  • I heard from someone just out of jail that all sorts of bad things are going on in Ramsey and Scott counties.  So many stories require undercover surveillance. I will be faking a crime and going undercover to get these bad officers. I have a photographic memory that I can download into any Macintosh computer. I will get you pictures, stay tuned.

  • America is the Torture Country.

  • @bearbear420 my son is 19 he went from 155 to 133 6 ft 2 non violent charges.I think going hungry is inhumae.being locked up is one thing but i feed my animals better than jail does.Not asking for steak and potato just enough food to keep malnutrition from setting in.

  • i been to ramsey county. they took money from me. ive seen them throw other inmates around in booking area. they ignore people in ned of meds or inhalers. it was never this way before they made the "new" jail.

  • btw you can't get away as a guard with what this guy is claiming because of cameras and also even when you do have alot of rules, they are not enforced very hard to keep the grievences down, you can still get locked down for 12 hrs but in general things are soft , just mainly complience issues, like keeping your cell clean and being disorderly ( cursing and fighting staff or other inmates or contraband) get you in trouble while in jail.. this guys is a piece of garbage , you can just tell.

  • he can hardly recount what he says happened, BTW the feeding schedule of most jails has one period of time that is 12 hrs between feedings , usually between supper and breakfast, also most inmates in jail are trash, btw just in case you don't know what trash is, he is the one speaking in the video, break the law then cry and groan when someone makes him act like a civilized human being

  • I saw this guy get arrested. I'm not on the other side, but 99% of everything he said was made up. He just didn't listen when the officer just wanted to see if he was okay and overreacted like he was being arrested, which led to him being arrested. Pussy. Not even a real anarchist.

  • Use of these correctional techniques appears to be on the decline. Is it so?
