this just proves once again that since taking over sheriff the inmates run the jail. it wasn't like this when I worked there. I just hope something is done otherwise Jones County has a long 3 years ahead if it with this sheriff and current staff

2nd escapee

Could have bought a real fence with the cost spent on either the SUV, Two trucks, two motorcycles, "Sheriff Alex Hodge" on bumpers", ect.

Could at least have someone making 7 bucks an hour sitting in a car watching that yard. Pays for itself as manhunt aren't cheap and place resources where they'd otherwise not be creating more danger to the public.

I would be suprised if the Sheriff is even trying to find the one still on the run. And i agree the money used to purchase usless toys for his sorry deputies could have been used in better ways. I really hope the people of Jones County will not be fooled again by the so called Sheriff when its time to vote again.
