Topic: The Club House / Hospitalized Inmates getting visits?

Thank you, Campi, Squeeze, and Mick for shedding some light on our family’s situation. It all makes sense to me now. The safety of everybody involved is #1. It’s too bad it has to be that way, but I truly do understand. Thanks again!

First off, " Mr Correctional Professional, " I’m not looking for any sympathy. It sickens me every time I think about what he has done. But that doesn’t change the fact that he was my brother. I simply want to know why his family wasn’t contacted when he was placed in the hospital. He was there for about a week and they pretty much knew the prognosis. Is it the inmates decision weather or not family is contacted in that situation?

I need to do a little venting myself. It should depend on the offense of the inmate, I mean come on!!! The prison knows pretty much everything about the inmate, as in current and previous offenses. My brother had a clean record up until a year in a half ago when he responded to an app on his phone that detects people using GPS. The person that messaged him was a police officer posing as a 15 or 14 year old asking him to come over to have sex. My brother apparently drove to the bait house, but didn’t stop. Drove right past then they pulled him over and arrested him. He never said he didn’t do anything wrong. He admitted he “fucked up” and they sent him to prison for a year in a half. He only made it 6 months. He died in a hospital on July 9th 2014. NO CONTACT FROM ANYBODY when he was admitted to the hospital!!!! I do understand security should be the most important thing when an inmate is admitted to a hospital, but consider the offense. So now I have to live with the fact that my brother died thinking I was mad at him for what he put the family through. Has anybody else been through something similar?? It’s just soooo hard…..
