Johnny did a few "overnights" at some local jails for rowdy behavior, he never did hard
time at Folsom or any other prison. His concerts there and at San Quentin are well
known, though.
Incidentally, Country Icon Merle Haggard was in the audience for one of these
concerts..... he was doing time for car theft.

Johnny is a member of both the Rock and Roll and the Country music Halls of Fame.
