When is a new prisoner put with other inmates in prison?
By the time you get to prison you have most likely been through a county detention or jail system and have already been with other inmates.
When you get to prison your first stop will be a reception center, they are usually very crowded and you will be with other inmates immediately.
Good answer! Just to add to this, generally for the first week or two at the reception centre, a prisoner will spend most of his time in his/her cell, only interacting with his/her cellie, and prison employees/officials.
Once the prisoner answers a series of questions related to marital status, military service, education, employment history etc, the level that they will serve time at (in California levels I & II are minimum, III is medium & IV is maximum). Assuming all goes well they may well stay at that level, or in the case of very good behavior may be downgraded or have a reduction in the length of their sentence. Disciplinary violations (possessing contraband, minor assaults and the like)/additional criminal charges accumulated while in the prison system (for more serious things like murder /attempted murder of an inmate, damaging prison property) will have the effect of adding points to an inmates file, (ie write ups) and possibly moving him/her up a level or spending time in the SHU (secure housing unit) Short < 1 year SHU terms may be spent at the same facility, while longer ones > 1 year are generally spent at an actual SHU (ie in California Pelican Bay, Tehachapi )
