JM: What types of punishments were incurred for abuse of drugs? Did you ever witness this?
Joe: the hole
Walter: I believe you got more time added on. I didn't see anyone get in trouble for drug use. At the workhouse, I witnessed a gentlemen come back from work drunk and he got sent back to jail.
Wendy: You lost your workhouse privileges, and were transported back to Lino Lakes. I saw a girl freaking out, screaming, and throwing herself around on the floor because they were sending her back for using Meth while in there. Idiot. You're in jail. For drug posession. You brought and used drugs in jail. Hello!
Ella: I believe some sort of segregation time and possibly new charges depending on the circumstances. I did not witness any one punished for this during my stay.
Annie: Segregation and extra time added onto the sentence, yes i seen this happen. A girl came in with drugs and she was out in seg and got a new charge.
