Special Report Transcript Episode 58, Section 3, Time 14:39

The former death row warder still lives in Pretoria and works in the kitchen at Pretoria Maximum Prison. He maintains that he and his fellow warders were just doing their job on death row and should not be seen as inhumane or barbaric. // At that time you didn’t notice it. You thought it was normal, but when you look back now you can tell you were another person. You messed up. // How would you describe the relationship between the condemned prisoner and the prison warder? // Everyone was your friend, warder and prisoner. There were no specific cases. You could not allow yourself to become emotionally involved. You couldn’t afford it. Otherwise you couldn’t do your job. // Do you believe that the death penalty should be reinstated? // That’s my personal feeling. If they bring it back it should be in another form. That’s all I’m saying.
