HI Everyone,

I should have just made one post about Ware State Prison. Too late now, anyway, if there is anyone who knows something about Ware state prison I would appreciate some gaps filled in. Such as, are the libraries well stocked? What do the inmates do? Are there sports? What can be sent to them? I have a lot of questions, for someone who may have someone in Ware that could share their information with me. My son is there, and it's been a night mare. Also, what can they buy in the prison store other than tolitries? If they have no money, are any tolitries given to them?? First thought that comes to my mind, no a/c and no personal hygiene products? I hope someone can clue me, otherwise my mind thinks up the worse. My son writes, but his letters never quite give me the full picture a mom needs.

Thanks for any info you can offer.

Have you tired the GDC website yet and gone to facilities query? Plus if you call the prison they can give you alot of info on the do's and don'ts. Tell your son to send you a store call sheet. This way you can see exactly what he is allowed to buy at the store and how much they charge. Sorry I can't give you info specific to Ware but I'm sure someone will come along soon who can. :)

I don't know a whole lot about Ware State Prison but my boyfriend is in there. He doesn't talk much about it but I do know he said it got very boring because they had nothing to do all day and he said he reads a lot now because of it. I send him puzzles and things like that sometimes to pass the time. I know there is no air conditioner only fans and he said that doesn't help its so crowded. I believe they give them some tolitries. They are allowed a package list every month. This past month what was on the list he could have was cds, cards, hair brushes, pajamas, towels, wash cloths, games, pictures, socks, thermal underwear, undershirts, a watch, and a religious necklace. I heard it was a nightmare in there too. I hope this information helps a little and if there is anything I else I can help you with please let me know.
