Interview with Lowell and Ray

JM: Did you find it difficult to get along with other inmates? Please give examples to explain why you did or didn't.
Lowell: No I always kept to myself pretty much. I would just talk to a select few people. I also get along with everyone pretty much on the outside so wasn't hard in the inside.
Ray: no i didn't i am very easy going and got along with everyone. i made sure i got along and went with the flow. i didnt need any reason to be stuck in the box or not get good behavior time.

JM: What types of things did you have to do to avoid problems or fights with other inmates?
Lowell: I kept to myself. I didn't get into other inmates problems wiht other inmates. I know if you get involved then you get in trouble and can end up doing more time. that is somethingI ddint' want. I only talked to a few inmates that I thought I could trust.
Ray: if htey wanted to watch what htey wanted on tv i let them. i also kept to myself and in my cell as much as possible. i also only talke to a few people so i had less chance of altercations. or i woudl try not to get too close to any inmate or tell them to much about my release date or personal information.

JM: Were you able to choose an inmate as your cellmate if you knew one? How often would your cellmate(s) change?
Lowell: No I wasnt' able to choose who I wanted. I dont' remember how often it changed but I don't think it was as often for me as it was for other inmates.
Ray: No we couldn't choose. IT wasnt very often especially if you got along with the person you stayed with them for a while unless they were sent home. So it just depended.
