So what do you people do with punk ass bitches

Asked by Fighter almost 7 years ago

Nothing. The prisoners mostly deal with that issue.

As of recent has there been anyone who's dug a tunnel out of a prison?

Asked by Andy about 7 years ago

Not that I know of, but it does happen from time to time.

Is it true that their letting some really bad people out of prison because of the virus? What do you think about this it made me really mad when I saw a child rapist went free because of it.

Asked by ASDF about 6 years ago

Depends who you ask. If you were to ask Governor Newsom the people being let out early are all wonderful human beings who are only in prison for singing too loud in church. If you ask anybody else they would say something different. CA judges offenders for their most recent conviction offense. So a person can be a multiple convicted child molester, a murderer and a rapist and if his most recent conviction was for shoplifting they consider that person to be a low risk, non-violent offender. CA is strange.

Why do you think so many people on this site want people to give them the answer they wanna hear instead of the truth or your (or whomever their asking) opinion? I mean they already told them selves so whats the point?

my wife is in jail shes mental health scared and in medical the captin came to her with my mugshot asking why why why him and started asking what gang im in and all this is that legal

Asked by cory jackson over 6 years ago

From what I can tell (your writing leaves something to be desired) the Captain at the jail asked your wife what gang you are in. As far as I know it is perfectly legal for him to ask. It is also perfectly legal for her to tell him to pound sand.

Do inmates do nasty things to the food when they work behind the counter serving food?

Asked by Martian over 6 years ago

Not usually. Inmates have to eat the food. Somebody would snitch. Somebody would get thumped.
