__TOC__
==General Information==
Bolingbroke Penitentiary, a formidable correctional facility, falls under the jurisdiction of both the Department of Corrections and the Department of Justice. Situated on the Los Santos County side of Route 68, in close proximity to Harmony, the prison boasts a distinctive octagonal design. The prison's perimeter is rigorously patrolled by both the Department of Corrections and the Los Santos Police Department, ensuring strict security measures are upheld.
Within the confines of Bolingbroke Penitentiary, a pervasive speaker system permeates the airwaves, often delivering blunt messages and directives to the incarcerated population.
In an effort to foster rehabilitation and incentivize good behavior, prisoners are presented with the opportunity to engage in various tasks during their incarceration. These tasks, which may include cell cleaning, gardening, or material disposal, serve to reduce the inmates' sentences through earned time credits, encouraging compliance and productivity.
Its most famous inmate is arguably Bovice Wilkinson, who has often times been the only man to greet crims as they pass by when they get caught. 
==Areas of Penitentiary==
Bolingbroke Penitentiary can has external and internal features, of which the latter can be divided into roughly three separate areas:

The Central Complex, which has an access road through it, is comprised of multiple buildings and associated features. It is comprised of Buildings 8 and 9, as well as the watch towers for the Northern and Southern Yards. It is also connected to the catwalks which connect the roof areas of all of the prison.

=== Towers ===
There are 10 towers at the Penitentiary, all of which can accommodate members of the Department of Corrections. They are rarely manned, and only used when there are threats to the prison. Entry is through a winding staircase, and a road around the outskirts of the prison between the two fences connects all towers.
==Previous Escapees:==
Prison escapes are currently extremely rare. They happen on special occasions and are currently only admin approved (if already a prisoner). Most "escape" attempts are attacks on prison transports instead of full on break outs.
