Review for Oklahoma Halfway House, Oklahoma City, OK, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

Oklahoma Halfway House is a for profit, community Medium Prison, that violates Federal and State law, with a sole purpose of grifting off Federal, State, charity, and Inmate's income to keep up the lifestyle and car collection of it's Director.
I have never seen so many drugs dealt there in my entire life (most brought in by the staff to sell to inmates).
With two incentives to violate and send as many inmates back to prison (a $35k bonus for violating inmates and a kickback from Grady County Corrections Center) it is hard to survive this train wreak of a Halfway House.
There is no incentive to get people back on their feet. Employers avoid hiring from the OHH as they are harassed as badly as the inmates of the OHH.
Constant no notice lockdowns and compound restrictions hamper visitation from relatives who often drive hours or fly in from out of state to visit their love ones.
Little funding is seen onsite.
Mandates from Eric Holder to allow RESIDENTS of Halfway Houses cellphones, transportation to and from work, and mental health counciling ignored by the Director.
No onsite job search facilities. No computers available to inmates to look for jobs. No library. No law library. No denomination religious meals available. All technology is forbidden and feared by the Director.
Eating out of dumpsters would be better than the food provided there.
Disrespectful staff that get off flogging the inmates (not residents) for little or no reason (entertainment?).
If you have a love one on the inside, it is better to avoid this FRAUD of a Halfway House. Do your time and go home. Defund this abortion.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Send in investigators and shut the place down for good. Place charges on the Director Dunkel and his wife/sister/cousin Sub-Director Shelia.
