First-ever interview airs with New York prison worker who helped convicted murders in prison break

The first-ever interview has aired with Joyce Mitchell, the prison
seamstress who pleaded guilty to helping two convicted murderers
escape from a high-security prison in upstate New York.

Mitchell expressed remorse for the role she played in sparking a
22-day manhunt in June - now the longest prison break in New York's
history,

The search ended in Richard Matt being shot and killed by law
enforcement while David Sweat was captured two days later and placed
in solitary confinement.

In the interview, Mitchell said she was afraid her family would be
endangered if she didn't comply with the inmates.
