No matter what prison system your brother is in...he can ask to be placed in protective custody. During protective custody your brother will be placed in a single room cell, no other person is allowed to live in that cell with him. The only downfall of protective custody is that the person is on lockdown generally for 23 hours a day. They come out of the cell for only 1 hour a day. \n\nYour brother's roommate is probably playing what inmates call the sex game with your brother....with this other inmates touch on the new guys to see what their reaction will be....generally if the new guy does not react negatively to being touched...that person ends up becoming a girl instead of a man...he will give up his manhood or be raped.... \n\nYour family can get in touch with your brother's counselor at the facility where he is now to speack about the circumstances...if this does not help....someone need to get in touch with the warden or deputy warden of security at the institute.\n\nLet your brother know that if he plans on keeping his manhood...he must fight for it....whatever it takes to come home the man he went in as.....\n\nEven though this is a sad situation, it is life on the inside of the gate...I hope your brother will not be doing a lot of time....\n\nLet your brother know....do not ask any other inmate for anything...the price he has to pay back will be much higher .... your family should send him money orders to cover what expense he need inside to  keep him from asking others for items...\n\nGet luck and do not worry......he has to keep his chin up and be a survivor....

Okay Miss B,\n\nWoman to woman, I am going to be straight with you. The guy that is in prison is going to have an extremely difficult time with employment and other things that require a criminal and credit check. Are you willing to carry him through that? You will more than likely be his sole provider until he is able to find a job. If the guy you are with now really loves you and is making an effort to treat you well and commit to you, why ruin a good thing to wait on someone who is going to be totally dependent on you? I know it is a tough situation to weigh, but you have to also think about your role in both their lives. Are you going to be willing to sacrifice things for the guy that is in prison? Are you willing to get rid of what seems like a nice guy, to wait for someone who is going to have multiple issues?

If he is violent or has threatened violence then he can be comitted by you.  There he will be examined.\n\nIf there is no violence, then you must convince your brother to seek help.  You mmight do a little research on his symptoms and what disease you think he might have.  Use this infrmation when you talk to him.  Try and be non-threatening.

9 years ago 2 men murdered my younger brother. He had met them through 2 young girls that had come to my brother looking for help. They were hungry and had no money, so my brother gave them some food. The following day he brought them some more food and the 2 men were visiting the 2 girls. As soon as my brother left after meeting the 2 men and giving the 2 girls the food, they started planning my brother's murder. They used the youngest girl to go to my brother's apartment and steal his extra key that they had noticed hanging by his door. She used some excuse to get my brother to let her in and when he wasn't looking she stole his extra key. When they knew my brother would be asleep, they used the key to get into my brother's apartment, stab him 4 times, while he was sleeping, steal his things and left him to die. Fortunately they were caught and we went through 2 years of court sessions and a trial. The D.A. didn't go for the Death Penalty (California) because it is hard to get a conviction when it would end up with a death penalty. They were both sentenced to Life + 1 year. We all thought that would be good, but 7 years later, we still have them trying to use their appeals to get away with murder (one of them admitted at the sentencing that they were the ones that murdered my brother, plus the police found my brother's things in their homes and the one was wearing my brother's football jersey when he was arrested). I resent the fact that they can still see their families, they can still breathe, they can still laugh, and try to get out by using their appeals. Capitol Punishment isn't a deterrent, but neither is prison or any other form of punishment. I don't care whether it is a deterrent or not. They killed my brother! He will never be able to get married, have children, spend time with his family, laugh, love or anything else, because they sentenced him to death. They killed a part of all of my family and left us all as victims of their crime. We can't ever see my brother again, he can't share in our family get togethers and holiday celebrations. I will never hear his voice again or get a hug from him. He won't get to meet my other brother's new baby that is due this coming April. We all lost so much when they sentenced my brother to death. They don't have the right to live as far as I am concerned. I think it is very easy to sit there and say that Capitol Punishment is wrong, and that we don't have the right to play God, but if it were your parent, sibling, spouse, child, grandchild, or even yourself that was brutally murdered,and have to sit through a trial where the crime scene photos are displayed, and seeing your loved one brutally murdered and their life blood everywhere, then maybe you wouldn't feel so holier than thou about the issue of Capitol Punishment. Sorry for writing a book, but this is a subject that hits home for me. =-(

I think you are too young and that is way your brother is proteting you...  Or maybe he knows someting about Frank that you do not know...  Just ask your brother what is the issue  and that's it.

U don't do anything, just keep loving the person. He will need your love and support while in prison. A lot times love ones are forgotten about when they go to prison. Never let anyone tell who to love and not to love. Make your own choices.

