My sons was told that the only way to get off this unit was in a body bag. He was told this by a few of the inmates as they tryed to get him to fight with them. He told them no and they told him that he was dead. Wee finally got him moved. Thank God. I called almost daily to check on him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499771428375252228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-28652434187243856772016-07-13T06:39:35.880-05:002016-07-13T06:39:35.880-05:00Close all cca units the officers are dirty and mak...Close all cca units the officers are dirty and make more money bringing I. Things to inmates. And then t.d.c.j start cracking down on dirty officers. And bring back the fear of God and then and only then will Texas crime rates go down. Use these sites to build more industry and give jobs. Take away privileges to offenders. Cuz as a ex guard I have heard them say why should they have to obey the law when they can get three square meals and all bills pay. They don't see it as punishment anymore. The see it as a Damn vacation from responsibility!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-92194545304237610072016-02-07T17:06:38.807-06:002016-02-07T17:06:38.807-06:00Close the Ferguson unit, please.

Let's start on the other end, on the whole idea of criminal justice. Getting the philosophy right and the policies and procedures right that arise from that philosophy of justice will take care of the number and kinds of facilities needed. Let's think big and outside the box: I propose a Texas Congress on Criminal Justice. And I mean "Thinking!"David Enoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-55752912020851016942016-02-01T22:40:10.917-06:002016-02-01T22:40:10.917-06:00Add transfer facilities to the list.
