seal of the court shall forthwith certify the suspension to the warden of the state
correctional institution, who shall deliver the defendant to the sheriff of the county
in which the defendant was convicted. The sheriff thereupon shall convey the defendant to the jail of the county in which
the defendant was convicted and keep the defendant in custody unless admitted to bail
