My brother spent some time there. He also spent time in a lot of other prisons throughout Pennsylvania. He's been free and doing pretty good for the last 5 years 👍🏻
My granddad was a sergeant there for 30 years, and always talked about how big it was in there, but I never realized it's basically its own little city behind those big walls.
All I can really see is the ground pretty much thru the whole video. I would've liked to been able to see more off the buildings and other things. Your tour of this prison should of been called a tour of the prison's floors and ground.
Literally those are the only cells I know that you could sit down take a #2 wash your clothes in the sink kick your feet up on the bed and write a letter all at the same tim
It actually reopened in 2006ish and remained opened well into 2015ish and closed permanently in 2017 I had a family member I visited there from 2007 ( was one of the first prisoners since the reopening ) and last visited late 2014 Place was a disaster, should’ve never reopened
Closed in 2004. Reopened June 25th 2007. Was not used as anything other than a prison however they added in 2 programs. Closed in the first few months of 2017. I was there day 1 when it reopened. Population was like 38.
Spent plenty of time visiting a loved one in that building, guards were complete A$$holes . It’s crazy cause you would think because it’s in the city the guards would be less a$$holes but we got better treatment when the moved him to the prisons hours away ( Smithfield , Coal etc ) Glad that time of our lives is over

@@AnkleToeKnee How did you even get in there??
This was really cool to see, but tbh I wish you were keeping your phone up from the ground more!
I appreciate it. I didn’t notice until I uploaded the video. Apologies.

We all know someone who were sent to the Wall some never got out with life sentences.

I heard that visitors were treated like inmates at check-in…sad.
Smithfield and Coal was worse than the wall? What years was this? I know you Cookie's peoples. Keep ya head up! Glad ya'll got that behind you.
