TAMMS Correctional Center

Hi Pac:

Hopefully you will learn something soon. I am also hoping that someone will be along that knows more about Tamms, and the work camp than I do.

Did you get a  chance to find out if your son had an altercation with anyone at Vienna or perhaps a CO there when he told you he was being moved?

I will be praying for him and the best possible outcome.

Pac:

I just noticed in rereading your post that you said he had no problems at Vienna. Maybe you could call his counselor, the one he had in Vienna, to find out why they moved him.

Today's update call from him was that now he thinks he's being moved back up to Stateville R&C for reclassification since he had a medical discharge from Boot Camp.  He is really frustrated too, but said they told him he will transport to wherever on Wednesday.   

Do they typically transfer people this often? This will be his 4th transfer since August, when he went into the system!

Part of the problem is trying to balance the judge's recommendation with the regulations of the IDOC. Your son evidently didn't fit the boot camp criteria, so now the IDOC has to figure out what to do with him. Hopefully everything gets worked out soon.
