I just found this site and I'm new to the computer as well. My husband is at usp leavenworth Kansas. Any info would be a blessing for me.

Welcome to PTO!
There are some post on here with Leavenworth. There is a search button at the top on the right. If you click on it then enter USP Leavensworth for search it should pull some topics up for you. If you need more help, let us know!

MY BOYFRIEND IS IN ALABAMA, I AM IN SOUTH FLORIDA. HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO TRANSFER FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS, LAST WK THE WARDEN TOLD HIM SHE WOULD SIGN OFF ON THE TRANSFER BUT THE REGION DID NOT APPROVE IT . BOP DOES NOT CARE ABOUT FAMILY. MY BOYFRIEND'S DAUGHTER HAS A HANDICAP AND HIS PARENTS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO VISIT FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS. SAD THING, THERE IS SPACE HERE IN MIA CAMP. WE REALLY THOUGHT HE WOULD GET APPROVE HE HAS 14 MONTHS TO HIS RELEASE DATE.

My king is in FCI Forrest City, AR and I'm in Atlanta, GA. He's been in Arkansas over a year now. He recently tried to get a transfer closer to home (we're both from Alabama) but it was denied because of a pending charge.

my boo is in florida. i am in ohio. he is trying to get a transfer to some place closer. if we get married will that help?

tnt,

Getting married won't get your boo transfered closer to you. A friend of mine was in FCI Lexington, Kentucky when he married his girlfriend earlier this year. They are both from Alabama & share a child. Now the BOP has moved him to FCI Texarkana, Texas. Bottom line is...BOP doesn't care about families at all.

Hi.....I just found this site..My son called me an hour ago (he was in sheridan feds) and he's in the middle of a transfer to Atwater....Does anyone know anything about Atwater?? I always worry when he gets a transfer...i get afraid the next will be worse than the last. Any info would help,k but do me a favor and do not soften it for me. Thanks...Patty

This transfer sounds funny...........he has only been in the feds about 14 months...but he had 2 fights in sheridan so they said he was too much too handle and transferred him to atwater.....is this typical????

pattyslc · #**220** 11-17-2003, 09:21 PM

my son just got transferred out of sheridan to atwater. He had been n the hole in sheridan for a few months. Sure hope you hubby is handling sheridan better than my son did.
God Bless you.

kintml2u · #**221** 11-18-2003, 06:09 AM

Welcome to PTO Patty!

Someone around here has info on Atwater...I believe a husband has been there. With the fighting...yes thats a normal thing.
Glad you found us!

pattyslc · #**222** 11-18-2003, 02:11 PM

Thanks Diane.
Hopefully someonw will read my message with a loved in Atwater. I appreciate your reply. I can't believe I never found this site before, I've been going through the prison system with my son for 10 years now...alone....now I don't feel so all alone. Your in Baltimore? I lived there for a year. Hope to hear from you again.

pattyslc · #**223** 11-18-2003, 02:18 PM

I just want to send a message to everyone on PTO. I just read alot of the messages last night...and it really had an affect on me. It made me feel like crying.........so many.....so alone....Thank God we have eachother on this site. I don't know about the rest of you....but for me...it's nice to not be alone. I never tell my son if I cry for him or my arms ache to hug him because he has enough to think about in there..I don't want him to have to deal with my emotions. I just let him think how big and strong I am. But, in reality I miss him more than anything in this world. I worry about him constantly and situations he could get into. So far, God has answered my prayers and kept him safe. Now, I have other people to talk to who are going through the same things..........THANKS PTO. God Bless each and everyone of you and your loved ones.

Tailgate2u · #**224** 11-18-2003, 03:23 PM

Help! I am in need of some support,I have never had to deal with before.What do I do? We separated,but only to find that we were looking for each other and now that he is in prison we have and I don't know if I should try to revive our relationship at this point.What should I do?Any good advice?

Coral · #**225** 11-18-2003, 03:29 PM

Follow your Heart............even if it's just as a supportive friend........prison is an aweful place to be, I am told ! One loses all sense of being..........

God Bless
