Sentencing

Interview with Cesar, Tom, Bruce and Jon

JM: How long was your sentencing for?
Cesar: I was given 60 days with 1 year probation.
Tom: I WAS FOUND GUILTY OF MISSING MY COURT DATE AS A MATERIAL WITNESS I WHICH I WAS ASSAULTED 10/18/2005 WHEN I TRIED TO HELP A GIRL WHO LOST HER BALANCE WHILE DANCING ON TOP OF AN SUV. I RECEIVED 26 WEEKS FOR THAT CHARGE AND DID NOT GO TO GEIGOR DURING THAT TIME.
Bruce: they wanted to give me 9 months in county jail,but i had them make it a year and a day before i would sign the plea agreement. so i received an exceptional sentence of one year and one day
Jon: I got sentenced on my robbery 2 charge for 3 months and 60 days for my theft 2.

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?
Cesar: Yes I did. I must say for a jail, it was what it was. Did I have any concerns? Not really. It was jail. I was placed in a two man cell. I mean what do you ask for in jail? If I had to make some adjustments. The pads that you sleep on are very thin and well worn, might of well slept on the concrete bare. Again what do we expect, its jail.
Tom: I SPENT A SMALL TIME IN A HOLDING CELL WHILE WAITING TO GO BACK TO 3WEST, IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN IN A SUBMARINE ITS VERY MUCH LIKE THAT.
Bruce: there is a couple of holding cells. right by the video court rooms there is 4 small cells and down the hall and around the corner there is a larger one. the larger one is where you go when they bring a group from the jail who have court that day, usually 10 to 25 or 30 inmates are put in this cell then a few at a time are taken to court, when you are done they bring you back and you wait till everyone is done then everyone goes back together at one time. so i was only in the holding cell for an hour or so then back to my cell on the fifth floor
Jon: The room was a room with metal benches, some toilets and they always seemed to have more than max capacity of people in the rooms. They also placed rival gang members in the same room so there was tension between certain people.
