[QUOTE="detachingmother, post: 682253, member: 20063"] Thank you. I have been one mom mildly hoping this would be Son's next destination. Of course, I really do not mean it. It's going to be up to his Judge when he's done with his 4 months in county, then 90 days in inpatient. Then, off to face his felony probation violation in another county. Yes! I learned something too...the classification staff. I might need to know this...so making that mental note. Son has said he would rather go to prison instead of county. This might mean many different things, more access to drugs might be one reason. Though he's never had a problem finding them anywhere else. Probably doing drugs right in the county. He did sound "paranoid" one day when I talked to him...not sure if it was bc he didn't take his own medications, or if it was drugs...And I know for a fact, he got a hold of another inmates depakote. Like SK said, it would be more of a wish to at least know he's safe. Although I would bet that's not a given in the BIG house. In our state a prison boot camp program would be the first stop. Any info on that? The boot camp style? I am envisioning it to be similar to Army boot camp. Thanks for the reminder. And, I also did not know the extent of the programs. That's also good to know. Just a side thought: Our local prison has a warden in BIG trouble. He was caught doing very illegal things for quite some time. Yep, the Warden himself was involved in some very unsavory acts within and outside of the prison walls. With trying not to sound like the town gossip, I will leave out the details, other than one small bit...he had his third DUI (all three while being the Warden), and was also found to be getting money from inmates in a certain illegal way. There was heavy surveillance on him for a very long time, as well, before action was taken. Also, this was kept very hush hush...not even in the news to my knowledge, so I probably better not write too much. Prison is surely NOT a good place to be, but in some cases it will help with maybe knowing where they are... Thanks Jabberwockey. This was helpful info. [/QUOTE]
