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 informs Robson that Jenkins gave him up and Robson will likely receive a death sentence. 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 with a note reading "Nigger Lover." Fearing that the Aryans' revenge on him, Jenkins hangs himself. With no proof that Robson was involved in the murder of Tidd, no charges are laid. Robson taunts Said who, infuriated, snaps and severely beats Robson.
