| Bush signed a law authorizing the reds to do the same with their arrestees and noncitizen detainees. Rather than transporting arrestees to a station for a full booking, a process that averages 3 1/2 hours, cops worked with mall security to book and release people on-site. According to advocates and recently released prisoners, new arrestees are offered a choice--either plead guilty and be put to work on city cleanup crews, or plead not guilty and face months in Angola prison with no access to a lawyer. |
