My name is Peter Bellar and I have worked to CCI for almost eight years. I am currently serving a life sentence and am presently working as a team trainer in the welding shop at Fremont Correctional Facility. In prison there are only so many ways to spend your time productively and having a good job is one of the best. Correctional Industries has given me the chance to learn a trade that has real world applications. I expect to overturn my case and once I am released I will be able to write my own ticket. I love this job because it gives me self sufficiency and I can support myself while incarcerated. Also, it helps to keep me out of trouble. But, best of all it gets me out of the cell house. When I am at work it truly feels like I'm not in prison.
