Former Inmate

This place like every ADC facility is a s*** hole! The shift in personnel has shifted to females who have gang ties. Bring in drugs, phones and other paraphernalia! Senior officers lie to you, will not help! There’s open homosexuality, fighting, drug and cell phone use and the guards do nothing! Inmates dying ALMOST daily! From drugs or fighting! Luckily, no one cares! Not the governor, ADC director, wardens, no one!!! Not even the State Police! So….. How do I know? I wrote everyone of them and they did NOTHING!!!!

When visiting, the guards are unfriendly and treat visitors as though they are criminals. Commissary is too expensive and not enough variety and choices. Inmate meals should be better than just the bare minimum to keep them alive. There should be more meals brought in for the inmates on special occasions, as well as other fun activities.
