Contrary to the concept of “equal justice for all,” multiple Southern California cities offer upgraded jail cells with phones, DVD players, and full-sized refrigerators to offenders who can afford the daily rate, reports KNBC.

The family of one Seal Beach man paid over $72,000 for an upgraded cell, away from the general population, while he served 2-years for killing a classmate after crashing his car while driving drunk.

One percenters buy premium comfort even while in jail.

1. The best justice money can buy.

They laugh in the face of the victim and his family.

2. This quote from the KNBC link says it all, and all too clearly:

"It's good people who made a mistake, made a bad choice — and they have to pay the consequences," Lomeli said.

Get that? If you have money and go to jail, you're a "good person who made a mistake", distinguishing you from the ones with no money, who were obviously bad and deliberately commit crimes.
