Hello, and welcome to PTO. Have you checked out the IL forums for Graham and Taylorville? I dont have alot of current info on those fcailities since my guy was there back in 2005. I hope you find out what you are looking for and good luck on reconnecting with your first love...so sweet! Stay Blessed!
Thanks your your kind response. As I mentioned, I'm very new at this, but have read all I can from the IDOC web pages and here in PTO. After already waiting 42 years, I can certainly exercise a little more patience. It does seem rather harsh to be in receiving for such a long period, but I have to believe my loved one will soon make it to his primary facility. There seems to be little or no current information regarding this subject, so . . .
Hello, I've been on here a time or two, just trying to find information... I am from Bama and understand how things work here. Just been fascinated with laws. I am a friend of the family who has a son that is in. We've been talking for some time now. Just trying to fully understand everything. I feel the frustration on his end and of his mothers also. There is so much information about his good time and when he is up for parole but nothing matches up. But mostly, i feel for his parents. Been trying to get information about Parole out of state but that seems to be limited information that i just dont understand why. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I'm Maddie and I have a very close friend at USP Marion. I miss him very much...
I hope to meet some people here who have friends or family at Marion as well and who want to share some experiences with me or just talk about anything.
Thanks!

Hello everyone, I am so glad to find an illinois group I've been checking out the pto site for nearly a month and thought it would be great to be able to talk specifically about the prison I'm dealing with. So glad to be here

My name is briana and my husband got taken 2 days ago. I'm scared and confused cuz I don't know much of how any of this works. I know right now he's in pike county jail temporarily until they find him an open federal spot close to Springfield where me and our son are...my husband is in prison for 14, our son is in foster care and I just need someone I can talk to...I posted a general introduction ad was directed here...I'm so scared.
