I was a guest here in 2014 and had the most disturbing experience. There first night I was there I…read moremet a young girl (I would say she was in her early 20's) and she was very ill. This was her first visit to jail and, at first I thought she was dope sick (seems like everyone is the first few days in jail, sadly) but then I could tell it was something far more serious. She informed me that she needed her heart medication and they would not listen to her. I even attempted to talk to the officer to let them know what was going on but those attempt's were useless. If you've ever been to jail you know their favorite response to any need you might have is "go fill out a kite" so I showed her how to do this and I'm pretty sure that kite was never even read by the staff before the traffic turn of events. I was in the cell next to here and assured her I would be there if she needed to talk and I would do what I could to help her. During the middle of the night I was woken by the sound of a defibrillator machine. And while they had covered my cell window so I couldn't see out, it didn't take long to figure out what was going on. With tears steaming down my face, I listened to them try to get this girls heart beating for what seemed like forever. They were unsuccessful and this poor girls life was taken and it could have been prevented. I've never witnessed such inhumane treatment in my life. This girl tried to tell the staff members many times and not one of them helped her. It was in the newspaper. A short paragraph telling of a 23 year old woman who died of "natural causes". No, Pierce County, she died from your negligence and it should have never happened. I don't know if her family was ever told what really happened and it's terrifying that the jail was never held accountable. This girl was not a druggie and was not trying to get drugs to get high or something. She was begging for someone to listen to her and give her the heart medication she needed. Not one person there had the human decency to help her.

If you need medication forget it. You will slowly deteriorate until some power hungry guard thinks you are "misbehaving"and either hits you or drags you to "solitary..or more likely, both. And if you have/need glasses to see and function forget that too. Rather be dead than in this hellhole.

One fellow inmate was left in the holding cells over 24 hours they just forgot about him or something. When I was supposed to be released they got me mixed up and brought me to the waiting room to see a Judge, then they realized I was in the wrong room and the took me to release. Then during release it was shift change so they already had like 12 of us in the waiting room to leave dressed in our civilian clothes but would not let us leave because someone had to sign off on us leaving. The Jail was filthy in comparison to other I have been in, the CO's were abrasive unhelpful and unwilling to answer questions. Forms to make request were not stocked and writing utensils were not made available to fill them out. Vegetarian options were offered for food and sleeping quarters were cramped/ poor implimentation of bed placement. Beds are just part of the building no cushion other than your pillow and blanket.

Wasn't read my Miranda Rights, wasn't told why I was being arrested, denied a phone call, and put in solitary confinement for 5 days. Never did an officer talk to me. The food delivery person asked why I stopped eating and told him such. He went and got me a phone call and that's how I got out. The food deliverer is more ethical than the devils who run the place.

My son has told me he never wants to go back but that he will miss the staff and some kids he met there. When I went to visit, I could sit right by him and rub his back... I felt sad for my son but knew he was facing his consequences there. It seemed low key during visiting but i don't know how he felt when he had to go back to where he came from. Another positive I noticed was he was attending school inside the facility.

Lots of spineless white people that only want your money and make a point of looking out for white people first. Black people are 7.2 times more likely to be cited for non-violent infractions in this city. Believe it and count on the cops coming up with more excuses than solving problems or making arrests when Black people are the victims. Non-White services have been great here however. From car repair, law offices, and food services, always having nice and friendly people that you'll make a point of seeing again and again. Nightlife leaves a lot to be desired.

Rainier!!)! The people are ridiculously nice, and having quite a few retirement communities & well regarded schools, Des Moines has a friendly & accessible social environment. Downtown Des Moines has a mix of new boutique restaurants & community owned stores. On the 4th on July there's a marina fireworks show & mid summer there's a truly charming parade, local carnival, & farmers market. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Des Moines to anyone as a great place to visit & an ever better place to live!

Due to my sexiness, I was able to seduce the female guard into letting me smoke a cigarette before being locked away. And due to my hilarity, I was able to make the deputy administering the breath-test to get it wrong, making it inadmissible in court. Bonus! There's a healthy amount of pornography pasted to the underside of the bottom bunk in each cell and the staff is more than happy to give you a cell on your own should one be available. Another bonus is that, unless you're a 100LB methhead, it's likely you'll be bigger and better at fighting than anyone in your block. Hooray! My only complaint is the rude 5AM wake-up time, poor game/book selection and grubby telephone that didn't really work.
