SPOKANE, Wash. - On Tuesday we reported on a property on W. 9th Ave. in the lower South Hill that had been condemned by the fire marshal and the tenants were vacated. The property owner is Arlin Jordin who is currently serving a rape sentence in the Washington State Penitentiary.

We began to investigate whether an offender is able to run a business from prison.

According to the State Attorney General's Office the state generally does not prohibit inmates from owning property or having business interests outside of prison, provided those activities do not violate their judgment and sentence or Department of Corrections Policy.

The DOC policy states that inmates are prohibited from entering into any contract while in confinement. In the case of Arlin Jordin, he entered prison in his previously established role as a landlord. The DOC responded to his case saying that "because of the way he has done business, he does not appear to have violated any policies. However prison personnel is aware of the concern and he is being closely monitored."

    Hmmm, interesting theme that I've never thought about. I belive that it is hard for them because of many restrictions, because when you have your own business you should solve many different ptobloms like accounting, management and so on. As for me, it can be nice if in prison there will be a casino machines where the prisoners can rise money to go away from prison for pledge. For example, lucky dragon slot will be nice for them.

    Most of my friends were planning to work in the online business industry. So, at first they were told to develop Sales Funnel Strategies because these are the most needed ones. Therefore, everyone must try to develop ideas and strategies at the same time.

    What a nice way to open a business but I have a question should i purchase a business or open a one. The first choice will need investment but will give instant results and the second one will take time but will need less investment.
