King County Jail: Zagat Rated
OK, so that headline's not really true (at all), but did you know that some people have actually rated the King County Jail on the internet?!?!?!
This jail's first review, posted on Citysearch.com in 2008, comes courtesy of Betty69:
To whom it may concern:
I hope u know that there is a man in the king county jail known as Jason Lee Johnson BA#208007181 that is tryin to bail out by monday, so all his junkie friends can go hide him out from the law. I got this news by hearing it from one of his friends Darcee ? and girl of Jennifer Finch that was over here in okanogan county. I would really consider him as high risk an danger to others. He is no good for ur community as he risks others lives in the pursuit of his massive junkie life he an his friends lead. I had no other way to contact this area so I hope that u will heed my words and keep this threat to society off of the street. Thank u for ur time. Betty69
No, thank you, Betty69.
Now, not content to let Betty69 blatantly trash KCJ, Citysearch(er?) Twisted2wice chimed in, knocking Betty's unfair review, and further stirring the interweb-jail-review-drama pot:
I am writting in reference to BETTY69'S ( BARB SUMNER) comment about ME JENNIFER FINCH. The woman that wrote the things about Mr. Jason Johnson is an X girlfriend who is on SSI for being mentally unstable. Obviously she is upset over Jason finding this out and leaving her. And as for her statements about addiction. Let's be real how would she know all this if she didn't use herself. Most Junkies don't hang with sober people. Jason is a ggod man that bad things happen to ever since I met him. I've known him since 1990 and consider him a brother. And I am embarrassed to sadly say that I know miss Barb Sumner and that she would air out our laundry over the internet.
Not content to let this jailhouse beef die, the delightful scottiesgirl26 chimed in with her own blistering review of good ol' KCJ:

How terribly ignorant! Yes, it is illegal to be a junkie in this horribly backwards world, but instead of thinking of this person, feeling for the horrible situation that he is in (I"m sure you've made mistakes in life, herion addiction is just a bigger mistake), you give his full name and booking number (?) and defame him anonymously over the internet. If you know him in person, call him out, kick his butt, do what you will, but don't be such a pansy that all you can do is talk behind his back on the INTERNET of all places. How dare you judge someone, especially without knowing (or caring to know) a thing about this horrible disease. Let's see you shoot heroin for a few weeks and see if you don't do things that you never thought you'd do. Heroin is horrible it's illegality erodes morals, minds, bodies, relationships...everything. I'm so tired of people who are completly ignorant of the street life acting like tbis. Shame on you! Why can't you try to help rather than hurt?
So....how many stars would you give KCJ? The jail only got 1 star on Yelp, but that must've come from someone who's never gotten the full KCJ experience. You get a nice, dry turkey sandwich; an awesome pair of jail slippers (or so I hear). What's not to love? I'm gonna give 'em 3 stars. Maybe I'll throw in another one if they cut back on all the rioting.
