JM: Tell us about the pre-sentencing process:
Todd: it is usually a long drawn out process that could take weeks even months in some instances what usually happens some people get "lost in the system" and they dont get to court as fast as they should

JM: Did you have police stop by your house for questioning?
Todd: no

JM: What was your court appearance like?
Todd: i was already in jail whenever i went to court and they transport you to the jail in a steel enclosure inside a van then you had to sit in a holding space for up to four hours waiting on your turn to see the judge
