Catoosa County Jail

Sentencing

Interview with Katie and Angel


JM: How long was your sentencing for?
Katie: 5 years.
Angel: Well I got six months with credit for timed served, but did three because I got good time. They didn't count my time i waited on them in Mississippi to come pick us up.

JM: Did you spend time in a holding cell after your sentencing? If so, what was that like?
Katie: yes. 2hours. It was really bad. They would not give you a blanket or even toilet paper.
Angel: yes, the holding cell is the worst part of it. It is so cold in there. There is absolutely nothing but you in the cell and a cold stinky toilet. You can't lay down and nobody will acknowledge you while in there, and sometimes it's for hours on end. I was up there for two days because the computer was down with no shower anything.
