Why do the ladies at Perryville call it that? This particular van is described by the residents as ancient, filthy, no a/c or heat, and NO STEP STOOL as required by policy.
Try this in your van or truck tomorrow…. first put a belly chain on, then handcuff your arms to that, and don’t forget to shackle your feet so you can barely move. Then imagine you’ve had major surgery of some kind, or a broken leg, or 3 feet of intestines removed. Try to get in the van with no help from the officers, except screaming at you of course. If you’ve made it that far congrats, you’re probably under 30. Now imagine it’s August and it’s 118 degrees…..and they stuff you in a van with no a/c. Petty cruel huh?
When Paul Whelan came back from 5 years in a Russian prison, and he started describing what the conditions were, I really swore he was talking about Perryville.
