Back to Kenosha "on writ." The nurses are both refusing to do the initial medical screening of inmates in the intake cells. Myself and a lot of other guys are forced to wait six hours or longer for second shift medical staff to come in at 6:00pm. I end up waiting in the holding cell from about 12:30pm until 10:30pm. No phone call because first shift jail staff told second shift that we were provided calls when we actually were not. In response to one of the inmates getting upset about it the guards strip him down and put him in a padded "turtle suit." It was all antagonized by medical refusing to do theirs. One nurse was just standing with her arms crossed and refusing to try to help any inmates just because the other nurse had not bothered to have started. That was at 3:00pm with three more hours on her shift, not a single one of us was seen. Still, after three years of being mistreated, it bothers me to suffer the intentional or negligent consequences.
People think that criminals are the greatest detriment to society but if anyone was to happily deprive them of ten hours worth of income or delay them from going home for ten hours of any day and equate that to a dollar amount, I would suppose the greater damage would be by the people who hold positions of power or authority that use their position maliciously. When they open the door to send me to the housing unit, after hours of my asking to make a phone call, corrections officer DiCello offers to let me use the phone to which I decline as I don't wish to disturb anyone that late at night. The phones had been available for hours and it was just so obviously malfeasance. Another day without a call.
