People in prison usually man up and get with it after a month because we have to. But in jail, there’s a bunch of candy ass kids who usually spend time all day on the phone with friends and girlfriends, crying most of the time. The most pathetic sight was seeing what some of these kids would do to get food. I saw a kid come in to serve 30 DAYS for dui and after a week he was giving handjobs in the shower for soups. those drug addicts are pathetic sights once they cant get their fix

One of the guards that got off suicide watch at the maximum security facility told me a soldier cut his wrist and pulled a vein out.

My brother had the guy in the bunk above him commit suicide during the night and woke up to blood dripping on his face when he was serving 6 months for cocaine possession.

In the “rec room” you could look down and see the rec room of the female floor one floor below..through a very thick wire screen. The guys hooked up a car out of dental floss from the sixth to the fifth and did the following: they would jerk off into a tissue, send it down the car, and one of the female detainees would, er..stuff it up there. If a Fed detainee gets pregnant inside, chances are she walks. So the rec room eventually became a load of guys jerking off into kleenex and sending them down the car.

I saw a suicide a few months ago while I was in the pen. This kid was 18 and we were in a 2 story temporary cell right after I got in. he was crying at night time when everyone was trying to sleep and was in for attempted murder. He just got out of his bed and started walking up the stairs. The dep was in the corner just screaming “inmate get back to your cell NOW!” he walked up the stairs and stood on the top railing. the way the cell was set up the deputy couldn’t of gotten over in time, he was standing on the second floor on the railing crying repeating “my dad is going to kill me” by then we all knew what was about to happen and got up. This Arabian dude was like “no he is not no he wont” but the kid just goes yes he would and then jumped off head first into the concrete floor.
