Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
My Boyfriend of six years, also my son's father went into DURANGO Jail, For being one day late on his fine, He had a warrent for his arrest by the next day! He got picked up on that nexted day. He has been in there for three week's now, With no bail or bond.

I have been down there about ten times since then to one try to see him, and two I've tryed to put money on his book's. Every time I have been down there for one of the two they have been so rude, They talk to you like you are a pieace of s**t and you are not humon! I wated there for seven hours one day just to tell me I could not visit him! Then when I was waiting out side for my ride I was sitting under a tree right where they drop the inmates off at durango.

There was a guy how was short and could not get out of the back of the truck fast enough the sheriff grab him by the neck and came close to hitting his fsce on the street! I had said something out loud so they could hear me on how they treat the inmate's he walked over to me and asked me if I could repeat what I said, I told him no so then he asked if I could give him my name or my I.D card and I told him I did not have it! But if I did what would he have done to me? It is freedom of speech I did not threet him at all.

Then on top of all this after not hearing from my boyfriend in three day I finally get a call from him to tell me he got jumped by eight black dudes over food! they are only getting feed once a day and by law it is at least twice! He got his nose broke and his eye had been gashed open He does not want to see the doctor because he will get jumped again!~ I also have got to put money on thid guys book's 20.00 By the next day or he told me He will be hating life! The officer did not do anything about it! I really want sheriff joe out of top sheriff and let him spend a day in there and see how he like's it!

Wow in jail if you keep a low profile you are generally left alone

Well first off your boyfriend had to commit a crime to get fined and when you are fined you get anywhere between 30 to 45 days to pay the fine and you are advised at that time that failure to pay the fine will be contempt of court and you will have a warrant issued for your arrest. He does not have bail or bond because he is probably serving his original sentence that was imposed on his. Most of the time the sentence goes something like this "you are sentenced to 30 days in jail with 30 days suspended and ordered to pay a 100 dollar fine". Don't pay the fine and you serve the original sentence which in the example I gave would be the 30 days in jail. It is hard to feel sympathy because 1 he commited a crime and 2 did not do what he needed to do to not go to jail. As far as him getting jumped I am sorry about his pain, but in jail if you keep a low profile you are generally left alone. The guards are not babysitters, they can not see everything that goes on in the facility. Their job is hard enough. We go to work and if we make a mistake we might get talked to by our bosses or upset a co-worker. These guys make a mistake and they might get injured or killed. Imagine going to work every day thinking that it might be your last day alive. Inmates are served 3 meals a day in any facility you go to if they were only getting 1 meal a day the aclu would jump on them faster than you can say "double cheeseburger". I truly feel sorry for you that you have to go thru. I know it is hard on you to worry about him and raise your son without his help. Hopefully this experience will serve as a wakeup call for him to keep his nose clean and accept responsibility for his actions (that includes being responsible enough to pay his fines) as well as mature enough to know that his biggest responsibility taking care of his family and raising a child. Good luck to you.

One day late on paying his fine?

So he was one day late on paying his fine, and they issued a bench warrant and arrested him. You think that was too soon? Was he going to pay the fine on the 2nd late day? Just think. If he had paid his fine for whatever legal infraction he committed WHEN THE COURT SAID IT WAS DUE, he could have avoided this whole unsavory situation. One more thing, if you're going to talk smack to corrections officer don't be surprised if you draw a reaction out of him. These guys take s**t from inmates all day long, seven days a week. You think he wasn't going to step up to you when you loudly voiced your opinion to him and everyone else within earshot?
