A Day in the Prison (1)

Some have been in prison for decades and some have been in prison for months. Regardless of the length of time, the content of prison life they experience is largely the same – boring.

In this era, prison policy is better, prison life is less repressing, less fearful. Maybe it's because of the Lianhuayuan Prison I'm in that way now. I heard from a prisoner transferred from someone else's prison that in the prison where he was located, there was no other pursuit in his day's life, as long as he was not beaten on this day, he would be considered a win.

What the prisoner said was true, and what he said was the same as that of other prisoners who did not know him, who had been transferred from another prison.

Every day of prison life is more or less the same, both in the past and now. The difference is that in the past, there were more criticism meetings, more learning (learning policies, regulations, and norms), and more labor intensity. Now it's more time to watch TV and more time to sleep.

The rest time in prison now looks something like this.

Wake up at 6:00 a.m., have breakfast at 6:30, leave work at 7:00, work at 7:00 to 11:30 for the morning working time, there is a relief time in the middle of the working time, lunch at 11:30, enter the workshop at 12:00, finish at 18:00, and have a relief time in the middle from 12:00 to 18:00. Eat dinner after finishing work and go back to the prison after dinner. 19:00 p.m. is the time for the centralized roll call, and after the roll call, watch the news broadcast.19:30 The episode ends, free activities.20:30 Turn off the TV, the convicts wash up.21:00 All the convicts go back to the cell to sleep.

This current schedule is the best schedule I have had since serving my sentence, because he has fully considered the sleep of the offender. A few years ago, I was serving a prison sentence, and every day I felt like two words: tired, sleepy.

At that time, I was tired and didn't have time to sleep, so I started work at 5 o'clock in the morning and finished at 11 or 12 o'clock in the evening. This is a common thing. Sometimes I go back to my cell and fall asleep on the bed, and my life is bad and chaotic. Well, now the words tired and sleeping are gone in my feelings.

I'm going to break it down and use time to explain how each day in prison is spent.

0:00 to 6:00.

During this time period, only two criminals on duty kept walking around in the corridor, the other criminals were resting, and the door of the cell was locked, and the main thing that could happen during this time was that the criminals on duty accidentally opened the door for those criminals who wanted to go to the toilet, and after opening the door, they had to monitor their toilet to prevent them from doing illegal things in the dead of night.

The vast majority of this time is calm, and the thing that worries the criminals on duty is that some criminals squat in the toilet for too long. It's too long, and they have to run to see it often. Most of the convicts who use the squatting toilet for a long time at night to solve their physiological problems are not considered ugly in prison, and their behavior is more hygienic than those who solve their physical problems in bed, and it does not affect the rest of others.

At this time, most of the people in the cell were asleep, but a few people were reading books, and they were reading very thick fantasy novels. People who read books do not grab praise (administrative rewards) and do not need to reduce their sentences. When the policy is good, people who do not pursue it will have an easy life, they can doze off in the daytime labor, and no one will hold them accountable if they fail to complete the labor task.

Accidents that may occur at night are that some criminals suddenly become ill, and these criminals will be sent to the prison hospital for treatment by the prison guards on duty in time. This is different in the past, when criminals had a sudden illness at night, as long as it was not very serious, they had to stand up on their own. This is the benefit of prison reform, and the life and health of prisoners are guaranteed.

At night, the rest was greatly influenced by the spearmen, and not far from the cell there was a spearmen's turret, and in the dead of night, the spearmen roared and sometimes sang like crazy. When I first moved into this level, I didn't know that the gunmen would be yelling at night.

One night, when I fell asleep, I was awakened by the shouts of the gunners, who kept pulling the bolt and yelling, "Stop, don't stop, I'm shooting."

Did you really run away? Is there going to be such a big thing tonight? I waited diligently for things to turn out.

The spearmen kept tossing and turning, and I counted on the spearmen to catch the escaped man, and wait, wait, and so on, and the gunmen shouted like this all night, and the gunners shouted to each other with the gunmen of the adjacent turret, until dawn.

