Interview with Nathan
JM: How many different blocks were there?
Nathan: A dorm has 4 units.
B dorm has 4 units.
C dorm has 4 units.
Each unit inside each dorm holds 60 inmates.
JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Nathan: A-1, A-2, A-3, and so on.
JM: Which types of inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Nathan: In one unit they would have capital crimes
(murder, rape), violent crimes, non violent,
juveniles, basically it is set up like that.
There are no misdemeanors. If its a misdemeanor
they will keep you in the drunk tank until you
are released, and usually the judge will release
you pretty quick if that is the case.
JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Nathan: C-2 or C-3 is a Trustee unit. That unit is for
the jail workers. Most of those are still
pretrial. They work because they get more time
out of their cell. Otherwise, a lot of times
you only get an hour a day outside the cell
because they are so short staffed.
