Georgia Diagnostic & Classification Prison, Jackson Ga.Thursday, June 23, 2011, 8:16 p.m. We were almost there, I thought.At 8:16 p.m., some 10 minutes after we had stopped at the open gate, the driver’s radio crackled to life. He responded with a “10-4,” and we began rolling again, this time past a basketball court and a volleyball court on our left. After we passed the courts, the driver turned left across the prison yard, and toward a small white building.
