Madan Chakara smuggles a letter out of
prison, telling him of the brutal inhuman treatment they are given.
The worst part of this is...the prison is in the United States....
After an evening of dancing, Connie Ferrari tells Steve Rogers of the Chakara case. Madan had saved up his money
to move to the USA after his brother Kanu invited him, but Madan was
sold false immigration papers by a conman, arrested by the
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), and put in a
privately-owned prison. Connie tells Steve about this prison, a
hellhole run by a corrupt warden. Concerned that she would be upset
if she found out he was Captain America, Steve goes on his own to the
INS and arranges to go undercover in the prison to gather evidence of
wrong-doing....
Cap, using the name Buck Jones, is
hired at the prison and immediately discovers the prisoners living in
filth, shackled unnecessarily, and forced to eat rotten food, and
supervised by sadistic guards. Cap records the evidence on a
miniature camera installed in his sunglasses. Cap discovers Chakara
locked in a small cage, his mind now bitter against the United States
and spitting in Cap's face. Trying to help him, “Buck Jones” is
unmasked as Captain America and he confronts Warden Moseley who
insists that Cap can't prove anything as the guards are bribed and
the prisoners intimidated into claiming to be treated decently. But
this time, the prisoners riot; Cap protects the prisoners from
machine-gun toting guards and rescues the Warden from his vengeful
charges. When a guard gets the drop on Cap, it is Chakara who saves
him by clouting the guard. Cap also confiscates a disk full of
evidence that the Warden was hiding. Moseley tries to escape but Cap
manages to herd him into one of the solitary pens and trap him.
Epilogue: Connie thanks Steve for using
his influence to have the prison shut down and expediting Madan's
citizenship....
