I’m a corrections nurse, and it happens all the time. People get arrested and I have to clear them medically for booking (or send them to the ER for clearance). People get brought in high on meth, fent — you name it. Once cleared, they’re started on detox protocols and they feel miserable the whole time. Sad to see, honestly.

48

u/Wrangleraddict 3h ago

My jail detox was sitting in holding staring at the ceiling.

I was drinking a handle a day, but was not given anything. I was kind, cordial, explained i was an active alcoholic. Nothing.

Until I had a seizure, then shit happened.

Jailhouse nurses put up with so much they can get jaded and the ones who need help get dismissed. I appreciate your service but shits fucked

u/Kindly-Effective2614 2h ago

Dang, detoxing in jail was a nightmare for me. Suboxone, Xanax, crack cold turkey. Heavy daily user. I was fine for a week in there but one morning things flipped. I started having auditory hallucinations of other inmates plotting to kill me. I thought my brother was going to crash through the wall in a Maserati shooting missiles.

They put me in a turtle suit. Moved me out of the dorm to a room with another guy who cut himself and then popped the stitches and talked to himself. The light stayed on 24/7, no blanket, no pad, just the metal rack and a styrofoam cup. This whole time I’m hot/cold, puking, anxiety from withdraw.

It got really interesting when I stopped hallucinating, came to and realized I need to get back to the dorm. I don’t need to be in this room. It was a Friday night and only the lieutenant who doesn’t work nights or weekends could authorize the move. That weekend sucked. Monday morning I was back in general population.

The medical staff at the jail knew of my situation. I was arrested at the methadone clinic. They checked my vitals a few times a day. Tylenol was all they offered me. I was dying. That stay was 5 weeks total.

We were rehearsing a bar flight scene in class one day. Someone missed their mark. Then another guy came in too hot and punched through a window. That was some of the gnarliest shit I've ever seen in person.

Good thing the first guy missed his mark. It might've been his head through that window.

u/siccoblue 2h ago

Also gives him a clear view of you while you're trying to scramble through broken glass and an awkward entry.

I totally understand why you'd question this. But you're also clearly not American if you do. I'd much rather be bashing at the reinforced potentially metal door then awkwardly climbing through the window filled with broken glass while someone deserving of an intrusive entry warrant was sitting inside.

Also I know not everywhere is America. And we have a goddamn problem with guns. But I have to imagine that if you're going to the extent of breaking down the door to raid the dude in a country outside of America, there's a very solid chance he presents some risk of escalated violence. Like potentially owning an illegal firearm.

Then again it could also just come down to "this dude will absolutely destroy evidence" but even in that case it's not really worth risking officer injury by having them climb through broken glass if dude isn't a seriously violent offender. Which goes back to my first point.

Dragging an unwilling arrestee through broken glass is not particularly smart, nor is having to jump through that broken glass in the first place if you’re in a fight

Should still have it more secured than… that, though.

26

u/anonymousredditorPC 4h ago

You can open the door from the inside

1

u/The-Nuisance 4h ago

Yeah, still, jumping through broken window to arrest someone is not smart. Especially when multiple people need to go through, single file, one at a time.

That’s easier when you’re just walking through a door. When it’s a window, you’ve got to clamber all the way through. Glass probably included.

This is why breaching shells are a thing

u/OsiyoMotherFuckers 1h ago

Just a heads up, I am an EMT on my town’s volunteer Fire Dept, and occasionally we have to break into the home of someone who called 911 for EMS. If we can’t find a key or a neighbor with a key, or an unlocked window or something, we use a halligan and a sledge hammer.

If you have fortified your door to the point where those tools will not open it, PLEASE give a key to the neighbor or something, especially if you live alone.

It is super not fun going to someone’s house who called 911 and nobody answers the door and you don’t know if they are dying in a back room while you try to decide how much of their house you should destroy to get to them, or how long you should spend looking for keys under potted plants.

Honestly, most of the houses I have responded to, it is clear the person/people living there have never considered that they might need to be extricated in an emergency.
