DownTime: A Guide to Federal Incarceration
This 254 page 9th edition of DownTime was completely rewritten in July of 2007 and reflects the latest changes in Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) policy and procedure. DownTime is written with three distinct audiences in mind: Professionals in the legal community who provide support and guidance to defendants, individuals facing federal incarceration and the family members who support them. DownTime will inform, educate and illustrate the challenges faced by men and women during incarceration in a Federal Bureau of Prisons' facility. Nobody is prepared for incarceration. No matter what people say there is nothing comfortable about spending time in prison. Unfortunately more and more men and women are facing this challenge. DownTime is a guide. DownTime will help readers to overcome their lack of knowledge about incarceration. The information in DownTime is designed to provide members of the legal community with an excellent source of reference. When properly used this information will allow these professionals to assist their clients through this difficult time. Legal professionals will be provided insight into a facet of the system that, until this time, they had not been exposed to. DownTime also serves as an excellent reference for inmate's families. Although the primary focus of DownTime is on the inmate, several sections have been included specifically for inmate's family members. The family members of inmates certainly face their own frustrations. Getting processed for visits, communicating family emergencies and dealing with other support issues are all discussed in DownTime. Nothing can completely alleviate the fear faced by men and women exposed to incarceration. Their only weapons are accurate information, and insight into what they are facing. DownTime helps. The information found in DownTime will assist inmates and their families through this difficult time. DownTime is organized into eight chapters and three appendices. The sections within each chapter cover specific topics in detail. Each chapter, and the sections they contain, may be read individually. The last section of each chapter is dedicated to frequently asked questions about the material contained in that chapter. DownTime is, for the most part, organized along chronological lines. Chapter One provides background information about the Bureau of Prisons. Chapters two through six deal with specific periods leading up to and including initial incarceration. Chapter seven deals with some specific areas of interest and Chapter eight addresses the period beginning with release from prison through the initiation of supervised release. Readers will find that the appendices of DownTime are an integral part of the book. They contain a wealth of useful information..
