Collins says a television news report about an alleged serial rapist soon came on a nearby TV.
“I’m looking at the picture and I look down at him and he got this little eerie little smirk on his face like he’s happy about what’s going on the news, all the attention he’s getting, says Collins.
Collins believes rapists are the worst kind of criminals.
He says he got very angry. Collins covered up a camera pointed at the cell and started hitting Bernard Jackson.
“I made him scream just like he made them women scream, says Collins.
The guards broke up the fight.
Jackson was taken to the hospital with minor bruising to the right side of his face.
Collins says he has a couple of scratches on his neck.
According to the police report Jackson declined to press charges.
