Interview with Timmy


JM: How many different blocks were there?
Timmy: I don't honestly know. Frost proof is massive. There are maybe 50 pods housing up to 70 inmates. They are not all in use. Annex has about 6 dorms. Each has way too many inmates for what it was designed for.

JM: Did they have names? If so, what were they?
Timmy: I don't remember the names.

JM: Which inmates were housed in the different blocks?
Timmy: There are maximum security dorms at Frostproof but they only differ from the rest in the number of total inmates they hold. Max dorms are half size. There is a protective custody dorm and a max dorm at the annex but they are are small 2 man cells.

JM: What do you remember being the nicest and worst parts about the different blocks?
Timmy: Best: Frostproof. Frostproof, has large and spacious dorms. Ample shower facilities. A toilet in every 2 man cell. More telephones. 2 televisions. Worst: Annex. It is a hell hole. The only saving grace is that it is temporary.
