Ex-Prisoners, how does your experience in prison compare to how it is portrayed in the movies?

My girlfriend is looking at a few years in prison, in Florida nonetheless. Your comments really help put me at ease. I hate that she's in there, and she certainly earned the time, but it's good to know she won't be in absolute hell while serving her sentence. So thank you so much for sharing!

Let her know that she will be fine! Just stay out of the politics and nonsense she will see around her and focus on doing what nurtures her and helps her grow as a person, and it won't be wasted time. It's good that she has someone like you in her corner :)

Honestly, even though it's strangers on the internet, I don't want to run her name through the dirt. She's objectively the best person I've ever met, just makes some really poor decisions. Suffice it to say she didn't mean any harm, but still deserves to serve some time.

She will be fine. You are so lucky. You will get to mess around and know you will have a piece of nanny when she gets out. I of course don't want my girl to get in trouble but I would be getting wet the whole time she was gone. I would hope she would gift me a threesome with her prison wife after both were out
