Interview with Jessica, Sarah and Curt


JM: How many different blocks were there?
Jessica: I'm only aware of 8 different cells for the inmates and then there was also a medical room and a quarantine area.
Sarah: They have 7 pods and each pod has approx 4 cells and in the cells there were 60 bunks
Curt: 17.

JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Jessica: For the women there was A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4. For the men I believe it was C-1, C-2, C-3 and C- 4. Then there was a medical cell too for people that needed quarantined.
Sarah: A, B, C, D, E, F, H Pod
Curt: pods. a-h

JM: Which inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Jessica: A-1 was where most of the new inmates would come in but it was also a dirty place with crabs and head lice. A-2 is where the really bad women went.. multiple felons, murderers, rapists, women wanted federally and whatnot. A-3 was medium security where toilets were in the rooms and the doors locked after lockdown. A-4 was the trustee pod and where some new people would be assigned also. They'd place you in different cells based on the answers you gave the nurse regarding your physical, sexual and mental health.
Sarah: A was for females, C was for males just coming in that were not asigned yet and the rest were for men
Curt: i am not sure.we

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Jessica: A-4 was the nicest block because it was minimum security and you got a little more freedom. Everything was as clean as the inmates kept it because inmates are who swept and mopped. I'd imagine that A-2 was the worst because it was all the worst of the worst criminals and I imagine they weren't treated quite as well.
Sarah: Being women we could see down the hallway to the mens outside rec area and they would play basketball with their shirts off. That was great but the worst was having to walk down past the male cells and some of they would expose themselves to you as you would walk by.
Curt: well nice not many things about jail are nice so .the worst " ITS JAIL"
