Interview with Luis, Kelly, Cheryl, Tina, Shaylee, Todd, Anne, Robyn, Felicia, Krissie and Marianna
JM: What else would you want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to this jail? Luis: nope not a thing. Kelly: Do whatever necessary to get them out. One day
was more than enough for me. Cheryl: Just try to support them as best you can, and get
them out of there as soon as possible. Tina: Yes and that would be if you have any meds that
you need to take make sure that you do not take
them with you to Oklahoma County because they will
keep some of them and trow others away and not
even tell you Shaylee: Support your loved ones it makes all the
difference Todd: GET THEM OUT AND FEED THEM. THEY PROBABLY COULD USE
AN ACTUAL SHOWER TOO! Anne: get them out soon as possible there are not
living conditions there, lack of cleaning, bugs
eating on inmates, no mats, sometimes no
blankets people laying on cold floors, use of
force unnessary. not fed right take phone away
so no concact with family, stuck in cell for
days or weeks, fetes on floor from toliets over
flowing, staff dont care. Robyn: DON'T LET THEM GO IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT THAT
PERSON AND CAN AVOID IT LEGALLY. Get an attorney
or a bondsman as fast as you can. If they go in
the quickest you are going to get them out of
there is at least 30 to 48 hours depending on the
charges. I was released at 2:30 in the afternoon
before I was taken upstairs and I finally got to
leave the building after Midnight. It took them
over 10 hour just to process me out and they told
my husband it would take 4 to 8 hours. I also
heard there is black mold in the County Jail so If
you have someone that has been in for more than a
week, I would get them to a doctor as quick as you
can. Felicia: Pray for them make sure you write them
send them books pictures etc. Make sure
you visit them put money on they books do
every thang possible so thwy will stay out
of trouble
JM: If somebody knows they will be serving time in this jail what is your advice to them? Luis: Yea, dont go back ot jail. Kelly: Dont go in thinking you're tough. make friends
quickly Krissie: Just stay out of trouble because it isn't worth
it. It's rock bottom, the worst experience ever.
But if you gotta go, just keep to yourself and
don't start any trouble with anybody. Cheryl: Keep your head down, don't cause any problems,
follow the rules. Try to stay strong and positive.
Just concentrate on getting out and try to make
sure you never end up in there again. Tina: If you are going to have to spend time in jail do
your time wisely and learn from the experience and
NEVER go back Shaylee: Anywhere u go is what u make it Todd: FOOD IS HORRIBLE......PREPARE YOURSELF Marianna: pay the traffic fines, don't sit them out in this
jail. Anne: may god be with you your going to need it Robyn: Pay your tickets, fines or hot checks before you
go to jail. But if you go, don't take any crap
from anyone. They cannot physically touch you
unless you give them a reason to. Felicia: Stay to urself do as much activities thwy
offer to you so your time will pass by
