    Bogga road two jail was like going back a 100 yrs,barbaric,old,no privacy, violent,no windows,bird shit,dirt, feathers would blow in when it was windy,rain when there was storms,half the screws were hard nosed poms, the place was short of intelligent ppl, especially the prisoners,one jail wasn't any better,bigger with mire drama,s, most of the time,itd go quiet for a week or two,then someone would start a drama over shit,88 was a hard yr for aboriginal,s and "whites" only ppl that benefited from the drama were the screes doing overtime,some of the screws deliberately started the conflict for the overtime.a lot of dumb stuff went on in those days,still would be in prison, probably worse because of the ice epidemic.
