Going To Jail Again

Post Reply New Topic

I guess that I will report to the San Jose ( Santa Clara County ) police , to be (presumably) incarcerated for the warrants against me in San Francisco (County) to-day .
This is for the same " being homeless " camping/sleeping tickets , and not shown-up-for hearings , since I don't have the money leading to eventual warrants against be for Failure To Appear , and things following from there , that earlier happened to me in Santa Cruz ( County ) but these are FTA offenses dating back as far as the Bush administration , the SF people apparently turned them into criminal warrants in the recent past ( With no paper notification of the reaching me that I know about and I forwarded my USPS mail when I left San Francisco ~ which I " moved from " about twenty months ago , and have not been in at all for over six months . ) .
I detailed my Santa Cruz jail time resulting from the SC FTAs in my " Amputate " line but I figured I'd start this new one . I suppose I won't be around to see whatever gets posted on it ! !! !! !! !! I already know that in jail here there is ABSOLUTELY NO contact with computers for inmates , let alone the Internet , I think it might be be California state rule...You can writea letter for USPS - if you can get paper , etc. , only hand-printed/-written - However , when I was in before only one new person wrote me .
I do plan to comment about how people may contact me , I plan to have someone I trust looking over my main E-mail while I am inside , later...

Good luck anyway, hope it all works out OK for you. I guess jail is better than being homeless? Though that probably depends on the jail? Endeavour to keep us informed of how you are doing.

well look on the bright side they will be forced to give you free dental and healthcare

...If someone does want to write me , please contact auntblabby , who is bneing my freind and handling for me , or if you want to send acceptable gifts or visit , even less likely I know (I guess WP doesn't like direct addresses being given on-screen , so PM aunt and he'll PM you .) , you could get the information through PM'ing auntblabby .
Presuming that I am kept , and not let go there or after a long weekend , (and , I suppose that they , if they're going to all this trouble , aren't going to reverse themselves on it likely - what do you think ?????????) I suppose the way to write, etc. , me would be at the presumed jail in San Francisco , though maybe I'd be in San Jose longer after all?? - And , it has occurred ti me that , perhaps , Santa Cruz might decide that my being arrested violates my probation there and arrest me again ! ...
A Greater Bay Area " progressive penology " camping trip for ME then
Or anything else that may happen . You'd find out my real name upon PM'ing aunt , and I guess all 3 jails have ,through their respective Sheriff's Web pages , Inmate Locator things , which I guess could let you know whether I am there - Although it occurs to me that maybe that would only list " sentenced " and not " held " , I don';t know ... - and , i fyou do find information on me on such a site so , the specific way to fill out a letter/the rules for it as well as for the even less likely visiting , gifts.........

...Not absolutely sure about that . Especially the dental .

Good luck, wish you the best...

I do not know enough about the legal system to give you any useful advice, but best of luck to you in your situation.

...Could it be many months til' I am back ?
Three-ish weeks was the longest time before..
Now might SF prosecute , even prosecute in a " nice " way where I am offered a short sentence but strong probation afterward tying me to SF ?
I don't want that . I might well take a longer sentence , of " straight time " , instead to avoid such probation supervision , I just want to show SF my rear end leaving now . . I'm not too sure about California in general ( Although , could I do Santa Cruz minus the stay-away order , I might try , and - MAYBE - I could try SJ now . ) , on the day in early May I ended my threeish weeks I meant to leave CA but I had neither enough money , a plan , or help .

Good luck. I've never been in jail but have been in a psychiatric unit where there was no internet or mobile phones allowed and wasn't allowed out the building for several months so it felt a lot like being in prison! I liked the routine side of it though although i hated the total lack of privacy and being around the same people all the time. Hope it goes OK.

...Partly , anyway , doing this is " doing the ' sensible ' thing "/" what your mother would tell you to do " thing - A developmental-disabilities agency here in SJ whom I called (being a noobie to ALL SS agencies here) said " We could work with you once you've got the warrants cleared up " .

