County Jails
Clip: Season 3 Episode 329 | 7m 46s
Originally Broadcast on January 31, 2014
Prison overcrowding at the state level is trickling down to county jails, who must hold state inmates until a prison bed becomes available. The counties are reimbursed by the state for their trouble, but often that payment isn’t enough to cover the costs.
