Den pátý – pondělí 23. července 2001, 5:53 „Mřížemi v mém okně pronikají sluneční paprsky, venku je určitě nádherný letní den. Už dvanáct a půl hodiny trčím uvězněn v cele o rozměrech pět krát tři kroky a pustí mě odtud až v poledne; osmnáct a půl hodiny na samotce. V cele pode mnou sedí sedmnáctiletý kluk obviněný z drobné krádeže v obchodě – jeho první přestupek a ještě nebyl ani odsouzen – a i jeho zamkli na samotce, kde nemůže s nikým promluvit.
