Either the misreporting jail has software that's misconfigured to auto-report everyone or someone at the jail is entering data into the reporting system that they shouldn't be.
I've long suspected it's whatever lowest bid software the SSA or all the jails all seem to use. Somewhere there's a line like this:
if (stay > 30 days) then {report to SSA}
The infuriating thing is it seems to keep happening every single time. If it gets caught, they say, "Oops!" and make out a check, and when it doesn't get caught, well that's money in the bank for them. They have zero incentive to fix their shit.
Trying to minimize PL request, but were the jails you observed this in in a particular jurisdiction/geographic area? (Not asking which, just if your observations were localized or over far-separated areas)
Multiple jails and multiple special individuals in three different states. Mostly in one greater metropolitan area that spans two states. This is part of why I suspect the jails are either all using the same software package, or it's the SSA's computers themselves. The third state was a single instance of the special individual in question fucking up while on an unannounced, unscheduled "road trip" (bail denied because flight risk). The other cases were mostly long term because bail was granted but left unpaid. Fun fact: if the inmate is special enough, and they assess bail, but nobody pays it, they'll keep reducing the bail until they're only asking (begging) for someone (anyone) to sign to accept responsibility for the inmate. The fact that Chris was denied bail from the outset only goes to show just how extra special he is.
Wow that's bad. I expect apathy and indifference from government workers, but not actual effort to try to fuck me over, even when they're fucking me over. Not even from the IRS.
Iknowright? I couldn't believe the SSDI rep was so utterly brazen about it. It wasn't the case I was there for, but when you're waiting around to be called there's nothing else to watch but the cases ahead of you. The worst thing is I don't think anyone was punished. Bureaucrats do this shit simply because there is no incentive not to.
Pissed judges are always interesting.
Unless yours is the next case to go before them. I'm still not sure if the judge was pissed the SSDI rep was breaking the law right there in his court, or pissed that she was stupid enough to get caught.
For Chris' sake, I really hope someone is helping him.
There will be some court appointed advocate / social worker, but their time is limited, and Chris has a talent for burning bridges.
This. This is the way Chris will fuck himself over if he's too unhappy with his situation.
No doubt. But Chris always manages to find something to be unhappy about. Chris is going to end up bouncing from jail to managed housing to the streets to jail and so on for the rest of his life.
I still have hope that he won't fuck it up because he won't even know how to run away without a car.
About the best thing Chris has going for him is that he's not medicated (…yet - at least so far as I know) so he doesn't have any meds to go off. In my experience that's the single most common reason for special individuals losing their housing and ending up back in jail. They choose to stop taking their pills (as is their right - facepalm) and soon enough the furniture starts talking to them. And we all know furniture never gives good advice.
Psychotropics can fuck you up, but not nearly as bad as going off psychotropics.
There's some interesting tard farms out there in rural Virginia with no lyft/uber. If he were somewhere like that, then Chris would basically be stuck.
I think Chris would rapidly find himself on the Uber blacklist in any case.
It's not like he's going to strike out on a journey -- his idea of hiking the Blue Ridge Mountains is walking a few hundred yards around Monticello.
What if the weens offered Chris a PS5 life upgrade for hiking the Appalachian Trail?
Only if they could bus him someplace far, far away.
Isn't Cole in California? California is a common destination for Dr. Greyhound. I would not be surprised if Chris fucks up enough times that they eventually try offloading him on family, and Cole seems the best
victim candidate for that.
That's why I think they'll try to get him on as many federal programs as possible. The better a job they do the less likely they'll have to deal with him and use state/county funds to deal with his bullshit in the future.
I suspect that, if at all possible, they're trying to find him placement in some other county. That way when he fucks up again he becomes that county's problem. You may well be right that he'll end up in Richmond, but I think if they find a bed for him in, say, Virginia Beach, they're not going to turn it down.
I wonder if there are any sped houses in Accomac?
OK this is fucking fanfiction but it's *good* fanfic so I'll roll with it.
Chris would be happy to be back at the temple, but pissed to share it with slow in the minds. Still, if he got the best room/his old room he might be happy with it and once he accepted that there were other people there he would immediately start converting them to Neo Spiritual Christianity. With the right tards, he might actually gain followers.
Yeah, it's never going to happen (for one thing 14BLC is a split level), but it would be a whole new adventure if it did. "Next season on MTV's The Real World!…"
Sounds like you've actually had to deal with something like this before.
Let's just say I know for a fact there are far worse people in the world than Chris and Barb. Also as time passes you either gain a lot of experiences, or you pay a lot of money for other people's experience.
