No I most definitely did not make a mistake.

Yes CCDC aka Clark County Detention Center (aka Las Vegas County Jail) is a jail in downtown Las Vegas where I did my kitchen slave labor recently on a 90-day sentence for basically jaywalking.

If I were to be sentenced for more then a year, I would have been sent to a prison somewhere in the boonies of Nevada away from Vegas.

The OP discussed a "3-year jail sentence", and I simply explained that would not be possible as jail and prison are significantly different institutions with very different implications.

I don't think I am wrong to continually express the difference between the two.



>... on a 90-day sentence for basically jaywalking.

Can you elaborate?



That is a rough story. I hope things improve for you.

Those who support the war on drugs should think about his point:

>...Was this the outcome society wants me to have? To wreck what small success I struggled to get over what amounted to an illegal search and seizure (that's my PD talking, not me)? Who was the victim of my "crime"? ...

The war on drugs is just a war on people.


TLDR. There was meth involved apart from the jaywalking...
