Does anyone know if they are locked in right now?

boonie'sgirl · #2 07-03-2012, 03:15 PM

I was wondering the same thing, I know my Babe said yesterday he probably wasn't going to be able to move off of his unit because the dueces kept going off and I didn't hear from him last night or today as of yet

mghip · #3 07-03-2012, 03:43 PM

My brother sent an email yesterday saying they were locking in again so he would call when he could but I haven't heard anything as of yet. I called and they didn't answer the phone as usual but the visitation recording sd visitation was cancelled for this weekend, don't know if its related or not.

On Sunday while in visitation the dueces went off as well. We thought they were going to cancel visitation, but they did not. Then Monday morning they were locked in for a bit, and went right back on Monday afternoon. It is getting hot outside, and people start losing their minds in there, so unfortunately, we might see a lot of these lockdowns!

Yes, I was there on Sunday and I do recall the deuces going off, and then when my Babe emailed me and said the same thing, I said to myself, this is a long weekend for visits, I bet they're go on lockdown

I was thinking they may let this go until this Sunday so that they didn't have to be bothered with visits if it wasn't super terrible but, only time will tell.

I was on the phone with someone in Hazelton on Monday afternoon, and just as the call was winding down, he said that at least 2 inmates were getting into a fight...so I'm wondering how long they will be lockdowned too. It's just a waiting game, and means more snail mail letters rather than the emails and calls until lockdown ends.

TABonelove · #7 07-05-2012, 10:55 AM

You are so right about that! Snail mail it will be at least until Sunday!

Thanks for the info, I did call yesterday to see if it was the whole place of just my brother. I am farely new to this, can you tell me how long they last? Or is there no rhime or reason on when they get out? Thank you

TABonelove · #11 07-05-2012, 08:45 AM

Visitation is also cancelled for the weekend, so if you were planning to visit as I was, change your plans. SMH!

TABonelove · #12 07-05-2012, 08:54 AM

It is the holiday, and hopefully it is just the officers wanting to partake in the holiday festivities and do not want to be stuck in there with them allowing us to enjoy our families for the holiday. Depending if that is the case, it could last until Sunday evening or so, if someone got hurt, there is just no telling. We are just getting back to Hazelton ourselves, and a lot of things have changed since we left this spot. There used to be a time they would be lockdown for a month or two, but again, it all depends on what happened, so we will just have to wait it out. If you need to talk while they are lockdown, you can talk to us.

Thanks for all the info, waiting around is the worst part of it all but I do find this site to helpful. Thnks again!

TABonelove · #14 07-06-2012, 01:55 PM

We are going on day 4 today! Man, this is going to be a long weekend! It is hot out there so you guys be careful!

mghip · #15 07-06-2012, 05:19 PM

It sure is going to be a long weekend and yes it is hot! I am in Florida and it has been really hot! Can anyone tell me the longest they have locked them in for??

earthmother · #16 07-06-2012, 06:54 PM

My guy has only just recently been transferred to Hazelton, so this is my first lockdown there. I'm hoping that it'll all be over with after this weekend...but I honestly have no idea of the average lockdown length there. Jut hoping everyone there behaves themselves for awhile once they do come off - I want my emails & phone calls, dammit!!!!

Yes, this has been a rather long week

In January it was around 9 days, I can't remember the last one in May, but it wasn't long, like 3 days. Yes, I want my calls and emails too!!! Has anyone received a letter yet?

TABonelove · #18 07-07-2012, 08:45 AM

Yes, I have received mail.

Hey, i'm in Miami and the lockdown could last for a week or two but if it was dealing with race fight they could be lockdown at less for a month or two. the longest lockdown for about 2 months and i was just sick about that,

prettyreds · #21 07-08-2012, 09:35 PM

This could be a min for all of us just hope and pray it does not ok, I know my husband is fine cause i got 3 letter over the weekend.

earthmother · #22 07-06-2012, 07:50 PM

No snail mail for me today, and no hope of anything until Monday ( no mail here over the weekend). I can manage though because I'm keeping myslef as preoccupied as possible...I'm just hoping some of the mail I've sent to him has made it's way through. Just keeping my fingers crossed that it'll be over with by Monday or Tuesday at the latest.

Thank you all I'm new to this site and I was worrying because I hadn't heard from my husband. Now I know why.

Yes, they have been on locked down since Monday. My husband said they just got showers on Thursday.

Just do not understand why they have to be so mean to them.

I know terrible, I just hate that I can't hear from him. I hope this is over very soon so we all can hear from our loved ones. *frustrated*
