Interview with Mario and Tanya

JM: What else would you want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to this jail?
Mario: It was my experince that folling instructions, with the guards made it easer on me being friendly. and staying out of trouble.Reading alot of books, going to church, and attending AA meetings helped me stay positive. writing familey and friends helped... and prayer went along way.. being my self.. not acting as if i were somebody different.. helped..not gambling. kept me out of trouble also..
Tanya: Write the addresses and phone numbers for anyone you may want to stay in touch with in your bible and take it with you. They will let you take it inside and if you have to go to another facility, it is the 1 thing you will always be allowed to keep with you as long as you don't lose the privilege to possess and read any spiritual or religious material up to 5 books

JM: If somebody knows they will be serving time in this jail what is your advice to them?
Mario: try reading a good book, get involved in church, pray.It was necessary for me to have a routine.write familey and friends alot.phone calls are expensive.. spend your money wisely.and mind your own business.. i had a saying if it does not apply let it fly. lol.
