" . . . was sentenced Thursday to 8½ years in prison and six months in jail . . . "

Is there a difference between prison and jail? I don't get it.

She will remain in Mesa County Detention Facility for the first 6 months, and then be transferred to DOC for the remainder of the time. DOC will place her in a prison facility.
