When a convict is yelling “get me my meds” you might want to listen....Why?

These guys need to move the holding cells to a much higher floor.

My brother’s a deputy sheriff and works in that very jail. I just called him and fortunately, he wasn’t working that shift.

Modesto? Low rise town. Short fall.

I think the jail is 3 or 4 stories, actually drove by it this morning. True, one of our taller buildings.

He initially was compliant with deputies, Christianson said, but once out of his cell, “the fight was on.”

Truth be told, he had it all planned. Better put an extra guard on his hospital door.

A lot of convicts are crazy and need their meds to keep from getting dangerous.

Then put them in a secure facility, called a ‘nut house’. I worked in three for many years. No real problems.
