I believe OP. I could have saved him the call though.
Chris isn't going to a pod. He's going to sit in a little locked dorm room with a little window he can look outside of and read one of twenty books from the library until he goes to prison. People are going to come and conduct several different types of psychological interviews and make their recommendation to the prosecutor. Nothing is going to happen past arraignment for at least two months because this is a motherfucking criminal case about mother fucking involving an autistic man.
If idiots give him money for lols, the first $100 or so is going to cover his clothes and booking fees. Pretty much the only thing the weens can do now is write him letters (he might not be given them), and give him money to see how fat he gets buying snacks and cokes in his hamster cage.
This is the truth, more or less.
So many turboauts on this board spewing some ridiculous headcanon about what the jail system is like, I was compelled to make an account just to point out the stupidity being peddled by coddled suburbanite morons. People who
unironically post stuff like this:
So he’s got a week and a half until he’s raped by niggos, got it.
... and how Chris is going to get stabbed for not joining AB or his fingers broken for getting handsy or whatever else is just spreading misinfo for the more gullible and intelligence-deficient to regurgitate in consequent threads down the line, creating a never-ending cycle of sheer stupidity and decidedly tired rhetoric in general. (Just to be clear, despite my own turboautism, I can recognize the facetious nature of the above post, but there are countless examples where some sperg gets all worked up asking whether something like this is possible).
1. All jails are different to some extent, depending on the state, ownership, etc. But general, higher-level procedures are pretty uniform throughout.
Jail is where you go when you are being held for a year or less. If your sentence is 12 months or less, you will be in jail. If your sentence is 1 year or more, you will be sent to prison, in many cases after having served part of that time in jail in wait of sentencing.
2. Not all jails are equipped to handle Tardius Maximus the Motherfucker, but he would be transported to one that is - and most government-operated jails are (which CVA Regional IS).
Everyone who believes that they will let this sex-offending nutcase into genuine gen pop is out of their fucking gourd. The way it works for a neurotypical person, who is not a sex offender, and who is not suffering from a medical condition such as withdrawal or AIDS goes through the following process (with some greater variation here depending on the institution):
a. Processed at the police station after arrest under suspicion of a crime.
b. Assuming the charges are serious enough, they are soon after sent to jail.
c. Once in jail, even before COVID, you would spend anywhere from 1 week to 1 month in "23-and-1" (23 hours in locked cells with a cellmate, 1 hour in the public area) "gen pop" before you are sorted into a more specific "pod" - basically wing of the jail, where you would have more lenient distribution of hours and floor plan (four-person open space cubes instead of a bunkbed in a locked cell), depending on the institution (20 and 4, 18 and 6, etc.). For example, you could be sent to the pod designated for workers, or one designated for non-workers. There may be multiple of each. At that point, it comes down to when and where there is space. As more informed commenters have stated elsewhere, this is what makes jails a revolving door, and in some way more tense of a living situation than prisons.
d. Before and after being assigned to your pod, you will have court appearances - laying down the charges, setting bail (if any), getting sentenced, etc. This whole time, you may have to spend in jail. Some cases end when you are sentenced to time served, and you just go home. Some cases end when you are sentenced to additional time, and if it is less than a year, you spend the rest of your sentence in jail. If it is longer than a year, you are transferred (eventually) to a prison. The whole process is incredibly lengthy, with periods of 1-3 months between court visits not being unheard of.
Now, why does this
not apply to Chris Chan? Because he is
both a sex offender and a turbo autist. These facilities will be designed to be able to handle such individuals, because of course they are. Looking at the
2018 budget of CVA Regional, it is clear that they have the space and professionals necessary to handle a non-neurotypical Lolcow like Chris. So what does the journey look like for someone like Chris?
Instead of being placed into "solitary" or whatever some of the more depressingly moronic idiots have stated here and elsewhere, he will almost certainly first be taken to medical due to his underlying conditions and delusions. Medical is generally designed more in line with an emergency room, where each inmate has their own bed that they are generally kept handcuffed to with much heavier supervision (one professional and/or guard for four-six patients is not abnormal). They wear what are colloquially known as
"chickensuits" which are basically paper clothes so you can't rope yourself in jail. Everyone is
heavily supervised and restrained. There will be
zero physical contact between Chris and any other inmate, unless you count being able to shout whatever blathering nonsense he comes up with at the people in the next bed - and he will likely be told to stfu by the guards present and not disturb the other ill people.
But, what happens to sex offenders in jails? They generally have their own pod, with each person having their own cell. They generally follow a 23-and-1 schedule, and are handled entirely separately from all other inmates - they get fed separately, let outside separately, and are not in contact with any other type of inmate. At most, you may be able to see them in an adjoining hallway through a locked door when they are being moved from one location to another. Maybe this is what some morons on these boards call "solitary" (since you have your own cell), but it's not solitary. Solitary is completely different. I'm not going to get into it because it is irrelevant and this is already an autistic as fuck wall of text to have to deliver, but you idiots left me with no choice. One notable difference is that in some systems, these living situations are actually
better than the other pods - for example, they may have heavily restricted and monitored iPads. Probably to keep them from going absolutely bonkers.
Which one will Chris Chan end up in? Well, this COVID isolation is something relatively new obviously, so I can't speak to that - but it is probably being handled within the medical section first. Eventually, pending the outcome of a first court appearance, he would likely be in the sex offenders pod if he was deemed sane enough. Otherwise, he could be wearing the chicken suit all the way up until sentencing, if any.
Sorry to drop a big fat turd on here but some of you idiots were just too stupid to tolerate.
Are inmates in the US allowed to bring any forms of devices for entertainment (Switch, 3DS etc)?
Because I've seen those Covid isolation units and they're small boxes with a bed, toilet and a small table. InB4 Chris goes even more insane there.
This is the type of shit I'm talking about. You are allowed to bring basically nothing into jail, not even your own fucking shoelaces, until you get sorted into a pod. At that point you are allowed to own stuff, but mostly shit you can get through commissary, like sweatpants, underwear, food, etc. There are, for the most part, no digital devices available to inmates except for a TV you don't get to control and is watched by you and 30 other inmates at the same time, at pre-determined periods of liberty.
