Male, 60
I worked for the California state system, starting as a Correctional Officer and retiring as a Lieutenant in 2005. I now write for the PacoVilla blog which is concerned with what could broadly be called The Correctional System.
None that I am aware of. Possibly Mariah (TV SHOW) was in the same time zone.

Sorry, but I don't remember for sure. Possession of the tattoo gun is different than tattooing. I THINK the gun is 30 days. Since the law has changed now and putting tattoos on someone without a health certificiate is a crime now in California that would carry a much heavier penalty.

Drugs. Porn is pretty good too, at least in prisons where it is prohibited.
Share Answer: 
Some girls like bad boys. Sometimes it is just the forbidden fruit. Also inmates are, as a group, very good at sensing flaws and targeting people with them. In most states sex between inmates and staff is considered rape because the staff have power over inmates. They are normally fired if they don't quit first, and they are often prosecuted.

Professional Reseller
What kind of mark-ups can you fetch on the clothing you resell from thrift stores?
Pharmacist
Have you ever given someone the wrong prescription?
Not in California, not for years. They MAYBE still have some in the fire camps where physical conditioning is important, but I think not. The weight piles disappeared from California pens over ten years go.

I have been gone for quite a while, but the last time I checked it was roughly 30% white, 30% black, 30% hispanic with the rest made up other American Indians, Pacific Islanders, S/E Asians, etc. Since California had about an 11% black and 19% hispanic population at that time you can see whites are significantly underrepresented in the prison population and hispanics and blacks are significantly overrepresented. There has been a census since I retired so I am confident those numbers are no longer accurate.

Not as easily as before, at least in California, due to cutting off of grant money. Other than that it is certainly possible, all you need is the teachers the time and the class material.
