Hi everyone!
I have a question and am wondering if anyone will be able to answer it. My husband was sentenced to four years, at half time, it is his first time and he is considered non violent. We are in California. He is currently at wasco reception center and he has been there just over a month now. Yesterday, he called me and told me that he seen his name on a list for transport next week and they have told him to pack it up. He said he seen his name on a list for chino prison. I am wondering if he is going there to permanently stay or are they finishing his reception process there? He is disabled from an old car accident and he has been in a medical pod at wasco during his whole stay. They told him he would be at wasco for 60 days, so I am just confused if chino will be his main prison or if he will finish reception there and then go to a different prison. Sorry for any confusion, this is all new to us. Any information will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

Hi everyone!

I am new to all of this and kind of confused about how time will actually work. My family member was sentenced to 4 years in state prison, he is a first time offender, and non violent. He took a plea deal on March 16th. He is severely handicapped from a car accident that happened almost 10 years ago. As soon as he took his plea deal, they transferred him to our local county jail and immediately the jail sent him to our local county hospital where he remained chained to a hospital bed for four weeks. Now, he is in a reception center, waiting to be transferred to his main prison. His parole date says March 2028 as of now. However, he said someone at the reception center talked to him and said they may be sending him home on an ankle monitor due to the extent of his injuries and the care he needs. He cannot use both of his arms essentially. He is currently in the medical dorm at the reception center now. If they don’t send him home on an ankle monitor, does anyone know how much time he may serve of those 2 years? We are in California, he has never had any priors, and his crime was considered non violent. I am just wondering how long he may actually do.

Thank you for everyone’s advice and input! I really appreciate it!!
