Comments on: Washtenaw Jail Diary: Chapter 5 http://annarborchronicle.com/2009/12/09/washtenaw-jail-diary-chapter-5/ it's like being there Tue, 14 Feb 2012 03:55:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Roy http://annarborchronicle.com/2009/12/09/washtenaw-jail-diary-chapter-5/comment-page-1/#comment-34578 Roy Thu, 10 Dec 2009 20:13:40 +0000 http://annarborchronicle.com/?p=32107#comment-34578 Again, a great series. Hope it leads to change. Any restaurateur will tell you the least expense is the raw food itself. That inmates wind up with dangerously meager portions is an abomination. And that the same contractor runs the commissary is completely over the top. That phone stuff: I had a friend in the Hogback Hilton some years ago. He could only call collect, and only through some funky service that charged about ten bucks a minute. We still talked a few times, but why couldn't he simply have dropped a dime like the rest of us? Bread and water , being held incommunicado in shackles on cold stone walls is always an option. Seems like that's what we're tacitly supporting. Again, a great series. Hope it leads to change.
