  • Follow-Up Special

    Thursday, February 07 10/9C

    In a special episode, Beyond Scared Straight revisits teens from the first few seasons to discover if the jail tours have had a lasting impact on their behavior. Among those visited are Sahn, an adorable 13-year old from Baltimore whose shoplifting supported his "passion for fashion" and Brandon, from Oakland County, MI, whose violent outbursts in jail caused him to be thrown off the tour. Also seen is Larry, from Season 3, who awaits the outcome of a promise made by a San Bernardino, CA deputy: that he would finally be reunited with his long-lost father. And sadly, the update of one teen whose tragic accident could never have been imagined. Alternatively shocking, uplifting and heart-wrenching, this follow-up also premieres never-before-seen footage and clips featuring memorable inmates Diabla, Green Eyes and Ice Mike.
