Prison vs. Jail - What's the Difference?
Many people confuse state prisons with county jails. Here's the key distinction:
- County Jails hold individuals awaiting trial or serving short sentences (typically under 1 year). Bail is available at county jails.
- State Prisons like Liberty Correctional Institution house inmates who have been convicted and sentenced to longer terms. Bail is NOT available.
