Jail finds
|
These are things I find abandoned in
books or stuffed on the book cart at the
jail where I volunteer. If you like these, please consider
donating a book from our Amazon wish list.
A little context: these come from a
county jail, not a state prison - a very
important distinction. Most inmates
(approx. 75%) are short-term
"holds."
They're there awaiting trial (meaning
they couldn't afford bail); on probation
violations; or are federal prisoners
being shuffled around the system. About
1/4 are women and 1/3 are minorities.
The vast majority stay less than 30
days.
