Interview with Rachel, Paula and Lindsey

JM: What clothes could you have brought in to wear in the jail (underwear, socks, etc.)?
Rachel: SOCKS, BLACK AND WHITE STRIPE JAIL OUTFIT. PLASTIC SLIPPERS (NOT SIZED)
Paula: Only underwear and white t-shirts and socks were allowed to be dropped off. All other clothing was provided by the jail
Lindsey: You could of brought all white underwear, all white socks, and all white bras with no underwire in it

JM: If you had a set uniform, what did it look like? Please be specific about each piece of clothing issued to you.
Rachel: BLACK/WHITE STRIPE TOP AND PANTS. YOU WERE NOT EVEN NECESSARILY GIVEN THE SAME SIZE EACH WEEK FROM LAUNDRY.
Paula: Our uniform was a black and white top and bottom with Boone County Jail printed on the back. These were exchanged for clean ones twice a week
Lindsey: Yes we had a set uniform and it was black and white striped. It was also probably the most ugliest and bulkiest jail uniforms I have ever seen.

JM: Were there any assigned clothes in high demand that an inmate should look for when getting clothing assigned?
Rachel: SOCKS AND UNDERPANTS WERE NICE, BUT YOU HAD TO BY THEM FROM THE COMMISSARY. NOT SUPPLIED.
Paula: the only thing some inmates would request is a set of "New" uniforms.

JM: Was the clothing different between men and women?
Rachel: NO
Paula: Yes, women wore an all yellow uniform
