My son is in jail for robbery, one of his neighbors was raided and arrested when they found coke in her home( someone tipped off police and they had a warrant to search her house.) Now she and her family are saying my son was the informant and if they hear that he snitched on them to the police they are putting out a hit on his life. Many of his friends have heard this and have come to my daughter with this information. they say he snitched while in jail to get his sentenced reduced. hearing that there is a threat against him has my whole family upset, and worried. is there anything that can be done to protect him?
I'm not arguing here, but wow, just wondering exactly what I said that was so wrong/incorrect to get treated like this? I honestly have no clue and I do honestly want to know. Just PM me.
edit: On second thought, nevermind, don't bother. I'll just leave on my own, you don't have to suspend me. I'll only come back to check the question I just asked, once I get an answer I'll never come back. Does that suit you?
You cannot post this for absolutely no reason that I can see ("Steve, your maturity level astounds me. I gave basically the same answer you did.....tell the jail, get him moved into PC, MOVE when he gets out, so what is wrong with my answer? NOTHING, it is a good answer. If you don't like me, fine, but grow up for pete's sake.") and then turn yourself into the victim.
You, in fact, are the aggressor, the totally uncalled for aggressor.
As a side note - you like side notes - we all started out here as strangers and earned our stripes as we went along. For whatever reason you are having difficulty with people and other people who have joined are not.
I'd look at myself first before I began blaming other people for my problems.
Well, I disagree because steve made fun of me in a childish way FIRST, and is still making fun of me, I don't see how his behavior is applauded, this is a joke. It's so immature, but whatever. Why not just either say nothing or say it in "big people words"-like "Where are you getting this information from?". It's never OK to make fun of someone, is it? How am I the agressor when someone makes a nasty post at ME first? I don't have a problem with anyone here, I do have a problem with the immaturity of a couple people. We should all perhaps take a look at ourselves. Look at your past few posts here, and tell me you think that's OK??!! GMAB, it's completely childish. I may have given an incorrect answer or misunderstood the OP's question, but that's no reason to make fun of me constantly. Everyone makes mistakes, big deal. Correct me and move on. Take the chance to be a teacher, there's no need to be so childish all the time. PM me and say something. People are way more apt to listen to and respond beter to a more helping voice than this childish, make fun of everyone garbage.
Anyway, my husband works in a prison with ALL the usual gangs and some more concentrated to our area, and ABSOLUTELY orders from "the outside" get inside through letters, visits or directly from Guards who are affiliated with gangs. A common letter type that is an order might have cursive letters mixed with printed letters that are in yet another type of code. Statements in a letter such as (most common) "She had the baby, it's a BOY or GIRL.....the BOY or on the other hand, GIRL would be the order-kill or not, beat down, whatever. Those are the most common examples, there are way more intricate codes of course but there's no need to go into it here, you can look it up for yourself if you're interested. Inmates pass letters called "kites" passed between cells that commonly contain orders or heads up.
All I was trying to say in my first post was that this guy is NOT safe in jail. Orders to beat up or kill are commonly brought in from the outside. I told the OP to tell the facility, and they may or may not take her seriously or care. More likely, they won't do anything. People can be put in PC (if there is a PC area) but they do not get individual special attention and there is still no guarantee that nothing's going to happen to them.
steve, gang problems are no joke or laughing matter. Just this year alone, in my small area, there have been several murders, large drug busts (gang related), drive-by's, etc. A child was killed in a drive by. I don't think that's funny. And I've only lived in OK for a few years now, I am from New York, lived there for 25 years plus.
I could go on and on with these murders and shootings in my "podunk" town (yes EVERY single link is from the same podunk town, and there's many, many more). I don't think it's one bit funny or anything to joke about. The murder rate here is so high compared to the population size, we have a serious problem here. No joking matter at all. Why don't you tell the mother of the 6 year old who was killed a few months ago how funny you think it is.
Judy, I don't know how you can't "see" why I posted that to steve. Red my FIRST post on this thread, then read steve's post right after mine. I said nothing to steve, I only answered the OP's question with factual, correct information. steve's response included this line

"so I wouldnt listen to passmeby at all since she is clueless when it comes to most things not bartending. The rules arent the same in middle of no where oklahoma, hon.
If that's not an obvios insult and personal attack, then I don't know what is. I simply called him on it, it IS immature. Is it not?? Really??
I still have YET to be told what is incorrect about my answer to this lady. Nothing, that's what.
But don't bother posting to/about me anymore. I have no more reason to come back to the site so I will not see anymore of your posts.
Goodbye. Thanks to everyone who gave me any help over the few years I have been here.

More of your passiveness/aggressiveness. What does a 6 year old being shot in a drive by have anything to do with the question about someone in jail being threatened?
Quite frankly, in view of some of your posts and your husband's employment you are foolish indeed to provide so much information about where you live.
Otherwise - I'm out of this argument with you. The thread has been hijacked (again), I see no benefit to the OP and, quite frankly, I'm tired of reading your off topic posts.
You have mental health or addiction issues which cause you to repeatedly hijack the legal boards. Uncalled for.
Post correct info the first time, get the chip off your shoulder. Now that you are not doing any new postings, just answering old threads, the incorrect info problem has been solved. You seem to think I am "after" you. That is not the case. When you post that in a two car backing up accident the car that feels the bump is at fault (??) SOMEONE has to correct you. This says it very clearly:
YOU: "Juy, why must you argue with every post I make?"
ME: "I disagree with your posts because you are consistently incorrect.
I'm an accident investigator; what do you do for a living that qualifies you to answer this question? As far as I have read your experience involves being involved in an auto accident and having a husband who was involved in an auto accident.
I have investigated thousands of auto accidents; Nikosmom has handled thousands of insurance claims and you continue to argue with both of us, posting statements such as "You said you felt a "bump"....that means YOU hit her. What other proof could there be, really, whn you say yourself that YOU felt the impact? Pay her. You're responsible."
Not only is this "opinion" unsound, it's actually laughable. Do you honestly believe that when two cars impact the "bump" is felt ONLY by the driver who is responsible for the accident?"
As much as you would like to believe you are, you are NOT the victim here. In fact, the OP is the victim because he/she received very incorrect info which, in the end, could cause him/her time and money.
I wasn't making fun of gang violence. I was making fun of you.
My initial "attack" wasn't in reference to your advice - which I also posted but your little speech after it which sounded like the plot line from an episode of Oz. Knowing what I do about you, it sounds a whole lot like you talking trash for attention (also a regular occurrence)
As for me, I regularly get warnings for being too mean or unnecessarily frank. And yet people agree with me, frequently before my posts are deleted.
Do I have something personal against you? Aside from the fact that your writing comes off as that of a 14 year old with PMS... no... I couldn't care less about you. My issue here is that you sounded like you were posturing to make yourself seem more knowledgeable than you actually are.
Edit: sorry to any 14 year olds with PMS. I did not mean to offend you.
