Interview with Tom
JM: Did you have regular access to telephones?
Tom: there were two phones for 1200 men and half the
time someone would agravate a guard and the
phones would be turned off
JM: What types of charges applied for calling people?
Tom: astronomical a five minute local call was
roughly $8.00 and only to numbers pre approved
and that could accept charges for the call
JM: Did you need to buy phone cards to call out?
Tom: that was suggested to the sheriff and was never
implemented
JM: Did the jail screen your calls?
Tom: every single one

IS THERE ANY WAY TO WRITE AN INMATE VIA EMAIL ONLINE? DO YOU ALL HAVE A SYSTEM LIKE THAT THERE? I KNOW SOME JAILS DO, SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS BECAUSE IT IS FASTER THAN WRITING A LETTER. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

|
|

|
|
how can we contatc by phone with a inmate
|
|
You can't just call an inmate - you either have to go visit them or they have to call you. If you want to get the inmate to call you send a letter.

y cant i just call?
|

From the comments of the interviewer, it sounds like the guards like to get their kicks out of aggravating the inmates. That's not rehabilitating thats just creating a worse attitude when they do get out. We the society pays for that.
|
|
From the experience of people I know, the correctional officers are not to dissimilar from guards found in Stalags, Gulags, or other foreign jails. Considering the level of their education, the Sheriff's activist attitude...it is top-down driven. But, as all of us know, the world turns and things change...then the finger pointing will begin.
|
|
I agree - guards should help inmates not come back. What they do now isn't working.
|
|
$8 for a five minute local call?!
|
|
Does anyone know how many phone calls you can make in one day?
|
|
They had a limit of 2 calls per day. Of course, you had to pay for em.
|
|
Thats not fair someone else should pay
