Gwinnett County Jail reviews and complaints
Scamming loved ones and restricting inmates
Inmates are being kept on a 24 hour lock down for days at a time. My loved one has complained to being locked in a room for 24 hours for 5 days. He has been unable to communicate to family and loved ones and unable to speak to any outside family. I have paid for video call sessions that he did not attend but when I call the jail they explain his visitation is perfectly fine and he’s allowed visitation. He has never missed one voluntarily and would always make his video calls being that’s the main way we communicate. I have been ripped off for my money by setting these video calls to not have him join with no explanation. Gwinnett couty is scamming loved ones out of their money and not providing the most care to their inmates. A investigation needs to be held regarding why inmates are not joking visits and why inmates are being held on 24 hour lock down if there is nothing wrong.

No care for inmates at all
I have a loved one who is locked up in Gwinnett county jail & he informed me that you guys keep having excessive lock downs idk why y’all keep doing that knowing jail is an awful place do you evil people have any care for humans at all. After all he is important & he is a human. We all make mistakes just because somebody is in jail doesn’t mean they deserve cruel treatment. Locking the inmates up for days may have an impact on inmates mental health but the evil cops don’t care lol it’s like y’all get that job to be [censored]s because y’all just miserable & ugly inside. I’ve been calling everyday even in the morning & y’all send the phone straight to voicemail. What type of sheriff office is this? Y’all need to get this crap under control. Start being more considerate & think about what if that was you or your loved one would you want them to be treated like that ? & why do y’all need to charge so much for the inmates fees when I want to put money on his books. Y’all chose that job if don’t pay enough get a better one but don’t be trying to take out money that’s for our inmates. I can’t stand the police system & I can’t wait for the release of my loved one. Y’all treat them like they not important yes they made mistakes but God forgives. Only miserable people apply to be a cop smh those who find enjoyment in others misery smh. God is watching always remember that. I might have to pop up at the Gwinnett county jail if this prolongs in January & if my loved one is still in there hopefully not.

Police and jail
I am 7 months pregnant with my second child. My firstborn is 13 months old and since living in Georgia (a little over a year now) I have been constantly harrassed and attacked (with many video evidence) by an older woman who is severely mentally ill. She was evicted in the past after months of terrorizing me and my family... she comes back and the police does NOTHING. (Even the judge was wondering why we had to go through an eviction process since she pays no rent, has no lease, was trespassing, and even deemed her mentally unstable) Each time she attacks one of us (3 times while I was pregnant, first time was 2 weeks before I delivered my firstborn son), the police show up and do nothing. The ONE time she was finally arrested was after she attacked my sister with a hammer! My sister caught it all on video as well and they gave her a slap on the wrist and was only charged with "family violence" and was released later that night. She will scream, slam things, throw things, and attacks us right in front of my 1 year old! Police does nothing. Just recently she came home at 4am, drunk, screaming and slamming things (my sister had company over and this woman freaked out over it) she woke my son up and he was screaming and shaking, I had to calm him down and then she came back upstairs and woke him up again while getting in me, my sister, and her bfs faces. Im 7 months pregnant, blocking her from my sons room, asking her to calm down and that she is scaring her GRANDSON, She runs up to me yelling and in fear for myself, my son, and my unborn child I pushed her off and away from me which causes her to fall (didn't help she was extremely drunk). She called the cops and since she had a mark on her face and I didn't I WAS ARRESTED! I was arrested for defending myself against this VERY hostile and dangerous woman. My sister and her bf were witnesses to this altercation and the police had NO interest in talking with them since I was related to one of the witnesses! I have NEVER been arrested before, I have always been a good person and the police were told many many times of the issues here as well as presented with video evidence in the past and they decide to arrest a 7 month pregnant woman because it was a "he said she said" scenario and I wasn't left with any marks. I had to sleep on the cell floor, water didn't work in the cell, and there is an toilet with a camera facing it. Not a single person there cared that I was put there in self defense and was pregnant and I had 1,300 bail and was charged with the SAME charge as the woman who attacked some one with a hammer. This system is messed up! Police are supposed to protect and serve but they've failed me and my family many many times. I'm losing more and more faith in humanity as well as the "justice" system.

Medical treatment and neglect
This is long but I need help and I am grasping at straws at this point. I have reached out to the sheriff, the head of medical at Gwinnett County Jail, the Gwinnett County Police Department, the major of Mental Health at the Jail, the lead Physician at the jail, the Warden for the state correction system, my husbands court appointed attorney…and the...

