Bed of chaos Posted September 14, 2019 #27 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Felicity got two weeks in jail. She'll most likely receive her own cell. No danger/abuse from other prisoners (or guards) with celebrity status. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just elitism and cronyism. Along with good old-fashioned corruption. A black kid with rich parents is on an equal footing with white kids with rich parents. The only "discrimination" here is wealth, not color. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you. Prison is not for rich people. Biggest shame is that the rest of us allow it. Edited September 15, 2019 by Eldorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

History doesn’t forget, and as I recall, the “poor” Nazis were not so successful, but the “poor” Chinese were with their cultural revolution.

It’s too late for your remedy, a true, final solution for the GOP has already arrived. It’s that self inflicted wound sitting in the White House, whose own crimes are becoming clearer by the day.

There is no defense for conservatism anymore. That brand is already dead. It wasn’t cancer that got you, it was your association with a criminal and a traitor.

aztek Posted September 16, 2019 #43 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Quote Felicity Huffman will spend two weeks behind bars in federal prison next month, but the facility she will be locked up in actually has some of the cushiest amenities the system has to offer. After the actress was handed a sentence of 14 days in prison by the judge in her college admissions scandal case, Huffman's legal team asked she be able to do her time at FCI Dublin because, "It's the closest to Ms. Huffman's residence. So, we got a look at the facilities 'commissary list' and it actually includes items like french vanilla cappuccino and bottled water. But thats not all, the first thing that comes to most people's mind when they think about the harsh reality prison is safety and hygiene. The safety issue will be address by the facility by assigning the actress to the "special housing unit" which is designed to house high profile inmates like her, and others at risk to be harmed. In this prison, hygiene is all taken care of...on the list of items for sale is bodywash, secret solid deodorant, baby powder, St. Ives lotion, Noxema, Oil of Olay, apricot scrub, cocoa butter cream, and even sun tan lotion. Luckily, there is even cosmetics like eye liner, mascara, lipstick, bronzer and even eye lash curlers. Dental products are also included like Close-Up toothpaste, dental floss, mouthwash, and several types of toothbrushes. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/felicity-huffmans-prison-offers-french-202023118.html Edited September 16, 2019 by aztek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
