Shock findings of undercover prisoners who lived in  Clark County Jail for TWO MONTHS

Homemade drugs, violent attacks over food and rampant gay prostitution have been exposed at one of America's toughest jails after seven people went in undercover as prisoners. The brave civilians posed as inmates for a documentary as they spent two months behind bars alongside dangerous thugs and drug dealers at Clark County Jail in Jefferson, Indiana. The volunteers were sent in with fake identities and were treated like prisoners for the full two months, with none of the inmates and hardly any of the jail's staff knowing they were not convicts. The undercover prisoners discovered that drug use was huge inside the jail. With illegal substances harder to get hold of, the inmates had taken to making their own homemade highs, including one called 'crack stick' (top left). The undercover prisoners also found that convicts would get into the most trivial of fights (bottom right), with one violent row (top right) breaking out after a man failed to give another his hash brown as promised. Gay prostitution was rife in the male section of the jail, with one inmate offering himself to others in exchange for items from the commissary (bottom left).

French police punch woman in face as riots spread across country

This is the shocking moment a middle-aged woman was aggressively shoved and thrown to the floor by a policeman amid protests in France over laws that may end 35-hour working week. Her head is violently thrown back as she is rammed against a railing before falling to the tarmac.

This is just one of the disturbing scenes that have been unfolding cross the country this week due to mass strikes in response to proposed labour law reforms.
