Food sucks, and big portions. I spent time in CRU dorm, block 24 in a main room, where we were all on bunk beds...like an army camp...

There are lots of Locolz in prison in Island Lake (St.Theresa Point). Too many Locolz started fighting Soldiers, and Soldiers came to help the police in Island Lake. There's a brood war in Garden Hill. Krazies started to kill Renegades in public even, everywhere, then the Krazies were sent to Winnipeg Prison.

my babys dad went to jail when she was only three months old for hitting a man, the police called it aggrivated assult and gave him three year, now my baby is two and he has not been able to see her because again the police gave me probation and they will not let us have visitations, so because of a twisted system they are keeping family's apart!!!!

Well i've been in jail practically half my life,and i joined up with a gang and to me seriously! it's all but a bunch of waste of time and life, rotting away in a jail cell just because we think we are gangsters but some people don't know to act but instead they act so stupid and they hurt our own people, us natives are supposed to be together and be as one only but were so blind to see that now the white man are laughing at us cause were killing our own people off one by one and the jails are filled up with natives, when are we gonna realize this

I spent a few years in Oklahoma Prison in Taft Ok., called Dr. Eddie Warrior State Pen. I fell out of Stephens County. One redneck place, avoid it if all possible, don't even drive through this place. My time - I cried for at least a year every day of the week. The hardest thing for me to get used to - so many women. All ages and all shapes and races. It was totally overwhelming for me! I was 48 when I went in. The guards were okay to a certain extent, but there were those few who were "just downright wrong!" The noise was mind blowing sometimes, I wanted to find a corner and hide. The food was gross, small portions. Stamped on the box in the kitchen "FOR INMATE CONSUMPTION ONLY" now that was the lunch meat and it didn't even look like meat at all. Medical care - so so. Guards brought in tobacco and sold it. And sexual favors went down. And the lesbian activity was really bad. Scar me for life that is for sure. Didn't need to see that crap! But basically - the prison system here needs reform. Warehousing people is not the answer to the country's prison system, but it's a money making business for the state and they get money from the Feds - what a scam. So more people in jail = more money! Just not right and needs to stop. I pray nightly that the people that are held captive stay strong mentally and find a way to cope with life in prison.

Some of the correctional strategies are helping some inmates but physically hurting others. My freind was put in prison by a crooked boss and because he is high up in politics, is a pillar of the community, and has money he still walks the streets. My friend found a good paying job after the crooked boss and had to give up her job to go to prison. Now she has a felony record, and can forget paying restitution.
Upon arrival she was put in a military type boot camp for training and developed some severe medical problems because of the program. Now she is going to have to have a hysterectomy and her bladder tied up.

Jail sucks, nobody shows respect, guards treat you shitty, sometimes. I hate the Soldiers, Renegades, and IP's for getting me raped, and killing some of my friends.
