In the second episode of this series, Kalief Browder attempts to adjust to the terrible conditions at Rikers while a speedy trial eludes him. He suffers from abuse from both fellow inmates and guards, as well as endless adjournments. Finally a new judge is appointed to his case; is this Kalief's only hope?
