If inmates are on lock down do they have to eat in their cells?

it is up to the instution you are in if it is a maximum security you do not leave the cell for any reason during a lock down ,not even rec,, only way you can move during a lock down is to go to chapel or see your attorney, if you a in a minimum security you may go to chow, chapel,attorney vist, but no rec during a lock down it is for punishment, rec is a privalige, phones are turned off during lock downs as well, but most prisons will allow you to go and eat , to much of a hassel to feed each inmate in cell , plus they would have to have the extra man power ie guards to follow trustees carrying the food

I can tell you what happens in Illinois. You are transported by the Sheriff's deputy to the "processing" prison. In Illinois, that is either Graham, Menard or Statesville. Once there, you are immediately ordered to take off the jail clothes and put this green stuff in your hair to kill lice. then you are ordered to take a quick shower. After the shower, they place you in a cell for the next 2-4 weeks. During this time, you are processed through medical screening, psychological screening and physical screening. You use to be required to take an educational test. If you score below a certain score, you are required to attend school once you get to your placement prison. Where they place you depends on your escape risk, nature of conviction and time to be served. Once the processing is over after the 2-4 weeks at the processing center, then you are placed on a bus and transported to the prison that you will be staying at. However, the processing prison is similar to maximum security in nature. No movement, 2 showers per week, no telephone calls. You are allowed to receive mail and to write. Once you get to your permanant prison site, you are required to work at a job. Usually between .15 cents and .30 cents per hour. This is just enough to pay for the toiletries and personal items at the end of the month. Too many ignorant people sterotype prison as a place where people are raped every day. This is untrue. HOWEVER, inmates do have their own rules and it is definitely a world quite different from the outside. If you break those rules, then you will suffer the consequences. Remember that even if you are there for something petty as a drug conviction, there are murderers even at the minimum facilities. They are there because they have usually less than 5 years to serve on their sentence. It is a transitional period. Do not act as a bad a-s-s because those are the ones that find out the hard way. Do not call anyone a "b-i-t-c-h" or "p-u-n-k". Those two words can get you killed literally. Do not try to stare down another inmate. DO NOT get close to the guards on a friendly basis, otherwise, you will be considered a snitch and considered a danger to the other inmates. This could get you hurt.

It actually depends on the prison, and the type of prison. Is it low, medium or maximum security?\n\nAt a prison here in AZ, Wake up time for inmates is 4:30am, which is when count time is. (count is when they count the inmates to make sure no one escaped). Breakfast is at 5:30am. from the time breakfast ends until lunch, the inmates have rec time on the yard, or if you are a trustee or have some other job, then work starts.   Lunch is at 11:00am. After lunch ends, more rec time, and classes will occur. If you work, you return to the prison at around 4:00pm. Dinner is at 4:30. Lights out is anywhere from 9-10:30. \n\nYes, your family can send you money, which is used to purchase items through the inmate store (such as a tv, radio, food, toiletries) It depends on how much money they send you. If your family cannot afford to send you money, every so often, you will be given a care package from the state containing very low quality toiletries.\n\nIn terms of fighting, there are some fights that do occur, but its not a sucker punch and a riot like some people think. Usually they pick fights with someone and it starts with meaningless threats before someone decides to take it further. Some inmates are usually targetted the moment they get onto the yard because of the offense which they are in their for (child molestation, child murder). Inmates take those kinds of offences very seriously. Which is why when the person first enters prison, they are given the chance to PC (Protective Custody) up. Not to mentions that there are usually gangs that go after each other, or racially motivated attacks. \n\nHope this helps.

Yes, you would burn more calories that way.  You would also be arrested for public indency and if you go to jail you will lose weight because the food isn't good and all you will have time to do is workout.

not that i'm aware of. when my brother was in prison, we were confined to one area at all times during visitation. he was never given any privacy with my sister in law at any time. on some occasions she had to 'smuggle' money in to him, it wasn't easy because you are constantly monitored by one of the screws.

In recent years, Federal Law has recognized that to force a vegetarian to consume meat or go hungry violates the 8th ammendment's protection from cruel and unusual punishment and in several religions, meat is prohibited, making it a matter of religious freedom. While it's sometimes an uphill battle to get the facility to comply with these rules, the law does recognize dietary choice as a Constitutional right and inmates may request vegetarian meals.

Usually you simply enclose a US Postal Service money order with a letter to the inmate, the money order is then deposited to his canteen account but you may want to either call the facility or write to the inmate and ask if there are asny special procedures...also look at http://www.prisontalk.com , someone there will already know the details for that facility.

Just a guess would be a combination of habit (as the other answerer so far has said), and perhaps the extremely unlikely possibility that there will be a reprieve of some sort after the IV lines go in, but before the lethal injection is released. So they'd do the sterile-site thing so there'd be a decreased chance of the prisoner getting some blood-borne disease. \n\nIt's very good question, though. The prison system will go to great lengths to keep a deathrow inmate alive so that s/he'll be healthy at the time of execution. That's justice, no?

Ask the warden at the local prison to have his inmates do the work.\n\nIf he agrees, though, you should but the inmates a nice lunch and some cold drinks.

In many Federal Prisons they get swordfish, salad bars and almost any food you can want.  Candy machines in the housing areas and the such ( ie this was a medium security federal prison)\n\nIn some state prisons they have good regular food ( sort of bland) but have all sorts of snacks, dry soup mixes and all types of snacks they can buy from the prison store.\n\nEach jail or prison will have thier own rules as to what the inmate is allowed or not allowed,\n\nAlso thier secuirty level and / or punishment level, those in solidary for example lost all snacks normaly

lock down is the same everywhere, but can be only a inmate, a cell block or the entire institution.\n\non a inmate, he is in basicly in his cell 24 hours a day 7 days a week, except for manditory yard time ( which is often still by his self)  and to shower.\n\nAn intire cell block can be that way either because it is a lockdown all the time and inmates on lockdown are moved there.  ( called the "hole" on various TV shows)\n\nso if there is a problem, fight or some issue, the guards can call a lock down of that cell block in which all inmates in general population have to return to thier cells right then.

Probably under the Work Release Program, they allow inmates out to go to work, they have to go back and sleep at the prison. It would depends on allot of things I'm guessing, the prison he goes to, his behavior, ect. You could call around and ask, start with a lawyer, either yours or his.

well from past experience they are only allowed to be released for work and thats it if they was found not at work they would get escape charges aginst them so id advise not to let them come home just go see them at work
