Martin County Jail

Closing Advice

Interview with Jenna and Diane


JM: Is there anything else you would want a friend or family member to know if they have a loved one going to jail?
Jenna: jail is not meant to be nice - it is punishment don't worry about it more than you already have - life may not be good or fair - be glad that they are alive - hopefully the one you care for will be scared straight - hahahah - if not at least you know its like learning a vocation - maybe they will be able to find a crime that is more suited for them so they won't get caught next time hahahaha
Diane: Wear plain white underpants and plain white socks and you should be able to keep them. Keep to yourself don't get involved with anyone.

JM: Is there anything else you would recommend to a future inmate?
Jenna: relax - think of it as a mini-vaction - how often in adult life can you be completely taken care of. make new friends, learn from their experiences - where else in the world are you given this opportunity so many crimes to learn about & from
Diane: Yes, don't get arrested this is not a place you want to be, It was the worst experience of my life and I never want to go through it again.
