I spent 5 days in that jail for a $75 traffic ticket I paid on time; the clerk fucked the paperwork. Lost 10 pounds in there and I ate every pitiful tray of slop they gave me.

The entire time I just paced, walked about, or slept; burning significantly less calories than normal - aside from shivering all the godsdamned time.

I have a special wad of hatred buried deep in my heart for that prison and that corrupt crumb of dickcheese Victor Hill.

Did you get any type of compensation?

Fuck no. I was out of work due to an injury, was homeless, and scared to Death missing the temp work I could do would drop me for 3 no call, no shows. Thankfully the four cops that were sent to collect my gimped ass stopped by my job first which gave them a heads up.

I didn't have the money to simply pay the ticket again - with an added fee of course - to gtfo and and get it sorted, much less what it would've taken to try and get some sort of compensation; and knowing ClayCo they'd've made my life a living Hell for doing it. Just wanted to put the bullshit behind me.

In case the context helps any; that sheriff Victor Hill fucker shot a real estate lady when viewing a model home; leaving her in critical condition. The woman's father called him to apologize for her getting shot.

I shit you not. Forgive me for not linking the stories, but if you're curious just fling "Sheriff Victor Hill accidentally shoots woman" and look for articles around 2015. I will link one below though because its so fucking blatantly... "weird."

Then because of reasons, after the woman healed up from being critically injured from the shooting, she fucking goes and tries to get a job working for the guy.

Idgaf who you are, unless your trauma counsellor is the eternal spirit of Mother-fucking-Teresa; if someone nearly kills you while fucking around, usually the last thing you want to do is call them BOSS.

That is, of course, unless it was a shady-ass way to handle "settlement" payments without the fucker having to admit he did anything wrong. That's purely speculative on my part, yet the scent of utter bullshit clinging to the whole ordeal sure as shit doesn't make it that hard to believe.

Kind of reminds me of Pursuit of Happyness without the finance job to look forward to. Maybe we can primary more progressives and get a labor party instead of the current pro-corporate Dems. Would help protect others at least.
