Interview with Rod, Kerry, Milton and James

JM: How often could you receive visitors?
Rod: 2 VISITS A WEEK, THEY HAVE A SCHEDULE, WHICH SECTORS ON WHICH DAYS AT WHICH TIME. AND THE VISITOR HAS TO CALL AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT, AT LEAST 2 HOURS BEFORE THE SCHEDULED TIME. THEN YOU HAVE TO CHECK IN EARLY.
Kerry: i really don't think i was there long enough to be eligble to have a visitor
Milton: You can receiver only two visits per week and they are on certain days and only two people each visit
James: Usually in most jails it is one or two days during the work week, and both days on the weekend.

JM: Was the check-in process lengthy for those who came to see you?
Rod: CHECK-IN WAS FINE. I WAS TOLD. I HAVE NEVER VISITED ANYONE IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY JAIL. THE WAIT WAS APPROX. 1 HOUR. SOMETIMES. EVEN WITH AN APPOINTMENT.
Kerry: again i really could not say because i was't there long enough to be eligble to have avisitoras best as i can reacll you know
Milton: First you need to call i'm advance at least one day then you show up like ten minutes early to check in you must have an identification card and they check you for warrants
James: They basically have to arrive 10 or 15 minutes prior to visiting time they are scheduled for and no the check in process is rather short.

JM: What was the visiting environment like?
Rod: SAME. JAIL. CEMENT EVERYWHERE. OBVIOUSLY, NOT A VERY SCENIC PLACE. TO WINDOWS. THROUGH PLEXI GLASS, SOME VIDEO VISITING.
Kerry: since i was not there that long i am un able to provide any insight and or info on that particular topic.the visiting section could have been really good or really badthere is just know way i would even begin to any thing about that as i explained in detail
Milton: Well they would walk us over to the visiting room from my unit then they put you in the visiting room which is phones on each sides of the wall with glass between you to andyou communicate through the phone and you get like almost an Hort for your visit
James: In the county jail it is talking on a phone to someone on the other side of thick glass. It isn't the most pleasant visiting experience, but then again most inmates just want to get out of their unit for a few moments to end the monotony of doing time.
