    You go to jail for weed but a old guy can harm a 13 year old child and its probation and sex offender registration. Those are the dudes who need to rot in jail for life.

    I feel so sorry for that young mexican kid that was crying. He doesnt belong in jail for smoking weed. He had me almost crying with him. Jail is the worst place for someone with depression. Weed in a small amount shouldn't be a jail sentence! Poor kid!! đŸ˜„
  • I've been to Texas jail williamson county. I had a misdemeanor, I was scared to death but honestly the inmates were nice to me. I was so depressed and dehydrated an inmate bought me a Gatorade. I was blessed in all honesty.
  • My son is in Bexar County right now. It will be 3 years in July. He has been found incompetent and also insane at the time of the incident. He's bipolar and schizophrenic. Almost 3 years just to get a court date. Please pray for him that he receives the help he needs. His court date is April 15th. Thank you for doing this documentary Reg!! đŸ™â€ïž

    Great program. Sometimes all you need is somebody who listens.

    We need to educate our young men. Stay bless everyone. Reporting live from Houston, Texas. Peace.

    Smoking pot is pretty much legal all over the country, the young Mexican kid doesn’t belong in jail for smoking weed.

    born and raised from san Antonio Texas i pass by this jail everyday going to work. i never imagined it being like this from the inside. this is so sad and i want to help this men alex being arrested for weed is ridiculous. in the stare of texas correct me if im wrong the law has changed and now having over an ounce of weed you get arrested.

    As someone from the uk I wasn't aware of how strict the system is in texas. People having their life ruined for a bit of weed is disgusting.

    Reggie great doc... Our system is broken... Being someone who was incarcerated with mental problems ..i dug myself out if it, with conceling and apstaining from alcohol.. I know live a rich life. All my charges were dismissed. I went to treatment.. and the court acknowledged, my crimes were comitted in bad mental states... When i was mentally healthy, i finished a college degree, when not ..i was a drunk out of control guy... Its important to get help ... Thanks for this ... Great insight...

    Being stuck in a cell all alone is SO SCARY. IT "WILL" DRIVE YOU CRAZY.

    Reggie is a legit journalist. I liked this piece and his insights.

    As someone who has been to jail before, they left out the truly worst part of county jail: Going to court. Getting woken up with hundreds of other guys at 3am, having to be handcuffed on your hands and on your ankles, getting on the bus, waiting all day to see a judge, all while wearing the shackles, and all you get to eat is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and some milk or juice. Then having to go back on the bus back to the jail at night after the hellish day, and repeat this court process multiple times until you get sentenced.

    TEXAS is so fucked when it comes to marijuana. I feel so lucky to live in a state where you can go buy whatever from the store and smoke in peace.

    I been in bexar county a few times in my younger days I spent about a total of a year and a half total in their and I can tell you it's hell in a cell literally. Thankfully I've changed my life since but there's days I have flashbacks and it's hard to shake them.
  • I was in for a misdemeanor at one point due to one of the episodes of my own mental illness, and another time for a probation violation, in which I failed to notify my probation officer of my out of state railroad employment. Both times, I was in with those who committed crimes from aggravated assault with deadly weapons, to one murderer that was only just brought in, after being discovered in a 20 plus year long investigation. All the inmates of said offences in my block were surprisingly kin like to me and as long as none of us disrespected each other and the CO's treated us with all just the same, nobody really had much of any issue on either side and I made it pretty smoothly up to my court date in which the judge thankfully saw I was trying and let me get back to work with reinstated probation. Only got one more year to go till I'm off the hook for good.
  • This really opened my eyes man, we as a country are throwing people in jail instead of helping. So sad...
  • @denilzo210
    38:00 that part really got me. More than blessed to be able to be in a house with my mother and siblings and have the little things in life I forget to be grateful for. Definitely gonna start praying more.
