Interview with Karl and Willie

JM: How many different blocks were there?
Karl: Where I was at was 3 tiers with 48 cells on either side, two man per cell. They also had modular units which were dorm style.
Willie: there were 4 blocks if i remember correctly.

JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Karl: They called them tier 1, tier 2, mod 1, mod 2
Willie: We had c pod a pod b pod Work release if you made it there from what i remember, so four when you are sentenced.

JM: Which types of inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Karl: I don't believe so. I think they were all mixed in together.
Willie: A pod B pod and C pod all seemed like there were a mix of different inmates, while Work release (cwp) was for people with good behavior for a long period of time

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Karl: Worst part in general being away from people that I love. The guards were power tripping assholes. not at all nice. One of the officers was cute. She was the nicest thing about being in there.
Willie: Worst part of the blocks are the people. Hard to get along with most, while i did get friendly with a few., i had to move to seg a lot because of fighting with the inmates. Most of the inmates will tell on the drop of a hat. Also a guy named "artie" finds everything, including drugs weapons and cigarettes from watching the cameras and searching everybody constantly. The best part I heard was getting to CWP because you can watch tv (there are no other tvs in the jail, at all because rioters broke thm all a long time ago and they were never replaced. I also heard people get in cigarettes and drugs all the time there.
