Good Behavior

Interview with Albert, Borata, Keith, Jon, Acer, Taz, Will and James

JM: Did you get off early based on good behavior?
Albert: NO BUT SOME PEOPLE DO.
Borata: no, mishap on Barry Hammonds part. My lawyer did not take care of anything at all as he said for 10Grand!!!!!!!!! Dennis found this guy, and also Fred Goldberg. Dennis, look at Dennis h istory during exxon valdez, 01 trip to la during rose bowl, vegas and trip to PI in 01 with his gf. His father had an accident and aetna represented him. Dennis was working in AK aorund exxon valdez. I flew in from Ocho Rios on 9/10 was supposed to leave 9/11/01 but got on earlier flight. Not sure if DCA or BWI. Saved by God.
Keith: I served 39 days on a 365 day sentence.
Jon: I was sentenced for 30 days and spent 33 hours in jail, mostly booking and release. I think I spent more time because I was classified for taking prescription medication.
Acer: Lol no
Taz: yes
Will: Yeah I received half time for not getting into fights nor disobeying the rules
James: yes I did, I got granted my "good time/ work time"

JM: What is the most time off you can receive for good behavior?
Albert: I HEARD AND ACTUALLY SEEN UP TO 80-90 PERCENT OFF
Borata: who knows, i can't get a millisecond.
Keith: There is really no "good behavior" credit. If you are a non violent offender, which I was at the time, you serve 10% of your sentence.
Jon: I don't know for a fact, but I heard it is usual to spend only 10% of your time, I would think because of good behavior, or the simple fact is they do not have room to keep people.
Acer: I got half time but ot for good behavior that was just the terms of my plea
Taz: unsure
Will: Basically half the time you are sentenced
James: you can receive about 50% to 10% off your time

JM: What types of actions do you need to avoid in order to get time off? Did you ever witness somebody losing time off for good behavior?
Albert: DON'T GET INTO TROUBLE BY GUARDS.
Borata: talking, but had to scream since the button was way across the cell.
Keith: You don't really have much contact with Jail employees, so you can get away with pretty much anything.
Taz: No fighting, just obey the rules.
Will: You just have to obey all rules. I witnessed many fights through the duration of being incarcerated. I also seen drugs being used such as marijuana, pills, etc.
James: stay away from drugs, illegal paraphinelia, cell phones, sexual harassment, fighting, cussing at staff, filing out to many complaint forms, creating a disturbance, not going to school or work.
