Inmates

Interview with Cody and Nicole

JM: Did you find it difficult to get along with other inmates? Please give examples to explain why you did or didn't.
Cody: No not really.
Nicole: I did not find it difficult to get along with other inmates because I did not converse with the other inmates. Most of the inmates tried to be "tougher" than the others or felt like they had a point to prove. I stayed in my cell when we were allowed to come out usually, to avoid any of the nonsense.

JM: What types of things did you have to do to avoid problems or fights with other inmates?
Cody: I just minded my own business and stayed up all night and slept through the afternoon.
Nicole: I did not have to do anything to avoid any issues with other inmates but I did usually stay in my cell as I did not care to interact with them. I was ok with my cellmate. I did speak with them occasionally but I kept to myself for the most part.

JM: Were you able to choose an inmate as your cellmate if you knew one? How often would your cellmate(s) change?
Cody: One time I was able to choose. It was 2 months I had been there, and they had me moved to a different pod area. I was trying to see if I could move with one of my friends I knew when I was a younger kid. One of the correctional officers (CO) was a cool guy and he said if my celly and the other persons celly was OK with it, we could move to the same cell.
Nicole: I was not able to choose my cellmate, although I knew a few girls on the deck. My cellmate never changed. However, if my cellmate left, I owuld have received a new one.
