Fayette County had a program of working the inmates.They would sweep bridges,intersections,pick up debris ,work with the cemeteries, etc.I am not real sure how long they had done this ,but it was halted about five years ago.It seems that while they were clearing overgrowth of a cemetery the adjacent property owner found two of them pilfering through his barn and ordered them off the property never to return,Then only a short time later the inmates were working at the animal shelter and one idiot decided to shoot up animal tranquilizer and damn near died.After that incident they stopped the program.Our current Sheriff has been trying to implement the program again.He states that the reason for these incidents was the supervision.I know that he has spoke with the Commissioners several times on this subject,but they feel as the public does not want this program here. I tip my hat to our new sheriff as he is still working on a program to get community service from certain non violent inmates and knows what a contribution it would be if dealt with properly. WALT
