In cobb county larger sized clothes are on high demand, so they will ALWAYS try to give u a smaller size than u actually need. So u will spend a lot of time asking/doing whatever u need to get larger size clothes, also you get NO pillow just a pillow case, they expect you to use your clothes as your pillow so be prepared for months w/o a real pillow

I may have to spend sometime in Cobb County, for a DUI, and was wondering if I could bring in any of my own clothes, or a blankets?

YES THE WOMEN WORE DIFFERENT UNDER CLOTHES FROM THE MEN BUT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WE HAD TO WEAR PANTIES OR BOXERS THAT WERE PREVIOULY WORN BY OTHER PEOPLE,WHICH I FOR ONE THINK IS IS NOT HUMAINE BECAUSE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT PEOPLE HAVE.AND MOST OF THE PANTIES THAT WERE GIVING OUT WERE FILTY.I THINK SOMEONE NEEDS TO REPORT THEM FOR SO MANY REASONS.ANYWAY I WILL GO FOR NOW BUT KEEP POSTING THESE COMMENTS AND LET THE WORLD KNOW ABOUT COBB COUNTY JAIL AND THE DIRT THAT GOES ON BEHIND IT'S WALLS.
