Unfortunately , it seems there is absolutely no organization , communication within the facility from one employee or department to the other. The only personnel that has tried to assist in the problem to correct the situation that has been reported is Mrs. Bishop and Ms. Avanne. I'm not sure if any type of training takes place at this facility for the employees. Not a good experience at all.

I have been visiting a loved one for years here at the central state prison. The staff is…read moreconstantly mean to us visitors. We are not the criminals, we love our family members and want to be supportive for them but it's very hard on us when we are constantly picked on or harassed. These so called officers who have nothing more to do then say something about your clothes, jewelry, hair, watches or anything else that they want to pick on you about. They tell you what you can't wear and turn around and let another person go in with it on?? They are nasty and rude"God forbid you ask them a question'. We are constantly treated as inmates rather than visitors. We wait in a line every weekend just to be first in line to see our family members just to be told "Sorry our computers are down, or we're short staffed its gonna be a while". It's not our fault what problems y'all have. We are the ones who suffer! How can it be something "EVERY" weekend? I dread going there, we spend so much money there and our visits are what keeps hope and well behavior in the inmates but yet we are treated soooo bad its horrible.I don't know which I'll be happier for"that my love one gets to come home or I don't have to ever go back to central state prison".

Last year I found myself in a facility for relaxation and professional growth known as the Camden…read morecounty jail. This facility uses exhilarating, immersion group therapy. After going through a rough divorce and taking a trip to GA, I found myself gaining admittance to the exclusive Camden County Jail. A kind hearted state trooper escorted me to a group session with my soon to be, new best friends. Soon after being locked in a 10'X12' therapy room with 10 other non-volunteers, I learned why Camden county jail is so famous for its curative therapy sessions. The group was led by a bearded almost budda like figure. He was calm and soothing when he let me know, in his orange jump suit, that I would be out of there in a couple of hours. He was being transferred up but he was there to guide me while he could. Even though he was being held there for child porn or murdering his wife or both, he kept his cool for the benefit of the group. Another member was there for running from the cops when apparently a person that he was selling unregistered pharmaceuticals to was actually an undercover therapy consultant for Camden county jail. They quickly grabbed him after he wrecked his car trying to leave and put him in our session so he could grow from the experience. Some people just don't want help. It was a sort of intervention. The other eight were similar and we all bonded while being in "deprivation chamber therapy." That is being confined to a 10'X12' room with no toilet, with 10 other non-volunteers. We could hear the screams from the solitary confinement therapy chambers. This is only for the most dedicated non-volunteer members at the Camden County Jail. In these therapy sessions you will "find yourself," in a Timothy Leary type of way, and occasionally poop may be smeared on the walls from what I understand. As my session ended I was released with a young marine who had been put into our session for the same "therapy" as me. While we were leaving a man with no clothes on, that could not close his eyes, was banging on the door to get in. Apparently he had tried some sort of drug therapy with less than great results. "Camden County Jail" does not use any drug therapy. They stay focused on the teachings of both Jung and Freud. Talk therapy only, and sleep deprivation. The lights never turn off. Cutting edge psychotherapy. Anyway, me and my new young marine friend both looked at each other as we realized that our group would be changed without us, but that this new non-volunteer member would bring much to the ongoing group session, even though he was completely naked. We both left and were allowed to wear shoes and have our belts back. This is proof that you have finished your session and grown in your understanding of yourself. I learned a lot from my short time at the Camden County Jail. First, everyone screws up and it could always be worse. Second, avoid the naked guy with crazy eyes.

I was a guest there for 16 plus days. The beds are too hard and the accommodations were too cold…read more Showers are difficult to obtain however, the concierge was most accommodating and provided me with a blanket to alleviate the cold. Footwear leaves something to be desired as both of my shoes had the same size written on them, but one was almost 2 inches longer than the other. As for the food, lunch was pretty good but dinner consisted of a bunch of chopped up ( chicken? ) inside of two folded soft tortillas and mustard. Overall my stay was miserable but then again, it's not supposed to be fun. The staff was excellent and extraordinarily professional! The Sheriff has done an excellent job maintaining order, despite the other visitors consistently banging on doors and beating up the other residents. As jails go, I give it four stars. It would have been five but for the mattress and that the cooks use all the spices they can grope for or non at all. I don't plan on returning and will instead choose a hotel in Locust Groce. Thank you.
