Interview with PJ, Katherine, Jimmy, Baldy, Karen, Richard and Danielle
JM: How often could you receive visitors? PJ: up to 5 times per week maximum Katherine: Everyday if you wanted to. Unfortunately i didnt
have the privilage of visitors. Jimmy: once a day twice a week Baldy: my momz, once a week. Karen: I think once or twice a week Richard: i am not sure i did not receive any visitors at
that time during incarceration Danielle: the visitor has to call and make an appointment
to come and see you. i didnt recieve visitors
JM: Was the check-in process lengthy for those who came to see you? PJ: yes Katherine: Yes you had to at least make a 1 week notice a
head of time and the time frame you were going
to be there, But before they changed all
that..It was first come first serve and lines
were out the door to only talk for 15 minutes. Jimmy: dont know they just told me when they were their Baldy: dont know Karen: n/a Richard: i do not know because the only visitors i had to
see me was legal counsel from the public
defenders office or the nurse for medication Danielle: i was told that it was crazy because you have to
wait and the officers played favorites about who
came to see who and got in and who didnt
JM: What was the visiting environment like? PJ: sat on either side of partition Katherine: Dumb. There is no one on one contact or
visiting. You get to do it with a phone a camera
and a TV monitor and thats it. And half of those
didnt even work or they would break down. Jimmy: talking through a screen isnt really pleasent Baldy: i was by myself, looking in a monitor at who
came to see me and talking on the phone at the
same time Karen: n/a Richard: the other inmates told me it is via a monitor
and that there is no physical contact at this
facility.only time that it is an interactive
visit is when it is with your legal counsel or
public defender or the people of the church
staff like the pastor at the jail Danielle: there was no environment. we went in a little
box of a room where there is 1 tv that you see
your visitor on.you talk thru a phone that only
works sometimes. half the time the tv dont work.
then your time gets taken away even if you cant
see or hear who comes to see you
