I've been pretty much all over the county except the back-roads in the mountains so I want to know where the heck dis freggin Jail is my friend went in to. And if anybody has pictures/Experience of it?

Is it by the Prison on State Street that has the one barbed wire fence and garden like area? Or down the hill from the dump on Highway 22?

I won't get into things anymore unless you ask as I get people confuses easy with long posts which is probably why they don't respond.:( Plus this isn't an active area like it should be with info and possible first-hand stories with the Oregon law system.

Are you talking about Oregon State Penitentiary? I've put a link below for you to check it out.

Marion County Jail is near the OSCI, which is the prison right next to the dump. The jail is actually a bit southwest of OSCI. Here's the link for a few pics.

It sounds like OPS Minium with the garden you discribe, however, being on Hwy 22 I would say OSCI. You can look his name up on Vinelink.com and it will tell you exactly what prison he is in and then you can go to that thread and read all about it.

As far as activity goes, now that summer is up we will see more people posting again. Remember it also helps when you are at the prisons visiting to let people know about PTO and how to log in. I know that I have had a few newbies sign up this last month. Want more activity...then let people know we are here so we can learn from everyones experiences....just a thought!

Hmmmmmmm.That's odd What is the jail that has the running track and low fence? There is the Big one on Highway 22 and there is the one in that photo but there is a 3rd one that has a low fence and a track which I saw shadows of inmates on it.
