We have an eyewitness on A bay in San Carlos that has made records of CO Lucid’s denial of bathroom breaks during count. Here they are:
- 6-29 11:43 to ? no announcement of count cleared at 12:11pm
- 7-12 10:40 to 11:53
- 7-24 10:45 to Noon
This officer makes the elderly and infirm wait an HOUR and HALF without going to the restroom. This is draconian, evil, and cruel. It’s even worse during a KILLER HEAT WAVE when all the experts, and even the DOC itself encourages drinking lots of water.
Here’s a direct quote from a 74-year-old, “When Lucid is bay officer I automatically stop drinking water about 9:30am, in order to make it through count without wetting myself. All the other officers let you use the bathroom after about 40 minutes into count. We are counted usually within the first 20 minutes, so we’re not disrupting anything. I understand they don’t want you going to the laundry or microwave room during count, but women over 65+ need to visit the restroom more often than a youngster. I get really THIRSTY waiting for count to clear…it’s cruel.”
