So, I was released from federal custody two weeks ago after serving a few years. In the federal system they let you do your last few months in a halfway house. It's called a re-entry center, where you are allowed to get a job, work everyday and come back here at night. So when I got here they inform us that nobody is being allowed to work during the day bc of covid. No daily passes to go out in public and open a bank account, go-to the doctor or dentist, get your driver's license reinstated etc. They say this is for safety from covid. But staff is still coming and going. And transfers from prison are still happening. So it doesn't make sense to say we cant go anywhere. Then, because of the nature of my crime I am designated as a public safety factor. They have the power to let me go home on an ankle monitor for home confinement. But they are saying that anyone with a public safety factor won't be eligible for home confinement until the last 30 days. I don't have a sex case or any escape history and the public safety factor thing isn't even in the policy, so I feel like they are doing this to keep us longer bc they get like $97 a day from the feds for everyday we occupy a bed. It's so frustrating bc when covid hit prison, they locked us down and it became a hard way to do time. I finally get out and expect to be able to get on my feet only to deal with more of the same. Lockdown... I have a good job and a place to live at home and a way to get on my feet but due to bullshit red tape, I have to sit around here and do nothing, just like being in prison. I committed a crime and paid my debt, now I expect to be able to live my life. Idk what they expect us to do.. The justice system is so flawed.. I'm disgusted.
