Rio Cosumnes Correctional Center

Turning myself in Jan. 10, for 4 days, Curious what the women's side is like and if what I heard about it being freezing is true? What is it like on the ladies side of it? more

I am very nervous about my turn in date to RCCC. I have been in trouble before and spent some time here and there at sac county jail and placer county jail. I have never been to RCCC. I got my first DUI and have to turn myself in for 30 days. Can anyone tell me anything good about the womens side? I need some hope or something please?\r Is it really bad on women's side? more

To the guy that made the comment below about SCUM. I spent time at RCCC and it is a terrible place. The inmates call it the Rio Cosumnes Concentration Camp, and it is just that. The people are locked up in there for various reasons including DUI. I am sure you have made mistakes in your life, and I am pretty sure you would not want anyone to call you scum. It is rude of you to call people you do not know anything about scum. Yes some people deserve to be there but we also should remember that the justice system all over this country is broken, there is no longer such a thing as ""rehabilitation"". It's all a monopoly they need people to continue to mess up so they can continue to make money, the judges, D.A., Lawyers, Police, the Bob Barker Company that makes the clothes, bedding, and shoes, the Aramark company that handles the commissary, even the company that ship in the food ""Chow"". The police play Y.M.C.A over the intercoms laughing to taunt the gays in PC. A man was left in the pod bleeding out of his nose while he waited 30 minutes for the ""24 hour Emergency Medical"" service to come, he had a brain aneurysm. I could go on and on I took notes on the inhuman conditions at the jail. No one no matter what they did deserve to be treated like that, if one day one of your children goes to jail I hope someone is intelligent enough to NOT call him/her scum. more

Ok people. This is JAIL. You become the scum of Sacramento and you go where the scum goes. People complaining about jail? Seriously?? That's a liberal for ya. more

Was assured that all meds would be given to my daughter when she reported to the jail!! She was not given any meds but an inhaler, when she has MS, Demilleting disease,Chronic pain and Migranes!! she came with a list of meds and a letter confirming the mattress needed to be thicker but to my surprise they Lied as usual!!! from friday til monday..... Left messages for the medical nurse on saturday still haven't heard anything back as of yet! Why did they tell that lie if they couldn't accomadate her meds.? they told the courts they would have it ready, especially since they had two weeks to get ready.....\r They are just triffling, especailly when a nurse acts and speaks like she has a degree as a Doctor. Someone should really look into their practices at this jail more

I can believe all is true. I had to drop off my brother and the guard what extremly rude, heave set white guy bald with glasses. first time there, we didnt where to go my brother started to open the door and get out and this jerk (putting it in a nice way), started to be a smart ass! what kind of crap is that! i came real close of saying something to this man! i could tell already that these people allow their position to go to their head! People make mistakes and are entitle to pay their debt to society yeah, you shouldn't have been in the first place. You better bet, I will research and find the name and contact information for everyone to file their complaints with. Because if you don't help stop them, nobody will. Stay tune. more

I spent 102 days out at RCCC some on the honor side and some on the lock down side. its no pinic but its not that bad. espically the honor side they have ice cream and soda sold on wednesdays, you get to work so that keeps you busy, you get outdoor rec 5 days a week. there is even orgainzed baseball ! the lock down side is pretty boring but you get some good books and start reading. You can surive off $20 a week for commisarry. The biggest problem with the food is that you eat dinner at 3pm ! so come 8/9/10 pm your hungary and thats when you need to ""spread"" if you have been to jail you know what a spread is . bottom line you get a good job dont get into fights and you can stay on the honor side and your time will flash by. Pros: Honor Side You Get Access to Outdoor Rec Cons: Too Many Inmates and Dinner too Early more

I was locked up there for about 4 months and the time i spent there was a eye opener. from the bad food to the dirty tight underware. the police treat you like crap and will rough you up for no reason. But the real reason why i am posting this is because i seen someone die in there due to the poor nursing they have. They had gave this guy the wrong medication that had a heart problem. i feel bad for his family that they will never see their loved one again due to the staff the jail have.\r \r I just pray everyone make it out of that hell hole alive!!! Cons: you could die in jail more

family members turned away from visiting because\r they beeped 2 times. Mothers & wives leaving because\r they were refused visitation due to change in their pocket or a bra with metal hooks. You practically have\r to strip down to underwear to get thru. Some traveled\r from a long distance & left crying. So sad, & unjust. Cons: treated like criminals more

my man has been thrown into rccc because he lost his temper, right, he's no angel, he should be punished no doubt. fist-fights are illegal & certainly not politically correct .... cough cough ..... now RCCC is his current residence. .... yeah, he's human. he erred but please don't ya think he might deserve some clean undies, toothpaste, shampoo, coffee or at least a snack .... instead the inmates are not given such basic services and i must order & pay iCare-Packages Company an exorbitant amount of money for gift packages they deliver to the prisoners. .... i'm not trying to reward my man but i truly think it's imperative to make sure he's got something decent to wake up to in the morning, a reason to smile or at least to live like a clean human being. Even our pets are treated more kindly than a prisoner . Most people incarcerated are in there for very foolish reasons .... anyone causing serious harm is totally another matter.\r If you like or love someone who's being locked-up, hopefully they are being cared for .... punishment for one minute of madness multiplies to huge amounts of sadness for those who are waiting at home . more

Dirty Undergarments, Unhealthy Food, Medication not given on time \r (this is a promise if items are not corrected i will go to the \r Dept of Health and Saftey, NAACP, and Channel 10)\r I mean Business and Serious \r I have been talking w/a friend that in now incarcerated by Rio Consumes Facility and mentioned problems were dicuss. Laundry is not clean and given to inmates dirty and not washed. Food is not healthy. this facility is not clean,fifthy. My suggestion to you is this situation is not cleared up I will report you to the Department Health and Saftey. Also calls that are connected through MCI (Globetelink) is disturbing also. The phones inside this prison is corrupt for dropped calls when talking to someone. Please correct all of thes issues.\r ( unclean underwear garments/MCI thru Globeltelink, medication intake and especially unhealthy Food. \r ,\r .I will not tolerate a love one that is treated this way. Inmates are human beings and even though they did do the crime, there is no reason why a person has to live day to day wearing dirty under-garments-\r clothes,bad food and medication not distrubuted correctly.\r example: meds were given to a inmate that swelled his feet/several inmates say this.\r Thank you for listening/ Green Eyes/Quality Care for all human beings\r more
