bec25,

Welcome to PTO!

I don't know where to start with the good or the bad... sorry but your question is so general.

Are there specific things that you want to know? If you go to the Prison Profiles Forum you will find links that will take you to the prison site where your father is - that may answer some questions.

Other than that, I suggest that you pose more specific questions as to what you want to know about and I am sure that someone will have the answer.

Good luck to you and your father!

Welcome to PTO bec! If you ask more specific questions like teb said we may be able to help. Did he just go in and that's why he is in Jackson? Is he in intake there? I am from Michigan and there are many of us on PTO--we should be able to answer your questions if we know a bit more....

Deb

Hi bec, I'm from MI also. We will do our best to help you just ask away. Did you look on the MDOC websight for your father? If you click on his inmate number it should bring up his picture.

Hey Bec,

Im Katie. Shell021001's daughter. I am 12. I know how you feel. It is really hard to grow up without a dad. I dont understand much about this prison stuff either. All i can say is my mom told me that there is a good part and a bad part of Prison. If your dad is put in the bad part with people who have nothing to lose cause they are in there already then thats a bad thing. If he is put in the good part of the prison then there isnt that much to worry about. You can make it though cause if i can then you can. im barley making it, but im making it.
