Inmates
Interview with Shawanda Miller
JM: Did you find it difficult to get along with other inmates?
Shawanda Miller: Sometimes. I generally ignored most of them and
pretty much kept to myself. Some would just
like to run there mouths.
JM: What types of things did you have to do to avoid problems or fights with other inmates?
Shawanda Miller: I never got into any fights nor had any problems
with the guards. Again I would just avoid most
inmates who ran there mouths or thought they
knew it all.
JM: Were you able to choose an inmate if you knew one?
Shawanda Miller: When they used to house females in Dakota
County, you would be in 1 block with maybe 1 or
2 people to a cell. Sometimes after you were
there for awhile, some guards would let you move
to a different cell. But at first, no you
weren't able to choose to bunk with.
