Xbox in prison

[bigguns247]

Those of you who have ever been to prison are aware that you are only allowed to take with you a playstation one or an xbox (original). As they dont want consoles or any devise able to communicate with the outside world (i.e wi-fi, internet access) for obvious reasons i.e plan deals, escapes etc, anyway i was thinking do you think it possible to put the internal bits of a 360 into the case of an original xbox and pass it off? If not how about putting a larger hard drive into an xbox and put all your favourite games, ~~~~ and films? Do they check if its been modded? Btw i was locked up for a fight (defending myself) so please dont prejudge us crims, it could easily happen to you. i.e dont post comments like: the only entertainment we should have in prison is a shower and a bar of soap! Serious answers please! If anyone wants any advise as to what you can take just ask! i.e limit on original cd's /DVD's is 12.

[chroma]

Stuff generaly gets checked. Usualy just the security stickers, if it looks to have been tampered with then they'll explore further.

[dctyper]

is it worth the risk? surely you are planning to break the rules and this will cause more problems. it sounds like you truely want to do your time and go home. let someone else take the risk.

[patkins]

Sorry about your situation. I don`t have anything to offer on your questions but just to say that I hope your time goes in quickly. Best of luck.

[Time2Play]

you don't get your concle for about 5 mounths in to your sentancer and they are checked

I think you should be allowed anything you want incliuding a choice of menu. Afterall every single one of you is innocent so why should you be bored to death eh.

[flyingpig]

Regardless of how you got there, innocent or not, prison is a punishment and should be a punishment. Having your Xbox in a cell with no work, are you taking the Pi$$ out of us 100% law abiding citizens?

I dont believe TV should be allowed.. Reading should be it! What a joke.

[on_the_jazz]

Original xboxes have hard drives in them as stock.

[hairy hatman]

should be issued with susan boyle cd and cd player, nothing else.... if you did the crime you should be prepared to do the time my friend

[bei0759]

it will not be permitted

[chalky 4]

Get your mates to bake you a cake with a file inside it !:sheep:

[Matt20]

I know this is old but just flicking around the site and saw it. Are you really allowed X Box inside?

I am back in court week after next to get sentenced and am so wound up about it - told I probably get a custodial and never been inside before. I don't believe all the crap people say about it but am still shittin' it.

For the lad who was in there - how did you find it? Was it as bad as you thought?

I'm 21 in a couple of weeks so will probably be inside for that - not good. All I wanted to do was join the Army but know I have no chance now.

[h20pt]

It should not be permited

Depends what prison you go to and if you can handle yourself. I found it a walk in the par. The prison was a joke. Yes you are allowed Xbox in the jail but you do have to eran that privilage. Depends on how long your expecting. The prison i was in had a library with a PS2 in which you got to play if you went to the library. 1 hour session twice a week.

I can look after myself OK - go to the gym and play footie. I got done for ABH and Criminal Damage and this was when I was doing community payback for something else. My brief reckons with my record I'll get 12 or 18 months.

From what you say it doesn't seem too bad but I don't know how I'll get on with the other lads there and won't know what to do. Is it easy enough to stay away from any shit that goes on in there or do you just end up getting involved?

I hate being stuck inside and like being outside so that has to be hard. How long do you normally be locked up in your cell for? Even hated the time I've been in the cop shop cells for the night.

My brief said that because I'm 20 I'd go to Young Offenders but will be 21 soon enough. Would they bother sending me to Young Offenders or proper prison straight off?

Hope you have got 'Careless Whisper' on your iPod..
Don't take this the wrong way but prison should be ~~~~in awful.. it should make you think.. "I'm not going back there.."

You should have to shite in a bucket in the corner of your brick room next to your thin foam mattress on the concrete floor, no heating etc.. and for 12 hours a day you should be doing back breaking work like smashing rocks...

xbox.. ~~~~in joke

[lfc4life]

well there is defending yourself and using unreasonable force! You wouldnt be doing jail time if the judge had seen it as you defending yourself?

Not serious, are you? We all make mistakes and **** up. I know I did but that would be like something from the movies you'd see about years ago

[Canker_Canison]

Not knowing where you are in the country this may or may not be relevent.

A friend of mine used to work in Holme House Prison (Teesside). This isn't max security, but it's not an open prison either...they have some nasty people there.
Now this friend is a very hard lad, started training for MMA with a couple of cage fighters. He's not soft.
But even he found it a very opressive & scary place. Some inmates found out about his fighting skills & constantly tried to intimidate him. Nearly evey meal time someone would be there staring at him, saying shit like "away then 'ard man, think ya can 'ave me?! A'll fcuk ya up!!"

He was just the chef in the kitchen. Not everything from the movies is exagerated.

