I’ve been here a few months. I’m done with school so I get to go out and do a lot of gardening and tree trimming and stuff with my brother. We go out early and comeback mid day. It gets hot. I have another six weeks to go. They do a pretty good pat down on us when we come back.

Two counts of possession of marijuana, burglary, controlled substance, shoplifting, trespassing-That’s about it. I made mistakes in life. God is helping me change.

They come in once a day and do a search of my room. Everything I have in there, EVERYTHING, goes out–including the inside of the mattress and a body search–once a day. It happens anytime. Random.
