Closing Advice

Interview with Jessica, Sarah, Curt, Brad, Peter and Michael

JM: What else would you want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to this jail?
Jessica: You should visit them every chance you get and write if they're in there for a long time. It's very boring and depressing in jail and you can never stop thinking. Company of loved ones whether in person or on paper REALLY helps out a great deal.
Sarah: get them commissary because all the jail gives them is a small bar of soap to wash their hair and bodies and without being able to buy extra food they will starve.
Curt: hang in there and this to will pass.
Brad: If you're able to send money for commissary that's a good thing.
Peter: Yes. Keep in constant contact with any loved one who is incarcerated. Jail is a lonely cold place and those loved ones will easily feel abandoned or alone if they do not hear from you in a letter or a visit. Sometimes just a quick letter is enough to get someone through.
Michael: Stay out of trouble, no one elses issues are worth you doing more time. Just do your time and get out of there. Don't cause any waves with the officers and do as they ask.

JM: If somebody knows they will be serving time in this jail what is your advice to them?
Jessica: I'd recommend that you be on your nest behavior and be polite and curtious to EVERYONE you encounter in that facility. Definately do NOT repeat your mistakes. It's NOT a pleasant place at all.
Sarah: Shut up and do what they say
Curt: STAY OUT OF JAIL!
Brad: Just keep to yourself, don't start shit. Try to get into the trustee programs become that helps time go by realy quick.
Peter: Yes, stay out of trouble in there and get all your gain time. There is nothing worse than passing your earliest release date knowing if you had been behaving you could be with your family.
Michael: Keep your chin up, read a lot, go to church, get involved in some self help classes, get your GED, improve yourself while you are in so that you better yourself for yourself and your family.

JM: Please list any other jail or rehab facilities you have been to.
Brad: Orange County Jail or 33rd.
Peter: none
Michael: Orange County Jail Volusia County Jail
