Tonya: yes then sent to population
Jay: Yes I sat in the holding cell a few hours while they processed me through the system I would say that was the hardest part cause my mind couldn't cope with what was happening other words I wasn't mentally prepared to serve those three years at that time
Fred: Yes I was put in a holding after being sentenced. It was full of other inmates who had just came back from court and there was inmates in there waiting to go to court.
Alice: because jefferson county filed bankruptcy, they couldnt afford the proper care for their inmates, so there were sometimes 4 to a cell in a two man cell which the other two sometimes had no mat nor could they afford to give the imnmates toilet paper or wash rags or the proper blankets. it was TERRIBLE
Patrick: dirty cold noise, it was jammed packed with people, people on the floor not enough room and they have no reason to keep people like that in that type of situation.
