Thank you for responding I appreciate it. I drove down there yesterday, spoke to the warden and another CO. After about 25 minutes of sitting in a room alone the Shutterfly books magically appeared. They could not locate the card he received on 9/25 that had 12 photos in it. But I know it’s there, theuvdelivered to him on 10/1 a second card that was also received on 9/25. I always weigh and print postage for s*** like that and have the tracking numbers. Certainly don’t want my half buddy floating around lol. The books aren’t even against the technical policy, there’s no nudity. But they said they’re too suggestive.... whatever. At least I got them back. Thanks again! Only 85 more days of this s*** then he’s HOME SWEET HOME

The heat was just turned on at Shawnee this past week.  I imagine it's coming soon if not already on! 

Hi all! So two issues I’m asking about. I sent my LO a Shutterfly book and 8 photos deemed unauthorized for nudity (they weren’t even naked, all my parts were covered). So he had to provide a Manila envelope and a voucher to pay to return the s*** to me. He signed the forms. Yesterday I receive the big envelope (they cost $1.21 stamped) and nothing was in it except the 3 forms. There were clearly staples removed so I’m wondering why they didn’t give them back. Second issue-I went him some other sexy pics a few weeks ago and he got *most* of them but the COs have been kinda razzing him about me and stuff and he thinks they kept some of my pictures cuz some are missing. I’m going to visit him Tuesday, should I bring the big empty envelope and ask to speak to the warden? This is concerning to me, I know I chose to send sexy pics but what the heck.... idw to just call. Is bothering the warden too extreme? Any suggestions? I also don’t wanna cause issues for him, he doesn’t care cuz he’s angry, but I’d like to know where my s*** is and in who’s hands you know. TIA :)

Hi Sissy12 and all.  I am also looking for any updated info regarding the Peoria ATC.  It looks like the last time any info was posted was several years ago.  My son is supposed to be transferring here from Shawnee as soon as they have an opening, and was just wondering if anyone on here has a lo there currently and may have some tips/sugestions/general information?

Thanks!

I am wondering, does anyone has experience having a loved one who is a lifer and is getting or has gotten for college at a medium facility? And at which facility is that able? Or can't lifers never get for college?
