Laura: They were lettered. I, K, L, M, N, O, P

JM: Which types of inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Jorge: THe blacks were kept in seperate cells from the hispanics and of course all the gays and child molesters were segregated also.
Laura: again, we were segregated based on charges and length of time sentenced. Everyone starts out in 1 of 2 pods and then gets moved around after classification.

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Jorge: Nuthin
Laura: For the first part of being there you are stuck in the Newbie pods, that have no books to read, nothing to do because everyone there is just starting out an has nothing to share. The other pods have people that have been there longer and have books to share, better commissary stashes.
