JM: How often could you receive visitors?
John: You could receive visitors three times a week. And lawyer visits didnt count in that.
Scott: WE COULD RECEIVE VISITORS THREE TIMES A WEEK UNLESS THEY ALLOW OTHER VISITS. LAWYER VISITS DONT COUNT.
Aaron: twice a week for an hour it wasn't really great I mean it was good but we were behind glass and we could barely hear our loved ones on the phones in the vistor room.
Bruce: We were able to receive visitors Three times a week. Lawyer visits were not included.
Sammy: We were able to get our visits atleast Three times a,week and that is up to 5 visitors

JM: Was the check-in process lengthy for those who came to see you?
John: Yes it was a bit lengthy and to some people they even gave them a hard time about what they were wearing resulting in them not being able to visit an inmate that day.
Scott: YEA THE CHECK-IN PROCESS WAS LENGTHY. THEY MAKE YOUR VISITORS WAIT IN A ROOM UNTIL THEY CALL YOU FROM YOUR HOLDING BLOCK TO GO TO THE VISITING ROOM.
Aaron: my aunt said it was a little bit of a hassle because she said they had to search her and have her take out all her jewelry and she had to leave everything in a locker.
Bruce: Yes the check in processe was lengthy. People had to wait,sign in,wait,get called,get screened through the metal detector and then they had to wait for you to get to the visiting room.
Sammy: yes to check in process was Lengthy they make people wait forever it seems like. have to wait until your name is called and they have to wait to.

JM: What was the visiting environment like?
John: The visiting enviorment was very loud,flimsy plastic chairs,kids running around bored really,some people were emotional with there familys. The correctional officers would be walking around Looking at your visitors sometimes even impolitely to a point it could,set an inmate off. Even at times they would make you wait Basically your WHOLE hour to see your visit in what i BELIEVE would be delays just to set that inmate off.
Scott: THE VISITING ENVIORNMENT WAS VERY EMOTINAL. YOU HAVE A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE WHO COME TO SEE THERE LOVED ONE WHO IS LOCKED UP AD ITS JUST A VERY ON EDGE FEELING TO BE IN THAT ROOM. ITS SO LOUD AND AGGRAVATING . THERE ARE TIMES YOU CANT EVEN HERE YOUR VISIT TALKING TO YOU.I
Aaron: the environment was sad because we couldn't hold our loved ones or touch them it was really depressing because our loved ones had to sit there and watch us behind glass and when they cryed we couldn't hold them and confort them and that makes us depressed. We should be able to at least have a face to face visit it would so much better for our mental states.
Bruce: The visiting environment was sometimes good. There we're,alot of times they were bad maybe because of stress between An inmate And his,visitors or just because it was a bad,day for someone. every time you go into the,visting room and see someone from the,outside alot of time that cab hurt An inmate.
Sammy: the the visiting environment was very stressful and aggressive people were often sad and crying because they miss their love ones. at times they would be kids running around. the guards always looking at who comes to visit you. it's as if you have no type of privacy at all
