By writing letters to universities, he found his way into a college program. After earning an undergraduate degree, he pursued a master's degree. After earning a master's degree, he began work toward a doctorate degree. When authorities blocked his pathway to complete his formal education, Santos shifted his energy to publishing and creating business opportunities from inside of prison boundaries.In the final section, we learn how Santos relied upon critical-thinking skills to position himself for a successful journey inside. He nurtured a relationship with Carole and married her inside of a prison visiting room. Then, he began building businesses that would allow him to return to society strong, with his dignity intact.Through Earning Freedom! readers learn how to overcome struggles and challenges. At any time, we can recalibrate, we can begin working toward a better life. Santos served 9,135 days in prison, and another 365 days in a halfway house before concluding 26 years as a federal prisoner. Through his various websites, he continues to document how the decisions he made in prison put him on a pathway to succeed upon release.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2020 Federal Prison Preparation Manual, is a clear, concise and indispensable overview of life in the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), in terms of both inmate culture and the BOP rules and policies which govern all. The manual touches on a wide array of aspects of the Federal prison experience: from what one needs to do before entering the system; what one should expect from both staff and other inmates during incarceration; and what one should do to survive and thrive in the netherworld of prison and its welter of rules and inconsistencies. Whether male or female, whether destined for a penitentiary or camp, or whether one's sentence is measured in months or years, this manual strives to serve as a bible for someone ensnared in the Federal penal system to enter with confidence, endure the hardship with good grace, and emerge unscathed and stronger as one returns to the real world. The manual is all-inclusive, updated as new developments warrant, and is sweeping in its breadth and depth of analysis of all aspects, both formal and informal, written and unwritten, of life in a Federal prison. Q. Does the Manual provide information about how the Bureau of Prisons classifies it's institutions? A. Yes. The Manual provides clear and concise explanations as to how the Bureau classifies it's institutions, and how they determine what security level facility to which each inmate will be designated to serve his/her sentence. Individual worksheets, similar to those used by BOP staff, are included to assist in determining the security level of prison to which you will be designated. There are also recommendations which may help you secure placement in a prison of your choice. Q. Does the Manual provide information about how the BOP uses the Pre-Sentence Investigation Report? A. Yes it does. The Pre-Sentence Report is utilized by the BOP from the time of initial designation and throughout an inmate's term of confinement. Because of its importance, a significant portion of the discussion in part one focuses on the Pre-Sentence Investigation and Pre-Sentence Report. Information to assist you in ensuring that your PSR contains complete accurate information is provided. Q. I was told the Bureau of Prisons has a program in place that requires inmates to pay on their court-ordered assessments, restitution, and/or fines. Does the Manual offer information about this program? A. Yes. The Bureau of Prisons has implemented the Inmate Financial Responsibility Program. The program is voluntary; however, individuals who refuse participation are prohibited from participating and receiving the benefits from other BOP programs. The Manual provides an overview of the program's policies including what obligations the BOP will attempt to collect and how payments are figured. Q. Does the Manual provide information about the Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP)? A. Yes. The Residential Drug Abuse Program is the only program (other than good time credit) that may reduce the amount of time you spend in a federal prison. However, participants must meet strict criteria. Therein not all individuals are eligible to receive the reduction in their sentence for successfully completing the program. The Manual delineates the Bureau's policies surrounding the program, as well as the numerous other cognitive-based treatment programs offered within the Bureau of Prisons. Q. Does the Manual provide any information to assist those who have been convicted of sex offenses (child pornography included)? A. Yes. For safety and security reasons the Bureau of Prisons has employed policies that effect how individuals convicted of sex offenses are managed.

Importantly, this text provides detailed instructions on how prisoners can protect their rights. The author is a college-educated prisoner who has fought extensively to preserve his rights and the rights of other prisoners. Incarceration can be cruel for prisoners and their loved ones. Know what to expect and make the best of this time by staying safe, remaining safe, and building a life behind bars.

Download or read book When You Have to Go to Prison written by Margaret R. Kohut and published by Atlantic Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of people incarcerated across the United States reached two million in 2002. That number has increased since then, and the U.S. holds the highest incarceration rate in the world - one out of every 100 Americans are in prison. The rate of imprisoned females is rising at a faster rate than imprisoned males, and many individuals are imprisoned for non-violent crimes. Individuals with otherwise respectable lives are incarcerated with little or no idea of what to expect and how it will affect them and their families. This book was written to help anyone who is preparing to go to prison with the possibilities, expectations, and realities of their situation from the strain it will put on a marriage, to the conversations you will need to have with your children. You will learn everything you need to know about prison that the system is unwilling to tell you. Learn how visitation works and how often you will be able to see your family. Learn how to discuss prison with your children and how to maintain a healthy relationship with your spouse regardless of the duration of your incarceration. Learn about the unique issues women go through in prison. Learn how to write a loving letter and how to effectively bide your time in prison without succumbing to the temptations and bad influences. Learn how to maintain your dignity and the respect of your children despite everything that has happened, by consistently keeping in touch. After interviewing more than 100 past and present inmates along with their families, this book provides a complete perspective into how people respond to the prospect and reality of incarceration, and what you can do to prepare for those realities. Learn what prison life is really like depending on your crime and where you will be sent. Learn how you can reduce your prison time through good behavior and how you can: prepare your family for your departure, prepare your finances, ensure friends or family members will help your spouse, and set aside the necessary resources to maintain your family's lifestyle and comfort. For anyone preparing to go to prison and leaving behind a family, this book will provide the necessary information that no one else is willing to tell you before you go in.
