From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carl Jenkins, played by Joshua Harto, is an inmate on the HBO drama Oz.
[edit] Season 4 Part II
A young white inmate, he is told that he will be let into the Aryan Brotherhood by his current protector James Robson if he kills Muslim inmate Kareem Said. Robson also tells him that if he fails, the Aryans will allow the Black inmates to turn him into their sex slave. In the cafeteria lunch line Jenkins attempts to shank Said but instead kills Leroy Tidd who dies putting himself in Said's way. This death angers Said who realizes that Robson had this planned out. As Jenkins is awaiting trial for murder, Reverend Jeremiah Cloutier at the request of Said convinces Jenkins to confess that he murdered Tidd at Robson's orders as a means of saving himself and convicting the Aryans. Warden Glynn gladly states to Robson that Jenkins gave him up and he will be moved to death row after the trial. Aryan leader Vernon Schillinger hears about this and while delivering mail to solitary confinement where Jenkins is residing delivers him a message from the Aryans. The message is a series of pictures that show Blacks who have been lynched closed by a note stating "Nigger Lover." Fearing that the Aryans will exact revenge on him, Jenkins hangs himself and is unable to testify against Robson. This angers Said who later beats Robson after taunting him.
