Former prison seamstress Joyce Mitchell will be sentenced later this month for her role in the prison break of convicted killers David Sweat and Richard Matt. In an exclusive jailhouse interview with TODAY’s Matt Lauer, she says that Matt gave her pills to drug her husband Lyle, referred to as “the glitch” in the plan by Sweat and Matt, and that Matt planned to kill Lyle when he was passed out. Instead, she says, she flushed the pills down the toilet.Sept. 18, 2015
