Ugh. When I was in jail I had to have a bright light shining on my face every night for five years. Cover the light and you went to the Hole.

- rootw0rm 5y agoAt one of the jails I was in the deps would put the dayroom TV on at full volume all night long when they were pissed at us. between that, no pillows, and 3:45 AM breakfast, sleep hygiene isn't terribly valued in county
- kingcharles 5y agoWere we in the same jails?! I think this shit is universal across county jails. Prisons get more litigation, but jails are hard to litigate in. I fucking hate no pillows, 3AM breakfasts. I sued and got the breakfasts legally changed to 6:30am. That got me another 10 days in the Hole.
