Interview with Allyson and Eric

JM: How many different blocks were there?
Allyson: Probably 25 or 30 different ones for men and women combined. There are 62 inmates in each mod, and there are only 3 for the ladies. The rest are men.
Eric: there was at least 20 different blocks

JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Allyson: Numbers and letters.
Eric: blocks one through I think nineteen. and blocks A through G

JM: Which types of inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Allyson: Programs mod. Special mod for medical, special mod for suicidal/lockdown (also medical), lock down mod down, administrative lock down, and lock down for reasons other than fighting. If two people are on the same court case they can't be in the same mod, they can't have contact. Each mod has a couple lock down cells.
Eric: there were a mix of people in the two man cell blocks.these were usually higher offense people and felons. in general population there are all types of lower lever offenders

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Allyson: There is a new part and an old part. 11-8 are the new part. I have only ever stayed in the new part.
Eric: There were no nice parts. I do not remember anything nice about that place. not at all. I guess being in the two man cell makes it easier to get sleep at night because in the annex there are more people and that means at least one person is up all night
