Oakland County Jail

Leisure time is really quite relative ina jail. Technically, all your time is leisure to some extent. As far as going outside goes, it depends on what type of cell, or housing you're placed in. "R" and 10 mans get no outside time, annex get common area access, but I couldn't comment on whether there is an outdoors. Trusty's, I believe do have limited outdoor access. What people don't understand, or fail to undertand about this county jail is that it's not a joke, it's not some minimum security outfit where you'll never know your locked up. This is serious, and you should go into it with that expectation. Just becuase you're a non-violent offender with one misdemeanor doesn't mean you won't spend time in a cell for a week or even months, not seeing daylight with the same 10 people under 24 hour lockdown. You should mentally prepare yourself for some pretty inhuman conditions, some pretty wretched food, and in the worst case, some pretty nasty people. Honestly, the best situation in any case, is to find yourself around people who respect one another, otherwise, think you'll be in a concrete tank with 12-30 other people for your stay, and anything above and beyond is a bonus.
