Sentencing

Interview with Susan

JM: How long was your sentencing for?
Susan: Fifteen years with ten to serve

JM: Did you spend time in a holding cell after your sentencing? If so, what was that like? If you didn't where did they they take you instead?
Susan: I spent the entire day in the holding cell, as my sentencing was at 9:30 in the am. I cried the entire day. My lawyer had told me there was no way I would get more than 18 months and there was no way the judge would send me to jail before Christmas. I was not expecting to be going to jail. I was locked in this cold damp cage with women who all seemed to know each other. Honestly, I couldn't keep it together.I was practically hyperventalating I was so scared.
