Background
Michigan State Prison or Jackson State Prison, which opened in 1839, was the first prison in Michigan. It was located, for a period, in Jackson, Michigan. After 150 years, the prison was divided, starting in 1988, into four distinct prisons, located in Blackman Charter Township,: the Parnall Correctional Facility which is a minimum-security prison; the G. Robert Cotton Correctional Facility where prisoners can finish their general education; the Charles Egeler Reception and Guidance Center which is the common point of processing for all male state prisoners sentenced to any Michigan prison; and the Cooper Street Correctional Facilitywhich is the common point for processing of all male state prisoners about to discharge, parole, or enter a community center or the camp program.