I got up in the morning and asked the old prisoner if someone had escaped from prison last night. The old prisoner taught me: "A 13-year-old bun, the spearmen make trouble like this every day, you have to get used to it."

The gunners changed stubble after stubble. The ghosts never stopped crying at night.

The criminals on duty at night have a hard time, not only do they have to stay up late, but they also have to deal with sudden inspections. Every night, at some time, the SWAT team and the prison district duty leader will suddenly appear. They will be asked unexpected questions and will be caught with unexpected mistakes.

One night, three criminals on duty walked to a pile, and while they were talking, they were seen by the SWAT team who suddenly arrived, and the three criminals on duty were punished with demerit points. The deduction of points for the three criminals is a trivial matter, and the prison district leaders are very ugly, and this matter was published on the prison website.

Although the criminals on duty are special prisoners and relationship criminals, although they are not engaged in labor, their mental pressure is much greater than that of ordinary criminals.

One night, there was a criminal on duty surnamed Yuan who suddenly went crazy.

On the night when Yuan suddenly went crazy, I slept deeply, and it was about two or three o'clock when I was woken up by a fierce shout and the sound of fists falling on my body. Everyone in the cell was woken up. When we got up to go out of the cell to watch, the door was locked from the outside, and we could only listen in the room, guessing and talking as we went, until an hour later, when the shouting stopped. When the shouting stopped, we went back to sleep with a restless heart.

On the second day, we knew. Yuan is crazy. Yuan Mad suddenly let out a shout of "Kill me" when he was on duty, and slammed his fists on himself.

Yuan was confined to a cell, his madness was in flux, and he was handcuffed to an iron fence during his attacks.

In the evening, the head of the prison district said very pertinently at the inmates' meeting, he believed that Yuan was under too much pressure from the cadres, and at the same time, he also believed that as a special prisoner, he must have the ability to withstand enough pressure.

After Yuan went crazy, he stayed in the prison for two days before being sent to the training team for correction. Later, he may have been identified as a madman and sent to serve his sentence in a sick prison cell.

Yuan's madness may be related to those gunmen who roared at night, maybe their indulgent roars hurt Yuan's nerves, and after Yuan went crazy, he often yelled like a gunner, saying that his parents were locked up in the turret by the gunners, and he was going to rescue his parents.

In order to prove that Yuan's parents were not locked up in the turret, the prison authorities called Yuan's parents. His parents came from far away provinces to meet him, and after meeting him, Yuan stopped yelling at the turret, but he was still crazy.

However, not all criminals on duty are under a lot of pressure, and those who have a particularly hard relationship do not have pressure, and they often get some benefits.

A criminal on duty with a very hard relationship, in the middle of the night, found a prisoner in the toilet, with a rope, whether this rope was used to hang, or his trouser belt is not clear, because of this discovery, this duty criminal was recorded by the secret box operation (listen to this duty criminal secretly told me).

6:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m

The time from six o'clock to seven o'clock is a relatively busy time, during this time, it is necessary to wash, to be convenient, to tidy up personal housekeeping, to do public health on duty crimes, everything is done, gather the whole team, report the number, and then go to the scene of the meal too early, and leave the prison to work after it is too early.

I got up at six o'clock, and after I got up, the criminals on duty knocked on the door and shouted. Seemingly simple knocking on the door and shouting, this is the most headache for the criminals on duty, there are always some people who want to sleep lazy in the morning, there are always some people who think that the shouting and knocking disturb themselves, there are always a few people, scolding at the crime on duty.

It was difficult to scold criminals on duty in the previous era, and at that time, there were not many people who dared to scold criminals on duty, and the criminals on duty were not in a hurry, because the criminals on duty had great power, and after the reform, the criminals on duty were not allowed to beat and scold people, but only served the criminals.

The first thing the offender does when he gets up is to put the quilt in the storeroom, and to put the quilt is to put the quilt covered at night in the storeroom. The storeroom is a room the size of a prison cell, with two rows of cabinets on either side of the wall, and the cabinets are divided into one hundred and sixty separate cabinets from the floor to the top, and one hundred and sixty convicts living on this floor have one small cabinet for each of them.
