Allen Stanford Wants Out Of Jail: “It’s Too Hot”
Allen Stanford, accused of more than $7 billion in fraud, believes he should be transferred to another detention facility because there has been no air conditioning in the jail cell where he is being held.
I say, make him sweat more! Put him in a smaller cell that’s even warmer! That’ll teach you!
From Reuters:
“For at least a week, during the hottest part of the summer, with outside temperatures of 100 degrees (38 Celsius) or more, the place where Allen Stanford is being held as a pretrial detainee has had no air conditioning and for part of that time was without power altogether,” Stanford’s attorney, Dick DeGuerin, said in a court filing on Sunday.
Stanford, who has been in custody since his arrest on June 18, is being housed in a single cell that he shares with between eight and 10 other men, according to the filing.
