When Elaine saw that Jakel was unrelenting, she knew that she would definitely have to enter the detention center today. She was filled with despair. After her last experience, she was truly afraid of places like the detention center.This was especially so since she was in a foreign country where she was unfamiliar with the United States, so she felt even more apprehensive about the detention center in the United States. Still, she never dreamt that if Charlie wanted to, he could get Jakel to help Elaine get a medical report so that she could continue staying in the hospital the whole time. If Martha could be caught as soon as possible, Elaine might not even have to wait until entering the detention center to be completely cleared of suspicion.However, Charlie felt that Elaine definitely would not learn her lesson in that case.That was why he had specifically asked Jordan to tell Jakel not to let Elaine stay in the hospital for too long and to send her to the detention cent
“Felons?” Elaine was shocked when she heard this word and hurriedly said, “Mr. White, can you think of a way so that I can be sent to another detention center instead? I’m just a helpless old lady, so how am I going to fight those felons?! I’ll definitely get beaten to death when the time comes...”Jakel said helplessly, “Sorry, Madam Elaine, but this is the operating rule of the New York judicial system. Judging by the current alleged crime that you’re charged with, Bedford Hills Correctional Facility is the only place that you can be sent to. This is not something I can deal with. I’m a lawyer, and I want to do things within the legal framework, not undermine the legal framework.” Elaine suddenly panicked and then spoke up as she asked, “Mr. White, is there a prison tyrant in the prison in the United States? It’s the kind of person who holds the most power in the prison and bullies anyone she catches.”“Well...” Jakel said embarrassedly, “As far as I know, there should be such
There was a very small single bed on the left and right in this semi-open space.At this time, the inmates inside were resting. Some of them were lying on the bed, and some were sitting at the head of the bed talking to others. When the group of inmates heard the prison guard yelling, they slowly got up and lined up in the inner part of the corridor in the middle. The prison guards did not rush to open the gate at this time. Instead, they counted the number of people inside. After confirming that everyone had lined up, he then said over the walkie-talkie, “Open the gate of Cell No. 12.”As soon as his voice fell, the heavy iron grill gate opened automatically. The two prison guards with batons took the lead and walked in first while the other two guards escorted Elaine and followed behind.After entering, Elaine was brought to a group of female inmates directly by the prison guards.This group of female inmates was all of different races, and their ages ranged from eighteen t
Elaine had completely misunderstood the logic of survival in American prisons.Here, the other inmates would certainly bully you to death if you were truly innocent, but if you were a felon, especially if you were a felon with a background, the other inmates here might not necessarily show you great respect, but at the very least, they would know that you were not to be messed with, so they would try to stay away from you as much as possible.These people would definitely have stayed away from her if Elaine had admitted that she was a drug dealer.After all, drug dealers were synonymous with outlaws in the United States, and drug dealers would never act alone. There would always be a ruthless and powerful organization supporting them. However, Elaine had exposed the truth when she was nervous because she was afraid that people would truly misunderstand her and think that she was a drug dealer.This was also the reason why the red-haired woman had slapped her without any hesitatio
When Chloe saw that Elaine’s face had swelled up, she laughed contemptuously and said, “Remember that I’m just teaching you a slight lesson today. If I don’t see a cigarette tomorrow, you will have to bear the consequences on your own, then!”Having said that, she instructed a woman behind her, “Jayne, go and get a basin of water!”The woman called Jayne ran to the bathroom immediately and quickly came back with a basin full of water.Chloe looked at Elaine and said coldly, “Sorry, you can only sleep on the floor today.”Having said that, she signaled to Jayne. Jayne was not a good person either. She looked at Elaine playfully before pouring the basin of water directly over her bed. This time, it was not just the bedding that Elaine received that was soaked with water but even the pillows and mattress were unusable.Elaine did not dare to say anything let alone resist. So, she could only look at her bed that was dripping with water submissively with immense hatred and regret i
All the inmates in the whole cell block were only enjoying the show, and no one wanted to say a word of justice for Elaine. So, Elaine could only clench her teeth and nod.Although Elaine felt very resentful, she did not dare to disobey Chloe. After all, she had no choice but to concede since she was in a disadvantageous position. What’s more, she felt even more helpless because she was in a foreign country now and had no one to rely on. Fortunately, Elaine could still adapt to the situation, and she could only submit and give in when she saw that she could not afford to offend Chloe.When Chloe saw that Elaine had swallowed all the toothpaste in her mouth, she smiled contemptuously and asked coldly, “Did the toothpaste just now help you recall how to give someone a foot massage?”Elaine hurriedly nodded repeatedly and said, “I remember... I remember...”Chloe snorted and scolded, “Since you already remember how to do it, why aren’t you getting a basin of water to wash my feet
Chloe pulled her foot out of the warm water and kicked Elaine’s chest as she said coldly, “Old lady, you need to figure out your place here. When you’re here, you only have one option, and that is to obey what I say. Otherwise, I have ten thousand ways to deal with you. Do you understand me?!” Elaine already had a broken rib. After getting kicked like this, even though Chloe did not hit her broken rib, the pain caused Elaine to tear.Elaine could not help but look at the other inmates as she hoped that someone would step forward to administer justice for her or even plead with Chloe on her behalf. However, she did not expect that everyone in the entire prison cell, including the Oskian girl who had spoken to her and translated for her just now, was only watching as she was ridiculed. So, she could only nod as she sobbed and cried out, “I understand... I understand...”Chloe sneered and then looked at the time as she spoke up, “It just so happens that there are still four hours left
Elaine knew that many bad people were colluding in this place, and it was not the right time for her to reason with this American prison guard. So, Elaine hastily asked her, “Can I call my family now?”“Yes.” Jacelyn said lightly, “It will be your unwinding time after dinner. You can use your ID card to call your family then.”Having said that, she secretly slipped a piece of paper into Elaine’s hand and whispered, “This is my younger sister’s phone number. You can contact her if you want to buy cigarettes.”She could not wait to call Charlie right now and cry so that she could let Charlie do everything he could to save her.However, if she wanted to call home, she would have to wait until dinner time was over and everyone was out on the field. So, Elaine could only follow the large group to the dining hall.When Elaine was in the dining hall, she could only hold her dinner plate and forcefully bring her dinner plate to an unoccupied corner.After she had sat down, Chloe sudden
