New Orleans man locked up nearly 8 years awaiting trial, then case gets tossed
There's an inmate in LA County jail who has been there 9 years awaiting trial on attempted murder.  He is completely and totally institutionalized.  A very nice guy but intimidating.Cops can arrest you for any reason, and if you can't make bail, then they place you in jails with convicted violent felons, some on murder trials.In LA jails, you have to be racist.  Depending on your pod and program, you have special requirements.You often have to fight, especially if you are black or Hispanic.  If there's a brawl inside the pod, you have to fight other races or you will be beaten by your own.I sat in a tiny room for 11 hours with 50 inmates, half of which had face tattoos and were gang members.  A room where inmates had been beaten to death and the others just cover up the cameras.Multiple times I wasn't called to court, they were "dry runs".  Mental torture and real risk required just for due process.These types of systems only create more criminals.The deputies act like psychopaths, taunting and roughing up inmates.  But not as bad since now the FBI has cameras watching them.The person who interceded in my misdemeanor case and put me in jail was the former head of California Homeland Security.His lawyer, also a former federal prosecutor, was in every court appearance lobbying the prosecutor.  He also represented the Chief of Police, the City Council and the Sheriff.Their boss is a secretive billionaire whose former lawyer  became the new Supreme Court Justice this year after he lobbied  He is a very powerful person who hires former federal officials as political mercenaries.This all happened because they wanted to protect a wealthy sex predator.  In 2-weeks, the Homeland official is actually testifying for the sex predator for his civil trial.  He is presumably testifying against my credibility.
