Sentencing
Interview with Kyle, Randy, Tyler, Dave and Melissa
JM: How long was your sentencing for?
Kyle: I got 2 years because I had actually run from
the police. (The judge
originally only wanted to give me 1 year)
Randy: WAS FORCED TO PLEAD GUILTY TO ABOVE OR FACE
FELONY THREATS. WAS SENTENCED TO TIME SERVED OF
58 DAYS AND 2 YEARS PROBATION.
Tyler: As of right now no sentance has issued in my
case.
Dave: I RECEIVED TIME SERVED FOR 45 DAYS AND A TWO YEAR
PROBATION
Melissa: No sentence.
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?
Kyle: Yes. All of us who were sentenced would be taken
to the same
holding cell. Some already incarcerated and some
off the streets. It
was crowded and cold. The cells were always
cold. There we would
sit for hours waiting to be classified again. No
food.
Randy: AFTER SENTENCING I WAS IN A HOLDING CELL AND IT
WAS FREEZING IN THERE! IT WAS WITH ALL THE OTHER
INMATES WHO HAD BEEN SENTENCED. IT HAD A TOILET
OPEN IN THE CORNER AND HAD A CONCRETE SLAB AS A
BENCH TO SIT ON AGAINST THE WALLS.
Tyler: I was only in a holding cell prior to be sent to
the county jail which was at least 5 hours I
believe it was to see if I would say something
that could be used against at a further time but
I never did.
Dave: WE WERE IN A HOLDING CELL BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER
SENTENCING. IT WAS A LARGE ROOM THAT WAS
FREEZING, AND IT JUST HAD THE CONCRETE BENCHES
ALONG THE WALL TO SIT ON
Melissa: I was not sentenced. The only holding cell I was in was for intake,
which was relatively clean. Each one had a TV that you could
change the channel and volume of. There were about 6 people in
each cell. We were given "Brown Bag" lunches with the Roll, "Meat",
and Orange, along with a packaged drink. Before you are placed in
the Holding Cell, you are strip searched. But that allows them to
leave the cell doors open and keeps it safer all around.
