Closing Advice

Interview with Jen, Kelsey and Cody

JM: What else would you want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to this jail?
Jen: Never plead No Contest and always know and understand your charges. Find out what it will take to file an appeal. Don't cause trouble in the jail while your there. Never take in contraband and never take part in the usage of any one else who brings in contraband it can also lead to more trouble for yourself while you are incarcerated; especially in Tulare County where the law and time stand in whatever favor they want it to stand. Don't fight or have words with others, especially the cops; it will only make things worse.
Kelsey: Don't forget that they need to eat! Especially if they are coming off drugs! The food nowadays are disgusting! Put money on their books! Weekly they can buy items. If possible take the total amount you would give a month and divide it to put on their books weekly. This was every week they can eat something! WRITE! If you ever want to get through to them, this is the time they will listen...even if they seem like they aren't!
Cody: If possible go bail them out. It is a miserable, disgusting, and depressing experience. They will likely come out of it okay so don't worry too much. But put some cash on your phone and go visit them when you can.

JM: If somebody knows they will be serving time in this jail what is your advice to them?
Jen: Stay clear of gang affiliation, and don't act bad ass to the cops or other inmates. Treat others with respect and they will return it to you.
Kelsey: If you don't think you can do time....DON'T DO CRIME!
Cody: Just lay low. Watch and observe and get try to get a feel for people before interacting with them. Mind your own business, you didn't see anything. And if you can read, read, read. It helps the time go by..

JM: Please list any other jail or rehab facilities you have been to.
Kelsey: Christian based rehab homes.
Cody: None.
