Storyline
"Stone Walls Do Not a Prison Make" From prison, Big Mike Russo is able to have his gang kidnap the warden, replace him and the guards with a look alike, then use the prison as a base of operations to commit crimes while providing alibis to those committing them! Batman figures that the only way to uncover this senario is to get put in prison himself, a move that almost costs him his life in the gas chamber!
