This would mean that Watts is most likely being held in solitary confinement. A source inside the prison confirmed to People magazine that Watts is being held in protective custody. Watts is in a solitary cell for 23 hours of the day, with no interaction from other inmates and very limited interactions with correctional staff. The source went on to say that Watts is probably the most hated person inside the prison walls, and even despised by the corrections officers.
