Sentencing

Interview with DC, Keith, Joe, Heidi, Dillon, Kami and Linda

JM: How long was your sentencing for?
DC: 10 months. I served only 5 months because I was a trustee.
Keith: One month here, two months there then another month. I'm still fighting them while on BOND PROBATION. $60 a month, $11 for UA's. They make around $250,000 a month off of people on bond. Most of us are their own TAXPAYERS.
Joe: 10 years.
Heidi: 6 months
Dillon: Was never sentanced.
Kami: days
Linda: 3 years probation with 8500 restitution take a theft awareness and prevention class and get evaluated for Counseling

JM: Did you spend time in a holding cell after your sentencing? If so, what was that like? If you didn't where did they they take you instead?
DC: Imagine being in a closet with the lights on. It was that small. I was in there alone, so it wasn't too bad, though.
Keith: They have holding cells all through their system. They are clean because they don't want attention from the Texas Comission on Jail Standards. All the jails are freezing cold. While TAXPAYERS are sweating their butts off at home they're paying taxes to keep the jails around 60*F.
Joe: i once spent a calendar year in jail,you just have to get your mind set to do it,you got no other choice.
Heidi: yes, very cramped and emotionally draining
Dillon: No went right back up to pod.
Kami: yes it was cold and boring
Linda: I was in a holding cell the whole time. Before and after. Its cramped small you cant hear your attorny talk because there are alot of people talkin wth their attorneys people flushing the toilet and Inmates geting called.

my daughter is in tarrant county jail for probation violation she was on probation for unautorized use of auto for 3 years she violated by not reporting to her P O and failing drug test for weed she has been in jail 3 months she was givin a court appointed attorney and so far she didnt show up for her first plea hearing and the 2nd plea hearing she showed up at the last minute but she had not even talked tp the procecutor before court so when she got there he said 15 months state jail so she set it off for a hearing which is the 5th of october the lawyer said the best she could get her is 12 months state jail and she said my daughter has to basically suck it up ..she has not returned my calls she has never once went to the jail to see my daughter, her paralegal is rude to me, and just does not care. i have spoken to other attorneys and they say they can get her time served but i cannot afford them. Is it possible to have her fire this attorney and have the court appoint her another one....and if she can, is that a good or bad idea? Does anyone know of any attorney that can help me out and would be willing to work out a payment plan?

You will usually see a judge and receive your first plea somewhere around 2 weeks.
