This story was told by a person incarcerated at Santa Rita Jail.
Caller: And now they’re trying to forcibly make take a plea bargain, and because I won’t take it, they have illegally court ordered me to [redacted] State Hospital to be involuntarily medicated without me ever being interviewed by one psychiatric professional of the two required under California State Law Penal Code Section 1368 and 1369. During the pandemic, this is what they’re doing at Santa Rita County Jail.
And that’s in [redacted], too. Well, that’s basically [unintelligible] my story and this data, these two databases have been illegally [unintelligible] for the last 17 years as [redacted] of the county probation officer as a supervisor testified too in my preliminary hearing.
And even though he admits that there’s no safeguarding system to ensure that – that the databases are, well, only pertaining to CLETS is accurate retentions of information, they are still insisting that I either take a plea bargain. And because I won’t take a plea bargain, they claim that I’m incompetent to stand trial fraudulently to make me take a plea bargain.
So they’re using the mental health state hospital as a means of forcibly making criminal court case defendants accept their plea bargaining during the pandemic. That’s how desperate they are to have a means of warehousing people’s bodies since the jails and prisons are becoming so empty. And that’s it.
