[edit] POV and lack of sources

What evidence is there of a "ballooning" county jail population and subsequent strain on resources? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by fyfyfyfy Inserted with Template:fyfyfyfy-->

The article lacks sources. I have tagged the article for these sources. Also, Jails can be as dangerous as state prisons, particularly for women. Inmates held at jails can make weapons out of almost anything sounds like point of view and dare I say original research. The article will be sent to the clean-up taskforce.

[edit] County Jail

Obvioulsy the person asking for the review of this article has nothing to do with the profesion of corrections. I can send you so many articles on over crowding in county jail, I couldn't begin to count them. Inmates making weapons out of just about anything___I have seen weapons that could kill made from paper!! Of course the women working in this kind of setting have to be very well educated in thier field and aware of thier surroundings at all times The inmates that are held in county jails are the very same inmates in the state prisons and federal prisons. the days of Otis checking in for the weekend to sober up are gone. the inmates actually become less of a threat once they are placed in the state prison system. This system allows for the administration to put into place goals the inmates must meet in order to further his priviledge level, therefore ( the inmate) not wanting to upset the cart now has rules and regulation he WILL follow in order to get what he wants. Please excuse my spelling.

[edit] Merge?

Seems to me that this really should be folded into prison. Otherwise, we're getting weird stuff like: residents of Marion and surrounding areas gathered at the city jail as jail gets disambiguated. --jpgordon ∇∆∇∆ 03:40, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
