∙ 13y agoThe terms "jail" and "prison" are often used interchangeably, but they mean different things.
A jail is a local detention facility (usually operated by a county sheriff's department) where persons convicted of misdemeanor and other minor criminal offenses are sentenced to be held for a period NOT TO EXCEED one year.
A prison is a state operated penal institution where persons convicted of felonies serve their sentences which exceed a year or more in length.
Therefore, ANY felony crime carries a sentence which can be served in STATE PRISON.
