guess what day it is. it s april 15th, tax day. what? make the sound. most people have already fooimd filed already. the irs has t gotten 3/4 of the returns it expects to get this tax season. most have filed electronically. the agency says do not let that heart bleed internet security bug discourage you from filing online. but you do want to beware of a phone scam. fake irs agents are calling and asking for your personal information. do not fall for that. it s already bad enough. it s already bad enough. don t let that phone bug get to you but that new federal tax rate is quite a bite in the butt cheeks. i don t want to end on taxes. i want to leave you thank you, michaela. i feel the love. did you see over night the wonders in the heaven above, the moon in crimson red, the color of blood just hours ago? no biblically prophecy came true, it s a total eclipse.
you and then you ll go inside. okay. before markert is taken to her housing unit, she must undergo a full body strip search by a female deputy. all right. take your pants off. and i ll take those. take your socks off and turn them inside out. go ahead and separate your feet, wide stance, step back so you don t hit your head. bend forward. you re going to bend forward all the way. use your hands to separate your butt cheeks all the way, cough three times, really hard. cough. all right. go ahead and get dressed. this is your first time in santa rita? yeah. welcome to santa rita. go ahead and grab your stuff. that felt uncomfortable, like, getting undressed in front of someone i don t know. finally, markert arrives at her housing unit, where she will remain until her charges are resolved or she is bailed out.

to happen. we ve accompanied these inmates and many others through one of the more discomforting aspects of intake. the strip search. our intake officer will take them one at a time back into a strip room, do a visual cavity search. searching all that too? yep. they try to do it with a level of dignity and respect to not make the person uncomfortable. bend over and spread your butt cheeks. thank you. what size of underwear? because utah receives a relatively small number of new arrivals on intake days, officers can make the process more comfortable for inmates. we found a very different atmosphere at the sprawling and constantly bustling los angeles county jail. stand up, spread your feet. shoulder width apart. lift up your left foot, wiggle your toes.
