S.O. + RDAP = ?

EDITOR’S NOTE:  Are there any of you out there who have a federal conviction for c.p. possession, AND who have received time off your sentence for completing the RDAP program? I have read only ONE post on Prison Talk Online from someone who states that he has done so.

From the way the RDAP regulation reads, I didn’t think that this was possible. So, will someone who has done this speak up and share your experience? Please leave a response in the Comments section. You do not have to identify yourself in any way.

Remember, the information that you share here will benefit much of the incarcerated S.O. community. So please let us know what you did, and how much time you were able to get off your sentence. Thank you!

  1. Joe, hope you're doing OK. Keep your head up above the snow. I wated to shoot some info to you about RDAP. I just wanted to let you know that you should register ASAP. The sooner you get in line and get interviewed, the sooner you will get in. In the end, I only get 9 months off, instead of the full twelve because of the waiting list. And it get's longer every day. The waiting list goes by outdate, but sometimes it can take awhile to get you tranferred to a facility that has it, although I'm aware that I don't need to explain this to you. I'm going to shoot you some more info privately, but for any other SO's that read this, if your charge is Poss. of CP, excercise your rights. You ARE eligible for time off. I did not have to file for my rights, my road was easy. You may have to, but in Seagoville, TX low, they ARE giving the time off. Not only did I get it, but I saw many others go home early as well. I don't wish anyone good luck anymore, because we make our own.
