His escape record will be perfect if they stay in the cell They told me they have no such policy, no matter how meek the prisoner is. The community service officer for corrections came out 1 day. got there at 10:15 left 1:15. I was promised 4 men and got one. I was promised Comm. Ser. Helpers 4 times, no show. I had to be there to get them out, and then on the one where they showed up, I had to hire me a helper to finish raking the leaves that were left in piles to blow back over the cemetery. The Law sounds good, but so does all the rest we have seen in the last 2 years. The DNR has no arresting powers unless you spotlight a deer. If a cemetery law is Broken you report to the DNR, then you go file charges with the County Prosecutor on your own. Tell him you have reported it, then si back and wait. For what, when???
