Mecklenburg County Jail

Good Behavior

Interview with Mary


JM: Did you get off early based on good behavior?
Mary: No, I did not. I served my entire 3 months. Even though it was crowded most of the time, they still made me do my complete time that was sentenced to me which is okay because I wasn't hoping to get out early. I knew I had 3 months and I was ready to do 3 months.

JM: What is the most time off you can receive for good behavior?
Mary: Honestly I do not know what the most time off you can receive for good behavior is, as I was not presented with the opportunity.

JM: What types of actions do you need to avoid in order to get time off?
Mary: I know you need to avoid fights and to do your work and behaving and not mouth back, and avoid confrontations. Other than that, I do not know what other types of actions you need to avoid in order to get time off.