Sounds like he may be scared of your brother for whatever reason. Most brothers are protective of their sisters. I know I am. But, you had it worse: your brother was friends with your ex. So, maybe this guy was scared of a double beat down. Or, the other possibility is this: he may not have really liked you but was being polite when he cuddled with you or he freaked when you cuddled and didn't know what to do. Then, at the last minute he realized he made a mistake by leading you on and freaked out, like most idiot guys do. Instead of just talking to you about it, he ran to your brother to tell him nothing happened and in his own juvenile way, he saved himself the agony of having to tell you he lead you on and used your brother as an excuse!!

Clearly she DOESN'T hate your brother, not if she's hanging out with him. Warn her about the jail/prison stuff and let her know why you think he's trying to get close to her. After that, you have no control over the situation. She's going to do whatever she wants.\n\nBe careful though, if your brother finds out you've been warning her away, he's going to be pissed off.\n\nBy the way, do you have something against using a period when you write sentences?

If you are saying what I think your saying I would get away from that dude. It's only been 5 weeks. If he is doing things he shouldn't be doing and you are hanging around him you are going to get in trouble, or get hurt. I knew a girl once who had a boyfriend who was involved in that crap and she is dead now. Just think this way too, that dude is going to be in prison soon so you won't see him anyways. And that's the truth.

First of all, I think you're putting yourself in a dangerous situation. Second of all, I'd let the authorities know.  If he has been convicted before and is engaging in this type of behavior, he'll go right back to jail. If he hasn't been convicted then he needs to be. Either way you need to make the authorities aware of the situation.

Apparently this person has not learned the value of making a responsible decision.  \n\nHe's not going to heed advice because he's still too immature to hear what you are saying.\n\nHe's spoiled rotten and above having to follow the rules of society.  \n\nWhen he lands up in jail leave him there.  Tell him this.  Then try not to spend a lot of time with this person. \n\nWhen you do have conversation and he tells you about his inappropriate behaviors try not to react.  Respond as is appropriate, "Well, my friend, that sounds totally inappropriate."  Say it calmly and respectfully.  Don't react, respond.  And then end the conversation regarding his poor decision making and it's consequences.  He's a drama queen.  Don't feed into it.\n\nYou can't make decisions for him.  His behaviors are irresponsible.  Tell him that and then walk away.

Your brother should run away as fast as possible.  \n\nCraigslist warns about this scam in EVERY SINGLE E-MAIL they forward, and your brother is still asking???

I understand almost exactly what you are going through, except my family knows. He must get help. You can't let it go on any longer, I don't know how long it has been going on..\n\nFor me, it was 17 years, because that's how long I've been alive. My brother is 19 and I have been dealing with this since I was born. He is extremely violent (mostly toward me, since I am much smaller), and my mom has just recently decided that no matter how guilty she feels about it, he needs to go away for help. He was getting so terrifying, she could see everyday I feared for my life. Other than school, and when I am out of the house, I stayed locked in my room.\n\nIt won't get better on it's own. I want you to know that, because so many people think it will pass, it's a phase. No, it won't. He needs professional help. It's nothing to be ashamed about. And you should be very proud of yourself for doing such a beautiful thing and being so wonderful to your brother. But enough is enough, don't risk your safety. I know you love him. But he needs the help, that's what is best. Tell your family (his parents?), seek out treatment, and your family can help you. You don't need to be under so much pressure. You need to enjoy life too!\n\nPlease be safe. I really hope everything works out for you and your brother.\nLet me know if you'd like to talk. :)\n(I know I'm young, but I'd never deny anyone help or someone to talk to!)\n\nP.S. I hope your nose feels better! =/

Stupid mistake?\nI think his parents should go to jail too , fucking bastards\n\nA legal proccess will take much more time, it will take much more sweat and emotional distress but its your responsobility to yourself and to society to put a criminal behind bars\n\nIf he is free he can do it again, to your neighboor or sister or friend.\nApologized for raping you?  ohh yeah sorry about that,my bad\n\nIf you let him go its not only dangerous for society its dangerous for you , if you know of a man that hurt you on purpose and you dont hurt him back , your dooming yourself into a position of a woman who is inferior to men and will fear men for the rest of her life, you need to get your honor back, get your pride back , get your life back\nif you treat yourself like a nobody thats what you will be\n\nHow can you even think of not going through with this?\nYou said he raped you , maybe your using the wrong word\nmaybe he just fuc*ed you?\n\nYoung man with great future my ass , he is a godamn criminal  and he is dangerous. bright future? wtf? he is going to do it again ,and  next time he might even kill her\n\nAnd yeah , if you take the money , thats just what YOU are worth $7000, i think your worth more , \nyour worth around...well....atleast 5 years in prison.
