Yes, @Dan, my relative did make a bad choice, but he worked 10 to 12 hours a day on the sides of roads, just as you probably see from time to time, to pay his debt to our society. He did pay his debt and then some, and he learned from his mistake. So cut your crapping on people you know nothing about.

@shay
Your relative working hard all day to make amends. What a load of garbage if your relatives new the meaning of hard work they probably wouldn’t go to prison to begin with. I

@Dan, I am the farthest you can get from liberal. But I do know a thing or two about our state’s fine correctional system. And granted some inmates will use deposited funds for contraband, but as for my experience deposits were made so my relative could have a decent lunch after working hard to make his amends. Something other than a cold peanut butter sandwich. So if by doing that you deem me a liberal, then so be it.

Well, Sunny, your name just might be wrong for you. I do hope and pray nothing in your life ever goes awry so as to find yourself in prison. By your words, you will have no visitors to look forward to.

@kane and other liberals
Money in a inmates account does not lessen the burden on taxpayers it only gives them money to buy contraband and honey buns as for me and my family we were raised to work hard for what we have and even though it may not be much we work for it it’s seems that maybe you and you family could use some good old fashion values

Good call by the DOC. Lock the gates and throw away the key. I know of several people in prison, and I won’t visit them. They did wrong, and they need to pay and kept away from society. They have inmates as their friends, while I have my roommates as my friends. Make it part of their punishment — NO VISITORS. And that depends on the level of security of the prisoner. Minimum to Maximum. You are in prison because you made bad choices. Protect our Officers please. They deserve to live while doing their duty in prisons.

I’m glad a stand is being taking by the department, if we don’t take a stand instead of us running the prison the inmates will run us. Noone really knows what the CO’s go through with on a daily basis, we walk through those gates not knowing if were going to see our families again. Yes there may be some innocent people in prison, but I’m not the judge or the jury, but for the most part there’s noone here for saying goodmoring wrong to the mail lady….

Esc Co Leo- there is a reason why they let inmates families visit. Try to put yourself in the shoes of the inmates loved ones. And everybody deserves a second chance and visits. Most of the real criminals are police and correctional officer anyway but we better not go there

@JP First off JP I am sorry for your loss I hope I never have to endure the hell you have to go through everyday. I am not defending anyone’s actions in my post I was just stating facts. Not everyone in prison killed your son. You have let the loss of your loved one make you a bitter hateful person you should seek help with that.

@DAN Well Dan this is America and that means everyone gets an opinion. You don’t have to like it but there it is. I pay taxes just like you do. As far as family worth goes you must be pretty low on your families priorities list to have such a low opinion of family in general (ie: family doesn’t mean much to you).
