My LO is at Terrell Unit & they are now on lockdown as well. He’s told me before there are different levels of lockdown plus he is in trusty camp so is this medical lockdown one where they cant use the phones either?

Does anybody know something about Reeves III located at Pecos, tx. I am 14 hours away and there's no information about how is there going, last time my brother called me was a week ago, so I'm really worried.

I read Texas Prisons have the highest COVID19 positives in the nation. They have been accused of putting prisoners who tested positive in the same cell as those who are negative. My son’s release date has been rescheduled four times due to the mismanagement of Skyview Prison. I don’t know why the prisoners who are scheduled to be released are not put in area away from the general population and positive prisoners should be quarantined away from the general population. I would not be surprised to see a class action case against Texas prisons.
