Interview with Jessica and Joe Smith
JM: Is there anything else you would want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to jail?
Jessica: JUST BELIEVE THAT THEY WILL BE OK. THEY WILL BE
TAKEN CARE OF. THEY WILL BE FEED WELL. IF THERE
WERE ANY BEHAVIOR/SUICIDAL CONCERNS THEY WILL BE
MONITORED VERY CLOSELY. IT WAS A VERY CLEAN
FACILITY. THE EMPLOYEES WERE FRIENDLY.
Joe Smith: That it gets extremely lonely and that there
aren't any real opportunities for stimulation.
You are treated like an animal and you are made
to feel as though you are less than human.
JM: Is there anything else you would recommend to a future inmate?
Jessica: STAY OUT OF TROUBLE WHILE IN JAIL. THIS ONLY
MAKES YOUR TIME A MORE ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE WHILE
IN JAIL. COOPERATE WITH EVERYONE. REMEMBER WHY
YOU WERE PUT IN JAIL IN THE FIRST PLACE AND VOW
TO NEVER DISOBEY THE LAW AGAIN, OR YOU WILL
ALWAYS END UP BACK IN THE SAME PLACE,
JAIL....LOOSING WHAT YOU CALL "FREEDOM"
Joe Smith: Avoid going to jail. And if you do go, remember
just how bad it was.
