Pre-sentencing
Interview with Jorge
JM: Tell us about the pre-sentencing process:
Jorge: during the pre-sentecing process I was taken in
from the holding tank to this other holding tank
and made to sit there on the hard concrete slab
that they call a bench for about 3 hours. Then
they came and took about 12 of us in front of
the judge where we were all givin the sentence
that the judge and the court paid lawyers had
already agreed to before even meeting us. In
other words we had no part in the decision
making process of our sentence. Then after all
that was done we were taken back to the holding
tank and givin a bologna sandwich and some stale
fritoes for lunch. Made to wait for a couple of
hours more than taken back to our holding tanks.
JM: Did you have police stop by your house for questioning?
Jorge: No I didnt.
JM: What was your court appearance like?
Jorge: It was very imbaressing since I wasnt allowed
to shower or shave or change my closes before
hand.
