Interview with Terri

JM: What types of facilities were available to help pass the time?
Terri: I witnessed the other girls watch television, they talked about y were able to walk outside in a small space located in center of jail. They also read books, wrote letters, drew on drawing paper, and played cards. I also believe they played jail made board games they designed themselves.

JM: Did you have regular access to the entertainment or was competition fierce? Give details.
Terri: Because I was a new person, no I did not get any access to entertainment. They, like I said, had their set ways in which shows, movies and other activities were done and they were very atoment about the schedule in which this was operated on.Even the pod deputy knew their routine and assisted in keeping to it.

JM: Did you have a hard time staying in shape while in jail?
Terri: Not at all. I was not there long enough to make that big of a difference to my normal figure.

JM: How often did you get to go outside? What did you do outside if you were allowed to? If you were not allowed to go outside what could you do for exercise?
Terri: I personally did not get to experience the outdoor exercise time due to severe weather that was occuring outside. However I was told that on a normal basis, they were allowed 1 hour outdoors regularly.

JM: Did the jail offer church services? If so, what were they like and when were they held?
Terri: Yes. If you signed up 2 weeks in advance, and were approved by the sergeant, you were allowed to attend church and other organizational meetings. I did not attend any of these for I was not there long enough, therefore I do not knoiw where they were held.