[bigguns247]

Matt20, the first prison I went to, Armley Leeds is Cat B, distribution prison, where you go to straight from court if you live in the West Yorkshire area. Here you are locked in your cell for at least 22 hours a day (if you dont have a prison job, i.e cleaner, kitchens etc). You get 1 hour in the prison yard outside (weather permitting) otherwise that hour is in your cell (23 hours). You get 1 hour association, where you make your phone calls home etc, shower, change bedding, clothing etc associate with other prisoners.

I am a seventeen stone former bodybuilder and people tried quite often to fcuk around with me, I stood up to them but they are cowards and fight in groups and/or with weapons and attack when your most vunrable i.e no staff or when your in the shower. So if you have a beef with one lad, usually he gets back up from around five other of his mates. weapons are usually "home made" shanks (knives), boiling water and sugar in a cup or other vessal to be thrown in your face, coffee jars, tins or other solid objects in a sock are another tool i have witnessed. I was here for a couple of weeks before being graded as suitable for Cat C prison at Lyndholme in Doncaster. Dont let the lower catogary fool you, it was worse here for knob heads, and I couldnt believe that they were all built as they get oral anabolic steroids thrown in over the prison walls in socks. (im not joking). 95% of prisoners I came accross need to perminatly stay there, the othe 5% were good lads wrong place, wrong time senario. I was locked up for Section 20 (G.B.H without intent) when after being a victim of road rage I took the law into my own hands and assaulted the perpitrator. Got one year.

[Matt20]

Reading all that and I'm shittin' it now like. Sounds crazy and pretty rough. I'm in London so probably won't end up in those places.

[cgscott]

Dont worry about it. I was in HMP Saughton. Nothing scary about prisons in my eyes. Although my peater mate (cell mate) did break a guys leg over a game of pool. The guy skipped the line which was written down on a piece of paper so my cell mate took him into our cell and knocked lumps out of him. He was repremanded and transfered to barlinie within 3 days. Never heard from him again. Shame really he was an OK guy. But these are the small incidents that can occur when inside. Its how you handle them that matters.

[Matt20]

I ended up getting 15 months and did 5 and got out this week on tag so have that until the middle of May. Was definitely an experience but not as bad as I thought it would be. Great to be home though.

[patkins]

Just to say- glad you're out Matt. Take it easy. Best regards.

Cool, was this because your a DK member?
Nice to see you have come back to DK rather than buggering off.

[andy91]

I transport lads on tag,half the time they are late or dont turn up yet im taking them to places like Pizza Hut for free Pizzas or Go-Carting. Most young offenders smoke dope and have been done for running drugs or fighting yet these treats they get are meant to act as what they would get if they went on the straight and narrow.
Load of bollox i say,i see the same lads out and about doing the same things learning nothing.
The goverment are soft,no wonder we are millions in debt.

[toolmansteve]

Hi Matt20--- nice to see you out, where did you end up going?? In view of what others have reported about their time inside, how did you find it ???

[Matt20]

Thanks for the welcome back!

I was in Feltham Young Offenders for a few weeks and then got transferred to Pentonville.

I preferred Pentonville because there was less shit going on but also I had probably got used to being inside by then. I went from being one of the oldest in Young Offenders to being one of the youngest.

I found the first few weeks the hardest but after that sort of got used to it. I was just wanting to stay away from trouble, do the time and get out on tag and I did.

At first there was not knowing what was what and who was who but you cop on soon enough. Some lads just want to take the piss and test you a bit but I was alright with that. I always stood up for myself and made a few mates that I hung around with.

I was locked up most of the timein Feltham I didnt have a job and wasnt going to be there long. I found the boredom of being in a cell for 22 hours in a day hard - I would nearly be banging on the door to get let out. You realise how little control you have. You are told when to get up, eat, get time out of your cell, what to wear. You can't just go out for a walk, phone your mates, have a beer or go down to the shop to get something. The first while I was thinking about what my mates and family were up to to while I was banged up but got over that soon enough.

It was better in Pentonville I got a job as a cleaner and that got me out of the cell and a few extra quid to spend. I still missed being out but wasn't thinking about it all the time. I went to the gym a bit and read a bit and got on with the other lads in there. There are enough people in there that you can find a few that are sound. Most of the screws were OK as I wasn't giveing any trouble and you could have a bit of a laugh with them.

It made me realise I was lucky in some ways loads of people in there were ****ed up with drugs, didn't have families and couldn't read or write. If I was like them prison was probably an OK place to be.

I thought it would be really bad going in and was shitting it but it wasnt as bad as I thought. If I had to go back I wouldn't be nearly as worried but I don't plan to. Life is short enough without being locked up and I've promised my family and gf that I will stay out of trouble now.
