Inmates in a halfway house are permitted to leave for work, treatment meetings, church and short trips to the store. Obviously, if they are out getting employment, they are going to run into people on the street, women, too.

You know better than they do for sure. Listen to your heart only!

unfortunately no. inmates have a right of privacy from anyone peering into their personal information while incarcerated. The inmates are afforded privacy as it relates to their visitation list, their phone list and who is putting money on their commissary. The only person that can tell you is the inmate themselves. Use your instinct and good sense.

Every journey starts with the first step. If you want this to work, start by reaching out. In general, I would say that inmates love getting stuff in the mail - that'll be a way to his heart to get things rolling again. Send a letter and see what happens. If you use InmateAid and don't want to give you address, you can use our Inmate Response service that'll keep your whereabouts anonymous. Good luck!

Yes, you can always rekindle old friendships with a little humility and willingness to let the past go. Try a letter or postcard to get the spark ignited, you never know what will happen, give it a try!

Anything is possible, but it would be information we would not have first-hand knowledge about

People who go to jail a lot seem to be on the move quite often. It has nothing to do with caring, its about survival in many cases. If you have moved on, it's probably for the best.

Depends on the person, being in jail will change only those that can see they need changing. Jasil for many is a wake-up call. If it's not a wake-up call then they are lying to themselves and probably others, too.

it does happen sometimes, you read about guards getting caught up in things with the inmates. once the affair is exposed, the offending guard is prosecuted and charged with a felony. Their punishment: the inmate gets a few months in the SHU but the prison guard ends up an inmate in prison themselves.

Not likely, however it does happen from time-to-time at institutions across the country. We post stories of women who have compromised the system by having an affair and then doing something that crossed the legal-line. Then they get arrested and become an inmate themselves.
