Good Behavior

Interview with Jen, Kelsey and Cody

JM: Did you get off early based on good behavior?
Jen: Yes, I was released 100 days early. I had requested to be released; I had kids at home and I also had school that I was needing to attend to.
Kelsey: In the beginning. Sure!
Cody: No I did not. I was released on O.R. based on the court proceedings.

JM: What is the most time off you can receive for good behavior?
Jen: I am not sure. The county here seems to play by their own rules and laws; this falls into all legal matters.
Kelsey: In county you get third off for good behavior and also work time.... In the joint you get half time.
Cody: I'm not sure. Tulare County is really overcrowded right now so any sentence you get you only end up doing half the time.

JM: What types of actions do you need to avoid in order to get time off? Did you ever witness somebody losing time off for good behavior?
Jen: fighting, participation in using of drugs or tabacco or other contraband that might be brought in from the street. Avoiding confrontation with the officers on duty; with this in mind, if the cops don'[t like you, you are in a world of shit. They can and will make your time the worst it can be while your on vaction
Kelsey: Mind you biz and be a kiss butt! Do what you're told
Cody: Don't fight, don't get caught with contraband, and especially don't talk shit to the ego freak guards. There was one guy who was already locked down 24/7 for fighting and he somehow got out of his cell and started another fight. They moved him and I never saw him again.
