    Gotta kill a few people. Then you got to get sent to a slam, where they tell you you’ll never see daylight again. You dig up a doctor, and you pay him 20 menthol Kools to do a surgical shine job on your eyeballs.

    The only real super Max is in Colorado. It’s completely locked down facility. No visitors allowed, video conference links are the only thing they provide for their inmates.I think it’s 23 hour lockdown one hour outside a day in a cage separated from everyone else. The only way to get a ticket to Supermex is to be a terrorist or an organized crime member that is too dangerous to allow regular contactwith other inmates.

    any regular prison, you can go to by committing murder, or assault, something violent and serious.

    Club fed is just a low security federal penitentiary. Some of them look more like college dormitories surrounding central courtyards. A lot of free time lotta classes lots ofservices. You have to do white collar crime typically to get one of those.

      What do you define as a “real” supermax? There are definitely some prisons that label themselves as supermax outside of ADX in Colorado. Pelican Bay comes to mind. That’s where they put people who are criminally insane or violent, and it’s 100% solitary confinement cells. Not sure about the visitation thing though.

        pelican Bay is a state prison. The only full hundred percent super Max prison is Florence Colorado ADX. there’s a dozen other State prisons that offer a super Max cell block. But none are as secure as Florence. Additionally on a federallevel I think it’s only Florence. I’m not sure of any other federal facilities that contain any super Max blocks. additionally, solitary does not equal super max.
