David wade is a very sad place to visit, even tho I know jail doesn’t suppose to be fun. The correction officers are very mean to the public and the inmates. Officers are always angry when they answers the phone. I never get an answer. The warden never calls you back. This place gives me anxiety when I pull up for a visit. There is no way any inmate and prosper so many sad face it’s like a dark cloud on David Wade.
