking
what is called
jailhouse brew,
or what is commonly
known as jailhouse brew,
which is
an alcoholic concoction
that some of
the prisoners make.
He also smoked
a cigarette
that was laced
with drugs.
So she had
flagged that
and reported it
to guards,
but instead
the guards decided
to deal with the issue
the next day
and then it
was too late.
They said it was because
of a staffing shortage.
Now, another question
is why guards
did not respond
to the beating.
There were a number
of different alter--
or interactions between
these two inmates
that were caught on
a closed circuit camera
and that beating also
lasted for about an hour
with the inmates
making noise.
So a lot of questions as
to what the guards did
and did not do during
this particular case.
The judge ordering this
video to be released
so people can see 
the fuller picture.
Heather: All
right Tashauna,
thank you very much.
