Supporters of Prison Hunger Strikers Rally at Corrections Department

More than a hundred people marched on the headquarters of California's prison system, in a show of support for prison hunger strikers. More than 6,000 inmates began a hunger strike on July 1 to protest conditions in prison isolation units. While many prisoners have since left the strike, hundreds are now approaching three weeks without food. Christopher Martinez reports from Sacramento.
