I wanted to get some info about the Bowden Institution vs Drumheller Institution. My husband will be placed in either of them to serve his 2 year sentence and I wanted advice on which one he should request to be placed in? He was originally planning on Bowden because it's an hour closer to me than Drumheller, but after speaking with other inmates he has heard that Drumheller is a "better" prison compared to Bowden. Any suggestions on which is better? He heard that Bowdens intake takes a long time and you aren't placed for 3 weeks, no phone calls for 3 weeks.
Is there any truth to that? Thank you!!
