Keep Bailing

Roger Avery, one of the co-writers of cult hit film “Pulp Fiction” found himself in hot water, off furlough and behind bars in a Ventura County Jail today.

According to the Associated Press, his move to the main jail comes after ‘tweeting’ about serving time in a Ventura County work furlough program rather than in jail. However, it is unclear where his ‘tweets’ were really coming from.

Avary was given one year in jail in September for a car crash in Ojai he caused, killing a passenger and injuring his wife. Avary was not under full-time custody at the Ventura County Jail rather, he was allowed to attend his job during the day and report back to the furlough facility at night and on weekends.

But now, the details of Avery’s second act have changed.  Officials state that inmates in the furlough program are not allowed to work at home. Avery, or #34 as he refers to himself when ‘tweeting’ said he was  ’rolled up’ for exercising his first amendment rights and taken to a higher security facility.

Ross Bonfiglio of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department said that Avary hadn’t spent the night in jail as bail was posted the same day he was arrested.  Avery has now been remanded back to full-time custody at the Ventura County jail.  He was sent on Thanksgiving Day for what is said by Sheriff Spokesman, Ross Bonfiglio to be “security issues.” The division manager for the Ventura County probation department couldn’t comment on why he was removed from the furlough program.
