I am asking here because all the political subs don’t allow a question, and US politics used to seemed so simple until to understand this man came along.

    What is the difference between jail and prison?

      jail: you are being detained awaiting trial

      prison: you have been sentenced to detainment following a trial

      afaik, anyway.

        You can be sentenced to time in jail, it’s usually for sentences shorter than a year.

        afaik, anyway
