Do you have a link? I have never heard that before.
If her family/friends can't bring her street clothes then her attorney should provide her clothes. jmo
I remember when this subject was discussed ... of someone writing messages on Angie's clothes ... Jake appeared in regular clothes but after that, when Angie came to court, she was still in jail garb. Judge Deering said something about Angie not being allowed to communicate with her family and her lawyer stood up and emphasized that he had told her not to. Then Judge Deering put it officially on the record and told Angie not to have any type of contact with her family, the ones arrested.
During the hearing Robin was writing on her pants.
Thus, some posters were speculating that maybe a relative tried to give Angie messages
from the other jailed Wagners, by writing on Angie's regular clothes then delivering them to the jail. The clothes would be thoroughly searched, not just for messages, but also for drugs and weapons and any kind of contraband.
Her attorneys had already told her not to communicate with her jailed family but it
sounded like she didn't listen and tried to communicate with them anyway, and so the Judge had to order her not to do it....2 Cents.....
If, due to court restrictions, prosecutors cannot use statements to guards or inmates at the jail, could tips from the guards or inmates be used? Where you might look for evidence maybe?
No and Yes. No the jail staff and inmates cannot
insert themselves into Jake's legal situation. No they cannot take something Jake says and phone it in as a tip. They are barred from discussing the case with him. Inmates who try to fish around for "evidence" would be moved out of the unit.
If an officer
overheard Jake saying something incriminating to person X, the officer has to stop person X from discussing the case with Jake and then whatever Jake said cannot be used against him because it wasn't soposed to be discussed in the first place!
But yes staff and inmates can give tips about Jake, as long as it's not about his case. There is nothing to stop inmates from snitching on him for breaking a jail rule, and nothing to stop officers from finding the "evidence" to prove he violated the rule...2 Cents.....
