Validated

[Greta]

A term thrown around with no explanation in [Shot Caller]. The word used when a person has been confirmed as being involved in a gang, prison or otherwise. Could lead to more restricted priveleges in the hole, segregation from general pop, and possible time in the [SHU]. Once you have been validated and are out of prison, you get a special condition of your [parole], and that means that you cannot associate with anyone who is a gang member, former gang member, affiliate, associate whether you knew it or not. If you are caught doing so, you get more time.