The cops were very mean in Norcross. After I got verbally attacked by a group of cops I was put in handcuffs, while they continued to treat me terribly and searched my van accusing me of illegal drugs, which I did not have. All I had was my prescription medications from my doctor. They did the breathalyzer test on me and checked my water and I had ZERO alcohol that day. Then they just make assumptions and one of them said "were you using the gps I just took out?" I said no, and that the GPS I was using was out in between the front seats. I said I had two old gps systems and one new gps system in my car. Then when a cop found a phone charger, he said "you have LOTS of phones", and I didn't. I just had one phone.Then when I got to the jail it was terrible. The cops were very mean as well. They keep the rooms so cold that everyone is freezing. They would not give me water all day long, when I repeatedly asked for water. Even the cop wouldn't give me water before I got to jail. Also they did not let me make a brief phone call before I got to jail. Some of the phones do not even work at the jail, , so good luck trying to call to get out of there. I told them I have anxiety medications but they wouldn't even let me have them, since I was feeling very claustrophobic in the back seat, handcuffed with my hands behind my back and even a bug was on my lap and I could not move it off since I was handcuffed. When I told the cop he didn't care. The cop ignored me half of the time when I tried to speak in the cop car. He was driving very fast, and texting to a woman on his phone. I could tell it was a woman since I read his string of texts. What I don't understand is why is a cop allowed to text while driving, yet I'm not allowed to text while driving? I got so thirsty I had to drink out of the sink in the room, since they refused to give anyone water. The first cell had scraps of toilet paper on the floor, was very filthy, and even had discards of people's food from a prior time period. Then they moved us to another cell to "clean the cell", but it wasn't done well when I came back to the first cell. Also I don't understand why there is no hand soap or hand sanitizer in the cell. Using the toilet was done with no privacy, and we couldn't even wash our hands afterwards. Plus the whole cell was dirty, and the benches were so uncomfortable they made everyone's necks hurt.They treated everyone terribly, screaming at inmates left and right. Of course looking out of the cell I see a bunch of cops not really doing much. One cop took a BIG sip of water in a big water bottle right in front of us, suffering with no water. Also, there was hand sanitizer available for all of the cops, and one woman spent 30 minutes disinfecting her desk I was told by an inmate. Also I did not have my cell phone so my phone was left in my van at a wrecking site, and a cop wouldn't let me use the phone coming out of jail. So I had to ask two people in the waiting room to please let me use their cell phones, since I didn't have one. Then they don't even tell me where my van is at, and gave me a list of numbers to call. I called a bunch and my van wasn't there. Hopefully I find the van today. I don't even know yet how much my bill will be to get my van back.

They assaulted me! I had my hands-up in the universal signal of surrender. they tazed me and I flew up 2 feet in the air and back 10+ feet. I continued to request medical care due to high blood pressure and a heart condition for over 15 minutes while wedged in my car door. I was bleeding from my elbow. I was denied medical care, held for 3 weeks in solitary confinement without a lawyer and it has all been covered it up! I still limp and no investigation! police/fire reports don"t match! I never saw a fire truck or ambulance! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e25owq7o7tm

