He was moved to the ferguson unit. I'm still not sure it's his final destination so we will make some calls Monday as well. When we were leaving visit sat we ran into a lady on her way in looking for change to go in with. Her brother had also just been moved there from Connelly. I hope u get contact with him soon. Those stretches of no calls and/or mail are tough to get thru!

I called mail room Thursday and was told that Wednesday. Jpays had been delivered for ones sent up until Tuesday and that Friday they were expecting jpays from Wednesday. And Thursday.so I'm assuming they are being taken to prison every other day. Last letter I got was from the 16 and that was received on the 20 the and babe was still asking why he hadn't received mail since the 11 the.... I hope I get mail tomorrow with something more current. I cut back on jpays a little and sent him pics and a hand written letter that he should have received Friday

I asked my husband yesterday if he had gotten any mail and he said that he got the jpays that i sent last week. I mailed him a handwritten letter on Wednesday and he got that one on Friday.

I'm glad you got a phone call. I'm still waiting to hear from mine. This is crazy, I don't know how I get through all this. But I called the mail room at Connally right now and they said the inmates received all Jpays sent through Friday. And I called Jpay and asked mail room at Connally if the equipment has been repaired, but it hasn't. I pray that I get a call today.

Yeah, will trip out on this, I received a letter today from my love, Arnulfo, and he said that he hadn't called back because we used the 500 minutes for the month of July. I didn't realize that, so I put myself through all this craziness for nothing. And on Thursday night he received what he should have got on Mon. and Tues. night, but he wrote me a letter he sent out Friday morning and by some miracle I received it today. I live in California, so that is great that it only took one day because he was able to tell me why he hadn't called. And I'm very upset about the water situation. I'm going to write to the TX health dept. because he wrote that earlier in the week they turned the water off again. I knew that they were letting them shower every other day, but keeping all the water on so that they can use the toilet and sink, but to me it sounded like they shut all the water off. That's wrong, it is hot in there, and with no water. I wrote to a senator and I'm going to bug a lot of people because this is wrong.

I called jpay today and they said that Connally received the new equipt they need to print the emails we send, but they are having problems configuring it with SECURUS. In other words the same company that monitors the phone calls must monitor the emails we send. They need to figure this out.

He marks the envelope at the bottom with the date he sends it out to be mailed, sometimes he writes 3 letters a week, but all 3 get here together. It seems as if they all just get mailed out on Friday. And the amount of days it takes to get a letter varies from like 4 to 2 days

Thats what Fabian said too...he said I see its taking forever for you to get my letters and the jpays aren't coming fast enough. He had received my snail mail letter and pics but said mail call is sad with out the daily mail. Poor babe but I've been missing his letters too and he mentioned that they had gone 4 days without water because some men had beat up some guards in the section next to them....smh cruel punishment
