JAIL/JUDICIAL COMPLEX - What do we need and when do we need it.

Don't ya just have to wonder why we had a need for a Criminal Justice Complex in 1998-99, when the ($10,000) needs assessment study was done by an independent analyst (Not hired by Joe Barker), but we don't today? The analysis was changed by our perennial, inveterate and entrench consultants (Hired by Joe Barker) at the instruction of someone in County Government.

Said another way, Why can't we have what we have a need for, a Criminal Justice Complex? The most effecient and effective answer to our 'problems' by the experts, is just such a "Complex."

The answer lies in the answer to the question, Who owns the land, and doesn't want to sell, that you would need for such a "Complex" in Hardin County, if you have to include our existing Courthouse as an element of the "Complex?"

Answer - A County Commissioner (Office/House) and the Foreman of theHardin County Grand Jury (Parking lot leased to the County).

Go figure.

Just an old thought.
