Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht: This is how his day will look behind bars

Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht is in custody and is currently being delivered to Austria. On Monday, the prisoner transport stopped at the JVA Munich-Stadelheim, until Wednesday evening the “ox tour” through the country must end and he has reached his destination, which Innsbruck, have arrived. The period has been ten days since the approval of the actor by the Hamburg court on July 7th.

In the Innsbruck judge, the stay begins with a standardized recording procedure. The personal details are checked, personal items must be submitted. This is followed by a physical search and a psychological assessment. This is intended to help recognize acute self -threats at an early stage and to act accordingly. Especially in the first few days after the start of prison, the psychological stress is often particularly high, emphasized head of institution Reinhard Potocnik in an interview with “ORF Tirol”.

After a short input phase, the regular daily routine begins. In the JA Innsbruck, the prisoners are awakened at 6 a.m. The cells are opened at 7 a.m. The breakfast consisting of coffee, tea or cocoa and bread is provided.

Much of the morning is intended for work. In the institution there are workshops for carpentry, locksmith, vehicle technology and work areas for cleaning services, library and warehouse management. Around 230 jobs are available for around 500 inmates – too little to employ everyone. There is a fundamental obligation to work, but it cannot be fully implemented in practice.

In addition to work, court hearings, visits to the doctor and the freedom in the courtyard are also part of the day of detention. In addition to various therapy groups as well as religious groups, sports and music groups are also available for the employment of the detainees. You can also go for a walk in the courtyard or read in the library. Creative activities such as handicraft and cooking groups can also be visited.

The cells are closed again at 3 p.m. After that, only activities such as television, reading or conversations with cellmates are possible. At this point, sport is only planned under supervision. The dinner is taken in the cell between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. And after that, the night’s sleep begins.

The accommodation takes place in individual or multi-person cells with up to five occupants per room. Only a few cells have their own sanitary facilities. Community showers are the rule. The division is based on organizational and safety -relevant criteria – not according to punishment or prominence.

Visits are possible from the first day. Investigative prisoners such as Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht can usually be visited twice a week, for a period of about 15 minutes each. Penal prisoners are entitled to half an hour of visitors a week, whereby a maximum of three people may be received at the same time. If the visitors travel for a long time, the visit time can be extended at the discretion. Ochsenknecht’s closest family lives in Berlin, his mother Natascha and brother Wilson, his sister Cheyenne and brother -in -law Nino live by car for over five hours, in Dobl southwest of Graz.
