Interview with Sam

JM: What types of facilities were available to help pass the time?
Sam: a basket ball court. library, work out area (pull ups and push up area really) I mean its a jail. there isn't much to do. The outside area is very small. only a 10 people could even fit out there with out it becoming a health issue. It was what it was.

JM: Did you have regular access to the entertainment or was competition fierce? Give details.
Sam: I worked out every day. I played basketball a few times.. I spent most of my time writing a novel. The TV was always on and it was porimarily frst come first chois=ce but i ended u running the TV and when anyone wanted to change the channel the asked me if it was cool...it just turned out that way.

JM: Did you have a hard time staying in shape while in jail?
Sam: no 400 push-ups a day does the body good. There were ways to keep in shape and most found a way..it also passes time. body and mind is important

JM: How often did you get to go outside? What did you do outside if you were allowed to? If you were not allowed to go outside what could you do for exercise?
Sam: twice a day you were allowed to go outside. mostly you just played basketball or read...not much else to do. It was winter and no real reason to go out much.

JM: Did the jail offer church services? If so, what were they like and when were they held?
Sam: they did. i didnt attend but they held them. I had no desire to going to the jail church so I cant really answer that.
