of docket
Link to three news stories on Jim Bell's
sentencing
21 November 1997
Jim Bell was scheduled to be sentenced today at 9:30 AM. I called the court's ever-helpful administrative office (1-253-593-6754) for a report and was told that sentencing had been postponed until December 12, 10:30AM.
Other info:
Mail sent to Jim since his request for books has been returned twice that I know about.
Books sent to Kitsap County jail, where he was first incarcerated, was returned marked "not in jail."
After this an inquiry to the court was made about Jim's location and it was learned that he had been transferred to Federal Detention Center at SeaTac, WA. A letter sent there recently was returned unopened, marked "Return to Writer."
The court docket today at 8:53PM (see final entry below) does not list his relocation nor the new sentencing date. However, entries usually appear a day or so after an action.
