that i have. there may be criminal charges filed against inmate battaglia. more than likely not because of the small amount that was coming in. and being that the the return address was phoney, there s no way to determine who actually sent it in. battaglia does not know that yet. if they find me guilty, i m going to be upset because i can t risk another charge. instead of criminal charges, battaglia and his cell mate, who requested to remain anonymous, will each be investigated and receive disciplinary hearings. how are you going to fight the case? my words. i m just going to tell the truth. the first place i would look is the bunky. coming up when you moved into the cell with battaglia, are you aware of him doing that? battaglia s bunky speaks out and william bernard is the subject of a jailhouse rumor.

just wanted, like, some type of change, you know, because like you re in here and you don t have any control over anything. and i basically the only control i have is my hairstyle. and so i wanted my hair cut. coming up i m feeding you and you re providing a service for me. you help me. you clean my room, heat up my water in the morning, wash my dishes after i eat. nick battaglia and his new cell mate set up shop in general population. and william bernard acquires new ink and a busted lip. killing weeds where they grow. a barrier forms so weeds can t appear - serious weed prevention up to a year.

life inside the bergen county jail has been tough enough for william bernard. he says fights and harassment by other inmates has caused his stutter to worsen and sent him into panic attacks. he believes frequent visits to medical for anxiety treatment have led some inmates to believe he s an informant. now charged with threatening to kill his father and assaulting the police officers who came to arrest him, he s consumed by thoughts of up to 20 years in prison if found guilty. i m just afraid my father will get on the stand and testify against me. i think that would be a really strong point in a case, especially with a jury. and just just that thought alone that i can get a ridiculous amount of time for something that i didn t do
