Interview with Ron, mike and Brian

JM: How many different blocks were there?
Ron: I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE HOW MANY THERE WERE I ONLY KNEW THEY WERE THERE. I'LL ESTIMATED THERE WERE SEVERAL OR AT LEAST 20 OTHERS.
mike: 8 with 2 dorms per block
Brian: I can't remember how many blocks there were. Clay county jail is not as big as Jacksonville's jail. I believe there are 4-5 stories of jails.

JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Ron: DID NOT KNOW THE NAMES AS THEY DID NOT TELL ME ANYTHING AND I DID NOT ASK OR WAS NOT CURIOUS ABOUT THE DIFFERENT NAMES!!!
mike: A-G A=intake dorm B=Female dorm C=confinment D=General population 40 man dorm F=2 man cells G=16 man dorm H=sentanced inamtes
Brian: I can only remember the names being called by what particular floor an inmate was on.

JM: Which types of inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Ron: NOT SURE WHAT THE QUESTION IS ASKING, ALL I KNOW IS THERE WERE SEVERAL DIFFERENT INMATES!!! BUT I DID NOT KNOW ALL THE NAMES!!!
mike: A-G A=intake dorm B=Female dorm C=confinment D=General population 40 man dorm F=2 man cells G=16 man dorm H=sentanced inamtes
Brian: The blocks were separated by: a juvenile inmate floor, a women's floor, a serious crimes/ or inmates that were awaiting prison sentence, a regular arrests floor, and a medical floor.

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Ron: THE BEST PART WAS THE FACT OF LOOKING FORWARD TOWARD RELEASE, AND THE WORST PART WAS, THE STINKING COPS!!! I MEAN MOST OF THEM SAT AROUND AND ATE FOOD ALL DAY!!
mike: 16 man block was quiet easier to sleep. In the big dorms there was alot of stealing. Confinement you wont get any prevliages. In the intake dorm the lights never go off.
Brian: Jail is jail...don't really remember "nicest". What I was glad of was the fact I was on a smaller cell block. Which was a 16 man cell. It was small and mostly quiet. There are other floors I've been on in which house 30-40 inmates. This is how problems can arise. When there are so many different personalities in one place.
