The staff does not allow inmates regular recreation, and are not at all prompt in getting their…read morepaperwork done so that the inmates can have money sent in for bare necessities such as hygiene. I literally called everyday trying to get them on the ball about my wife's situation and was given a different excuse every day

Place is full of black mold, they have assigned bunks that are underneath leaking exhaust vents and…read moreyou will get sent back to county if you're not in your assigned bunk so your forced to sleep in a wet bed, multiple inmates were beaten and sent to the ER even though it's only a 90 day program, they do not give access to the phone system for the first 2-3 weeks making it hard to contact your family and let them know where you are or if you're safe, almost little to no access to commissary, irregular food schedules, inmate taught classes, the workers, teachers, and guards, smuggles stuff in knowing that the people have addiction issues, forged training documents by the instructors for classes that were never taught, lack of response for medical request, and the CO's and their commanding officers that love yelling, cussing at, and disrespecting individuals who are supposed to be in a rehab program to control their anger and cognitive and behavioral functions when they can't control their own. It was not a safe location. Positive- The religious programs are great and some of the CO's and teachers actually care. The program helped a lot of guys get their GED and for the longer programs it helped people get some other life skills.

Doesn't look like much from the outside, and thats because it's not. Meals were served promptly…read more However, there are endless opportunities as far as the menu is concerned. The meals are repetitive and often lack any kind of diversity or flavor. The staff are hit-and-miss. Definitely could use some training to improve the customer experience. I didn't feel as if the customer was right at all. And what's worse... the staff knew it. The environment overall was less than peaceful. Getting enough rest or finding quiet time to read was a constant struggle. The beds were very uncomfortable and I didn't get the support that I'm used to. Think of sleeping on a hard surface with a blanket for a mattress. The amenities were reasonable. The television has a nice selection of channels and the acoustics provide a surround sound experience. The shower had excellent water pressure and was always a comfortable temperature. Transportation from the establishment is rough yet punctual. Words like confining or shackling come to mind. Audio is controlled by the driver, and they are terrible dj's. Overall I would NOT recommend this for a stay.

i dont know about the jail. i do my best to stay out of there. BUT as far as help smith county has…read moresome of the best deputies in texas! naming one-Trekobe Washington! he rocks! long boring story, but lets say he helped me from having a break down over being scammed. he went above and beyond, and was never anything but amazingly polite. now days everyone complains and downgrades the police-until they need them of course! thank you for all of your help deputy Washington! you are a BIG TEXAS good guy!
