In this episode of Devil We Know, a man commits crimes so heinous that he was sentenced to the death penalty. However, the killer stated that the reason he committed the murders was the large amount of time he spent in the segregation unit prior to his crimes, in addition to a very controversial accusation: he claimed his mental health needs were largely ignored during his incarceration.