well first off innocent people are in jail now thats the whole point of innocent till proven guilty its jail not prison convicted felons are in prison but the people who are in jail are innocent till proven guilty get into the constitutional rights of others and stop being so quick to judge!
They stole our home through obstruction of justice, corruption, perverted the rule of law, violated my human rights, tortured me and held me until I plead guilty to damaging my home.
I was taken from court on january 4, 2018 and held without bond and tortured in the gwinnett county detention center and would never have been released if I had not pled guilty to damaging my home. I was terrified every minute for 9 weeks and lost over 40 pounds. I would have agreed to anything to prevent from being kept there for years to go to trial like so many others. upon arrival from court to the jail, I was stripped naked and put into a glass cell for 4 days freezing to start to break me. I had emailed the usdoj/fbi begging them to send an agent or attorney to the gwinnett county courthouse to prevent from what was being done to me from happening. I have contacted them many times since being released to reinstate human rights and the rule of law but they refuse for some reason. I was scared to death to go to court, but went anyway to prevent getting in trouble for not doing what I was supposed to do. I was attacked 3 times and could not believe I walked out of there alive.
Previously I had reported these crimes to every level of law enforcement and to this date I don't even have a written report. from the attorney general to the governor even johnny isakson the senior senator in georgia could care less. I have provided all of the evidence to the fbi/usdoj but they refuse to enforce the rule of law. I never thought it would be this hard to report simple fraud and crimes that are all self-evident. but when there is corruption from stem to stern in "our" judicial system this is the result.
As I stood in court at the dispossessory hearing I could not believe that they were going to allow these criminals to break all the lending laws that I had learned about and reported and give them our home. I told the judge that there was massive fraud in the real estate records in this very courthouse and he simply stated, “not my jurisdiction”. then he asked "do I want to leave by the doors to the jail behind him!" this was not the first time nor the last that I was threatened with arrest for reporting crime. the other time that I was escorted out of the courthouse from the recorder's office was when I told 2 deputy sheriffs, "I want to file felony fraud charges" while pointing at my deed. he told me to "call the police". which I did, again. because of this they have enabled the criminals to continue to make families homeless illegally. after I was released from jail the first time I went to the courthouse to inform the chief judge what was occuring and I was threatened with arrest again for trespassing while simply sitting in a chair with my eyes closed and praying.
We had simply asked m&t bank, bayview loan servicing, llc and their “attorney” rubin lublin, llc to provide us with the amount in writing so that we could wire them the money asap to pay in full to reinstate our loan. instead they waited months to provide the amount which more than tripled their verbal amount just months prior. they were adding double and triple our entire payment every month in bogus charges. while waiting on them to provide the amount in writing since there were so many different amounts provided verbally I discovered they had not been posting payments when made and adding thousands in bogus charges every month prior. if the accounting had ever been properly adjusted they actually owed us money instead of the other way around, but they don’t have to follow gaap or the law. to this day m&t bank/freddie mac/bayview loan/rubin lublin, llc have not provided any accouting in writing or our excess funds. why should they adhere to any rules or laws when there will never be consequences for their actions. there was a middle eastern man that attended the court hearings with ronald buice the “straw buyer” and family member of the foreclosing "law firm", llc) that told my wife and I that the "real buyer" was the middle eastern man standing beside him. we have asked the court to identify the real buyer but they refused. this could have easily been cleared-up by providing proof of funds of who paid and when they paid. they had not even recorded a deed but were there to disposes us of our home. later they did record a deed but it did not meet the legal requirements to be allowed to be recorded. I even spoke directly to the gwinnett county clerk of courts and his response to the epic fraud in his recorder's office was, "if you think the fraud in my records is bad you should look at the other counties." I told him I had and I agree with him. (https://www.gsccca.org/) this is besides the fraudulent deed bayview loan servicing/lakeview loan servicing/m&t bank in direct consultation and full authority of freddie mac had already recorded.
To this date we have not been provided the excess funds from the sale of our home nor any accounting from freddie mac, m&t bank, bayview loan servicing, lakeview loan servicing or their "attorney" rubin lublin, llc. the gwinnett county district attorney held me in jail without bail or an attorney and worked with the criminals because they submitted invoices in both their names as evidence. the names of the straw buyer ronald buice and the "real buyer" hamid bakhtiari asked the court to have me to replace shingles, clean the gutters, and even dumpsters to remove our belongings (not vacant). this same district attorney previously had refused to "get involved" with massive fraud in the gwinnett county courthouse.

After I was initially arrested I was held for several weeks and never saw an attorney or spoke to him even though I left several messages at his office. I was not allowed to see my wife or mother because I was being kept on 23+ hour per day supermax lockdown for 3 weeks. finally when I was brought to “court”, which just meant meeting “jonathan aurelia for 15 minutes upon which he stated that if we were not evicted the charges would be dropped because I had the legal right to be there. we went to the courthouse and brought back the documents that stated under penalty of perjury that the day after my arrest the eviction had been cancelled because the home was vacant. I called the attorney and emailed him and never heard from him again until he emailed me 4 months later stating that he had filed paperwork to stop being my attorney. that was a lie because he did not file the paperwork until a week later. "my first attorney" was at my indictment hearing to sit and whisper in the ear of donald geary, the new lawyer appointed to stand-up and state “not guilty”. my wife and I were made to leave the courtroom because it was cleared so that the attorneys and judge could work in secrecy. while waiting in the lobby to speak to donald geary he finally emerged from the closed courtroom to state that he was no longer going to represent me. then joseph l. randazzo, jr. came out and didn’t want my wife to hear what he had to tell me, but she did anyway. he was literally standing in my face cussing me and telling me how he didn’t give a "[censored]" about me, didn’t care to hear any of the facts because none of them mattered. I told him about the fraudulent deed and that the new deed did not meet the state requirements to be allowed to be recorded, that our home had not been sold at the courthouse publicly as required by law because when I inquired about the excess proceeds from the sheriff's office I had been told that our home had been sold privately not publicly as required by law and to get them from the "attorney's", llc. randazzo told me he was a tough guy that he was not going to take anything from anyone especially not me. since I was sitting and he was standing over me and in my face I invited him to sit in the chair beside me he stated, “don’t tell me what to do”. randazzo later sent a letter stating, that I have no legal defense and "... surely be convicted of some or all of these alleged charges and if you are convicted you can fully expect to serve time in jail." (https://www.dropbox.com/s/4a3aprb9ea4fxqf/letter from randazzo.)
Later randazzo took a voicemail I left him stating that if he was so tough and not scared of anything then let’s go to the fbi/usdoj and provide them with the documents and evidence which is all in writing. he took these voicemails to the judge who gave them to the prosecutor and locked me up again and kept him as my attorney even though he was “scared” for him and his family’s safety. randazzo sat smiling at me like a cheshire cat from across the courtroom as I put on the record that sgt culberson in this very courthouse told me our home was sold privately not publicly as required by state law and I would have to contact rubin lublin, llc to get our excess funds. for the record I am a devout pacifist and christian and have never touched anyone in my life. it is impossible for me to write about all of this because I am so emotional and can't believe this has been done to us. randazzo letter to me after he had my bond revoked but remained my "attorney" after he had me put in jail! https://www.dropbox.com/s/cnqwzei353o55vc/randazzo still my lawyer after giving judge and prosecutor evidence against me. jpg? dl=0
(http://www.fakedforeclosuresales.com/august) rubin lublin, llc not foreclosing on a home with video proof in another case. it is against both state statute and county ordinance for an law firm to be a llc but they can and will do anything because the rule of law is null and void. https://law.justia.com/codes/georgia/2016/title-14/chapter-7/section-14-7-2/
If you depend on "law enforcement" or the judicial system to protect your property, family or human rights like I did, you better think again. I am scared they are going to throw me back in jail and/or prison. I started off to report crime but have uncovered massive corruption that is allowed to continue to make families homeless illegally to this very day. they are enabled by every level of law enforcement as all is proved in writing without any input from me. I have offered for years to provide all the evidence to any federal judge or grand jury since the fbi/usdoj refuses to simply take a report and investigate self evident crimes.
This is just the beginning of an article which will focus on the corruption from stem to stern in our judicial system. part 1 of the article can be found at:

