Inmates

Interview with Cesar, Tom, Bruce and Jon

JM: Did you find it difficult to get along with other inmates? Please give examples to explain why you did or didn't.
Cesar: I did not find it to hard to get along with others there. I mostly kept to myself.
Tom: NO I DID NOT. MOST OF THEM SEEMED EASY TO TALK TO AND GET ALONG WITH.
Bruce: i didn't find it hard to get along with the other inmates, if you mind your own business and dont start anything most of them are friendly and not looking for trouble,
Jon: I had a lot of friends who were locked up when I got arrested so I had a solid group of friends who had my back while I was locked up. I did have issues with 2 of my cell mates one was due to the fact that he was trying to take advantage of the whole floor and then PC'd up. The other issue was a cellmate who thought he was some gangster and got pissed when I wouldnt hit him back after he punched me.

JM: What types of things did you have to do to avoid problems or fights with other inmates?
Cesar: Mostly kept to myself. Most of the problems in jail are about respect. What other things could there be i mean really.
Tom: WHILE IN THE SPOKANE COUNTY JAIL, ITS PRETTY EASY TO AVOID FIGHTS, EITHER BY WRITING, READING THE BIBLE TALKING TO FELLOW INMATES, WHILE I WAS IN I DID NOT SEE ANY FIGHTS AT 3WEST, MOST KNOW THAT IF THEY DO NOT CREATE PROBLEMS THEY WILL GO TO GEIGOR. SOME OF THE OTHER INMATES THAT WHERE AWARE OF ME ASKED ME TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS I HAD BEEN WRITING ABOUT MY LIFE.
Bruce: i've got a good name on the streets so i didn't really have to do anything, basic rule is mind your own business, watch what you say and who you say it to and dont be stupid, dont get caught up in someones elses bullshit. just be respectful. if you show respect then that's what you will get back
Jon: I had to learn a new mentality and way of life. I also had to watch what I said around people and stay away from other peoples problems. I also had to teach myself how to keep my calm while stuck in a tiny cell for 23 hours a day and having to deal with other people.

JM: Were you able to choose an inmate as your cellmate if you knew one? How often would your cellmate(s) change?
Cesar: Not at all. It jail not a camp out.
Tom: I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT QUESTION
Bruce: no i have never been able to pick my cell mate in county jail, you are pretty much stuck with who ever they put in with you, unless there's trouble between you then they will separate you so there wont be a problem
Jon: I was supposed to be able to but I had to grievance the Jail Administration since the officer who was in charge of the floor I was on did not want to mix races and told me I that a little white boy like me could not be around any niggers.
