I am a prison pastor. I regularly preach to convicted felons. I have never had a problem with any of them. The first rule is not to be afraid of them---an inmate can sense fear in a heart beat. Second, do not establish a serious relationship with any of them. remember, these people have been through the system----what you are seeing is the cleaned up and polished version of what the police took off the streets. They have been broken down to the point that they are docile, but they can turn at any time. Prison is a rough place. Fights and killings are common. You cram 250 men or women in a dormitory living space that should accommodate no more than 50 people on the outside, add to that that there is no privacy or freedom of movement, and you have everything right for a riot. Inmates are smart and can be very deceptive and persuasive. Be careful in establishing any kind of relationship with any of them. DO NOT FALL IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Over 75% of the people (men and women) in prison are there for one stupid act. They get out and attemt to live lives as constuctive, contributing citizens. The trouble comes when the morrons (like so many of the answers above) feel morally superior (must be Demorats) and do not let a person prove themselves.

Everybody deserves to be with someone who can be there for them all the time, is reliable, can provide security, and is fun to be with. Prisoners, while they may be fun to be with, are none of the other things. I never understood what's the point of being in a relationship with someone you never get to see. Besides, when they get out they'll only have like 200.00 to their name, no house, car, their family has probably given up on them, and guess who gets to support them while they get back on their feet (if they get back on their feet, they might just suck off of you until they either go back to prison or you get sick and kick them out). I can't imagine how this could turn out good.
There are so many people in this world, so many people who can offer you so many things. Don't waste your time on useless people.

Most prisoners aren't murderers, child molesters, etc.
A surprising amount are ordinary people who's biggest crime has been standing against the government's stance on something, rather than being morally corrupt.
On the first day of law class, they teach there are things that are legal and moral, legal and immoral, illegal and moral, and illegal and immoral. If your man is there for something illegal that does not violate your moral code, by all means support him.

I say it depends on the crime, and if they're going to be released in the near future. I wouldn't be with someone who was incarcerated before I met them (that would just be weird), but if my current partner got locked up then I would remain loyal to him (depending on the nature of the offense).
I don't have a problem being with someone that was locked-up (again, depending on the nature of the offense). People make mistakes, and once they've served their sentence who the hell am I to judge them?
What I don't understand are the women that actively seek to date prisoners....that's beyond me!

The outside world is full of rotten guys. They do not understand the pain of prisioners. Look, those who are out does not mean they are good infact many good and innocent are inside for no fault. O.K there may be convicts to but someone from outside should work with them and see the depth of pain and try to help them lead a good life.

My advice would be not to get involved in relationships with inmates, they will use you to their advantage and try to get you to do things you know you should not. Life behind bars is one of manipulation for self-gain and relationships with people on the outside are a way for them to exert power and control over others. As long as you do what they want you to do everything will go just fine, but the minute you refuse to cooperate with their demands things will get ugly. Be wise, don't get caught up in something that has no future for you, it will only lead to problems.

What a terrible idea. Would you want to live next to a murderer or child molester? People of sound minds say no to that question. Please don't put yourself in this kind of danger, it is very self destructive and totally delusional to believe a prisoner could contribute to anything but misery. Join a social club, go to the church of your choice,if you want to meet people of quality, you don't look in a sewer to find a Pearl.

If you are outside--leave them inside.
Bad luck.
If you can't find anyone that can stay out of trouble-why go looking for trouble.
You know why jailbirds are called CONS?
Not just convicted but ill CON-witch you.

Use common sense.
Hustlers.
99.9% of them.
Ask Law enforcement or correctional officers.
