Think twice about coming to PRC

This post is for the inmates coming from the Federal system who will be serving their last 10% of their sentence in the halfway house. PRC doesn't want to be called a halfway house even though the Feds call it that when they release you there. The Feds pay $2400. per month per inmate, plus the PRC gouges 20% of the disadvantaged workers wages...dispicable...you would think the feds would know where they are sending you...its a halfway house, but more like a homeless shelter instead. If you have a short halfway house time, 1-3 months you might want to do some research on the Rockville MD Montgomery County Pre Release Center to avoid the most uncomfortable, miserable and outright unreasonable treatment by staff and their policies. Had I known the TRUTH about the PRC I would have NEVER, repeat...NEVER set foot on that property. I was threatened by staff with discipline for complaining about Incompetence, I was threatened by several inmates , others were threatened too...( the staff doesn't care) I reported it and I was told to grin and bear it. Grin and bear it ? A threat..a threat in a Montgomery county government establishment ? That is ridiculous and just one of the ways this place is improperly staffed and operated. A good portion of the staff need to be terminated and replaced by individuals that are conscientious about their job and actually do their assigned job and not people that consistently spin you, lie to you, manipulate, harass, and humiliate you. All in all if you can avoid this place, avoid it ! Federal prison was a far better place to be than PRC. The only benefit is you can have you family visit ( if they don't screw up your visiting list) then throw your family out..oops let me correct that ...rudely, throw your family out. This treatment happens to many families including mine. Another benefit is you have more freedom after the first 2-3 weeks that you will NOT be permitted to set foot out of that place. Don't believe the rumors that you get to go home to get clothes etc. ...nope ... they want to make your life as miserable as they can. After 2-3 weeks you can go out but you need to file a pass request a week in advance and tell the PRC in writing how long it takes you to walk to the metro, and record every minute you will be walking, driving, waiting for a bus..etc. If you get a bastard Pernell...as a counsellor ...oops sorry I told the truth, you will have the worst experience of your life with that incompetent, very unprofessional counsellor. He loves to waste yours and your family's time, he feeds off causing misery, give misleading info, unrealistic statements and expectations. More to come in my next posting, I will expose in detail, names included of the factual incompetence that I and others experienced. I encourage others to post their experiences, remember the squeaky hinge gets the oil...expose incompetence now.
