5.0 out of 5 stars
When you get arrested, don't call your momma", February 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Ninety-Nine Days and Get Up: A Post Release (Paperback)
I met Ned Rollo some years ago, when I was in jail awaiting sentencing for a robbery charge.
He had a lot of good advice for me, especially when he told me in an ice-cold reality voice that I may as well get my head around the fact I WAS going to prison, and start working on the idea that one day I would be getting OUT, and would have to deal with THAT, too.
When I was released some years later, I worked with Ned on the second volume of this book, and it contains a multitude of information designed to help not only the offender, but also their families and those that love them, and go through the incarceration with the offender, from the outside looking in.
I believe that if every family with a loved one in jail or prison had a copy of this book in their hands, maybe they would learn to deal with the realities of incarceration, instead of live from one hope to another.
This book defines the release process, and what you will face during, and after.

Helpful info for those in prison and those who love them, June 24, 2001
This review is from: Ninety-Nine Days and Get Up: A Post Release (Paperback)
Although this book is dated it still has some very valuable tips for individuals who are getting out of prison and their loved ones.
For family members: Gain insight into prison life as well as explore your own feelings and then send it to your loved one in prison
A worthwhile investment for a few dollars! I would also suggest that you check out other books by Ned Rollo!
