Larry, this is so messed up that you had to suffer through that hell where the goal of the prisons was to dehumanize and torture people. Glad you're here to call out Infographics, because the way their video is talking practically writes the press releases for the prisons to justify the crap they do to dehumanize. I mean a prison can ban just about anything because 'it could be made into a weapon' which applies to literally everything that isn't nailed to the floor and just further justifies otherwise inhumane treatment of human beings. What I find even more twisted is everything the prison takes away is automatically justified by the 'makeshift weapon' argument, giving the prison a free pass to deny toilet paper, food, water, books, interactions with other human beings. At this point, prisons could begin amputating and sterilizing all prisoners across the board and people would write it off as justified because fists are the built in weapon all humans have, and the sterilization would somehow be ok to 'prevent women periods and to prevent men from jacking off'. As a society, we're sick in the head, so please keep making videos, you're probably one of the few people arguing against the automatic 'justified because dangerous criminal' excuse enabling this dehumanizing tortures of our corrupt damnation system.

My celly made a pretty badass chess set in county jail out of soap. We would keep it set up on the table for some decoration. Most COs either complemented on how cool it was and/or would tell us to put it away because it was technically contraband. I’ve never gotten as mad in county as I did the day this big butch hog of a woman CO came in with a trash bag and just started toshing it in the trash. She also came in after breakfast when I get my best sleep in county and woke me up so to watch her throw our prized possession away. All I could do was cuss at her and bang on the door which got me locked down for the rest of the day.

As far as infographics is concerned, well, they're sources were also former inmates, so let's just say everyone has a different story. If you've watched prison documentaries, then you've seen tvs in cells, so again, everyone's experience is different. I respect Larry absolutely. But even he would admit he hasn't been in every prison in America.

Current county jail guard, in the topic of sleep masks many inmates took to using covid masks for that role (and since my facility no longer requires anybody to wear them that's now their primary use even). That or the towel trick you mentioned. In terms of staples and stuff, if I find them I take them but generally there won't be restriction regarding stuff that little. Most contraband we find on shakedowns are tattoo guns or maybe hooch. Booking is where you find the fun stuff between used heroine needles, saved piss "suitcased" or taped to the gooch that they try to use on the intake drug test, drugs, knives (though given it's a county jail quite a few get booked with shit like pocket knives that are just put in with their property and given back upon release). Craziest thing I found was this week with a dude that had a half-complete single-shot .22LR makeshift firearm made out of a shop compressor air gun that could chamber a single .22LR round, told me he was still trying to find a way to make a firing pin before he got arrested.

I got this one Larry, kick back and handle something important. They have what's called pill line in all the prisons I been in. That is where there always a huge ass line where inmates go get their prescribed drugs, insulin, where they will usually hand a diabetic a syringe to let him poke himself if he wants. Pill line is ran I believe about 4 times in a 24 hour period and if you missed it and it's a big enough emergency they will do what's needed to make it happen. I went to pill line maybe 25:times in 20 years. I wasn't into it. A lot of guys are trying to get what ever they can, siriquil, or anything that'll make em do the thorezine shuffle. I would hate when they called pill line during a sporting event, like when I played softball. Pill line isn't fast. It can last 2 hours. It would suck when 11 players out of 18 would take off for pill line. Everything in prison is a fucking inconvenience.

In the pen in canada you can have a pen box sent in with a 24" tv , game cube 16 games or ps1 with 16 games. You also can have a stereo with 20 cds and a walkman which is a portable cd player for you younger views. This is in a maximum security institution . People are sent out in bags every few weeks at least. Atlantic institution if you want to look it up. You can also have your girl send in "erotic" pictures as long as you can see her face so its clear she isnt a minor. USA is much more strict with prisoners way longer sentences aswell. Now they even have tablets on the range that you can use for a fee of course you can do video calls with pre approved contacts, instant message and receive pictures. Bibles are no long passed out as the bible is free to access on the tablet just a loop hole. Big thing now is taking the metal strip out of the covid mask they take the place of paper clips and staples to use with battery's for a lighter and many other things.

Ear plugs were the best item I've had in the correctional facility I was in. Why? Dumbass inmates in my pod would play poker or just beat the metal tables we had all day all night. So annoying. First time in jail, last time in. Terrified me. The last week before getting out, inmates abs guards would do everything they csn to violates my release. I was in PC in California and the wanna be gangsters Northern Ridas would start shit. I've seen so much in the year in jail. I hated my experience. It's been 7 years and I'm not explaining what I've been through. Bad experience. Now I got a family and my own business.

But would like to hear your take on that imate. That escaped in centerville (i think) in texas. That escaped a bus. Got out of hands feet belly chain. And got threw the cage to the driver. And stabed him. Still loose.

None of this shiznit is true... It's so funny ... Look, I've only been to state prison (late 90's & early 00's) and here in Illinois in that era you could buy all this stuff off commissary - even shiznit that makes no sense at all that is banned in other joints.... Also, the whole book thing blows my mind because you could get any book you wanted - not only that - but cassette tapes too (it was the 90's so we had tape players, lol) however they did have a "selection service" but if the book or tape you wanted wasn't on the "selection service" then someone on the outside could just send it in.... And the reset of the stuff is just silly - like chewing gum. Sure it's true that chewing gum is banned at some joints - but gum isn't banned in all of them.....Infographics does NOT know what the hell they're talking about..... I'm shocked they didn't say "dental floss" because you know - prisoners may cut through the bars that rarely exist, haha...smh

I do love the content Larry. I gave up on watchmojo and infographics a long time ago because they are almost never accurate about anything. I spent a year in provincial jail in Canada. I don't know if people understand how totally removed that is from American Federal prison. Even in Canadian provincial hotels most of what they said is not true and especially not for the reasons they say.

I have an ironic prison story. Many years ago i had a short spell in the pokey. On the third day an officer shouted 'movie'. Some of us went to the lower floor and they wheeled out a big tv and put a video on. The video was 'escape from new york'. I thought 'ok thats funny' but the irony is it was a copied video that said at the start 'it is a federal offence to copy this video' and the worst thing was id watched it on tv 3 days before i got banged up. And yes it is different in some ways in the UK

I expect that those kind of channels get their information from just doing a Google Search and looking for "Items banned from Prison" for example. Then lots of articles and lists would come up. Then they just copy the text and make a video. Lots of people do this for quick video content creation.

Larry, I love your videos! Thanks for making these. I find your videos super interesting, informative, and shocking. I only had 1 cousins go to prison for a few years but I love hearing stories. My favorite one was hearing that they smoked weed in prison rolling a joint out of the Bible pages! He’s going to hell for that one! Haha, but I was shocked they got weed in prison, what happens when people get caught, it must smell. I know you were out by this time but do you know how prisons handled masked during covid? Just wondering, thanks for the amazing content keep them comin’!