...Bubbles , where was that ???
Why were you there ???
Could you have any personal posessions to speak of ???
Totally inside ?
Myself , I was in the same " cellblock " , counting being just outside the front door for meds/etc. , which had the main room , and a all-brick/concrete courtyard , with 4 kinds of fencing ovr it , this courtyard was open 14 or so hours a day , I was , basically , in the block as desribed above 23-ish hours every day , because of my generally daily visits to the nurses station maybe 100 yards away toget my medical treatment , I got that much...Most days , everybody was in there all the time ( Afew occasional " special " groups - Though I'm not sure there wee any , actually , beyond a weekly " church " - religion class by 2 elderly Catholic volunteers in the little chapel room - which was nicely cool/breezy .
When we had court dates , chained up , we would go through the back entrance into a van , driving out of the garage then and just 1/2 block down to the cour's garaget seeing whatever green-natural I saw through the window was all the natural I saw for those 3 weeks . Some people did have actual sentences ( How much time they were actually doing , not the " 1/2ed " thing , etcetera , that I think I covered in the earlier line ? ) of over a year though I am not absolutely certain that they were spending all of their time there . Possibly they could hav transfered to other rooms/blocks - Of " desireable " , I uiess , ones there was an upper-level block for trustees/inmate jail employees ( handing out clothes , sweeping up , serving food . ) who had more space/better food .
The other men's jail , known as " The Farm " , in Watsonville apparently offered " teaching you a work ethic " , jobs , and some more space/weights , as it happens ! - But no " organic farm program " anymore as I referred to in the earlier line , they had discontinued that .
The jail themselves told me that I likely could not get the medical care I was getting at the main jail there so I never triwed to get a transfer there .
I onc/twice put in for a transfer to a psychiatric unit , one time could have followed through - It's a good idea that I didn't I think .
" Less desirable " to nomal blocks - a " general population " wing ? Not quiten sure of how/whether our " minor offendors " wing differed .
A " gang members-oriented " one .
As many as two?? female rooms/blocks .
In the West Wing , not the South where we wer , a more " criminal wwing , they wore differently-colored jail clothes .

...There were two levels on our wing which I think may hav e been intended to be " minor offenders " but was strecthed - by overcrowding ? However , I heard a claim that the jail was not so overcrowded , but...And I guess WE were - streched into being General Population by overcrowding ? The door's tag said Minimum/ Moderate Maximum .
I was on the first floor , with 3-person , metal , buns , and , when more came in , mattresses on the floor generally inside little " boats " . 6 bunks 18 cons ??????? Out in the open , no privacy , bar putting a blankie over yourself - or over your bunks access , as a " tent " , which I think was frowned upon if not always forbidden??
The upper level had I guess " harder " offendors , cells with doors generally three?? a cell , I guess not lockd in .
There appeared to be an unspoken " lower floor cons DO NOT walk up to the upper levelule .
In the back of our lower level were some locked-from-the-outside punishment solitary ( or two ??????? ) cells mostly?? for folks brought from other wards , as punishment .
People who " belonged " on the upper evel might , at times , be on out bunk level tekporarily or even the locked cells as crowding made nesseacary I guess !
Really , we did NOTHING , no work and ( that church class aside ) no " classes/therapy " of any kind , believe me . We had a TV , controlled by the guards outside ( Occassionally some con would get in a polie " Could you put ____ on ? " question through the intercom rarely to much avail .
There was a decided " a little of THIS a little of THAT " formula to the TV choices the guards made , much of the time I even when once , while we were booted out of our wing/block one day and were waiting in another , empty , one because ours was being cleaned/refurbished , saw a schedule of what channels were meant to be on ! ( It was in one of the - Empied of them at that moment - girls' wings . There was an odd difference in the girls' TV programming which maybe you'll have to wait some months for me to explain ! !! !! !! !!
Or write me , I told ya how to .
The TV selection was kind of " stanard/noncable channels "-including.........Just one TV...( Another " write me " ! !! !! !! ) .

...I have been rather having " last " things before my projected prison..Last Diet/Zero Cokes last night ( NONE!! !! !! !! ! of that there , there WAS a once-weekly " commissary order , which did not have cola - and I never had money for , anyway . ) , a not-really-needed sugary one to-day...The " last " , lilely , daily newspaper certainly on a regular basis...In my main three weeks there , did the local Santa Cruz paper have a copy make its way there five times ? Three ? They were treausured .
Precious few Pearls Before Swine , I can tell you !

hope the prison staff reckognise the issues have got ASS-P,at least its a place to stay though, just not the safest for vulnerable people.

am surprised have been homeless for so long now,where are the disability and homeless organisations?


woud honestly recommend trying to save up for moving over here ASS-P will be treated top of the priority list being homeless and an aspie.
anyway,stay safe.

from what I have heard about prison is they have to keep your teeth in good shape because it leads to problems down the line. they cant have inmates dying from bad health it would look bad on the prison
