Just recieved my letter and I'm headed to Carswell. How do I know if it is the camp or the FMC that I've been assigned to. The letter doesn't specifically say. I have no medical issues, so hopefully, it's the camp. I feel so much better after reading all of the info on this site regarding Carswell. Thanks to everyone for all of your support!

Hey JKENNADY,

Good luck to both of you and God bless

I just got back from the camp at Carswell. You can feel free to PM me with questions. I know this time waiting to self surrender is tough, but it isn't a bad place.

You will not be able to tell by your letter if you are camp designated. I called Carswell directly to get that information. You can get the number off of the BOP website.

Dear Scared/unsure
My wife has just been sentenced to 48 months and we are hoping for Carswell. Can you tell me if this is a good wish? I mean I have heard so many horror stories about the conditions there being so bad about medical provisison and everyhting. Please let me know if I am worrying about nothing or if my worries are legitimate
Thanks
K. from Texas

I was recently told I would be heading to Carswell. Like everyone else I'm not sure if it's Camp or FMC, hopefully Camp. This site has been a Godsend for me. I was scared and felt so alone. Texas is a LONG way from Alaska but everyone has been so nice. God Bless you all.