Kevin,
It was real nice speaking to you this morning. I don't know why you didn't call back. sorry if I raised my voice on your vm. I am hard of hearing. senator isakson has referred this twice to fbi/usdoj - first time in 2016 before they stole our home>
We are and have been in danger. but for some reason the fbi in atlanta still refuse to simply take a report, investigate the crime and corruption.
Every word I have provided below is 100% true.
If I said this was the mob/mofia everyone would be like, ok we understand this.
But to say freemason's are doing this, sounds crazy.
Sgt culberson in gwinnett county can confirm that she told me that the excess funds for our home were not at the gwinnett county administration building, because my home was sold privately and for me to contact rubin lublin, llc to get our money.
Thank you in advance for your time.
Godspeed,
Jeffrey and susan mathis

Bob,
You pined-on about sitting at fort sill and missing the gulf war. I have given you an opportunity to fight for our country and constitution. to stop this corruption and yet you still appear to do nothing. you had me plead guilty to the same offer they offered to randazzo. you swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution. does your oath to the brotherhood supersede this? every inmate that attacked me were freemason's just like they told me you were.
Oath of office 2015:
Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trq0d3dd4a8
I gave you 3 direct orders.
1. file to reinstate my bail.
2. file to have judge hamil removed from my case. it is in the court transcript me telling them that sgt. culberson in that very courthouse can confirm that my home was not sold on the courthouse steps.
3. provide the evidence that the da is working with the criminals to the fbi/usdoj, but I guess you know they are corrupt also and will do nothing.
All you did is have me plead guilty to something that is not a crime but a property dispute and then you proceed to allow the criminals and corruption to continue.
We just want to be able to leave georgia and be safe. your brothers told me they would kill me or do something to susan. is it outlandish to make such statements when it has been shown that they can and will do anything they want because the law does not apply to them because they are the law.
Are you still my attorney? why am I still having to defend myself? why should I be scared of the government? I cannot believe I walked out of there alive and I guess I am supposed to be thankful? will you help us?
Mark harless is waiting for your call. [protected].
God, father of jesus bless you and fill you and all the officials with the holy spirit to please help us.
Godspeed,

Federal grand jury probes gwinnett sheriff's department:
Https://youtu.be/wnrcsrrlkty
Sheriff Conway sucks. He is just as much to blame for the inmate treatment by the staff as the warden.
The staff at the gwinnett county detention center does a lot more than just discriminate, the inflict emotional and mental harm on inmates, with the approval of the sheriff and the warden. Who can stop the abuse of human rights?
they dont just discriminate against the transgenders..its anyone that has been arrested...innocent until proven guilty?...not in this county... there is tons of corruption in this county it starts off with the local and county police and keeps going thru out the sheriffs office, jail, DA's office...they will do anything to get a conviction...i have seen literary hundreds of people take plea offers just to get out of that awful place...whether they are guilty or not everyone deserves a fair due process and i have only seen a select few get this... my last dealings with them i actually saw a court appointed lawyer do their job...(thank you Tracy Drake) and unnecessary felony charges were actually dismissed...the only problem is that it takes too damn long for the innocent to get their justice...
