Nation Once Again Shocked, Shocked By Jail Conditions

Law, Law Practice

So a celebrity of sorts takes her second DUI fall, gets a 180 day sentence in county jail, butgets out in 18 days.

Anticipated level of outrage by the she-should-serve-the-full-sentence contingent: high.

Percentage of the she-should-serve-the-full-sentence contingent who want to pay taxes sufficient to assure truth in sentencing on state and local level: low, very very low.

10% of the time in L.A. County is about what I would have predicted to a client. Personally, as I said when Jack Bauer was forced to fight terrorism from Glendale City Jail, I'd take the full sentence in a safe city jail over 10% of the time in County, which is a hellhole so freakishly vile it would make Hieronymous Bosch shit himself and turn to painting pictures of cavorting puppies.
