JM: What else would you want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to this jail? Hillary: Put money on their books. Tye: do whatever u can to get this person bonded elpaso
county jail suck the cops are a bunch of good ol
boys and they wont hesitate to fuck any one up. Eva: mail.. mail is very important to a person
incarcerated it shows that even tho they committed
a crime everyone makes bad choices in lif ebut
that doesn't mean u are forgotten or unloved..even
if the family or friend is upset express that to
ur loved one. sometimes we need to hear what we
put our loved ones thru when we r doing wrong.
just show support with calls money and visits it
helps alot Richard: Bond him or her out asap, especially if you love
them, this is not a place for a human being,
this is where cops love to humiliate and degrade
you. I used to have respect for authority, ya ok
they are just doing jobs, but after this
experience i will always hate the police. that
wont change ever either Victor: Do the best can to make plans to start a new and
legal life when you are released. Don't be
stupid Listen to directions and follow the
directions given so you stay out of troubl.
JM: If somebody knows they will be serving time in this jail what is your advice to them? Hillary: I would say pick up a book and start reading.
That's what I did. Tye: stay away from the youngsters they almost always
are trrying to prove some thing to thier retarded
little gangs. find a good book and stay in your
room to work out otoo Eva: try and take as much money to jail with u as they
serve nasty food and it helps for calls and meals.
stay to yourself don't involve yourself in drama and
just do ur time not someone elses Richard: Keep your head up, stay strong, let the outside
just be outside for now. just know you cant
serve a life sentence here so youll be out one
day regardless, even though it feels like life. Victor: Do your best to stay occupied and you will stay
sane. it's a hard lesson to learn to get your
