Abilene Mom Thanks TJP
Dec 31st, 2011 | Category: Families Speak Out
| I would like to thank Diane and Diana and the Texas Jail Project for coming to Abilene and showing the medical neglect and mistreatment of inmates in the Taylor County Jail. She listened to our stories when everyone else had a dead ear. She helped my son Westley Freeman when he was in the jail being beaten and with medical neglect, after that things seemed better but then got bad again. It is people like TJP that helps make changes in County Jails. Thank you Diana & Diane for helping the citizens in Taylor County. Just know we are still fighting the fight.Cheryl Freeman |
what i want to know is :does the county have a right to charge an inmate for medical care and do they have the right to charge a court appointed atty’s legal fees back to the inmate..also texas prison garza west says my son can’t call me and wont be available for visitation,for at least 60 days….the reason for the no phone call is that” we dont allow them to call cell phones, only home phones”i need help pls
Yes, counties do have the right to charge for medical care and I I know it’s very hard for families to pay that, and some counties charge too MUCH in our estimation.
The probelm with your questions: I have no way to email or call you and I can’t really answer without more details. You are posting a comment and it does
not show me your email or way to contact you.
It sounds like your son is being transferred
to TDCJ and they don’t allow visitation right after transfer. Phone calls only to land lines is common too. You need to send an email to help@texasjailproject.org
if you want answers.
