eric3579says...That shit is NASTY! How is that even legal?
newtboysays...Definitely cruel and unusual punishment. Just the overcrowding alone is illegal, throw in the mold, you're talking torture.
It's absolutely illegal to knowingly subject people to dangerous/deadly moldy conditions like that. If this were a private home, it would be condemned and any children living there would be taken by child services for being abused.
Every officer in that unit should have to spend at least one night a month in one of those dungeons, then go home to their families without access to showers or clean clothes. They would have it spotless before the first night, guaranteed.
I certainly hope those inmates CAN start a class action suit against the Sheriff's office, but it's likely they are indemnified by law from responsibility for their conditions.
Somebody call the county building inspector and get that place closed.
siftbotsays...Moving this video to Mordhaus's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
eric3579says...*promote
siftbotsays...Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by eric3579.
iauisays...Get on this. This is the kind of thing bobknight will be using in his home country to slander Americans.
bobknight33says...Slander who? The crooks or the government?
Bleach in a spray bottle kill the mold. OR better yet get the vent system working.

SeesThruYousays...My opinions on this would be mostly unpopular, I think.
poolcleanersays...Why? Because you hate humanbeings? That would be unpopular for sure, considering only humanbeings care about popularity. Unless you hate humans in comparison to your love for kittens -- that would be VERY popular.
Go on then, tell us your unpoopular opinion about popping out at parties. *sees through you -- or around you -- oh GOD it's a three-headed monkey comin' right for us. Shoot it!!*

wormsays...My opinion may be unpopular too, but I see a room full of people who aren't going anywhere, and if they really wanted to improve their condition then a little elbow grease can clean that place right up for about $15. Hell, throw in a few cans of paint/supplies for another $100.
Oh, and how about this novel idea: don't like what jail looks/smells/feels like? How about making sure you do whatever it takes to NOT go back. Its a jail, not a boarding house for indigent children who cannot fend for themselves.
Yeah, I just don't have much of a bleeding heart for the repeat criminal. Maybe we can save this type of jail for the multiple-time repeat customers and keep the jails that are barely above livable for the first timers.
newtboysays...Yep, for $100 a room they could fix this, but they don't? That would make it intentional torture, right? The prisoners have nothing to clean with, and the jailers aren't providing anything. Besides, bleach doesn't fix leaks or humidity that makes the walls sweat, so $100 of bleach and paint wouldn't do shit after a few days, and does nothing about overcrowding.
This is jail, not prison. Most of these people are not convicted of anything yet. You call them repeat criminals, but you have no idea if any of them are repeaters or even criminals. Jail is where you wait for trial if you can't afford bail.
Just wow.
